Wrong again, Thom. Jeff and Mooron's boats are "better" than mine

Idiot ... Jeff has a catamaran!!!!


Its twice the boat you'll ever have!

Yeah, ... but it's still a catamaran!

A friend had to buy one because his wife didn't like the "tippy" part of
sailing - and she wouldn't let him go out with his friends at the weekend.
What's your excuse? ...... I bet that you are married!!!!

Donal, you need to sail a cat sometime...


Shhhhhhhhh!

I recently got to sail a Gemini 105 cat. Not a big performer, but I was shocked
at how well it sailed. No surprise that Donal doesn't know. Jeff's boat is
twice the quality as Donal's little Beneteau as well.

Funny how RB focuses so much on "quality" instead of sailing ability, because
his boat is rather low quality but is supposed to be a pretty good sailing
boat. Maybe he should get a Fisher and then he can crow all he wants about
quality.

A C&C is is "rather low quality" says Spirt!!! Perhaps he can find ANY link
that indicates C&C as other than one of the better builders around for
production boats.

As expected, you missed the real dis to zero in on the one thing you are
obsessed with: where you stand on the status ladder. If it is anywhere near
as big as your stern ladder, you've got a lot of climbing to do.

IN other words, Spirt was busted again and can't back his statement...again!
Let's see a pic of your boat.

Hmmmm?

Yea, I'm busted, thats' the ticket. Let's see what you've run away from in
just the last 24 hours: your J24 rock star buddy's fleet, your "a J24 could
never broach" statement, your "analysis" of the economy (that was good one),
your lies about sailing to JC and the Jersey shore. I could go on and on, but
why bore the people here with stuff they already know. Who am I? "pic, pic,
pic, pic, pic, pic" RB Chicken!

You could lie and lie. Yup. But all we're left with his picture of my boat
sailing and some sockpuppet who won't even give his real name or show a pic of
his boat.
Yup...you're doing well...at the end of my line.
Still waiting for anything that might indicate you sail, little sockpuppet!

Anomalies
C&C had such market momentum that if it was often possible for it to
produce less-than-perfect designs that still sold well. It also
introduced models with great fanfare that quickly disappeared without
a trace. Here are a mix of barefaced failures and efforts that fell
short of the company's own high standards.

MEGA (1977)
Ford had its Edsel, C&C had its Mega. At the height of its success as
a builder and designer of first-class yachts, C&C produced this
turkey. The concept of a one-design 30-footer at the price of a
25-footer was admirable, but too many cooks - or concepts - spoiled
the broth. By the time C&C had finished making the Mega trailerable
(with 8-foot beam and retractible fin keel) and giving it standing
headroom, a self-tacking jib on a seven-eights rig and a
transom-mounted rudder (with tiller steering), they had a slab-sided
brute that didn't go to weather well. In 1977 the company leased the
23,000-square-foot-shop of the defunct Grampian Boats ostensibly to
build the Mega (but actually to provide an alternate plant should the
Niagara-on-the-Lake facility go on strike, which it didn't), and also
reserved a line at the new European plant for it. Less than 100 were
ever built, and trailerability was probably the single criterion that
led the concept awry. The demoralized design office held its own "what
to do with a Mega contest" - one entry suggested sinking them to make
breakwalls. Custom shop head Erich Bruckmann made the best of a bad
thing by converting a Mega hull into a cruising powerboat. Mega Putt
Putt is still tooling around at eight knots.
