You're right, of course Stede. Sorry for the diatribe!
I have second hand knowledge of owners of 6 FC boats.. and in almost all the cases:
1) They love the boat
2) They spend less to maintain the boat then their neighbors and still have a sterling vessel
3) People dont even know they own a FC boat and mistake them for FG or wood
So, I hope some other actual owners out there will pipe up!
