Chuck, how would you rate the 260 Defiance against a 26' Osprey or a
27' Sea
Sport? (Or the 24' Sea Sport, for that matter.)

****************************

I wouldn't.

To make an accurate comparison you'd need to do a side-by side test on
the same day, under the same conditions, and rigged with similar or
identical engines. The most significant portion of a comparison that is
extremely subjective, (therefore subject to a variety of personal
opinions), is the degree of satisfaction with performance and handling
and the "feel" of the boat underway. Other subjective things are
ergonomics, overall appearance, etc....and reasonable people will come
to different conclusions, (explaining why so many different brands of
boats sell well).

Most of the objective differences will be outlined in the factory
specs.

As far as the subjective impressions and opinions go, consider me like
Faux News, John. I report- you decide. :-)

Be very careful listening to this ex used car salesman, ex used boat
salesman, ex .........person John, I say he's repeatedly over many years
now, has deliberately mis "reported", construction, fuel usage, etc etc
etc :-) Initially I was prepared to put his technical faux pas down to
being a new boater & a bit simple, however given the total lack of his
"errors" ever going against the seller??? Hmmm curiouser & curiouser.

It seems he might just leave out anything he perceives to be a negative
to sales, indeed I'd suggest he just parrots the seller's marketing line:-)

As if there's any doubt about his mental processes??? when given the
choice between admitting he's a boating illiterate or maybe bent he by
default chose both!!!:-)

K

So just in case you harbour even the slightest reservations about how
dangerous this psycho Krause actually is???

Even after he has real life stalked 2 of the female NG contributors
over the years?? if that's not worrying enough then have a look at what
in his lying mind he's actually proud of;

I came home early one day, tapped the garage door opener in the car and
voila! There was a strange car in the garage with an even stranger
couple completing their Christmas shopping by loading up their car with
my wife's jewelry and my electronics.

The burglars saw me, obviously, and as the male ran across the back of
the garage to get into his car, I drove forward with my Ford truck and
pinned him ever so gently between my Ford front bumper and his car's
rear bumper. And then I drove forward a leeeeeeetle bit more and gave
him a leg fracture.

then when people said how crazy this lie was; he doesn't stop he just
lies in a higher gear:-)

I'll modify it, just for you, stunatz:

I've been driving for more than 40 years without causing or receiving an
injury, *except* for the time I deliberately broke a burglar's leg by
crushing
it between the front bumper of my Ford F150 truck and the rear bumper of his
car.

Mo' betta?
