Ah ha. Appreciate the thoughts (new owner here)! So where is the yard with all the e27 trailers?! Cheers and thanks.

:: I think what he is saying is these boats are way better

:: about 5 minutes. Once you put bottom paint on them you
:: are going to have nothing but problems (IMO). You have
:: to reapply paint every couple of years (or more often),
:: need a diver to keep it clean, blisters, etc. Plus it is
:: less expensive to store in dry storage on the trailer
:: vs. the cost of a slip.
