Regularly I hear from people who say that such and such a boat that I designed is a water pig. Fortunately enough people like them to pay my bills. The fascinating thing is that so many who don't like a boat act as if the designer had committed a personal offence. Sort of, "How dare you design such a boat?" Experts are the worst in this respect." John, being an expert of some sorts (photographer) I am sharing your opinion! Experts have the knowhow - but do not always know "how"... I know that this makes no sense to most of you, but anyway, I want to cite a local proverb: "the truth lies in rye bread" :-) Think about that.
