A few days ago I logged on to this site in search of a good deal on a 19/22 cruiser. In the process I e-mailed several members asking about their thoughts on performance, HP issues, handling in the chop, etc. hoping to maybe get one response. Silly me. What a great support group you have here on the C-BRATS site and a big thanks to everyone who responded to my e- mails. After all of your advice and guidance, this afternoon I placed a deposit on a 2007 19' Cruiser on consignment at Bulldog Boatwerks in Ft Myers, FL. Many of you suggested that I try to purchase the 22' Cruiser, but I think for my use with the boat the 19' will prove sufficient. And if i decide I need more boat in the future, then Vivian at Bulldogs owes me one hell of a deal on a 22' cruiser (just kidding Vivian-thanks for all of your help) A special thanks to Tad and Toby, co-captains of the Comfy Dory. And although your e-mail and phone conversation were helpful, it was the wonderful sight of the Comfy Dory slicing through the chop on the Indian River this past Sunday that sold me. I am sure we will cross wakes soon. Thanks again to everyone. Sam Arterburn
