Thanks for taking the time to post your thoughts on the mid thirty foot sedan style boats. I have reviewed your posting with my wife and enjoyed the Carver 360 you tube video you linked.

When we have the opportunity, we try to view as many sedan bridge style boats as we can so that we may form an opinion as to what appeals to us and the type of boating we would want to do.

Always interested.........

Mike.

You just can't beat the Carver for the layout, quality and price. Regardless of choice, I am glad to see you graduating to a bridge. Boating is so different once you get away from the sound of the engines.

Sedan bridges are great, but I'm really curious what your top 3 sailboat, pontoon, and paddle boat choices would be? :D

Ok, we have covered Cap'n top three choices in Sedan Bridge boats, pontoon boats, sailboats and paddle boats.

What would be your top three choices in bow bunnies? Blonde, brunette, red head? :)

Mike

I'll pass on the bow bunny preferences, I'm sure you have seen enough pictures of Grace Kelly, Natalie Wood and Ann Margret in their heyday :D

How about we go back to the original topic .....

Nice little video of the 340SY

Heck, they didn't even have to be in their heyday. :D

Sorry for the hijack...

One of my former bosses owns a Hunter 33. LOVES it.
