Captain Neal, You're an authority!!!
 
But my next boat is better and faster than yours. I'm just turning 41. My
stepping stones are part of a learning curve that I enjoy and it outpaces
yours.


Your stepping stones do NOT outpace mine.

I'm afraid they have. The 34XL is more boat than you own. Faster, fancier and
better built. By the end of next summer I'll have taken two good long cruises.
Meanwhile I've sailed far more boats than you and have inside dope on boats
that you'd have to pay to get!

Sorry,

RB

How much does a Baltic cost? Why can't you get one within two years?

The Baltic I want is aprox. 700K on the used market. It doesn't belong on the
LI Sound. Buying one now is a complete waste of a fine boat, given limited time
with my wife in school. But when we move to the Chesapeak, it'll be a good
choice. The Baltic is not our only choice. We're also sailing a far less
expensive Tartan this summer. That's another excellent sailing vessel that is
far better built than your toy.

You may not know it, but you are at the peak of "achievement"
years.


Says who? My father wasn't a millionaire until he was 53. He wasn't
dissapointed.

If you ever want to own a Baltic, then you must go for it NOW.


At least everyone can see that it's you who's consumed with material things. I
wouldn't buy a Baltic now anymore than I'd buy a snowmobile to use in Queens. I
couldn't even use it enough to make it happy.
You truly don't understand boats at all.

Do try and not place yourself outside a well lit and clearly marked harbour
entrance at night until you learn the fundamentals of tides, navigation and
have an inkling about basic operation of your electronics.

Oh Yeah... don't forget the batteries this time either Eh! :-)

Would that be a Baltic 50 with an 11 foot draft? Right, that's a good boat for the Bay!
