Hello Bob The Hardy 18, 537 and 20 do not sail to windward . If you want to sail stick to a Snapdragon type.

I am planning to buy a small sailing boat. My last one was a snapdragon 21 which i was very happy with.However I like the look of the small Hard m/s 18 and 537. What sort of sailing performance could I expect? Will either make to windward and is the long keel or bilge keel a better sailor.Thanks Bob Crawford. PS If there are any reasoably priced ones for sale in scotland please feel free to contact me @ tombobb@hotmail.co.uk
