What's wrong with doing something that requires a little brain power? Jeeze Doug, you're losing it, remember what Scotty said, "Remember who you are talking to." Cheers Marty |

Yeah right. IMHO you never actually owned a C&C 32, just faked it.
Here I was...all excited to bash another bad DSK troll, when he writes the comment above. How lame can Doug get? I remember when Doug actually, if bitterly, had real sailing info to offer. Oh well. RB |

A Snark that actually gets sailed would be a better choice than any boat that only gets used as a bragging implement on the Internet. How about a C&C 32 that got sailed more last summer than most boats in this group COMBINED? Face the facts, even with Suzanne pregnant we were out sailing. In fact Suzanne wanted to sail Sept. 2nd, though I kept us close. 9 hours later Thomas was born. For most of you sailing is a hobby, like collecting stamps. For us it's a lifestyle that we continue to expand on. It upsets people like Scotty and Donal to see a family building to bigger boats and plans to sail because they've reached the mediocre height of their sailing experience. Meanwhile, ours is just beginning and will easily eclipse theirs! (See, CN, that's how it's done!) Oh, and....BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! I hate to say it but your drivel is a big step up from what we've seen here lately. What I don't understand is why you keep talking about larger and larger boats when in fact you seem to measure your enjoyment in terms of the number of daysails you do. Pleasure is not measured in terms of the size or value of the boat, but how well suited it is to the type of sailing you do. Since you hardly ever go out for more than 1 or 2 nights, why do you need a larger boat? Our Nonsuch was a perfect choice when we were daysailing and doing overnights - even with a new baby it didn't feel small except when we did a week or two. Our catamaran was the best boat for our long trip, and is pretty good for the 6 weeks we cruise in the summer, but is not a good daysailor. (It does make a good party platform, but it takes hour to get to where we can raise the sail!) For this reason, I keep looking at the smaller catboats as a possible next boat. For now, I'll just renew my membership to a local club on the river where I can take out my choice of dinks whenever the urge strikes. And for the record, you may leave the dock a lot, but there are some of us that actually go somewhere. I've done 2 or 3 trips a year over 100 miles from home, for most of the last 30 years. How many trips of over 4 nights have you done in your life? |

... but still might be a good boat for
us. She's an aft-cabin model. And that affects the sailing charactistics in your opinion? How do you make a connection of any kind with an aft cabin and sailing performance, Doug? I sure didn't. Hmmm? RB |

...We're looking at one
with a wing keel. She's over 100K That's silly, there's several on the market in the 70s & 80s. Or are you going to play bait-n-switch again? You see late 80's C&C 41's in the 70K range? How many and where? RB |

She's an aft-cabin model. That wouldn't be the one at Whitehall, MI, would it? If so, I can give you lots of info about here, including a whole raft of photos, if you want 'em. Bull |

RB Must be the N.Y. price where the seller makes the boob feel good by dealing. There's one for sale in Annapolis right now for $80K and that's with a dealer. |
