Well, at least that answers what I wanted to ask you, i.e. if there is a builder anywhere in the world of which you didn't helm more boats than...
Wow, good thing that Dick Bertram and Ray Hunt can't read your comments anymore. Anyway, if that's the reasoning and attitude on which basis you...
That would be your personal decision, and as such you are obviously fully entitled to it. It just happens to be a wrong one, and I can think of at...
Hardly surprising, considering that they entered an insolvency procedure already in 2013. A 2014 boat must have been a sort of leftover, with...
Well, the last time I've been at FLIBS, there weren't many US flagged pleasure boats either...
Well, after all that's the American way of doing business for you, folks... Pretty sure, Giacomo Costa rolled over in his Grave that night,...
See? That MD80 must have been from the pre-TCAS era. When it comes to see what is going on around you, trusting computers is better than trusting...
So, what do you use instead of jetliners, for long distance trips?
Well, it's an Italian Company that developed the thing. I suppose they might have been inspired by the Concordia. Their computerised system...
Generally speaking, I agree that maneuvering is NOT the hardest part of cruising. Anyone who think it is, obviously never experienced a rough...
ROTFL, as if that would have anything to see with the debate on comfort while cruising. Not sure if it's this comment of yours or the semantic...
I surely don't, as has already been explained. Besides, if you are implying that in rough sea catamarans don't roll, you either belong to the...
Not really. The "no heeling" requirement is nicely met by any powerboats, not only catamarans. And also with regard to the overall comfort of...
That was my point exactly. And when I replied to your post #107, the debate was on the choice of a reliable builder in general. Telling NOW that...
I'm not sure to understand your point. Let's say the boat is half done, you pay 40%, and the builder goes bust the day after. Yes, you can...
Good luck. You're saying that as if it were easy... And even if you could get to know everything, that would still be a knowledge about the past,...
Absolutely, though if what you heard is correct, there's much more to be blamed than those ports alone - regardless of how many inches/feet are...
I see your point in principle, but I must completely disagree with your last bit of math. Even without knowing the exact footprint, I bet that on...
Well, I would think that just about anything can actually fit in a quadrangle... ...including aerials and even paravanes!:) Otoh, if as i guess...
Interesting. Actually I'm not so used to consider current, because in most of my usual anchorage spots it's not so relevant. But worth a try...
