Hey, Sloco thinks platforms are a cruel joke! They make the interior
smaller and the 35 foot boat that loses a foot or so is a cheat! Then
again, Sloco says the interior should be secondary! Or does he mean the
swim platform isn't a functional part of the boat???
I mean, damn! He's right! Look at this POS Baltic claiming to be 142
feet when it's really 140!

And don't kid yourself! The new Swan 46 has a foldaway platform that
still eats up 1 foot and a half. That crappy Swan is barely 45! Same
thing for those cheap Tartans!

Damn them! Damn them all to hell!!!!
Wanna really truly see injustice at work? Look at this Sabre 386 with
an even bigger swim platform than my 35s5!!! Outrageous. I think that
she's around 36 feet!!! Send up the Bat Signal!

Sloco's thinks all boats should have squared off ends and plumb bows so
he has room to pack his issues of Cruising World, Motor Trend and
Barely 14.
Bwahahahahahahahaha! Sloco sure knows boats!!!!

35s5...the best boat here PERIOD!
