You have to try to understand Bobsprit's position. He has never owned a
boat that he felt proud of. So he keeps knocking other peoples' boats.

Not true.
I rated Mooron's boat as among the best in this group. While I don't like the
Express it's also well built. Skitch' IP 31 is a great boat, even if heavy and
slow. Jeff's PDQ is an excellent boat.
I only bash a boat that I know to be of poor quailty. This has been proven
again and again, so why claim otherwise?

Damn, that was devastating, eh?!
