They always do!
It's a review by a sailing publication of which I have never seen a negative one, had he reviewed it in at least part of the time in conditions that it might reasonably have been expected to encounter as an expedition yacht then it might be a valid review but not in balmy conditions in southern Spain.
You obviously have not watched the video. The dodger roof is covered with solar. Pretty sure they will add davits and a watermaker if you ask them. This is the first boat they have built. so maybe not the finished article
There are lots more I could critice but I didn't want to upset the armchair done it alls
Not a question of upsetting anyone - just getting your facts right. You seem to make a habit of getting things like this wrong in your haste to diss anything you don't like.
The website for the boat shows no solar. The two panels they stuck on the roof for the boatshow are badly positioned, either side of the boom. One will always be in the shade. They alone won't provide anything like enough solar performance for what is described as an expedition boat.
I think the term ‘cheap’ production boat is probably redundant....there are more expensive boats...not cheap ones
May be 'built to a price' would have been better than cheap
In my opinion....if someone goes to a boat show and says ‘that’s a cheap boat !’....they need to be looking for a bigger boatMay be 'built to a price' would have been better than cheap
I'm sure you could, but then your tomorrow is most peoples yesterday.
Definitely not.I'm sure you could, but then your tomorrow is most peoples yesterday.
I have no doubt you have foiled many a sound plan in your time.Definitely not.
I have done more foiling than you
Oh come on, you can do better than thatI have no doubt you have foiled many a sound plan in your time.
It's a selling point ''look, with this go-anywhere boat you can flirt or bang against floating ice chunks without embarrassing unaesthetic scratches''. The boat may never meet ice during its entire life but who cares
Plus alu boats with huge dents in the topsides is not a good look (as seen in Trinidad following a localised storm many moons ago).It's a selling point ''look, with this go-anywhere boat you can flirt or bang against floating ice chunks without embarrassing unaesthetic scratches''. The boat may never meet ice during its entire life but who cares
Also, ballpark cost for renewal of the paint of a light alloy boat it's magnitude of a new teak deck.
I would rather have a dent than a hole.
Obviously
