Watch out for Jeff, Gary. He'll go to ANY level to troll. Any level??? I'll even use the truth! Except there is no hotplate. Oops...you lied. Well, I don't think you identified the model - it looked like a stove top plunked down on top of the built in stove. If you have a propane system that you trust, what good is an electric system that only works dockside? More lies. I've already posted we're converting the system. Propane does not belong on a boat. But, you just bragged about a "dual use" system, now you're claiming its so dangerous you're removing it. Actually, I have no problem with those who think propane is unsafe, though I think there are very few problem when its properly installed. I only have one appliance, the stove, and its not even gimbaled so there's one continuous hose from the locker. Also, the locker is vented not just by a small tube, but with an opening of about 6 square inches. But this leaves the question, if you remove the propane, how do you run the stove? You can dance around this all day, but firing up a genset to make coffee in the morning is not ideal for a small cruising boat. Mine has 8 overhead hatches, plus 8 opening side hatches. Lie #3 from Jeff. Jeff ALREADY ADMITTED that he's had some oppressive nights on his boat. I bet if he was honest he'd admit that air conditioning would be nice on occasion. I'd really prefer to skip those oppressive nights and flip the switch, esepcially since AC came with our boat. And again Bob tries to bull**** his way out of this. What I said is that in staying dockside for most of a year in FL there were a few nights that were oppressive. Actually, I'd even agree that if I were to live at the dock year round I might opt for A/C, though might wife might veto it. However, I've never had any desire or need for A/C while cruising. Running a genset all night to power A/C on a small boat in an anchorage is an abomination. Its no surprise that Booby doesn't agree. In fact, he just sounds like an idiot by repeatedly bragging about A/C that he can only use in the marina, while claiming that he doesn't need ventilation! He's spent 20% overvalue for the boat, then paid another 5% to ship it up. Yet another lie. We paid aprox 8K below market and 5 K below 3 35s5's sold recently. And we have what is probably the nicest example with new gear. The BUC value is $50-55K, and there seem to be a number asking well under $70K. But I'm sure you have to keep telling yourself you got a good deal. But he's already told us how after a a few seasons of racing they can't pass survey, so he's out on a limb with this one. Another lie. Jeff can't post a link to my saying any such thing. I found a single boat out of four with a deck problem after a mast was dropped on it. I think you were quite explicit when you said: "We really loved the boat, but could not find one that hadn't been raced to death." So, Jeff lies and lies. I know they look like lies - but they're actually quotes from you! What drives him batty is that I can be so brutal about his boat and do it with honest comments, Right, it really hurt me when you said my boat doesn't heel. What other faults did you find - too much ventilation? while he has to make stuff up...and do it badly at that! HE SAID that for sailing fun he goes to play with his dinghy. So he admits that PDQ aint a whole lot of fun. Truth...even if he won't admit to it after admitting to it! Yup. If I want to do an hour of daysailing I just hop in a small boat at my club. I don't have to spend $60K for a daysailer. |
