Tom Cotton was the owner of your boat who moved it from Solomons to Huntington. He wrote terribly disparaging things about the 37/40 (37+). Most if not all of the issues he described were either one off issues for Blue Pearl or owner error. The two things I distinctly recall him complaining about were the tabbing and the backstay attachment. I have been a part of this list for over 10 years and to my knowledge no other 37/40 owner has experienced either of those conditions - at least not in a problematic fashion.
My deck squeaks on the starboard side but I can't really place it. I have assumed it was from the added cabinetry in the galley and never sought out the cause.
