Default Beneteau - a sailor/reviewer's thoughts

My biggest complaint with CC boats is that they can be very wet

Yeah, especially on their undersides!

Of course sloco shows us his ass yet again. The 36.7 offers a nearly
unbeatable combo of speed and cruising comforts. The interior is not
high quality like mine, but it's faster to be sure.
Loco sure knows boats!

LOL........................ Hey dimwit, I didn't write the review.


Shhhh. You'll only confuse him.

And it was so futt buckin' ugly that anyone with anything resembling
aesthetic sensibilities would be offended just walking by it on the
dock.


True, it was ugly, but Sloco already owns an ugly boat with a bad
interior, so what's one more?

You didn't attribute it to anyone else, ring-a-round. You did endorse
it by
posting it, though.


Yup...and he also thought the Pearson 30 was 30 feet long. Sloco also
things the Catalina 350 is HUGE!!!!

Bwahahahahahahaha!

has a very protective dodger with side curtains. Sitting that far forward
over the hull insures getting spray in the face when working to weather in
larger waves..


Once they get up to LOA over about 45 feet, that's not a
problem.

If you're thinking of a boat like the Moody 38CC, consider
an Oyster instead.

I dunno, I've never subscribed to the "more is better"
theory with regard to people.

We've chartered a couple of CC boats. It's different. I
personally don't care much for their looks or their handling
unless they're at least 45 feet, although there are a few
pretty cool smaller ones.

Something about the short CC boats that look fat, top heavy and
awkward. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, but I always liked the
look of the Endeavour 42 CC.

I chartered a Hunter Passage 42 CC and was actually surprised at how
well it sailed. I expected much less.

Regularly boobsprit drifts into areas he is mentally ill equipped to
be in and makes certain claims. Historically, in the admittedly few
times where my knowledge is greater than the average of the group, or
by virtue of personal experience I am the highest knowledge holder in
an area, I've challeneged his ridiculous assertions. For the most
part, those challenges have been ignored. I can only assume he is a
busted liar when that happens.

Yet he seems to have no qualms about belittling my opinions or
personal preferences where no claims are made. He can't seem to
distinguish the difference.

What a sad, pathetic little man.

What opinions? That CC boats under 45 feet look fat? Do masts also look
tall to you? What about razors...sharp? You have nothing new or
enlightening to offer here and everyone knows it. What boat do you
sail, Frank? Do you even OWN a boat????

Puhlease!
