No Escape
've got a boat that you would suck Commode Joe's liposuction residue to
own....
Why would I own a boat like a Nordic 30? It's slower in light air and
heavy, does not go upwind as well, has a smaller interior and cockpit,
cheap steering system, no swim platform and it's only charm lies in
it's dated attributes. It's a poor boat for sailing fast, for racing,
entertaining or just feeling the thrill of a modern hull capable of
easily exceeding it's limits...as the 35s5 does easily. It won boat of
the year when released and still wins races.
By the way, we don't have the standard interior. We have the teak
option, most of which is NOT veneer. The interior blows yours away just
as easily as it outsails you.
Sorry...you're PHRF rating is very generous and you couldn't have
sailed faster than my Pearson 30 or C&C 32 in your wildest dreams. The
35s5 is far, far faster and much more fun to sail. Your boat is a
wonderful little cruiser for elderly types, but useless for a family
seeking true sailing fun. You can't even post a SINGLE pic of your boat
showing a nice interior...because it's tired below. You can't find a
single stat on line or anywhere to show us that the Nordic 30 is in any
way capable of being fast. It's a slow boat to China, for old sailors
who are legends in their own minds.

35s5....faster than a Nordic 30, even if I don't put the jib up!
