It's true. He's one of many here that love their boat. While many of us
would like something different, it's a bit like comparing a pretty girl
on the street to your partner, she may may not be quite a 'luxurious' or
'fast' but she's all you really need and you love her -even for her
imperfections.

Funny, we don't hear Neal talk of his ''next boat'', or call his Coronado a

When Neal types such things it only makes it even more clear that he's no
sailor.
Add to that the following: That he chose one of the cheapest boats around

and

you get the whole picture. A real sailor would have chosen a Cape Dory 30,

any

alberg or Bristol or even an old Pearson Wanderer. All better in every way

and

proven designs. Instead he lives on a tiny cramped vessel known to be poor

in

nearly every regard anc quite comely as well.
