Take a guided tour of the Albatross 42 Deck Saloon during her launch at the 2019 Southampton Boat Show. #boat #boatreview #sailboat #boating #decksaloon #sailing
Good design for a deck salon style of boat! Would be better if it was 46 feet long. To push back the cockpit and upper deck to allow for more head room in the two spare bedrooms. Great floor plan and sail plan for simplified sailing. Would easily compete with the moody 45 boats if it was 46 feet with bow and stern thrusters, and full controls at 3 helm stations. I like this boat at 42 feet very much, just wish it was a little longer.
I like like cats and DS designs that afford connectivity with the environment especially when cooking. However, this design leaves me wondering where you would store sufficient kitchen ware and provisions as a live-aboard.
I think they could have made better design choices. The layout is actually impressive... it’s like they need to hire an interior architect or designer or something. The proportions are just not appealing. It seems you could do the same amount of work and get a much better look if the design was good.
