I own a GRAND BANKS, the crhme-d'-la crhme of the Trawler world, and I am a
happy snob. (looking furtively left and right now) So everybody else can
just cry in their beer and wish they were so lucky. (checking cautiously
behind me now)
So what if my boat is a 37-year old wooden wonder and I am usually covered
in grease, sawdust, varnish, and paint? From a certain distance my boat is
indistinguishable from a much newer "glass" GB. So I'm a GB snob, and I
spit on your "other" brands which require no loving care to keep them from
rotting to dust.
Now, where was the one clean pair of trousers and unblemished shirt I own so
I can strut down the pier? Oh, yeah, I forgot, I went out to the boat in
them yesterday and had to fix....
