Not as much as you saved on your glasses.

Express saved a lot of money with the single lifelines and cheap bow bulpit!

Looks like an identical twin to a C&C 32 to me.

They are cousins indeed. But the C&C is better built, roomier and better for
cruising.
The Express is faster and can be bought cheaper. If you like sitting on tiller
heads, go for the Express!

I was referring to the obvious double lifelines - you'd have to be completely blind not

to
see them. And pretty stupid too, since you made the same comment a while back and you
were corrected then.

Lots of performance oriented boats have minimal life lines. My builder offers that as

an
option. How about this for security:

Really, Jeff?...the pulpit is not reinforced...just one tube. The C&C is
DOUBLED for and aft.
Note the pic with proper stanchions. Also: An actual helm seat with raised
center.

There are only partial double lifelines and the pulpits are cheap singles.
YOU need glasses!

The Mega? Sure you have the right link?

Yup, and the Mega flopped just like the Express 0.
Point well taken!

It also looks like the Redwing and early 30's had single lifelines and simple pulpits. So
what's your point? It looks like at this size your builder decided to make some boats
with simpler deck gear.

You know nothing of which you speak. Please check these things out before
you ramble on.

SAIL LOCO July 14th 03 01:01 AM

Boobie I keep telling you that you know NOTHING about boats. Cheap pulpit?
It's a custom pulpit made by Klacko. It is a European step thru design where
people usually get on and off the boat from the bow. This pulpit type is quite
common on better yachts when the builder understands his upscale customer is
more sophisticated. Baltic uses a walk thru for example.
Express even chose to go a step further with the full race M model. It's
pulpit has a slot for the genoa to reside when sailing off the wind so as not
to destroy sail shape along the foot.
