The biggest little boat in the harbor

West Wight Potter 19, Literally the biggest little boat in the harbor. This one has a head, small kitchenette, could sleep 4 very cramped, has a giant canvas cockpit house, boom tent, dodger, 8 stays, giant anchor and large fenders, A/C, and satellite TV for your viewing pleasure. Running rigging is 1/2 inch lines, and it also has a bimini.

I am sure I am missing a few points, but there is no doubt this is the biggest little boat in the harbor being more well equipped than some of our larger boats.

I would say it is equipped to never leave the dock. The day my (currently non-existent) satellite TV dish gets setup prior to my main sail being bent on is the day I give up and buy a motor boat.

On any size boat....The more crap you put into it the less likely it will leave the dock.

The more electrical demand the worse it gets.

The thing that I am seeing with a smaller boat is that simpler is better.  There is something about simpler things that makes sense.
