Stephen,

Mandisa had only a few small (dime sized) blisters at the waterline
which we've chosen to ignore. This is not really a Baba issue. All older
boats can have this problem. Some (like the Valiant 32) are much worse.
Babas seem to be about average. Rick Emerson says "there are boats that
have blisters and boats that will have blisters." I think there's more
to it than that, but don't be frightened off of Babas because of this.
