Default 35s5...superior for her purpose

Want to daysail....cruise, race or just be ahead of the pack?

35s5 deck and bulkheads are honeycomb for light weight and immense
strength. So much for the lightly built deck, Ozzy. Deck problems are
rare on these boats. Only problem I found was due to a dropped mast!

Laminated inner hull units are rot proof and make her extremely stiff,
while saving weight. She has no core to hassle with and meets the same
standards as cored vessels for strength.

Rudder stock is epoxy composite with no reported failures. None!

Deck features special non-skid patterns supperior to standard and a SS
rail that runs the entire length of the deckhouse.

Oh my! What a boat! Swim platform, aft cabin, heat and A/C, nav station
will chart sized surface, ample stowage, huge head, huge cockpit, R&P
steering system....and one of the shortest lists of long term problems
for any production boat ever!

Well that's not entirely fair.... Bob is a big boy and choses his vessels
based on his two favourite pastimes.... Berth lenght and Head space..... :-)

The only way you'll ever4 be "ahead of the pack" is if you take a slip at
the end of the dock!

......can you spell trade-off???

Holy Moly.... yeah that's real strenght there Bob!

Plastic is rot prrof??? Go on you say!

I believe barely meets requirements would be closer to the truth.

Reported Failures??..... Shure!


Deck features special non-skid patterns supperior to standard and a SS

Wow... you mean they copied the non-skid deck pattern and s/s toe rail from
almost any other boat and used it on yours?? Amazing!

Now all you have to do is learn to read a chart, navigate and er-r-r-r-r...
swim in the LIS???

I'm wondering what pack that might be since we've already seen that a
35s5 can't finish a race ahead of the "pack" of slower boats that
started 5 minutes after it did.
