New Luffe 3.6: http://minbaad.dk/nyhed/archive/201...fe-36/?cHash=1022ca2fbaf9086ed0b77f7bdc405813

Saw her in real life, she's stunning and should sail like a dream as the other Luffe's do. The Pictures doesn't do her Justice, but have a look anyways.
And even better craftmanship than Najad, HR, Malö etc.

Looks like it is more designed for style than comfort but it should certainly impress your neighbours in the marina.
I would have liked some non slip finish in the cockpit and some where to brace my feet at the helm if I ever took it sailing. But that sort of stuff would spoil the clean lines and shiny finish.

Would surprise me if it were - Haven't sailed her (yet) but knowing the other Luffe's I'm pretty sure it would be there if needed. They are great sailing machines, and used for both racing and cruising: http://www.luffe37klubben.dk/

Very pretty, but have they built one yet, if so why no pictures of the real thing. Totally different market to your comparison boats. Would not touch one myself, why still using balsa core in this day and age.

The Pictures are of the one I saw in real life in Kolding last weekend (not taken by me), so yes they've built one.
I only compared craftmanship, not type. Sorry for showing something that is not a MAB (Although the boat I own is a MAB, and even British).

The Balsa core Struck me as odd as well, as the others use foam IIRC, will have to ask about that.

The keel configuration seems ideal for snagging fishing gear.

Luffe might (or might not) build good boats but it builds rotten websites.

The first time I saw a Luffe 40.04 I fell in love and if I ever upsize, it would be my dream boat. Just need the lottery win! Absolutely fantastic yachts. And indeed the website is Rubbish.

Does this design mean that sloping bows and sterns are coming back into fashion?

They're built in Kolding, aren't they?

Cheers

Pointy bits for cutting water? In fashion? Surely not......

Yes they are - I'm pretty sure you'd be welcome to visit them anytime you're in DK.

[JomsViking]

Yes, it sure is. The specs doesn't even show in Danish.

Website might not be the best, but the boats are great to sail, and is top work.
