Default Who Owns the Nicest Sailboat???

Why? For and aft births are over 7 feet long?

And 6 inches high! And no overhead hatch!

???Of course there's an overhead hatch in the V and that birth is over
7 feet. Aft cabin has opening port and ducted vents for AC and 12V fan.
On a 92 degree day it was quite comfortable.
As for the storage space, I'll post pics and that will end that. You
have no single storage space to match it's huge size...not even close.
There's also ample storage elsewhere...quite amazing for a boat of this
type.

Stop! Stop! You're cracking us up!!! You're the only "sailor" in
history who has ever bragged about how comfortable their boat is
because it has A/C at the dock! (Except a few lonely men thrown out
by their women and forced to live dockside. So is family life getting
a bit stressful?)

You just don't get it - lots of boaters can afford A/C, but they just
don't want it. We've slept on board an average of 40 nights a year
for the last four years with only one night spent at the dock. We
don't call anchoring out "horrific," we call it a great night's sleep.
Even when we spent at lot of time dockside in Florida on our trip
there were only a few nights that were oppressive.

Unless it has 7 foot standing space, you're wrong.

And please, learn how to spell "berth." Your lubberlyness is just too
much!

And a lot of boaters have it and like it. So? Claiming a feature is "no
good" because you don't have it is pretty sad. And in our case it came
with the boat and is new. You're jumping up and down over a nice boat
feature we didn't even install. Pretty funny.

No. You're claiming everyone else should "kill themselves" because
they don't have it. Hint: No one here is envious of you because
you're afraid to anchor overnight without A/C. Having A/C because you
plan to spend time staying in the slip is fine. But claiming it makes
it a better "cruising boat" is silly. And thinking anyone is envious
is just plain stupid.

You're so silly. I originally posted info on my boat with NO EDITORIAL
remarks and was attacked. So now everyone gets spanked and you're
crying! BWAHAHAHAHA! Well, maybe you wouldn't look so jealous if you
acted otherwise. You spend so much time crying over my boat and it's
features...do you think you don't look jealous? Notice that Maxprop is
not getting kicked in the ass? Maybe that's because he was an adult and
said "Nice boat and good luck." Not much I could say to that. You, on
the other hand, WANT these exchanges. Probably because in real life
you're truly frustrated by you choices. You're fooling no one.
Get real, green boy!

I'm envious of those
that buy old boats and fix them up and then take off for 20 years!


That pretty much says it all for you, Jeff. I know people who do the
same, but I don't ENVY them. I'm happy for them. Big difference, Jeff.
You make choices, some good and some not so good. You shouldn't be
embittered when someone makes a better choice even on a relative level.
I can say, Nice boat. Maybe not my cup of tea, but I'm glad if you're
happy with it. If you can't do that you have a serious problem.

That's not fair - I, along with others, immediately said it was a good
match for your sailing. I pointed out, as I've continued to do, that
is simply is not the great "cruising boat" that you claim it is. You
completely overlook the obvious shortcomings, like the tiny galley,
and the cabin you brag about is actually a crawlspace.

You even posted a bogus SA/Disp - I hope that's not why you think its
so fast!

It is a very nice boat to sail for a few hours and then return to the
dock and plug in. I have no problem with your doing that, but most
people here think that's a waste of $60K.

So now everyone gets spanked and you're
crying!


Crying??? In your dreams!!! I've never laughed so hard! You've made
a complete ass of yourself! You claimed that sleeping on a boat
without A/C would be horrific!!! BWAHAHAHAHAHA!! You even posted all
of you pathetic assets trying to prove what a big man you are, Monkey
Balls!



BWAHAHAHAHA!


don't choke

Well, maybe you wouldn't look so jealous if you
acted otherwise.


Why would I possibly be jealous - there is not a single aspect of your
bendy that I prefer over my boat. Its slower, half the size, a poor
cruiser in almost every regard.

You spend so much time crying over my boat and it's
features...do you think you don't look jealous?


I doubt a single reader of this thinks I'm jealous. I think they all
realize I enjoy keeping buffoons honest.


Notice that Maxprop is
not getting kicked in the ass? Maybe that's because he was an adult and
said "Nice boat and good luck." Not much I could say to that.


That's what I said from the beginning. How many different post did
you make claiming it was better than everyones else's boat?

You, on
the other hand, WANT these exchanges. Probably because in real life
you're truly frustrated by you choices. You're fooling no one.


So, what are you claiming, that it was actually me who posting the
everyone should "kill themselves"??? You started this. Now you're
realizing that maybe your new toy isn't everything you claimed it was.
Its not too late - you could put it on the market in FL, save the
shipping cost and not loose too much. Hell, you might even make money!


Get real, green boy!

Oh, Jeff....you've really raised your skirt this time!
Jeff, you're one ignorant crazy fellow! The 35s5 has more room below
than a Caliber 35 and about the same room as a Island Packet 35, and
much more room than a classic established cruiser like a Pearson 365.
She has plenty of storage, more than the Caliber and Pearson in fact
and probably as much as the IP if you don't carry 9 bags of racing
sails. Her galley is larger than the one on our C&C we're we cooked
plenty of meals without an oven. Of course the 35s5 has an oven.
In fact the 35s5 has nearly as much room below as a Catalina 34 or 36,
except the aft cabin is smaller. The 35s5's bunks are still larger and
there's more headroom as well. The 35s5 also has the biggest head of
the above boats and the largest single storage space which can hold
sails and a dinghy and still have room for a person to sleep!
Under sail the 35s5 is a performance boat, it's true. Uncomfortable?
That's relative. On a 6-7 knot day in 90 degrees you'll be motoring
those boats above (and so will you on the PDQ) while we sail.
As for the S/AD, I suggest you check her with the tall rig option which
we have.
I wonder who else thinks you can't take a trip in a 35s5? I guess
Loco's boat couldn't either, nor could Donal's, nor could my friend's
J30 (which has sailed to Florida and back).
Jeff, you're truly a self exposed powerboater...and I aint kidding.
I offered Doug the chance to find a BETTER choice and he failed. So
would you if you gave it a try.
I'm sorry, Jeff. We test sailed the boat and we know how she'll be
used. She performs better than your multi, especially here on the
sound. She's more fun to sail and has all the room we need for now and
the next few years.
No one here has a better performing boat per foot and that's a fact. No
one here has a nicer boat and that's a fact. She's basically better at
everything....just like her captain.

Jeff, you might actually gain some ground in these childish rants if
you didn't lie constantly. I said SOME nights and you then agreed than
in Florida you had some oppressive nights. That's what the A/C is for.
Sorry you have to remain "opressed" in the heat!

Jeff, please link us to your comment that I bought a nice boat and with
no trolling critical remarks. Show us that you're an honest fellow!
I have your very first comment right in front of me....but go ahead and
look for it.
Thanks for the backhanded compliment. She IS a nice boat, suited to our
needs and then some.
