Not sure what planet you're from, but most of the boats
in every marina I've been in never leave the dock. That's
not cruising.

??? What do you base that specious claim on? I know of some people with
very
expensive cruising sailboats who rarely cruise, but they are clearly in
the
minority. The "sit at the dock and party " lifestyle is found far more
often
with powerboats.

Sure, they're great boats, but they're not usually raced
on the ocean or in protected waters. They're wildly expensive
and weigh more than necessary. Sure they can cross oceans, but
they don't generally. Mostly, they sit at the dock with their owners
sitting on them, and with their owners entertaining their snobby
friends.


You need to get out more. A LOT more.

Agreed...and this has nothing to do with spartan exteriors..still waiting for
that list of builders from Ganzy, but he know's he's busted.

It has to do with people not using their boats... the ones they bought
because
they have great interior space and roomy accomodations. I think you need to
get out more... go visit a marina and ask around if you can find anyone
there.

Right! All those builders I listed...and those boats don't sail??

Bwahahahahaha! Okay Ganzy. I think we can all see that you need to believe
that. Especially when you sail a delapidated daysailor!

Sure they do, but not with all the tons of equipment that you would put
on them. YOU WIN AGAIN!
