well yes !!!! third mate, you really did rant.
i don't take offence at your opinion, and every one is entitled, and in fairness i do agree with you a little.
as you have probably guessed i have a bounty bath tub which i bought for comfort, space and loads of storage.
i am now retired and will be spending more and more time onboard, i therefore need the space to turnaround in
comfort. i don't know about being under powered as anyone on the ant on change-over day will realise when they see
all the new starters coming down
i, like you third mate love the traditional type boats but at my age this bath tub suits me fine
i will say, i sold a broom skipper in order to buy this boat, and it was lovely, but lacked 100% COMFORT.
no offence taken mate
