![]() "Capt. Rob" wrote in message No, it mimics modern design for sailboats, most of which have swim platforms and aft cabins even with less LOA!!! Busted!!!! Heh.. there's a good name for your boat Bobsprit... "Mimic".. named after a movie, describes the design of your look-alike plastic condo and denotes your sailing abilities!! Bwahahahahahahahahahahahahaaaa!!!!! That's quite an eye you have there. Most people comment on the French aspects of the design, even Bob Perry. But then I'm amazed when lubbers think a Pearson 36 looks like a Pearson 35. Since you bought a vessel with admittedly bad workmanship, it's no wonder that you can't see the difference. Oh, and plenty of folks here commented favorably on her looks. Busssted! Wooooooo.... let's take a reality check shall we Bobsprit? You've never lived aboard any of your vessels. I've lived aboard my Nordica for 9 years You've never left the Bay and the max trip was a grueling 3 days... most of it lost. I've been on a 2 month excursion with no engine, no facilities to restock and out of radio contact.... Your 35s5 looks like a Hunter... and let's face it.. your boat is flimsy plastic. My Nordica looks like a real sailboat.... and let's face it... it's a much better boat. How did I fail? My boat IS faster than yours. Built to a much higher standard than yours by a wide margin...and far more expensive in every way! BUSTED! No Bobsprit... your boat is supposed to be faster than mine... but we all know that's not the case. If you consider a thin hull, hollow bulkheads and peel'n'stick interior as a higher standard... Bwahahahahahahahaa... more expensive makes sense and proves you were rooked for the extra five feet in swim platform! Anything can be worked, replaced, restored and so on. But I don't want to miss a whole summer of sailing doing it as YOU DID!!! Busted!!! I missed the season because of work... you know .. what your wife does! You do know that the 35s5 uses solid glass re-enforced with a grid to create a very rigid structure. No flexing reported ever, no blisters and no full full restorations required, as on your boat!!! Uber Busted! Yeah.. shure Bobsprit... now you're claiming your boat is stronger built than mine because they skimped on material & quality to keep the weight down so the pig would actually have a chance to perform within 50% of it's rated potential! Did you ever consider that 35s5s aren't worth the effort of restorations? I just got my 35s5, dopey! But a 35s5 just won the Quadrasolo and Atlantic The Telegram Cup. Real races, Mooron, in open ocean. I can't even find a Nordica 30 that circumnavigated, but two 35s5's did!!! Oh...ULTRA BUSTED!!!! Well... we Nordica 30 owners are a modest and humble people. It's a cruising boat after all and we wouldn't want to embarrass the "Plastique" crowd. Now, from what I've seen posted... your 35s5 is supposed to be fast ... but gets beaten by much smaller vessels on a regular basis.... Tsk Tsk Tsk. 35s5... if you want to blend in with the crowd, are comfortable with plastic and don't intend to sail far from a Sea Tow location.... Ha Ha Ha ha ha!!! CM |
