[C38] Maybe a C-38

I've been reading your post with great interest. I'm the proud  owner of a 
C-27 #5966 and am looking to move up and out in my sailing  adventures. The C-38 
has caught my eye. I'm a relatively new sailor, four years  now. I've raced 
(beer can) on my C-27(solo) as well as crewed on a J-22  ("we" have the local 
cup for two years running) I've also crewed on an IP370  across the Gulf of 
Mexico as well as trailered my C-27 to BC (Solo-Gulf  Islands to Desolation) for 
a couple of months this past summer. Now back in  Colorado freezing my buns 
off. Anyway limited experience. I was wondering  what "owners" of C-38's would 
think of having a C-38 for a live aboard  / cruising boat for a solo sailor. 
I'm ready to get off the grid and have  been looking for boats to accomplish 
this goal. BC was great but a little more  waterline would be nice. With my 
limited experience, I still tend towards faster  vs heavier displacement, with a  
heavy dose of conservatism. Any thoughts  would be greatly appreciated.
