The Herreshoff 31 cat ketch 31 is a light sailboat which is a reasonably good performer. It is very stable / stiff and has a low righting capability if capsized. It is best suited as a day-boat. The fuel capacity is originally very small. There is a short water supply range.
This boat has an average score but ranks in the top half. It might be a good tradeoff.
