@twister.nyroc.rr.com: I'm sure faster for it's length. I don't expect that it would have the control authority and motion characteristics that make me love the 32 so much but I'm sure it's a boat I would like for other reasons. I see that there is a lot of PVC foam used in the construction. A number of people have asked if I've had trouble with the foam in my boat. Since there is none, this may be something the larger and later Endeavors have a problem with. Naw...she's not fast. Weighs too much to be fast. The Amel is even heavier and slower... The Catalinas walk right by both of them. But, heavier is much more comfortable in the slop. It's a trade. It would probably help if my captain didn't just HAVE to have every tool a shipyard would have and two of every part the boat could ever need. I think there's a spare Perkins 4-108, in tiny bits, stored under the aft cabin berths....(c; We don't need an anchor on the Amel. We just heave over half a ton of chain out of the chain locker forward of the forward watertight bulkhead. |
