Funny thing but I've noticed that "salty looking" usually means old-fashioned
and slow. Take a Gozzard or a Cabo Rico, for example. Both are salty but
both are relatively slow. I guess I like the Outbound so much because she
is understated. Could be mistaken for a Catalina at a distance but no
Catalina could even hope to stay with her on an ocean passage nor provide
even a modicum of her seakeeping ability.
