Default What owners say

Would any of this stop you from buying this model of boat?

Let's see...you mean the hinges on the cockpit lockers that need to be
replaced with heavier ones? The boat I'm buying already had it done.
Or how about the wiring? Already redone to a higher spec on my boat.
But you didn't do much research at all....The 35s5 also had a problem
with aft cabin liners coming down....already professionally redone on
my boat. Some furlers had to be recalled due to tensioning
problems...already fixed by Beneteau on my boat.
Boat doesn't back up well with folding prop...I have a maxi folding and
the original fixed prop to try.
Water supply pump is easy to get to...but the water heater isn't.
Every owner seems to love the boat. Only one said "maybe" then
explained that their boat was abused when they bought it. My survey
shows "above average, bristol condition, showing a high degree of care
and pride of ownership."
I'll post a scan of the survey page on my site when we close.
