You all know who I'm referring to...... Bobsprit. [aka Capt.Rob]
Let's look at the facts: He requires vast amounts of electricity to power his many "conveniences" He considers a vessel poorly equipped if it does not have Air Conditioning He insists on "Home Theatre" and "Surround Sound" systems aboard. He never describes the sailing gear on his boats... only engines & interiors. He makes sailboat purchases based on interior volume and speed potential He does not , nor has ever raced a sailboat despite the instance for speed. He believes a swim platform in cold polluted water is a design improvement He uses his engine 90% of the time and claims scheduling issues. He has never had the nerve to fly his spinnaker..... He desires sufficient batteries to run all his "conveniences" & lights all night. He considers "Motorsailing" the same as sailing. He is bitterly jealous of Doug's Trawler. He thinks Mylar sails are better for cruising because they're faster. He thinks Veneer is real wood. He believes he needs an intercom... because the engine is always on. He requires a genset as basic survival equipment aboard for day sails. He considers the size of the head more important than the quality of the rigging He can't plot a simple course because he doesn't know how to navigate. He thinks we don't know that Conmmode Joe is his sock puppet. He doesn't realize My Nordica 30 is 10 times the boat his B 35s5 is. Come on now Bobsprit... deep down you know you want a Nordhaven Trawler. you know you are a Power Boater! Sailing just isn't for you. Make the wife happy and buy a big frickin' duel diesel engine 46 footer with a genset. Be Happy!.... Don't Worry! CM |

You all know who I'm referring to...... Bobsprit. [aka Capt.Rob]
You left out my favorite hand cast Commodore Joe Redcloud Moron Let's look at the facts: He requires vast amounts of electricity to power his many "conveniences" As all good sailor do. Sailing without jamming to the back street boys, or NCYNC would be lame. He considers a vessel poorly equipped if it does not have Air Conditioning Indeed, why sweat like pigs. Now all I do is dust my rolls of fat with the boys baby powder, crank up the AC's and I'm happy and comfortable. He insists on "Home Theatre" and "Surround Sound" systems aboard. That right, and if you need to impress the dock crowd noting is better than leaving the door open and letting them glance in at a real theatre. Besides I can watch movies like Titanic and it's more real on my boat. He never describes the sailing gear on his boats... only engines & interiors. Sailing gear is boring, fine veneer and a clean engine matters much more. He makes sailboat purchases based on interior volume and speed potential The volume of my stereo is important, and I've had he up to 64 knots on HWY 241. She would do better but all I had was a yard trailor He does not , nor has ever raced a sailboat despite the instance for speed. It is not about racing, it's all about winning. He believes a swim platform in cold polluted water is a design improvement LIS is cleaner than any Canada water, I drink it all the time. He uses his engine 90% of the time and claims scheduling issues. I'm a busy movie director, real eastate agent, yacht broker, writer, photographer, astrologer, and a Mr Mom. I need to get where I'm going when I want. He has never had the nerve to fly his spinnaker..... Liar....what's a spinnaker? He desires sufficient batteries to run all his "conveniences" & lights all night. The night light is for the my boy.....really it is.....really He considers "Motorsailing" the same as sailing. It is, ask the commordore. He is bitterly jealous of Doug's Trawler. Another lie, Its Dougs life I'm jealous of. He thinks Mylar sails are better for cruising because they're faster. And with duct tape stronger! He thinks Veneer is real wood. It is real thin wood. He believes he needs an intercom... because the engine is always on. Wrong, every capt has an intercom to page crew, you never watch Love Boat do you? He requires a genset as basic survival equipment aboard for day sails. Keeps the CPR equiptment charged and ready. He considers the size of the head more important than the quality of the rigging My ass needs a quality Commode. He can't plot a simple course because he doesn't know how to navigate. Bull, last time I sailed I hat a rock in a charted area. He thinks we don't know that Conmmode Joe is his sock puppet. Good Lord Josie not another dopey one He doesn't realize My Nordica 30 is 10 times the boat his B 35s5 is. Wrong my 35s5 has done 60kts lately Come on now Bobsprit... deep down you know you want a Nordhaven Trawler. My 35s5 has room for everything you know you are a Power Boater! Sailing just isn't for you. Make the wife happy and buy a big frickin' duel diesel engine 46 footer with a genset. She can't afford it:0( Hooooo Ahhhhhhh you loose..loser RB 35s5 A boat she could afford NY Be Happy!.... Don't Worry! |

