Chuck doesn't write boat "reviews." He writes boat advertorials.
Some of us who actually care about boats and know a little about
them, people like me, are intrigued when an unexplained material is
being used in an expensive new boat. Some of us who don't care about
boats and no nothing about them, people like you, don't notice the
significance of an unexplained material used in an expensive new boat.

There are many materials that can be used in "infused" composite
boatbuilding, including carbon fiber, fiberglass, kevlar, even wood
strips. Is the thermosetting material epoxy? Vinylester? It isn't
even clear the hull material is solid, as opposed to cored.

Harry, here is a bunch of info on the codeveloper of the NW 42,
including
his email address. If, as you say, you are so interested, ask him your
technical questions.

Please come back and let us know the questions and answers.

Not interested. Only thought it was peculiar the advertorial mentioned
a hull material that was not properly defined. If I were buying that
sort of boat, it wouldn't have an "infused composite" hull.


Harry,
Since you have no idea what materials and layup schedule is on the boat,
how do you know you wouldn't want their "infused composite" hull.

All magazine write fluff reviews to create interest in a boat, so those
who are actually interested can contact the mfg'er and get all of their
questions answered. You are not interested in a trawler, you were only
interested in giving Chuck a rash of **** (your favorite pastime in
rec.boats). As Eisboch said, if it wasn't for your confrontational
post, you wouldn't have anything to say in rec.boats. Do you still
think Chuck, Eisboch and Wayne should be hit with a tax surcharge just
because they have a boat larger than yours?

Heck, at 25 hrs a year, you use your boat less than an hour a week. Why
don't you just save yourself some money and use some of the fishing
charters in the area. You might be able to learn something along the way.



More questions and "advice" from Reggie, the boatless ranking a**hole of
rec.boats.
