Are you saying that the 34R is not a winning boat? Are you aware that the XL
is
that design outfitted to a cruisable version?

**** you don't even know anything about the boat your (?) buying. The XL stood
for Extra Light. It was C&Cs attempt to combine some of the features of the R
with features of the cruise model to make a better dual purpose boat. A race
boat. I know the boat. Also I never said it wasn't a "winning" boat. Go back
and read again. You always have to do that lately. I said it (in any version)
has never won high point on the Chesapeak Bay. A tough feat to accomplish.
But hey Express 30s have won the award 5 times and a 35 has won more than once.
Maybe the 34R, XL or whatever - has been a winner in your little corner of the
world. The Chesapeak is pretty competitive. Bring that thing down here. Oh
that's right you only "race" people who don't know they are racing.
