Here we go again....

For about 100K or so....are there any Pilothouse boats that have
reasonable good speed and light air performance? I've researched a lot,
but there are virtually none.

RB

Have one custom buildt.

Robert,

Here's an excellent, affordable boat for you:

For some reason, whenever I see one I think of you.

With a 50 hp engine, it qualifies with "good light air performance."
With a SA/Disp of about 7, it needs something. Actually, being able
to power at 12 knots doesn't sound bad, as long as you don't confuse
this with a sailboat.

A boat that reminds you of Bubbles? How about the ice cream truck?

Yeah, what he said. Besides, it can't pull a skier like a *real*
sailboat, the MacGregor 26X!

An SA/D of *7*? That's calculated in hexadecimal, right?

No matter what boat Bubbles buys, it will only be an extension of him. Since
there's no use in buying excess capacity (performance or otherwise) , the
Nimble will fit him like a glove.

Bob and Suzy went shopping, shopping for a boat
"It must have form over function, it must do more than float!"
"It must have four hanging lockers - for all my nice new clothes,
A washer and a dryer, a microwave and stove!"

"It must have room for my stereo and speakers 4 by 4
Room for the bigscreen tv, my telescope and more!"
It's on this boat that we must fit all that we do own
At home we'll be, when we set to sea - my castle and a throne!"

"Oh Bobby dear, don't you fear that's there's room naught just for friends?"
"Three heads there'll be, to sit and pee and staterooms end to end!
And Suzy Q, just for you, to save you from sun and splash
A pilothouse, with windows large, and samite curtain sash!"

Bob and Suzy went looking, looking at the show
Every boat they inspected, topside and below!
"This cabinet is ill fitted, the carpet's much too green!
The berth's too short, the galley's wrong - the oven don't self clean!"

It's perfect! Available without a mast, Bob doesn't know what one is used for
so why waste money on one?

But money is no object for Bubbles. He can easily afford a bigger mast
than all the masts on every boat you've ever seen, all put together! How
many times does he have to tell you?
