Well let's see how the tally is going.....

The 35s5 has a big proper racing wheel. The Express 30 has a small
wheel that is hard to reach from the high side.
The 35s5 has ports that stay in place. Express 30 has famed pop-outs
that are glued in place!
The 35s5 is the faster boat!
The 35s5 has a far nicer cabin with air conditioning. The Depress 30
cabin looks like something from the 70's!
The 35s5 has a swim platform with hidden ladder, while the Express 30
has a exposed ladder! Oh boy.
The 35s5 has a larger cockpit and better deckspace!
The 35s5 has an aft cabin! Some Depress 30's didn't even have a quarter
berth!
The 35s5 has a large head. The Depress 30 often has a porta potti and
barely room for the knees. Some heads were wide open to the V-berth,
like Sloco's boat! Yikes!
The 35s5 is a pretty boat with lines. The Express 30 is blocky and hard
looking, a fairly ugly boat under sail.
The 35s5 won boat of the year design awards and was featured in MOMA
Magazine for it's inovative interior. The Express 30 won no awards and
there are fewer wins online for it.
The 35s5 has won many races and sold over 400 hulls worldwide. The
Express 30 sold an embarassing 100 hulls or less!
The 35s5 features Whitlock steering. The Depress 30 relies on coat
hangers!
The 35s5 features good ventalation via opening ports. The Depress 30 is
a floating microwave.

Of course there's much more, but I have a 102 fever! I'm going back to
bed.

35s5...the best boat on ASA

Go check out the windshield in your Tribeca, Rob! It is heavily
depended upon
for supporting the roof in a rollover. See how it's fastened?


Actually, the B9 frame can support twice it's weight in a rollover due
to circular members incorporated into the chassis. The for and aft
windows are designed to pop out.
Maybe it's a safety feature on the Express 30. In the event of a
unrecoverable knockdown you can try to squeeze out the ports! One
things for certain, some flexing and serious waves will pop them out.

This guy buys a newer bigger boat than mine and he's still jealous of
my lifestyle. Has to be to go through all that typing which is mostly
innaccurate. Seems like he's on the ropes mentally. Maybe I'll finish
him off with one true factoid. The Express 30 has been High Point
Champion on the Chesapeake 4 times. Oh, and it wasn't the same boat.
The semi planing 35s5 has never even been in the running. Bam!

35s5 .......... semi-planing at the back of the pack.

You're not refering to silly PHRF where Catalina's and Coronado's can
win any race, right?
That's the difference, Sloco, I've actually RACED. Same boats, same
amount of crew and so on. My boat is faster than your boat and that's
the bottom line.
Uhhh...BAM!!!!

Wow!!!!

Was that a *whole* race, or did you just join in on one leg?

Do you realize how much of a ****** you make yourself look. Anybody
reading this newsgroup must get a kick out of your ******ness. I hope
your boat is faster than mine. It's 5 1/2 feet longer. Chomp on this:
What's more telling is that a Olson 911S which is a 30 footer that's
only a little bit newer than mine and has a beautiful interior that
makes it a great dual purpose boat HAS THE SAME PHRF RATING AS YOUR
BOAT.

35s5 ................ semi planing at the back of the pack. Might even
be 3 packs back.

Wow!!!!

1st couple of years I started sailing again I got into J24 racing on
several boats. It taught me that the only race that matters is between
boats of the same specs. A lot of folks don't want to hear that of
course. I have a lot of friends who race. The PHRF is for fun and
that's it. The only race I'll win that will matter is against another
35s5 or boats that have similar performance to my boat.
I have no doubt that I'd beat Sloco in a race handily with my 35s5. And
be more comfortable doing it.

It's ALL just for fun unless you're paid to do it.

Your boat is faster than his. So what? There are boats faster than yours. So
what?

You know the one thing that makes me wonder about your 'trolls'? The sheer
volume - the non-stop flood of pointless, banal knob waving tripe that you
post in here day after day. The content and the entertainment factor are
fine, but the not-inconsiderable typing time leaves me wondering if there
really is something awry...

You're only seeing a little bit of history here. For years, Sloco has
been going on about his Express 30 being faster or newer or god knows
what. We just went out and bought a nice boat for our family and it
just happens to be faster than his. The chickens came home to roost. If
he wasn't tortured by it he wouldn't bother responding to every post!!!

but the not-inconsiderable typing time leaves me wondering if there
really is something awry...

It's winter, or nearly so. I work four hours per day on average.
Finishing off my book, playing with my beatiful son, spending time with
by sexy wife.....and beating poor Sloco from ringpost to
ringpost...good times!
Between you and me...I could care less that my boat is faster. There's
always a faster bigger nicer boat. Only Sloco cares....he really really
cares!
