Nonsense. Car marketing departments always claim their cars have "roll
cage
construction". It's essentially puffery.


I'm afraid you're wrong about this. Not only does the Subaru have
integral roll members, it has more than one. It also has a frame much
stronger than the original Outback chassis, since they plan to add a
lot more HP down the road.

My 1986 C&C has the original glued in windows and they have never
leaked. I've
had two knockdowns onto the starboard side.

My C&C 32 required all new windows. The buyer (when we sold her) had
looked at a lot of boats at many had window issues. Fixing those
windows, which have no external flange on bracing, was a common topic
on Sailnet for years. Steve's Express also required new windows. It's a
common issue on the C&C boats and one I'm happy to leave behind.
BTW, aprox 70% of cars and SUV's in production can support 2 times
their weight or better on the roof.
