We are back at the 2023 Annapolis Sailboat Show look at Catamarans. We are looking for options for our future Catamaran purchase. Lots of things are on our wish list for the new boat but the more boxes you can tick, the higher the price of the boat gets. Unless you have an unlimited budget, you will have to compromise and let some wishes fade. A boat show can be a great place to look at various options to make you reevaluate what you "Must Have" vs what you can live without.
Individual boat reviews will follow this episode, which was published just to say we are back doing boat shows and filming reviews and tours. We also say what our wish list of options is even though we know we probably can't find all of them in a boat we can afford.

@@Bowmans-Woods my retirement was June 1 and looking for a Catamaran myself!! I left a message on your last video a few months back explaining how I wish you would start making videos again because I believe we have the same comfort and cruising ideas and price range!! I’m looking forward to see what you say when you are on a mission to find the boat for your personal use/home!! Take care and glad to see you’re back!!!

Followed you two for years. Your tours of cats are epic! Glad you are getting close to your cat. For your long range plans does a used Anttares make the list? Just wonderiang. Be happy, be safe
@Bowmans-Woods
@Bowmans-Woods 8 месяцев назад
Thanks. Antares has a good rep and does have shaft drive and very nice woodwork but it feels small and dated. Plus Janice does not like the galley down, so probably not on our list.

I am also Canadian and was seriously looking at buying a new HH44 even putting down a deposit. But costs can quickly get away from you on a new boat, you mentioned exchange rates and that was a big consideration as the time between deposit and delivery was almost 2 years so lots can change. After looking at used production cats and researching their issues (many videos on RU-vid) I didn't feel they are a good investment for us. After a reality check and deciding what is important we decided it was better to buy a used monohull which we purchased in France. It came with all the required equipment and the seller addressed all the issues identified in the survey. We felt it was better to start our journey now rather than wait for the perfect boat or one that has the latest tech which can also make it more complicated and harder to service. BTW: We were also at the show Thursday and Friday and nothing we saw made us regret our decision.
@Bowmans-Woods
@Bowmans-Woods 8 месяцев назад
I agree that it’s probably better to get a boat that ticks a few of your wish boxes so you go sooner rather than later while waiting for your dream boat. That you may never find.

@Bowmans-Woods

Im looking forward to seeing some of the more cutting edge electric cats and for that we assume we need to go to Europe. Should be fun to see new places.

Have you ever thought of building your own instead of buying. That is the route I am choosing. Going to build a 50 foot cat for less than 1/4 of new.
@Bowmans-Woods
@Bowmans-Woods 8 месяцев назад
No. I don’t have the skills or patience to build my own.

I think tri hull with shaft is the best way to go.
@Bowmans-Woods
@Bowmans-Woods 8 месяцев назад
Hmmmm. Trip hull has never been our thing. The two outside pontoons are too small to be a useful or comfortable cabins to sleep in and forget about sleeping in them while sailing.

Saw you at the show but by the time we got off the boat we were on to say hi we lost you
@Bowmans-Woods
@Bowmans-Woods 8 месяцев назад
Thats too bad. We said Hi to a lot of people at the show. :-) We took a few years off boat reviews so we are not as well known as we use to be. But that is fine.

@@Bowmans-Woods I wanted to ask you about something I have noticed in HH44, Seawind 1370(RR2) and in the Balance 526 and 442 that you just reviewed. It is the new kitchen design with that big C counter that takes a lot of space in the saloons. what do you think about it? I love the open space in the FP models and even the Outremer models Does it make the cat interior smaller? Thanks for sharing your opinions

We love being on the water too much. Plus if you have a motorhome you have to park it and usually that costs money everywhere you go, every single day. There is no anchoring with 360 degree views. Naw, we will stick with boating.
