again, thank you for the advice and information, dan, wayne. in 2 weeks im
going to socal and spend a couple days looking at various boats. will know
more then. i live in las vegas, and although the lake we have here is quite
large, not many boats over 30 feet or so and all day sailer type craft.
o'day, etc. i have not seen a serious boat at any of the marinas. which of
course is quite natural, as that is what they are used for. one very nice
pearson. dont know how seaworthy they are but it is a very nice boat for the
lake. once again, thanks for the advice. it is appreciated and well taken.
best regards, j.d.
