Wow, thanks to all the good folks on both the Mercedes and Vanagon listservs for the great info! Sounds like both the 300TD and Vanagon should be able to tow a small daysailer (sub-23'), at least for short distances), which is what I needed to know. I got some initial and subsequent negative feedback on the MacGregor boats, so does anyone have some specific suggestions for a small daysailer? Must be able to sleep four (2 adults 2 kids), preferably with a small head and still be light, maneuverable and trailerable.
