wind strength.


No, only YOU err on the plus side.
Liar, liar!

You think Hunters are better than Benetoes?
S


I wouldn't own either. They are the botomm of the barrel


Bill, I actually think Hunter is doing much better with quality these days, but
you're right about Beneteau. They were among the first boats I was warned
about. Donal's boat might be a better boat as it was built elsewhere.

RB

I imagine Yugos are better than they were a few years ago, as well. The
question
is, "Better than what?"


Better than the current crop from Beneteau and on par with what I saw from
Catalina and Bavaria Yachts. The Hunter's like Horvath's were built badly, no
doubt about it, but Hunter seems to have cleaned up their act somewhat.

I wonder if young Thomas will agree with his dad?

Will Thomas feel that his father's old "stepping stone" gives him any
street cred?

I can just picture the scene (in a few years):

Thomas: "That's my dad's boat!"
Schoolfriends: "Bwahahahaaa. It's an old wreck. It's only a stepping
stone"
Thomas: "My daddy says that it is better than a new Hunter.!
Schoolfriends: "Bwahahahaaa."
.......[Thomas runs home in tears]

Bavaria Yachts, Nutsy?

Have you walked thru one of them without cracking you head? There is
more headroom in most American 22 footers, than in their 35.

Nutsy, you have taste for S--t

You're off topic again, Tom. We were talking build quality, not quantity or
boats "we like. I don't recall bumping my head on the 38 below.

That doesn't make any sense. My boat is nearly new.





Pathetic Earthlings! No one can save you now!

Sorry, Donal. I was sailing most of the day aboard a friend's J29. Now, what
was that?
