Default Bob Crantz was Right!!!


It's not exactly the boat we're looking for, but I'm
half tempted to buy it if for no other reason than to shut Bubbles
up.



Why is that? I like the 41s5 and looked at one for a bit at the time
Suzanne was thinking of a new C&C 99. The 41s5 was more boat for about
the same money. We made the right choice. The 35s5 is plenty of boat
for our daysailing, fast and fun. The interior is just right. The
bigger 41s5 would have been way too much for now and a C&C 99's
performance wasted on our timid sailing with Thomas on board. You might
want something more classic looking, but there is no doubt that a 45s5
sails great and has a wonderful interior. We had one two years ago here
as a long term transient from Germany. Her owner had made Atlantic
crossings with her several times and loved the boat.
