I'll not get involved with the pluses and minus of the Coronado 41 here, however, if anyone is interested, please see our website at:

We outiftted our Coronado 41 ourselves (previous fresh water boat), and have now been four years either on the way, or in the Caribbean. The website has hundreds of Caribbean pictures and tons of text (updated each month).
If anyone has specific questions about a Coronado 41, please feel free to email me directly (Roland693@Hotmail.com). There is virtually no portion of our boat that hasn't been worked on, modified, or improved. No one has worked on our boat except ourselves in the 7 years of ownership.
Best regards,
Roland and Kathleen

Coronado 41, 1973, Ser. # 7, built in Portsmouth, VA
P.S. The Coronado 41 uses the identical hull to the Columbia 41 (manufactured in the same plant) and has the same sail plan.
