Default Owner's Comment on Doug and Seaward

What 1986 model are you speaking of and how does that relate to a recent
magazine review? Did the magazine review the 1986 model?


Are you hoping to get some sense out of Bubbles?


His trolling recipe is the same no matter what.

The antidote is quite simple.

He can never defeat logic and facts.

Uh...and the facts presented by Doug were what, Gilly???
Hmmmm?

For anyone who has serious interest in the Seaward line, which IS in
fact regarded as a well built little boat, they can visit this site:

http://home.att.net/~seaward25/articles.htm

According to Doug, none of this info matters, but I don't think many
people would ignore it. Of course the Seaward is no Hunter 19!!!!

What a laugh....you poor sods were here yapping while I was sailing in
the rain. Will you ever be men?

True. Better off ignoring him.

An example of an insightful post by one of the more intelligent, knowledgeable and
experienced men here.

Three cheers to Capt. Rob!

| As the "former" OWNER of a 1986 Seaward, I can tell you that the build

| also sail quite well in a wide range of conditions. They are not
| advertised as racer/cruisers, but they are not slugs, either. Let Doug
| do a review of the build quality of a Sundowner 36 compared to a
| similar
| sized Nordic Tug, or Grand Banks.
|
| Seawards are indeed a niche boat, as you say. They are for people who
| want a
| trailer-sailer with more than spartan "camping" accommodations. They
| not
| only trailer easily, but they can also be run right up to the beach. If
|
| you want to go a bit larger and forget the trailering aspect, you would
|
| logically be looking at a Southerly.

| By the way, someone drove to """"" from Michigan to buy my Seaward
| for the full asking price and tow it home. I had two other people
| standing by, waiting for a phone call to come buy it if the folks from
| Michigan decided against it. One even tried to get me to accept a
| higher
| offer to tell the Michigan party to stay home. It's ALWAYS a sellers
| market for Seawards. One can only imagine what Doug's motives might be
| for even hinting that Seawards are less than well built.
| I'm staying out of this, though you'll probably post this. Leave me out
| of it otherwise!
