Is he trying to convince us, or himself that he's happy with his
current 'stepping stone'. It's not working here.

Scotty, a happy sailor....

Could your memory be that bad. Her insane list of gear was indeed
true. Some of
it I kept, some I sold, some I gave away. It was a real
windfall....new
outboard, spare folding new prop, spare new radios, spare autopilot,
and an
amazing assortment of never used blocks and lines, new clothes. How
about a 500
dollar full body sailing suit that fit Suzanne like a glove? How
about a 1000
dollar Musto suit XXL for me with the tags still on it. Yup. It was
Xmas for a
long time as we dug through her bags of gear. Now add all of that
and much more
to a good C&C 32 that surveyed excellent and "above average
condition" with a
hull value of 36K currently and I paid less than 16K. I spent under
1K
replacing her ports, and doing a lot of cleanup....it was fun and so
is the
boat,

Poor Practice for who?... others?... maybe. That depends entirely on the
circumstances of the vessel and conditions of purchase. In my case it was a
logical decision.

He said he brought a Catalina at the Atlantic City Boat Show.

A bold face lie of great proportions and I don't remember any comments
of approval other than from Nutsy himself, after he admitted his lie.

More logical than having a sea trial if possible? Wrong.

Katy was among the people who nodded approval. Scotty went super nova.

No I didn't.

Express 30?? Good Grief!

You're saying a Cabo Rico 38 is faster than an Express 30?

No, I think he's saying it's about 350 times better in nearly every respect. It
might still beat the Express over a long passage. The CR 38 is not a slow
cruising boat.

I won't be surprised when he proudly boasts that this devil baby of
his is just another sick troll.
