Man is this UGLY!!!

Here's a photo of a boat that was posted on another forum... He's got an enclosure for the cockpit... damn, is it ugly... why do people do this??? Granted, it isn't like the Hunter 356 is all that pretty a boat to begin with but even it deserves better than this.

You know what the first rule of sailing is? ...Love. You can learn all the math in the 'verse, but you take
a boat to the sea you don't love, she'll shake you off just as sure as the turning of the worlds. Love keeps
her going when she oughta fall down, tells you she's hurting 'fore she keens. Makes her a home.

I love that he has the front window open and is standing in it, as if trying to suck in some oxygen!

You gotta wonder how much that enclosure cost him too... marine canvaswork ain't cheap... and there's a lot of canvas there...

BTW, anyone notice the Jolly Roger on the starboard flag halyard..

Maybe it's to cut down on wind resistance?

Could you project movies on the inside of that enclosure? Hunter could start marketing a "Home Theater" to go along with the hottubs.

It's a tub alright... the windage on that thing must be amazing... Well, he probably doesn't need a riding sail at anchor anymore...
