I guess you know what Loco "needs"?

Why not give us a list of 30 footers that are roomier & faster?

Guess you don't read people's posts. Typical selfish powerboater. Loco
has already stated MANY times that he doesn't cruise. So a J29 would
have served him better as it's faster, has rig options and a racing
class that actually can be found in many areas. Loco picked a
cruiser/racer and yet he admits he doesn't do anything but races and
daysails.
Not a good choice based on the info given by Loco, now is it?

35s5...the right boat for daysails, racing AND weekend cruises!

Is that the same as admitting you don't know?

I think I've always said "mostly"

Not true. I was done bending over down below when I sold my Merit.

Guess *YOU* don't read people's posts. Loco has posted quite
often about overnighting in his boat.

Actually there are a ton of boats that do exactly what the Nordica does
and they do it far better.

No there isn't Bob..... not tons.... maybe a half dozen comparable and a
few one off builds. The Hans Christian 33 is a very nice...

But there aren't too many boats that do what
a Menger does, which is why it's a standout.

Race boat which will be subject to design improvements in a few years and a
better model will be built.

others at
the price point then you have a great boat.

yes, I do.

The Nordica 300 is a sweet boat. Worked in tandem with them in 91
removing old platforms in the Gulf, At the time they had an A frame on
the stern. The crew was Jelious of us, we made on average 300% more
money then they did. They had the nicer boat.

The ultimate sailboat is a Sundeer IMO

A couple of full keelers were buildt

Wow. Does that thing really have three bow thrusters?

No Sundeers were built with "full keels" in the usual sense of the term.
A few of them had bulb-dagger-keels, the rest were stubby (but
efficient) fin keels. They do like to put the rudder on a large & sturdy
skeg, maybe that's what you're thinking of?
