Re: pilgrim and oyster
What is missing from the comparison is the fact that the Pilgrim can
be a blue water cruiser while the Oyster was designed as a cheap
hotel room for a college student. I think the Oyster is well suited
to its designed function and can be used for inland sailing. The
Pilgrim would cost more to place in a marina for its length. It would
also serve as a wonderful cheap platform for a broke adventurer.
The more practical comparison would be between the Superbrick and
the Oyster as they share more of a mutual design function.

It is interesting that both of these boats have almost the same
accomadation plans. The major differenceIMHO is that pilgrim has much
more storage space which would be essential for anyone plannng to
live onboard AND do their own maintenance.
Oyster does not appear to have any auxiliary power.
