Found my boat,it evens has designated “napping space”

Good God… where should I start? That ‘thing’ is the very reason why cruising cats have the rep they do, and the less well informed mono sailors think they are so rubbish. If you want a cat, wansy, here is the one you want. Dazcat 1495 - The Multihull Centre Smaller, cheaper, breathtakingly faster and a proven ocean boat.

Drawback, Darren’s legs aren’t that good. He’s better at designing boats though.

What I noticed was the vast amount of storage at the ends and onthe deck ……so easy to fill but what would all that weight do to performance?…..wouldn’t fit in Yarmouthharbour😂

Scott would in fact have a hissy fit🤣 Hence the Dragonfly. The 1495 is reckoned to carry just short of 2 tons. So no, don’t fill your boat with unnecessary shite. You could convert one of the storage areas to a secret kipping lair….
 
My dog, thought he would upgrade...tried to board a catamaran today 🤣😂.....poor thing is getting on a bit...he went on the wrong pontoon 😁
 
Just one of the things that bothers me. Why is the boom so far clear of even the flybridge? Surely it would be better, both sailing and cost wise to get the whole rig as near the waterline as convenient. I can see you don’t want to be clobbered by the boom on a boat with that much sail, but still, it looks ridiculous, and surely gives unnecessary capsize moment.

When your wandering around the deck with your gin and tonic or one of your non boats aquatiences booms bashing about would spoil the afternoon

Lots going for it out of the pockets of the purchasers! Might stretch your budget a bit.

Here's a better looking, cheaper alternative for you to peruse while you're confined to your sick bed.
