To Undecided;
      I own a 2005 Maryland 37 from Fountaine Pajot
and have had the boat now for over six months and the
factory has proven to be totally uncooperative in
taking care of warranty work. The workmanship of the
boat leaves an awfull lot to be desired. This boat
seems to fit the charter industry well but as far as
an individual owner living aboard I am very unhappy
with the product and would not recommend purchasing a
boat for your own use from this company.
