You sound more like a marketing brochure than an experienced cruiser. You
have one berth, that because its measured diagonally, is 7 feet on one
side. And you can't roll over without whacking the overhead. Are you
claiming that the V counts as a 7 footer? You brag about A/C without
considering that it has terrible ventilation. A tiny galley, a small
fridge behind the stove. No counter space at all, unless you cover the
sink. The head isn't small, but it doesn't have a shower. My old 30
footer even had a separate shower. BTW, is there any ventilation in the
head?

But that's OK, Bob. Since you never actually cruise, you'll never miss
these things. It pretty obvious every time you brag about the A/C that
what you really wanted was a nice place at the dock to hang out and watch
the real sailors.

Nah, he doesn't want to watch the sailors, it's too painful. He wants to
impress the lubbers that have just slightly less experience than he does.

The interior of the 35s5 blows away just about anything in it's range.
We looked at everything from new Sabres to C&Cs to Beneteau Oceanus and
First boats produced now. Beamy cruisers may offer more volume but most
still fall short in areas like headroom and sleeping spaces.
The boat is richly appointed even compared to the new Tayana DS 48 I
sail. Robert B
35s5...the most luxurious boat in the group!
