![]() "dog" wrote in message news:2006041410300316807-dog@nomailcom... Apparently, unique is another way of saying UGLY. Bob's boat isn't ugly, but it really isn't unique either. Take the average landlubber, walk him down a dock with a bunch of Beneteaus and Jenneaus in the slips, including a 35s5, and then ask him to tell you which boat is "unique." I'm betting he'd have a rough time with that request. "They all look the same to moi," he would say, after walking the dock up and down a few times. Now repeat the same test with a season sailor. His response would not be dissimilar. Plastic boats from France have the distinction of all looking pretty much alike. Now put a single Panda 34 or a CCA-style boat in with all the Beneteaus and ask the same two individuals the same question. Doubtlessly you'll get a quick and definitive response from both. Max |

I'm betting he'd have a rough time with that request. I have a plenty of non-sailing friends and the 35s5 has won them over hugely as compared to the more conventional C&C 32...and this on looks alone. There are a ton of boats that looked like my C&C. My ex-girlfriend saw the 35s5 for the first time last month (She's owned a Catalina 27, J24 and now a late model Catalina 30) and was utterly wowed by the 35s5. She wants to buy one! RB 35s5 NY |

Maybe you should sell her yours. Instant profit? Max |

Oh Puleeeze Bobsprit...... at least attempt a modicum of truth in your fabrications! There are a ton of boats that looked like my C&C. Like the 35s5??? Bleach Bottle Boats all look alike!! Shiny white plastic fin keelers lined up in a row! It's a wonder you don't take the wrong boat out every so often by mistake and wonder why the performance curve has taken such a twist.... then again that might be difficult under power Eh!??? CM- |
