Thanks for the replies guys. I guess I'm not crazy then! If the owners themselves don't know the difference I don't feel so bad. Also, it means the older boats are worth considering. I'm also reading mixed reports of cored vs non-cored hulls. Anyone care to comment on that one?? Mostly I read that they are cored all the way down.
