@@themultihullcentre7981 Indeed, I’m in Australia, Happy Sailing I wish you all the best, I’m sorry to hear the boats for sail...best relaxation in the world not the wallet :)
You addressed many things that I don’t like about each of the different models…. The video doesn’t show it but I am sure you have engineered redundant systems on a boat that size…. Great job and hope you get lots of sales as a result
Lived on my oceanic 30 for 27 yrs. She's the best. Sailed her all round Britain, Ireland next year. Tough as old boots, ran over 3 submerged rocks in Scotland, she slid straight over 'em, no damage. Not fast, but i go fast enough on land, i cruise for enjoyment, had 12 knots out of her in strong winds. She shoulders big waves to one side and bosses the sea. Love my old girl.
It’s not a case of size with this vessel in fact it has less hardware like winches etc than many smaller boats as for the electronic displays …your probably holding as much computing power and touch screens are pretty naff outdoors unless you are lucky… but that’s just the way things have been heading everywhere. 🤷🏻 It’s the way it’s been arranged that makes it different. By putting the main helm ahead of the mast you give one open space that can be set out as you like. Open forward cockpits are not new and have proven their worth ditto the inspiration this boat created for others. It puts you safely and comfortably at the mast base so your lines don’t have to follow long torturous routes back to an exposed wildly pinching windswept wet cockpit inherited from traditional monohulls. And for when you want to watch the sails and feel the rudders you can sail it from a tiller at the rear. Using a remote control position or hand held unit. The design will benefit from the advances in electric hybrid power and regeneration under sail that have already made such an impact on sailing along with more solar power and modern batteries. Another advance area is in glass. There are lighter greener and stronger forms arriving. The lack of turbulence behind the vessel tells you it’s capable and efficient. A short cut straight out to the fore deck and nets might be the only addition I can see. The only other area for development might be the choice of hull materials … there’s a huge move to shift away from the more polluting energy intensive materials. 🧙♂️😎 Clive
@@clivestainlesssteelwomble7665 Huh? Boats haven't changed, people are just loading a lot more high tech junk on them. I sailed across the Pacific in the days when navigation required a sextant. One lightning strike, and you have a half million dollars of high tech junk, on "today's" boats. So, we end up with yachties who call the coast guard if their high tech junk breaks down, which I find shameful. I didn't even have a radio to call for help with.
Not at all except that we don't build this boat now. We do build the Dazcat Catamaran range here as well as custom projects and major refits and upgrades. You can visit our website to view our current range of boats built at the yard and all the services we offer: www.multihullcentre.com Or contact us to discuss: info@multihullcentre.com You can also take a look at the DazcatCatamarans RU-vid Channel to see our boats in action.
Looking forward to see the details of this refit. Cats from Lerouge have this unique front beam, most of them don't require a martingale. Please share the rest of the footage on this refit, can't wait!
Only 28 feet!!! Catamarans are now in vogue and their owners think they can sell their sailboat for more than they once bought. You have to love this barge a lot to use it! Almost everything needs to be improved. Because of this, the price is exaggerated. Three times the real value. A piece of outboard ... who knows what condition ... is nonsense. Not to mention any soaking, rotting, and the condition of all components. In any case, it seems careless and abandoned.
Looks like a very expensive project, pretty tatty and needs near everything redone if you're serious about actually sailing, silly price for what it is about 4x what people try to get for similar ones here, and yes they all need work of some sort and just because its a cat does not suddenly make it a jewel.
Yes, but this design has been popularized on RU-vid! All you need is an invisible production team and a top quality drone...well a little skin in the game might help too.
@@gavinferguson But, if they aren't having a good time, then they hide it pretty well. I think what's his name eats salt peter'n cold showers to be the gentleman that he is. The Cherokee 35 catamaran on Wildings Sailing has me dreaming too. What a find! Well, I guess the verdict is still out.
This would have been a great buy for what I am looking to do, not only that but I wouldn't need to wait 5 years, could have let your team work on it and give it a more modern upgrade inside.
It was definitely a good one. Keep an eye on our brokerage page as the most surprising things pop up from time to time but they don't often stay there long: www.multihullcentre.com/brokerage-2/
Still like the beach boat better than the wheel house. Glad to see them still being built. Loved jumping the Red Jet wake in these or steaming round Falmouth in sea trails shame it was so brief for me at Powercats.
