Intro and new Ocean Crossing boat design

Cosmic Lazy Susan · 03-06-2006, 08:13 AM

Hello Salty Dogs,

I'm not currently a 'Salty Dog' but I am a life long sailor, boater and ex-Navy tincan man.

Ran across this new ocean crossing boat design I found very interesting and thought some of you might enjoy it too.

Good thing it is self righting. A long skinny thing like that is probably pretty easy to broach and roll! :shocked:

Actually Dale with the breeze at about 25 knots and running at about 135 degrees aft, I would rather be in one of these for crossing oceans -

I'd be worries a big wave would blow out the windows.

That actually looks like a very seaworthy boat. Reading some of the stuff I got the distinct impression that the people building it know what makes a seaworthy boat. I can't even guess what the price would be with all that stabilization built in and look at all the woodwork in the living areas. Mucho bucks for that one.

Welcome.

Wow, nice boat... Maybe, after I win the lottery...
