you like your boat for all the WRONG reasons. Looks, are what really
count. Nothing else matters, as long as she looks good. Here's a quote for you to ponder, in your pond. ''I've yet to meet anyone who made a sailboat choice with zero regard for the look of the vessel.'' "Flying Tadpole" wrote in message ... But they all relate to comfort and the little things that become a real pain as one gets older--things like not being able to stand up, or not being able to raise knees in a coffin-like bunk. It's still primitive compared with Thom's pilothouse luxury, but then its warmer down here... -- Flying Tadpole ------------------------- Squareboats! not updated of course... http://www.ace.net.au/schooner/sbhome.htm Learn what lies below the waves of cyberspace! http://music.download.com/internetopera |

I did a ton of research and spoke to owners before buying, especially looking at performance and quality compared to the P30. I even asked Steve and others here. You asked about your boat and got some warnings...all ignored because you wanted a "bigger" boat for pennies. I spoke to Bart yesterday and he agreed that you own a poor boat. (Sorry, Bart!) I understand your frustration. RB |

Well Bart did say he knew more about women than boats , and after reading his recent rants about women, which he doesn't understand at all, I would say he is some what less than an expert. Could you ask Bart his opinion on my wife? I understand frustration. RB |

anyone who made a sailboat choice with zero regard for the look of the vessel.'' Good reason for a new thread. Let's see how wrong you are. RB |

Forget it Joe, he just doesn't get it.
Scotty, a happy sailor. "Joe" wrote in message om... (Bobsprit) wrote in message ... Scotti Potty brought up an interesting point, even if it was in an attempt to troll. Is your Scotti Potty lame BS a trolling attempt? How many of us are on our "last boats?" I on my favorite boat, so until I find one I like better to suit my uses it will be my last. While many of us are happy with our current boats, we can easily see changes and expectations that can't be met by our current boats. My next boat will be 36 feet long....after that I may go even larger. Can't you make up your mind? My last boat will probably be something much smaller, but sweet, such as a H28 or even a smaller Nonsuch. So...How many of you are on your "Last boat" and if you're not (most of us aren't ready to roll over yet) what boat do you see finishing up on? I think Im happy with my current boat. What does that have to do with being ready to roll over? After 9 years of sailing and motor sailing and motoring my boat I bet I can make it dance around your latest stepping stone. I know what to expect from my boat and I know what it expects from me. If I stumbled into a few extra million dollars I might build a re-production of my boat in nickle copper to cut down on on the painting but it would be laid out the same way, same size, same power, engines and sail configuration.
