Jeff, I'm sorry you don't like the 35s5.

I'd probably love the 35s5 if a doctor told me I could never
sail more
than 10 miles from my slip.


Haaaahahahahahah Ohhhh that's sooooo funny !!!!!

hee heeee

The 35s5 has discontinous rod rigging!

Hey Bubbles, do you even know what this is?

35s5 deck and bulkheads are honeycomb to save weight!
Rudder stock is epoxy corposite!

"Epoxy composite" could be good or bad. Actually, if properly done, a
molded composite rudder post is stronger than SS. I'm not saying that
I'd trust Beneteau to do it, but it can be. And honeycomb core is
standard in airplane construction, are you saying the FAA gives
commercial type certifications to planes that are likely to fall apart??


35s5 fitted with new Dutchman system!

Yuck.

Counter tops are marble!

And this is an advantage? Why?

Yuck again... I don't like marble countertops. They're fragile & heavy,
and dull your knives terribly. But I guess they're impressive to boobs
like Boobsie.

All lines and furler below deck!
So that the jib is a deck sweeper that gives no visibility from
the
helm? And since the furler hole is right under the anchor
roller,
doesn't mud from the anchor just fall into the furler? Of
course,
you'll never actually use the anchor, will you?

Halogen and LED lighting!
whoop!

The swim ladder FOLDS flush into the platform!
Two zone AC and heat for aft and main cabin!
Why? Haven't you figured out you can't use it under way?


Bunks sized for adults over 7 feet long!

You keep saying that, but in the drawing only one corner of the
berth
is over 6'6". And neither "stateroom" has enough space to
actually
stand up.

BTW, you should keep a fire extinguisher in the cabin, since
the door
opens to the galley and you have no other way out. Our
daughter's
cabin is in the same location, but she has a full sized escape
hatch
over the bunk.

Which brings up another problem: you claimed 7 hatches but
there are
only 2 deck hatches that can provide ventilation, and 4 are
small side
portholes, and one opens into the cockpit, fer gawd's sake!
That boat
will be stifling in the summer! No wonder you need A/C! Good
luck
trying to sleep at anchor with one tiny hatch opening into the
cockpit!

Headroom over 6'4!!!

But you only have about 3 sq. feet of floor space!

Owners report easily outsailing their ratings!

Isn't that a contradiction? Kind of like being too tall for
your height?

Actually, Doug...I had rod rigging on the C&C 32. This will be more
tuning, but I have a racing buddy who weighs 120 lbs to tune the rig
and she really likes doing it.

No record of failures on this model. Perhaps I'll be the first.

Yuck again... I don't like marble countertops. They're fragile &

I agree, but we also have nice wood cutting board inserts. The marble
is pretty and Suzanne likes it.

Jeff knows this. He might also know that the 35s5 is far more advanced
in design than his fat cat.

Did You Know?
 

I've sailed two cats and
I just don't care for them.


Wow, that many? I've been on lots more that I didn't like. So, it
was a Gemini and what else?


Gemini and PDQ. I actually liked the Gemini better, but it was also
brand new. Both were dull to sail. We had better wind with the PDQ and
it was fast off the wind, but it just felt like nothing. We could have
been in a motorhome. Very little feel. Suzanne hated it, and my J24
racing friend put it perfectly..."Why would you ever want to take this
out for a daysail?"
Sorry, Jeff. We like to sail too much to own a fat cat.
