but what can she do?
What would we give for a boat that can truly sail and power?? No compromise, no give and take, just cake and eating it too. While I agree that the M does not seem as practical inside as the X, do we MacFolk really buy boats to sit on the potty and read, or to serve shmancy dinners to our friends? No, that is for the guys who choose to own the 100,000+ dollar toys that we read about in "Cruising World"(while we are on the potty) and then we p--- them off by sailing past when they think mahogony-maketh-the-captain and that shmance entitles them to the port right of way. No we want sailability and powerability, that is the duality that we strive. Has Roger achieved the two with the M?? We don't know yet, no one has sailed and motored the M and given us a review. I am sorry, but what the boat can do is far more important than what we can do in the boat. With due respect to the importance of a magazine rack in the head.I will not deny that the X seems better designed inside than the M. But in reality it is what is under the hood that really counts. I REALLY look forward to hearing how the powsail factor holds up. This is surely the most important issue.................... Tan interior??
