I never said that. Go ahead and google up what I actually did say, it should
provide some entertainment (which is what you're really after). Your memory is as
bad as everything else about you.

Yeah right. That's why 1- you never go sailing
2- you are proud of th many ugly excresences, such as the stern ladder, mounted on
the boat you claim to own
3- you are often bragging about how little you paid for the boat you claim to own.

A simple troll. Bye, bye, Doug.
You've really fallen far.

With this type of childish discourse, there's little value in attempting to
engage you in a real discussion.
You DID say you wouldn't have done it again AFTER you found build problems.

Bye, bye, Doug.

No, Bubbles, I never said any such thing.

Here is a reprise of what I *did* say: that Hunter has poor QA, and that I'd
advise other boat shoppers to look very hard in certain areas before buying
one.

If shopping for a trailerable cruiser within a certain weight range, I would
definitely buy a Hunter 19 again. It is a brilliant design, nothing else comes
remotely close. In nine years of cruising with a club of trailersailers, we
never saw any boat that was as quick & easy to rig, launch, & retrieve; never
saw anything remotely as comfortable, very few with anything approaching it's
sailing performance, and none with it's practical features like the transom
gate. Our boat was usually where the group gathered and usually the one
everybody else followed.

Of course, since you don't actually cruise, you have no apprecation for
practical values.

When are you going to answer Scotty's question about what trailerable boats of
comparable size & price to the old Mac26 sail better & have more room?

Didn't you catch John's post? There IS another boat that does all the Mac26X
and M and it's a better boat to boot.

RB

And it costs how much?

Scotty said size/price range. Though similar in size, the basic boat package
for the Mast(sailaway, trailer, no motor) is almost $46k, which is nowhere
near the price of the 26X, which was priced well under $20k for the
boat/trailer minus motor. IIRC, the 26M was priced well under $20k also.

$46k for that? I could by a fleet of Seidelmann 30s and start a charter co.
for that amount.
