Isn’t it one of the reasons why many of us frequent this list? Especially, since some do not even have a C&C boat (yet or anymore).

Message-ID: <014501ced579$8396a490$8ac3edb0$@net> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" I dropped out of SA a number of years ago. I came to realize that the most vocal contributors on SA are generally those who have the least knowledge and experience. The last straw was a Yahoo who claimed to have a Newport 41 (I owned my C&C 25 and a Newport 28 at the time) and to have done successive spinnaker peals until he achieved a steady 18 knots in 30 knots of wind. Yea, right. Yes, there are folks on SA who make helpful and thoughtful comments, but I don't have the patience to sort through all the chaff to get to the few kernels of wheat. I question if most of the folks on SA have the judgment to tell wheat from chaff, and I wonder how many would really be in the market for one of our boats. Most seem like sailing wanna-bes. But I do applaud your efforts to show them the truth about the qualities of older C&Cs. Rick Brass
