Cranchi 41

[NoIllusion]

Did anyone take a good look at the new Cranchi 41 at LIBS ??. If so, what is the verdict. Unfortunately I missed the show but am interested in any views on the boat. Will it be a worthy successor to the "39" ??

The Endurance 41 is very similar to the 39 in the basic layout, although it looks similar it actually is a new hull. The main visual difference is the forward facing radar arch and the extended bathing platform. The main mechanical difference is the fact that it is now available with the new Volvo D6 engines. The helm position and dash is completely new and improved with lots more wood and a better layout. Down below is where the greatest improvements are to be found, once again the basic layout is the same as the 39 but with much more cherry wood and suede like materials used on the cabin walls with lots of concealed lighting, overall a vast improvement. I currently own an Endurance 39 which I have had from new and have found it to be exceptionally well built, fast and reliable so much so that I have a 41 on order due for delivery in July this year. I know that it is going to be at least as good, probably a lot better than the 39. Incidently my 39 is going up for sale in June if anyone is interested
