Sorry, but that's not true when your talking 35' "racer/cruisers" and
isn't the 35s5 a racer cruiser?


Nope, and Beneteau did not promote her as such. In 1990 a C&C R series
was a true racer/cruiser. I have the English brochure which is quite
evenly divided in listing the 35s5's cruising and performance elements,
She won boat of the year in Paris and in Germany. Her interior was
built overseas and shipped to the USA and is higher quality than
ANYTHING else we looked at including Tartan, Sabre and C&C. You KNOW I
wanted to prefer the C&C.
I have not heard anyone list her as a racer cruiser and we certainly
did not buy her for racing. If I had any real interest in racing I'd
buy a boat that could compete...like a J105, which can take on other
105's here.
My boat is faster than yours, Sloco. She's also more comfortable, nicer
to look at, more modern and paid for. We have a fast cruiser and you
don't even have a proper enclosed head.
Let us know if you ever buy a nice boat.
