Default Who Owns the Nicest Sailboat???

Don't forget, aside from our normal storage, which probably exceeds
yours, we have an entire third cabin, bigger than any of yours, to use
as a guest cabin or pantry.


Don't forget, Jeff, the PDQ is a larger boat overall. It should have
these things, but as I was aboard the 36 I must say I was more
impressed with the space usage on the Gemini (which was much newer I
admit).


The earlier PDQ's were not intended as long distance cruisers and had
less stowage and ventilation. In the mid-90's hatches we added (we
have 16) and stowage was redesigned. The final deciding factor
between the PDQ and the Prout 38 was more stowage on the PDQ. (And
prout was in freefall be then.) Remember, we lived onboard for most
of two years - and we're a family of packrats!
