Boat: Seawind 1000xl | 31-07-2016, 16:39 | | Boat: Seawind 1000xl | boatshow, but haven't been on any of the Fboats. The main problem I see with any smaller is the lack of space. On the cats, between the hulls and the , it would seem you just get a lot more usable interior volume. I know families of four that very much enjoyed camp-cruising the jarcat, which would seem much more difficult in the smaller F-boats (dual-hull privacy, space, etc.). Some of the ones above, especially the , appear to have sacrificed performance for some very wide living areas. I think certainly the Fboats would outsail any of those small cats, though. | 31-07-2016, 18:05 | | Boat: Formerly Pearson 28-1, now just a sailing dinghy | , Tom. I'd like to keep it under $20k, if possible. That's always the problem with multis-the mono I cruised with from Tampa to Annapolis only cost me 8! (To buy...) Building some of the simpler cats myself I think would keep it in this range, especially with from the yards. I think I will look at the older DF 25. To be honest, it will be just me and maybe one other for a few years yet, so probably shouldn't dream to big about inviting other family! Every boat is a compromise of course, but with this use case, seaworthiness or big waves (grounds are just the vineyard and and of the Chesapeake), isn't a huge consideration to me; fun to sail is though, and I think that's where the and dragonfly out perform the others. On performance, have you been on the Waller 670? With the hobie wings on the edges, I was thinking it might get a bit more spirited. The hard part will be finding any of these to sail.

Multihull For Sale32′ tomcat – cool pocket cruiser we love. Gallery ImagesThis listing is for a brand new build with 6 months delivery from order.

The all-weather protection of the ingenious convertible saloon-bridgedeck provides 360 degree views and by retracting everything (centerboard, rudders and engines) she can sail in only 16″ of water.

Today's pocket cruisers make the best use of fiberglass technology and offer much beamier and voluminous hull shapes with longer and thus faster waterlines. Boats like the Hanse 315, Beneteau 31, Jeanneau 349 or the Catalina 315 have the space inside of 40 footers from the old days. And the modern designs sail so much better, too.
