Alastair Buchan, author of Short-handed Sailing, crossed the Atlantic twice in the Hurley 20 MINTAKA.

He circumnavigated Britain single-handed. After taking the Hurley 20 through a Force 8, he said she was "a wolf in sheep's clothing".

"All the little Hurleys have stood the test of time and built up a well deserved reputation as fast, seaworthy yachts. Their virtues far outweigh their faults".
