Re: Performance Cruisers and Racer/Cruisers

I find that very strage as well.

Both the C400 and C470 has been taken out of production and replaced by the C385 and the C445.

I would have thought that 40' and 47' are sweet spots that a...

Re: Why a racer for cruising discussion...

Brian, I do not consider Lagoons performace Cats. Under most circumstances they seem to be (same length) about as fast as our C400.

We sailed with a Lagoon 380 from Great Sale Cay to FT Pierce,...

Re: Why a racer for cruising discussion...

G'Day Brian,

My hull was #243. 2002 model.

Why not in mast:

I have followed this thread with a lot of interest.

I have also somewhat "been there" and done (a bit of) what Brian is doing, cruised for a year and lived aboard for another year. On a boat...

Re: Modern Hull forms and Motion Comfort

Could be that in the old days, people had no choice but to finish.

Could also be that modern ocean racers are puching the envelope a bit more than in the old days.

A Ferrari F1 probably breaks...

Re: Popularity of center cockpits?

Yep, unless you do not have a Y-valve for pumping directly overboard and are stuck with a macerator pump. My last boat must have been built around the aft macerator pump. Takes several hours and...

Re: Popularity of center cockpits?

My boat had (sold it...) two heads. The major benfits with two heads is that the toilets do break. I think I must have gone thru 2-3 pump assemblies per toilet over 1 year of cruising.

Now, when...

Galley down would be a deal killer for me. I also would need an owners version where on hull is dedicated to owner statesroom and head.

Re: Lets have a chat about multis.
