If it was just me (and not my wife too), I'd have a Folkboat - and I

I've spent a fair amount of time in a wooden Folkboat. It was one of
the least comfortable I've sailed. I didn't mind too much, but the
owner's wife got seasick thinking about it (which is why I got so much
time in it). I'll admit they have a good passage record for a 26
footer, but its not a boat I could "take off" in. But, give me a
Nonsuch 26 and no ties ...
