Yea, I was going to comment on that. I didn't know they had sail boats in
the show on that side of the state, I woulda been there.

Well, they had SOME sailboats. In Detroit they have zip. They have an
outdoor show in the summer with sail, that's all.

Went to the Grand Rapids Boat Show last night....it's a mixed breed show,
with tons of power and a paltry representation of sail. We looked in
particular at a Beneteau 38, a Catalina 38, a Hunter 41, and a Hunter 35.
There sure is a lot of plastic in them thar Hunters...and that traveler
arch....ugh....ugly. I hate to say it but the Catalina was the best boat
viewed. Beneteua, my favoritest in the past, has lowered their quality.
I
would not have traded any of the boats viewed for Chanteuse. The boat
that
I actually fell in live with was a Com-Pac Picnic Cat.....sweet little
thing...pricey, though. Didn't even bother looking at the power things...
