I am traveling the world to make videos with boats #################### The Music in my videos is from filmmusic.io by Kevin MacLeod License: CC BY (creativecommons.org/licenses/...)
The continuing effort to make sailboats more like powerboats. Flatter and wider hulls, operating space above the waterline and more. I think they got it right! Sailboats historically in an effort to keep the center of gravity low, have had most of their interiors below the waterline (with exceptions of course). For some this is disconcerting being in the “basement”. Now with a wider beam, having a higher center of gravity is possible.
I think it is not so much a function of fatter boats as it is enabled by fatter wallets. Furnature is light compared to full tanks, engines, batteries, generators...
