Loco, why are you arguing with Bubbles? Don't you realize he's nuts?

By the way I always liked the Olson 911S too. I like the light wood interior,
better head than the Express and the eliptical foils. It's a newer design than
the Express therefore they were selling for more than I wanted to spend at the
time. Not many around.

Yep. The Olson sailors all diss the 911 and the 34 since they are Schumacher
designs and most were actually built by Ericson. Kind of a shame they didn't catch
on better, I don't think there's any class of them anywhere. Theres a 34 around
here that has been converted for cruising, when out casually daysailing it runs
rings around most of the PHRF fleet racing.

Doug, which interior do you prefer?

The Express has a usefull interior designed for real
passagemaking with storage behind the furniture and a real seaberth.

Imagine You're so crazy that in the face of those pics you'll actually claim
that your boat has a nice interior.
I've posted pics of a nice C&C32 and J30 interior. Funny how there's none for
the Express 30...or the 35 for that matter, which also looks cheap!

You seem to have lots of time to waste. Do an internet search for an Express
interior. You found time to locate a photo of a brand new late model J30
interior that had never been used. I don't have any interior photos. Unlike
you I have better things to do than take self fullfilling pictures of my boat's
interior. I take sailing pictures in the BVIs.

There is very little online info for the Express boats. Even less in the way of
pictures. These boats have generated little interest.

Any time you deal with RB you need a reality check. J30's have gone "upscale" in the last
few years. We can only speculate on the reasons.

Here's some pics of a J30 from the same era as the Express.

The Express sure looks good compared to the early J30's!

Those J30 pics still look nicer than the Express. I can show you BAD J30
interiors as many of them were sailed hard. Doesn't prove a thing. I'm still
waiting to see ANY Express Interiors that don't look cheap.

It does boggle the mind, doesn't it?

Well, the Express has slightly less elbow room but IMHO a much more practical & comfortable
cabin for cruising.

Actually, if I were seriously shopping for a 30 foot racer/cruiser I would pick the CS-30 (and
in fact almost bought one, before we settled on the tugboat). Its a bit slower but has an
excellent layout above & below decks, strongly built, and is IMHO better looking overall.
