Keep trying, Maxi....but the truth is that the 35s5, 32s5 and 35s7
don't look like other sailboats.

And for that the owners of those other sailboats are eternally
grateful.


Sorry, Maxi, you already wrote that you liked the looks of the 35s5...a
tad late to troll otherwise. Of course I know you're yanking my
chain....what else do we do here?

Very established design = attractive.

Actually I like the CD 30 quite a bit. I'm brokering one right now. The
Catalina 28 doens't look like anything to me. It's the very definition
of a me-too boat. As for the Express 30, I mean no insult to Sloco, but
that thing's got awful lines. It's one of the few boats that still
looks bad under sail.

There may have been a ton, but not anymore. Most were wood and rotted into
oblivion.

I'm on the LIS and there are a lot of those boats with those lines
here; enough that they sort of blend into eachother and you can get
confused as to which is which. That's not to say that they aren't
pretty boats. They are. But if you want a boat that looks different and
sails well....look to a Beneteau 35s5, Swan 36 or even a Freedom 35
with it's cool rig. In you want modern sailing capability mixed with
more classic lines...then an Alerion 28 or 37/38 (either version).
