Hurley 20 Review

My mooring neighbour. Roger,  has a starring role in this months 'Sailing Today' magazine. They have featured his Hurley 20 in a used boat review; with the tag line "Mini ocean crosser or dated death trap".  If you're concidering a Hurley 20 as your next boat, it's well worth getting your hands on a copy.

    Since I read your blog I have tried (many times) to order a digital copy of the mag (I live in Finland) but the technology is not working - as I have an Alacrity I am keen to know the verdict?

    That's incredibly generous of you, a scan of the article by e-mail would also be great for me. I know copyright but after spending a considerable amount of time trying to get the purchase of a digital copy to work I find it hard to feel guilty. My email so you gan get my address is appleby(at)abklinikka.com

    Been googling the Hurley 20 for a couple of days before I found your blog.
    Do you by any chance still have the article? A friend of mine gave me his Hurley 20 because he doesn't have the time anymore.
    Thanks anyway!

    Hi there, funny enough I have the same story as Alexander above :-) The parents of a good friend have proposed to give us their good old Hurley 20 and I was wondering how it was to sail before going into all the logistics. Like the others I've struggled to find the article and if you still have it in pdf, I'd greatly appreciate if you could email it to me yannguillemain@yahoo.fr. Cheers mate!

    my email is jegas70 at gmail dot com
    Thanks
    Jason
