How can anyone read the same stuff over and over? I can, if it is as interesting and informative as your books. (Especially the Encyclopedia). I just sold my O&#8217;Day 40 and I am preparing to sell my business. After the business is sold, I want to buy the last boat that I will own. ( I am 57 years old, &#038; I want to do some serious cruising) I love the Sundeer 67, but I do not know if I will be able to afford it. Are you still building boats? If so, can you give me a ballpark price of both the Sundeer 56 &#038; 67(built in aluminum). If it is not in the realm of my ability, then I will go in a different direction. If you are not building anymore, can I purchase the plans? Thank you. Tony <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<div class=\"answer\">\n<p>Hi Tony: Thanks for the compliments. To answer your questions, first, we are still doing boats, but at a much reduced pace, so we can get in a bit of cruising. If we don&#8217;t go to sea now and then, we forget how to make proper design tradeoffs!<\/p>\n<p>Second, we&#8217;ve always avoided selling our plans. Our preference is to control the entire project so everyone is guaranteed the correct outcome.<\/p>\n<p>As to costs on a custom alu. 57 or 67 type design, this varies widely with exchange rates, final specification, etc., but a rough guess would be around $1,700,000 for the 57 and maybe $2,500,000 for the 67.
