A Boat for a coward
 

The swim platform on the 35s5 was not designed for the purpose of
lifesaving. It was designed to allow Beneteau to sell a 32 foot boat
for the
price of a 35 foot boat.

Actually, without the platform she measures 34.8 feet. Just like most
other boats these days. I wonder how they still got such a huge cabin
into a 34.8 foot boat? It's close to the old Catalina 34 in length if
not actually longer and I'm talking about the Cat without a platform.
Same headroom as the cruising catalina, but with bigger bunks and head.
And of course the cabin is much bigger than my C&C 32.
Swim platforms are awesome, especially if you swim, have a dinghy or
like to get your toes wet! They also SAVE LIVES!

Well gee that's not what you said a few posts back.
Remember: "Wrong, wrong, wrong"


Wrong wrong wrong was to your post that picking up on the widest beam
was the ONLY option. It's not. You're ignorant, narrow minded, own a
slower more dated boat and won't get laid tonight!
That's your life. Enjoy!

Come on guys, throw the guy a line, bring him aboard where it's easiest.
Probably on the scoop/swim platform on this boat. Certainly not on my
double ender.

That's the truth...... for me it would be aft of abeam alongside the
cockpit coaming... I can snap on a block&tackle to my boom and raise even
500lbs out of the water with little to no effort.

Funny thing though ........... I don't think we've ever been beat by a
boat that started 5 minutes after us. In fact we've beat boats that
started 5 minutes ahead of us. BAM .............. Bitch slap!

No. That would have to be SDPS II.

Even better for taking a dump or swishing out your cedar bucket.
