No, actually the friend is real, and he made that comment. He's
possibly the most respected surveyor in New England, so it would not
be right to divulge his identity over a comment that he made in
confidence. But I can believe he didn't mean it to apply to *all*
Benny's.


Oh, so now he only doesn't like SOME Beneteau's. Oh, well...there you
have it, folks.


Some people can read, but obviously you're not part of that select
group.


Nice insult, but I posted your comment, the first in a series of
attacks started by you. Now your trapped in another Bobsprit web. Your
own fault.


Your blunder was repeatedly talking
about various pinching angles without actually considering the optimal
point of max VMG.


BWahahaha. You're truly stupid. I was discussing pinching angles.
Period. Pinching is not going to be optimal VMG, so why would I
consider it at all? It wasn't part of the discussion, until it was
clear that your Cat lost the pointing race.


Didn't you just say that anyone can see through such a blanket
claim?


Nope, because this one is true, and you go on to admit that many Cats
are ugly. I've yet to read or hear anyone call a catamaran pretty. Not
ever.

But it does seem to be an OK light air, flat water day
sailer.


I wonder if you actually believe that the Beneteau is only good for
light air day sailing? Wouldn't surprise me.



So? Do you have a point? I never once said that you or anyone else
should have a cat.


Thank goodness!!!

You've made it abundantly clear that you don't
know enough about sailing to handle a cat, anyways.

Yeah, especially after you already said it's easier to handle than my
boat!

You keep making the mistake of thinking that because picked a cat,
I
think everyone should have one.

Nope, I seriously think only folks over 55 should have one. If you're
that old, congrats on your fine boat!


Most of my sistership use 9.9 hp outboards, some only have one.
Twin
engines are a pain at tuneup time, but they come in real handy
sometimes.

Like when you need to


Sorry, I prefer a boat with good ventilation. I have 16 opening
hatches,

In two hulls plus the center section. My single hull has 11 opening
ports AND a/c. That's better airflow for her length and beam than your
boat. But all those opening hatches don't do a damn thing when your at
the dock writing on a 102 degree day...so we're pretty happy with the
a/c system. We may even add the generator.


never said such a thing.


Dude, you said for FUN you sail the dinghy!!! Must you lie with every
sentence?


You're the one who keeps claiming a boat has
to tip to be fun. Most newbies get over that in a few days.

Who knew that experienced sailors get over the feeling of a monhull
heeling and accelerating in a few days? Jeff, you really are some
sailor!
