Yep.

Did you miss the word "larger" in there, Bubbles? For the
purposes we put it to, I have not seen a better boat than
the Hunter 19.



"either of our modest little
boats is worth more, and easier to sell to boot, than Cap'n Bobsplit's
mighty
P30 with it's equally mighty Atomique 4."

Ghost sold for just under 14K and I kept some of the electronics. I
paid 9.5 K for her.


Uh huh. Expect us to believe that, with your long long
record of lying? Registration and bill of sale, please?

BTW if not lying, you confirmed that what I said was true.


"OTOH the C-22 has a far better reputation than the Hunter, is far
roomier, has
far better resale value, and on average is really better built."


Prodcue the quote please. I never said that because it's not
true. The H-19 is slightly less roomy but much more
comfortable then the Catalina 22.


Holy CRAP!!!!


"And the Hunter 19's cabin is probably 95% as roomy and
comfortable as the P30 anyway. "


Can you prove this to be false? Anyway, this also doesn't
sound like a quote from me because I have never been
interested in comparing a Pearson 30 to a Hunter 19.

When you trailer a Pearson 30 over 300 miles for a weekend
cruise, and pull one up to the beach for a Saturday night
cook out, then maybe we can compare the two.



MORE TO COME!!! And remember, this is the REAL DOUG, the King of
Keels!!!!


I'd would really like to see the headers from what you claim
are quotes. Is there a reason you left them off? Like your
spur-of-the-moment quote from "a Seaward owner"?

Bubbles, you're nuts.
