And you'll find these pocket rocketships don't go so fast. In fact, the
C25 may even beat it. Why? The racers are designed to sail LIGHT and with
a lot of drive.

Well said. And the 250 will have the better interior and cockpit for a family
while you're at it.
Loco enjoys bashing boats and anyone who doesn't like what he likes. Catalina
builds fine family boats and some can really be great serious cruisers. My
first boat was a Cat27, a great boat!

LOL.................. Your the main boat basher. I just offered an opinion
on some better alternatives in 25' boats.

No, you didn't. Your post is below. It's bashing a boat you've never sailed.

Great for camping. If you want to sail buy a Merit 25 or an Olson 25.

The Catailina 250 is a fine boat for someone who's seeking greater comfort and
a more forgiving platform for a family. You must also think Doug's boat was
dumb as well. Why not challenge his comments about the 250? Problem is, Loco,
you're a coward and a fool.
Calling the Catalina a "camping" boat that can't sail only proves it. You're
probably just upset that like me, the fellow will have a modern boat while you
sail a dead design dinosaur.

truth

I guess that's why we are first to cross the finish line so often.

How often? There were very few built. Most people never heard of it. Catalina's
of the same vintage have better value and are worth more. So do O'Days. Look it
up.

Once again you prove that you have dyslexia. In my post I said we. I sais
we were first to cross the finish line often. I can't account for other boats.
I can tell you that 2 different Express 30s have been high point champions on
the Chesapeak Bay 5 different times. The C&C 34XL or any other version of that
boat have never won that award once. Suck it up dipwad.
BTW many people don't race 1 design since any of the popular boats in their
area may not fit their needs in other respects. Your such a putz.

Poor Loco. Sailing handicapped is a joke. Sail boat to boat, one design and
maybe you prove something. I see more Catalina's winning in the USA than
Express by a HUGE margin!

LOL................ Easy answer. That's because performance boat buyers are
usually more savy. The same guy who buys Consumers report to determine what
toaster to buy buys a Catalina or Hunter. The Catalina or Hunter arn't worth
more their buyer just pays more.

Which makes them worth more, dopey!

Bwahahahaha!
