I'm shocked by the price!! My *new* 33.7 was within your price
bracket... and the 33.7 has a lower PHRF. Donal....I like your boat a lot, but they don't cost 57K or even 75K here. The 35s5 (which cost 57K) gives us plenty of speed and an interior that fits us a bit better. If racing was higher on my list, a 33.7 might have been considered more. Also, the small performance gain for the 33.7 here seems to run hand in hand with a near 7 foot draft which doesn't work for us. The standard draft 33.7 rates 129 just like the 35s5 WK in many areas. Finally, there's the US quality factor on the interior to contend with. Based on my conversations with dealers I won't but a newer US built boat from Beneteau. As I think I mentioned, our interior was not built here. FYI, our next boat could very well be a 45f5...but that's 4-5 years off at least. This is plenty of boat for us now. RB 35s5 NY |
