| | One must remember that RB's boat was designed over 20 years ago when
| disco
| | was king and the science of computational hydrodynamics was sorely
| lacking
| | due to limited computational means available to designers. RB's yacht
| was
| | designed by rules of thumb, a little trial and error and almost no
| | optimization. Computer power was highly inadequate in the mid-80's and
| stone
| | age-like compared to the computation power available today. Think of
| pac-man
| | back then and X-Box today. Rob's yacht, though it may have a few good
| | points, is of Pac-Man technology. Today's performance sailboat designs
| will
| | run circles around his boat designed in the era of donkey kong platform
| | shoes.
| |
| | Amen!

|
| I can tell that Crantz and Gilligan are both jealous of Capt. Rob's fine
| vessel.
|
| It will be the lava lakes for you both if you do not repent of your
| coveting.
|
| Amen and Praise.

| Rest assured I am not capable of jealousy for I own a fine blue water
| cruiser with a large, spacious oversize cockpit. More importantly, the fine
| vessel is colored yellow!
|
| Glory!!

Yellow???? Ha ha ha ha ha! What are you, a Capt. Neal wannabe?
Yellow is no color for a sailboat. And large spacious cockpits are
not very safe for a blue water cruiser. What if you get pooped.
Will it flood the interior or put the boat so badly out of trim
that she looks like a pig in the wallow?

Hosanna!

It's the ideal color! Capt Neal has a fine vessel but its performance cannot
match my fine cruiser even though his boat is also yellow.

not very safe for a blue water cruiser.

Not true! Poor drainage is the factor.

What if you get pooped.

Then I'll rest.

My award winning interior would dare not flood! Actually the hatch is locked
down when sailing.

Pigs are not yellow. They are pink.



Hosanna!

In the highest!

At least little Thomas has a mom and a dad. Have you discovered the
identity
of your father yet?

Yet??

I actually look like my father. What about you????

Ahhhh.. You must be sooo proud! He sounds more intelligent than his
parents.



LOL, Donal. Are you sailing? We're really having a blast on the 35s5.
In case you missed it, these are the 35s5 pages (4 so far) that I'm
working on.

I must admit that I really like the 35s5.

It is really wasted in the hands of someone who is scared to sail more than
a mile from his slip.

Why "admit"? Nothing wrong with the boat. Some consider it
funny-looking, and it has the quality issues of any
mass-produced item; but it's a pretty good racer-cruiser.

So would a Flying Scot. But then, rememer that Bubbles has
good reasons to be scared of sailing more than a mile from
his slip. It is dangerous for him to be without
air-conditioning or to be out of sight of McDonalds, not to
mention all those well-charted rocks that he manages to hit.

I'll have you know that we sailed nearly 7 miles from our slip today.
I think I saw a dragon.

The 35s5 rocks! Did you look at the website?

Admit?? I guess that I am getting on a bit.

10 years ago I would have died for a 35s5.

Now, as I consider my next vessel, I am thinking about getting a Malo. I
don't *feel* old, but I am beginning to to put comfort before excitement.
Perhaps I am in need of a "mid-life" crisis??

That's true.


I salute your superior intelligence. You are obviously a Grand Master of
stating the bleeding obvious.
