A little closer, and I'd check her out.

Not sure why they describe her as a 'C' model. Also, took me 2-3 pics before I noticed the pulpit was completely gone. Nobody going to remove and toss it in the garbage for increased aerodynamics... only time I've ever seen a pulpit gone, is when some owner 'F's up, allows his boat to become trapped under a pier/wharf/whatever during a major storm. You know, pulpit bashed to hell and back? TTHAT is when I see them removed and tossed. Usually with some rather extensive deck, if not also hull, damage.

But yes, I'd like to have the option of checking out an 'R' model. Might one day want to get one. Presumably, would shorten my cruising time a bit crossing the Great Lakes. Of course, there's always that WB 'thing' to consider, since this is a '95.
