It is an excellent article. Suggest obtaining reprint rights for C320 website as it will be valuable for future owners too

For anyone thinking of offshore sailing in a Catalina 320, you might want to
take a look at an article in the November 2008 issue of Blue Water Sailing
titled A Passage to the Islands. Alessandra, a C320, was sailed from St.
Simon's Island to St. Thomas, a 1,300 mile nonstop journey, by a
professional delivery crew. The article is quite detailed regarding the
320's shortcomings for blue water sailing and ends with faint praise: ."it
will certainly be a good boat for weekends sailing around the islands. That
is, after all, her intended purpose."
I am going to scan the article for saving. If anyone wants a copy, let me
know. I'll collect names and send it out in about 2 weeks when I return
from a trip to Lake Tahoe.
