Hi Lisle, When I bought my 30-1 I’d mostly sailed only J/22s, Capri 22s, and a Merit 25 for about five years beforehand (other people’s boats). Plus a couple week-long charters on a Beneteau 505 and a Jenneau 45 in St. Vincent and the Grenadines (captained charters, but I helmed all week).

No question, the effort (I mean time and money) to upkeep a bigger boat is proportional to a square of LOA, but the ease of maintenance disappears at around 24-25 ft. (i.e. once you have to deal with an inboard engine and all the systems (plumbing, electrical, etc.), the difference is not that

We were similar.  We started out with a 1969 Southcoast 23 as our first keel boat.  We decides that we needed a little bigger boat when we needed to raise sails to get out if the harbor in South Haven, Michigan because the 4.5 HP outboard couldn't overcome the waves to go out and turn around.
