I think this is the discount model that comes without a mast. I've heard that the upwind performance really suffers from this arrangement.

When at this show I tailed the Hunter salesmen as they walked the show. Everyboat they went on, I went on. When it came to board this Com-Pac 27 in the photo uploaded I said nothing and listened to all they said among themselves...the fly on the wall heard the Hunter guys heaping praise on the construction, fit and finish of the Com-Pac 27. Truly a beautiful vessel.

I simply can not fathom the 'space ship' look of the dog house on top of the deck. Not my cup of tea. It's probably an OK boat but not a traditional OK boat. I do like the port/starboard double birth under the cockpit sole [soule?].

Kind of space ship looking.

Where the mice run amok.

Very sparse and unappealing looking.

Who puts sky lights in a dog house?

And cuties like this on board. Are we sailors or vacationers?

And then this ugly rear end...

Verses...The Com-Pac 27 here is it's older original layout. Nice.
