A New Paradigm for Cruising

Update 27

FPB-64--Jan-29-10-114

Here’s an image to set your heart aflutter (with a little imagination). Add the sun/rain awning to the framework, move to a lovely anchorage in the tropical South Pacific, insert puffy cumulous clouds, coconut palms, and translucent warm water, and then relax with a cold drink and good book.

An alternate view would be precipitous mountains, tidewater glaciers, with humpback whales sharing your anchorage and the occasional polar bear swimming by for a look.

Either way, the flying bridge protects you from the elements, and has controls close to hand for conning.

If the weather is pleasant, you will probably want to eat up here as well.

Your meal may be prepared on this large Bar BQ on the aft deck.

There’s a nice sink for cleaning fish and washing up after using the Bar BQ.

“The 83ft-long (25m) wave-piercer...could easily be mistaken for the spawn of the Royal Navy with its unpainted battleship grey, all-aluminum body. But that day, in those conditions, it was the only boat that I would have wanted to climb aboard to face the English Channel.” --Motor Boat & Yachting
