You can't describe it because you have never done it.

To tell you the truth, I'm not very impressed by the topsides.

The thing that influenced me was the combination of "family
freindly"
accommodation with "performance".


I don't care for that look myself, but I didn't want to offend you.

Don't worry. You couldn't offend me!


Performance wasn't at the top of my list when I was looking, but I got
a good light air boat, which is great for the Chesapeake. I need to
reef early for heavy winds, and my rudder is kinda small ( but shallow
draft was one priority).

Different folks like different boats. I know that my boat is far too
light
for many of the posters here. However, I cannot describe the thrills
involved in sailing downwind with the spinaker up in 34 kts of wind. I
wouldn't swap it for anything.
