<< Dave,

I sailed on one a couple of times in the 70's. Belonged to
a friend. Nice boat, my impression we were always in danger
of turning turtle, but I didn't know anything about
sailboats (and still don't) and I do remeber it was very
windy when we went out. My friend laughed at me a lot
because I was holding on so tight. He loved his Ensenada.
I don't remember much about the boat as I was only aboard
for short sails a couple of times.

Ensenada 20 is seen on "Three's Company" closing or openning credits once in
a while.

I had opportunity to check one out. It seemed like a round bellied tough lil
boat with a cabin slighly larger than a Potter 19 and a deep draft keel. She
sat way up 8' in a trailer and that was main reason I did not buy. Seemed
like a pain to launch and haul.
