Dave's WAY Ugly Boat!

"The CS 36 made its debut at the 1978 dockside boatshow in Toronto.
In
quick succession, it was trucked to the Norwalk Show and then onto
the
Annapolis Show. Within a month 60 boats were sold - over 14 months
production at one per week. Ted Peak, CS Yacht's European dealer,
bought
four on first sight and later sold several more through his network
in
Holland, Germany and the U.K. Ted Hood saw the boat at the Norwalk
Show
and wanted to handle the boat at his Marblehead, Mass. dealership.
But
as CS insisted that Hood also stock the CS 27, which Hood considered
unattractive, no deal was struck. "

Gee, I never tire of reading it!!!!

By the way, the 35s5 was a HUGE design sucess and sold more than 430
hulls! Her interior was featured in MOMA's quarterly and she was on
the cover of several European magazines. It won Boat of the Year!
North Sails reported that a 35s5 won the Quadrsole (sp?) race two
years ago.
Ahhh....well, we love her and so has everyone else that sails her!
I believe the CS 27 was featured on a magazine cover...Famous
Monsters!

Obviously, beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and finding one beholder by
Googling doesn't say much for anything but your own insecurity.

Funny, but just last weekend a guy came paddling by in his kayak in the cove
and asked me what kind of boat it was. I told him, and his comment was "Nice
looking boat."

Meanwhile, the great pretender tries to tell us about his "club" consisting
of a full service marina that closed down its one "club" facility for lack
of purpose but still hands out "club" cards to wannabes.

So, BS, does your "club" have:

Weekly PHRF races for both canvas and spinnaker classes?

Hosting of races for other clubs in the area?

Junior sailing school to teach the kids how to sail?

Fleet of 3 different dinghy types for use of members whenever they wish?

Regular cruises and mini-cruises throughout the year?

Regular social events at no cost?

Members regularly participating in the Marion-Bermuda and other races?

No? I didn't think so. It has what any full service marina has, and that's
it. Oh, and it prints up those neat "club" cards and hands them out to
anyone who writes them a check for slip rental.

Probably do this so that the tennants can try to "bootleg" reciprocity
with real yacht clubs.

If you really must have a slip but with the advantages of a real club rather
than a phony one, there are some that could accommodate you. Check out Duck
Island Yacht Club, for example. They run a real nice sailing program for
kids too.

Don't most clubs have certain 'standards' that must be met
in order to join?
