Gday all!

Hay um...ive just about finished a total rebuild on an old hood 23.

Deck is now solid and dry and mast step cut out and renewed...all rotten ply stripped out and re done though entire deck.

was a massive... massive job.

Cut out the head and the galley to make the bunks go all the way to the bulkhead etc.

was dark and cramped....now its light and cramped he he lol!!

anyway.....

the boat has not moved yet, and i have never sailed a hood 23...just our farr 6000.

are they nippy?...are they slow?...weather helm?....stable?....do they point?

im excited about the maiden voyage....just wondering what to expect???

anyone??

thanks so much guys.
