Scotty Potty has indicated that cost was not a factor in choosing his
current Siedelmann 30 over a C&C 30. He PREFERED the Siedelmann and
now says he LIED when he said he couldn't afford the C&C boats.

I'm very familiar with the C&C line and have been aboard many of the
well respected designs, from the small 25 to the 30, 34 and 37 and of
course my own C&C 32, Alien.

I'd like to know what aspects of the Siedelmann 30's design and build
are superior to the C&C boats in particular. Perhaps Siedelmann's
reputation as one of the worst production boats ever was not
deserved.


Thanks for any input!

I don't own a boat! Sold it and bought an RV!

Happy as a clam!

Speaking of clams, Sudsy has a bit too much body fat, not a ton but enough
to say she's not athletic lean. No muscle definition either. Get that home
gym and get Sudsy burnining at least 1500 extra calories/day. Get her off of
processed food and onto whole grains, vegetables and lean meats. Cut back on
her booze too, each bottle of Piels she swills down in 240 calories. Why do
you have so much hair on your back and so little on your head?

Ah, always the first and most important consideration in the area I
sail in. Where you looking for less or more?

This oughta be good! Scotty Potty claimed he couldn't afford the C&C
30. Draft was never mentioned. Doesn't his boat have a 5 foot draft?
I'm dying to hear about his issues with the 5 foot draft of the C&C 30
in his area. But since cost was NOT the issue, I'd like to hear why he
bought the boat of other better low draft designs.

Less. The Chessy is shallow, and I'm a gunkholer at heart.
I only draw 3' 4''.

So, you're saying that Boob-Tube isn't correct on this?

WOW! I'm amazed.

Me too. The upper gulf has so many great places to go and so many
unpopulated barrier islands, but shallow draft is a basic requirement.
My last boat drew 4'10" and that was far too much.
