Hey, at least the old man is happy with his choice, he loves the old boat
regardless what you

How do you know this? You seem willing to believe everything Neal types.

Oh, okay!

RB

You should check with the professor (Neil) before you jump to conclusion,

I think his affection for his old boat is quite obvious.

I think it's forced. You are guessing. Neal is not stupid and the Coronado is a
very poor boat. Snap out of it. He sails her because it's the best he can do.
Fine. Like Donal's Beneteau it's a low end boat.
Maybe he's happy with it, but if he was, he wouldn't need an internet shrine of
his own making. It's pathetic. And so is your easy compliance.

RB

It may be a low end boat, and I know Neil is not stupid, but it serves his
purpose. He could have gotten many other boats, in this market for simply
asking including a couple of C&C's, I am sure. They may have been junk at
the time, needing much work, he chose that one, and has laboured much over
it. There is in all of us a pathos, but this is not one of Neils, nor do I
think mine. Don't confuse my respect of others feelings with compliance, it
most certianly is not. Neil's feelings may be forced, but we have no way of
knowing that for sure. We only know he has put enough work into her to make
any sane man proud, regardless of his starting point, using obviously
limited funds. We sail 20 year old boats because of cost. Alden, Hinkley and
the like would be everywhere were cost no option, even in your slip I think,
not a 20 year old defunct Canadian middle range production boat.

So if we have no way of knowing, what and who are you actually defending?

Capt

I am defending no one, Neil is capable of defending himself. I am trying to
teach a pig to sing, the pig just hasn't gotten ****ed yet.

No. If it were forced, he wouldn't have put some much
obvious time and effort into improving her.

Neal clearly loves his boat. That much is pretty clear.
