While I could care less about such things, both Doug and Sloco have
been quick to point out what their boats and cars cost when new.
But my 35s5 cost more new, even ralative to inflation than any of the
sailboats they've owned. In fact, the 35s5 was more expensive that
J-Boat, Tartan, Sabre and so on. Her award winning design, above and
below deck, made her a success worldwide with over 400 hulls built.
Today, the 35s5 sells in the 60K range. Of the four boats we looked at
locally, three are sold and two that I know of sold for more than we
paid! We probably own the nicest example of the 35s5 in the USA and
we'll keep her that way.
So...per sq. foot/volume we own the most expensive boat here!
And the nicest of course!