![]() Wow, Mooron...that's a lot of work! I won't leave you hanging. He makes sailboat purchases based on interior volume and speed potential Well, of course. We like a fun fast boat and sleep aboard on the weekends. Should we have sought out a slow cramped boat like yours? He does not , nor has ever raced a sailboat despite the instance for speed. Well, of course I have raced, but what does racing have to do with simply enjoying a good performance boat? Do you need to race to enjoy a fast car? You clearly have issues. He believes a swim platform in cold polluted water is a design improvement Well, let's assume the water is polluted...most is. And lets forget the 3 months of good swimming temps enjoyed here. The swim platform is still a nice place to sit or use for the dinghy or mount a big TV antennna. He uses his engine 90% of the time and claims scheduling issues. Now this is just plain silly. We have rarely used the motor on any of our boats. In fact no one else here has posted more pics of their boats sailing than I. He has never had the nerve to fly his spinnaker..... I posted a pic of Alien with the chute up some time ago. He desires sufficient batteries to run all his "conveniences" & lights all night. And so? Most boats can do that. He never describes the sailing gear on his boats... only engines & interiors. I guess you missed the posts on my superior steering system, rod rigging and mylar sails!? He thinks Mylar sails are better for cruising because they're faster. Didn't you just SAY I don't mention sailing gear? He considers the size of the head more important than the quality of the rigging Good rigging aint worth crap if you can't crap. He can't plot a simple course because he doesn't know how to navigate. I'm quite good when it comes to a simple course in fact. He thinks we don't know that Conmmode Joe is his sock puppet. Based on the computer skills shown in this group, you probably do beleive that. He doesn't realize My Nordica 30 is 10 times the boat his B 35s5 is. I thought your boat was 1.01 times my boat until I read the Nordica 30 wsebsite. Now we all know it's even worse than Doug's Hunter 19. RB 35s5....don't ever say I'm not good to you! NY |

I think I like the other Bobsprit... he's funny!
"Capt. Rob" wrote in message oups.com... Wow, Mooron...that's a lot of work! I won't leave you hanging. Didn't for a second think you would... Well, of course. We like a fun fast boat and sleep aboard on the weekends. Should we have sought out a slow cramped boat like yours? Why did you buy an off the rack, plastic look-a-like then? My boat isn't cramped unless you're grossly overweight.... are you telling me you're too fat for most boats? Well, of course I have raced, but what does racing have to do with simply enjoying a good performance boat? Do you need to race to enjoy a fast car? You clearly have issues. If you own a ticket collector.. you'll have tickets. If you own a fast boat you'll win races. You have neither Bob.... and yet I have my name on several Regatta Cups and races as well as several speeding tickets. That last sentence of yours "issues"... sounds like a Ganz comment. Well, let's assume the water is polluted...most is. And lets forget the 3 months of good swimming temps enjoyed here. The swim platform is still a nice place to sit or use for the dinghy or mount a big TV antennna. TV Antemma???? I rest my case. Now this is just plain silly. We have rarely used the motor on any of our boats. In fact no one else here has posted more pics of their boats sailing than I. Most of your photos are staged... I can hear you now..."Suzanne, can we turn off the engine and take a photo of us sailing, don't worry I'll take down that annoying jib so you can resume tanning in a second and we won't heel much in this wind. It's for the boys who always make fun of me" I posted a pic of Alien with the chute up some time ago. Shure Bobsprit... Shure! And so? Most boats can do that. Bwahahahahahahahahahahahahahaahaaaa.... Oh Boy! I guess you missed the posts on my superior steering system, rod rigging and mylar sails!? Now you know you only mentioned it because you thought it was better than what the sailors here have. You stopped when you realized neither were new, cutting edge or better. Didn't you just SAY I don't mention sailing gear? You only mentioned their value..... and that they were "racing" sails.... on a boat used for cruising. Good rigging aint worth crap if you can't crap. Why not mount a porcelain toilet on your swim platform..... you can use the rail to hang the TP. I'm quite good when it comes to a simple course in fact. "That-a-Way"... don't cut it as navigation Bobsprit! Based on the computer skills shown in this group, you probably do beleive that. Not really.... I know he's just your lap-dog... nobody could be that stupid and post here [Ganz excluded] without having to seek shelter under someone's skirt. Does he do tricks... other than licking your balls? I thought your boat was 1.01 times my boat until I read the Nordica 30 wsebsite. Now we all know it's even worse than Doug's Hunter 19. I thought you had a bought a nice boat ... till I saw it. Good Grief what were you thinking?? CM |

