Boat Forum / Cruising / July 2005

Why not go for the "real thing"??

My last boat was a Cheoy Lee Clipper 33 and it was a very fine boat
(just not big enough for my live a board needs). The boat in the slip
next to me at a San Diego marina was an Offshore 40 with the tri-cabin
arrangement, as you discribe. Something that I wished I had at the time.

Heh.  It wasn't I who commented on SGC...

But now that I am connected for real vs web, I see that there are a
multitude of posts which don't show up on googlegroups' version of RBC/B.
