You'd **** Yer Drawers if you ever sailed in the seas I go out in up here. you'd be triple reefed and furled to 75% in that light air rig. Look Bob.... when I'm in a bay... I'm either sailing out... or sailing to the nearest bar! There isn't anything to describe the feeling of swells, open space and steady air..... oh well... it doesn't matter... enjoy your protected harbour Bob. CM ....and that's a whole mess of actuals!!. |

Doug...not ONE of those boats listed matched or even came close to the criteria I listed. no swim platforms OH MY GOD!!! NO SWIM PLATFORMS!!! My friend has a 5 and 1 year old. The swim platform is fantastic for them. It's also great for dinghy use. No reason not to have it. My lovely CCA-style boat has a low freeboard alongside the cockpit. My 3 y.o. grandson can easily slip over the side into the dink. And we lift my 1 y.o. grandson in with ease. Swim platforms are for power boats and floating docks. g Max And for race boats that want a little extra waterline and for protecting rudders that are proud of the stern. You can lift a 1 y.o. into anything with ease. The sugar scoop stern (racer)aka swim platform (cruiser) is here to stay. Yup, they are. So are Chris Bangle's ugly new BMW auto designs. No accounting for aesthetic taste these days. Actually I have only one thing against arytenoid sterns with platforms--they tend to be found on boats with exaggerated beam carried aft. Most of these boats tend to drag their sterns horribly. If they did not, I believe they'd all be faster and accelerate more easily. These sterns are strictly a compromise--hullplan efficiency traded for comfort and convenience. In their favor they are convenient for older or less agile people to board from dinghies, and they are a nice place from which to pee when underway. Max |

"Capt. Rob" wrote in message oups.com... Oh no, Steve--Bubbles has shown us all just how his Beneteau is considerably superior to Nautor Swan and other like products. Just ask him. Given our planned usage, please tell everyone what the Swan would do for us that the 35s5 won't. Nothing, Bubbles. You should *never* own a Swan under any circumstances. Max |

I think that plastic coated veneer fake teak is better. Of course some folks "like" oiling thier teak. If it's below decks, you might try varnishing it. Depends on what you like. I have teak plugs over the s/s screws in the teak. I like to be able to access anypart of the boat. If that entails removal of some teak... it's far simpler and less damaging to remove the plug on oiled teak than on teak with 10 layers of varnish. Oiling teak is a simple effective method to maintain wood with a nice effect. Varnished glossy interiors belong on vessels where the work is done primarily by the yard or hired out. CM |