Why did you buy an off the rack, plastic look-a-like then? My boat
isn't cramped unless you're grossly overweight.... It's better for people who are grossly short and don't need 7 foot long berths. We prefer a comfortable place to sleep and a nice cabin just for our son! Why did you buy an off the rack, plastic look-a-like then? You keep singing that song, but as most people pointed out the 35s5 is distinctive looking, more so than your boat which was also bought off the rack. The only difference is my rack was smart enough to build boats that were good enough to last and stay in business! That last sentence of yours "issues"... sounds like a Ganz comment. And Ganz has had you barking like a nuetered pup for weeks. You only mentioned their value..... Trolls are more effective when you spice them with some reality. I went on and on about how the Whitlock steering had better feel and was more reliable. And it costs more too! "That-a-Way"... don't cut it as navigation Bobsprit! Sure it does! Not really.... I know he's just your lap-dog... I think he enjoys playing with Pavlovian pups and he does it very well. thought you had a bought a nice boat ... till I saw it. Good Grief what were you thinking?? I was thinking that I wanted a boat that looked nicer than yours, with more room than yours, with more speed than yours, with higher value than yours, with better fit and finish than yours and that's what we bought. I'm done with tired old boats that can't get out of their own way with rotting interiors, Mooron. That's what you own, and by your own admission! Meanwhile 35s5's just won several big races in the last few months and two have circumnavigated that I know of. I can't find a Nordica that has done anything more than get a full restoration! RB 35s5...better in every way! NY |

Well Bobsprit... if that was your goal... you failed dismally. You bought an off the rack, cheaply built, coastal sailor that looks like every other chlorox bottle at your dock. The only redeeming factors are it's spray and wipe interior. I'm done with tired old boats that can't get out of their own way with rotting interiors, Mooron.

I can't find a Nordica that has done anything more than get a full restoration! Now Bobsprit...... you know that Teak doesn't rot. Unlike the plastic shelf liner your boat has for interior decor..... wood can be worked... while your printed plastic will fade and eventually peel. Keep in mind that Nordicas are worth restoring.... while your boat in as many years won't be worth a plugged nickel. While my Nordica has won races..... your boat hasn't. While my boat handles ocean states easily... your boat becomes stressed, pounds and sails wet. It screams "Cheap" while at the dock and can't be safely sailed in any waves over 3 feet due to twisting and flexing of the hull. CM |

Oddly enough that mimics what most people claim when shopping for a
power boat. No, it mimics modern design for sailboats, most of which have swim platforms and aft cabins even with less LOA!!! Busted!!!! The only "definitive" thing about the 35s5... is that it resembles a Hunter That's quite an eye you have there. Most people comment on the French aspects of the design, even Bob Perry. But then I'm amazed when lubbers think a Pearson 36 looks like a Pearson 35. Since you bought a vessel with admittedly bad workmanship, it's no wonder that you can't see the difference. Oh, and plenty of folks here commented favorably on her looks. Busssted! Well Bobsprit... if that was your goal... you failed dismally. You bought an off the rack, cheaply built, coastal sailor that looks like every other chlorox bottle at your dock. The only redeeming factors are it's spray and wipe interior. How did I fail? My boat IS faster than yours. Built to a much higher standard than yours by a wide margin...and far more expensive in every way! BUSTED! Now Bobsprit...... you know that Teak doesn't rot. Unlike the plastic shelf liner your boat has for interior decor..... wood can be worked Anything can be worked, replaced, restored and so on. But I don't want to miss a whole summer of sailing doing it as YOU DID!!! Busted!!! It screams "Cheap" while at the dock and can't be safely sailed in any waves over 3 feet due to twisting and flexing of the hull. You do know that the 35s5 uses solid glass re-enforced with a grid to create a very rigid structure. No flexing reported ever, no blisters and no full full restorations required, as on your boat!!! Uber Busted! While my Nordica has won races..... your boat hasn't. While my boat handles ocean states easily... your boat becomes stressed, pounds and sails wet. I just got my 35s5, dopey! But a 35s5 just won the Quadrasolo and Atlantic The Telegram Cup. Real races, Mooron, in open ocean. I can't even find a Nordica 30 that circumnavigated, but two 35s5's did!!! Oh...ULTRA BUSTED!!!!
