Thanks - I like it a lot. It's a compromise - my wife wanted
something like a Grand Banks or Silverton. EEWWWWWW!!!!


===============================================

Big difference between a GB and a Silverbayarver...

Personally I still miss my Bertram 33 but I'll get over it.


Well, it's a long story, but the short of it is that "we" needed to
have a boat which "we" could use for short trips to the Islands. "We"
really needed something with more creature comforts for those trips
than was provided by the Contender CC. So "we" wanted to sell "our"
boat and purchase something like "that boat over there" which was a
Silverton something or other. Or "that boat over there" which was a
Grand Banks.

I convinced her to go with this as she's not much of a First Mate on
fishing expeditions. So now "our" boat has morphed back into "my"
boat upon which she will occasionally deign to grace with her
presence. As long as she get's to go to the Islands, she's fine. :)

Later,
