Parts of a Sailboat – The Deck

By: Zeke Quezada, ASA Learn To Sail , Sailboats

Understanding the deck of a sailboat is all part of learning to sail. Essentially, the deck of a boat is both your office and your supply cabinet. This is because many of the tools required to sail a vessel are on the deck.

Sailboats come in many shapes, sizes, and forms to meet the needs of sailors with various desires and ambitions. They also reflect the styles and ideas of their designers and builders and are considered by some sailors to be an art form. The illustrations below depict a boat about 33 feet long of fairly typical design above and below deck and fitted with basic systems commonly found on cruising boats. 

The boat we are describing is typical of a boat you may be using as part of ASA 103 Basic Coastal Cruising — it’s more involved and some parts may not be found on a smaller daysailing vessel. However, there’s a lot more to a cruising boat than a cockpit and cuddy cabin. You can walk around on it, on deck, and below. And it has a few more features for which you’ll have to learn the nautical names.

Parts of the Deck of a Sailboat - Cruising Vessel

The Helm   Smaller daysailers used for ASA Basic Keelboat courses often have a tiller; this boat has a steering wheel. While it’s possible to steer this big of a boat with a tiller, and many sailors prefer the feel and response it gives when sailing, the tiller needed to provide sufficient leverage would be quite long. The wheel offers the same or even more leverage while taking up much less space in the cockpit — much of the linkage system that connects it to the rudder is beneath the cockpit.

The Cockpit   The cockpit of a cruising sailboat serves as the command center and focal point of activity while sailing. It is typically located in the recessed area of the deck where the helmsman sits or stands, and it often features storage lockers under the seats. The functionality of the cockpit is essential for helming, sail trimming, watchkeeping, and other sailing activities. 

Modern boat designs have prioritized bigger, taller, and more comfortable living quarters over the functionality of the cockpit. As a result, cockpit ergonomics involve more than comfortable seating and coaming angles. Wide-beam boats benefit from a large diameter wheel, allowing the helmsman to steer on the windward rail where sight lines are unimpeded by a dodger, mast, or headsail.

Some boats have every sail-control line led to the cockpit, which requires additional blocks or sheaves to be added to the running rigging system. 

The cockpit is self-bailing — it’s high enough above the waterline that any water that gets into it can drain overboard by gravity. Water drains through scuppers (they look like large bathtub drains) in the aft corners of the cockpit well. 

Sailing is not all tacking and jibing; the cockpit also serves as the boat’s porch, lounge, and dining room. The seats are designed to provide support and comfort when sailing and at rest.

Cockpit Stowages   Daysailers carry a fair amount of ancillary gear — dock lines, fenders, and safety gear — and a boat equipped for cruising carries a great deal more. All this stuff has to go somewhere so it’s not underfoot while the boat’s sailing, so a lot of it goes in the cockpit lockers. 

A hatch in the cockpit seat typically opens to reveal a deep locker. Such a locker is large enough to hold lots of gear, including an extra sail or two. Keeping it organized can be challenging but necessary, not so that you can find a spare line in a hurry but because often the same locker also provides access to some critical fixed equipment. That equipment may include the engine and the steering gear. Another shallow locker may exist in the cockpit, but this one is shallow because the space below is used as part of the living quarters. Finally, at the helm, you may find a hatch or two that provide access to the steering gear and other systems.

Obstacles on the Deck Obstacles are inevitable on the deck of a sailboat. When navigating on the deck, make sure to always reserve a hand for the boat to ensure your safety, maintaining three points of contact. If sailing, the safest path forward is along the windward side. Always use the handrails to keep your body closer to the boat.

Sidedeck  Your first obstacle when leaving the cockpit to go forward on the deck is the cockpit coaming, which extends aft of the trunk cabin, the area of the deck that’s raised to provide headroom in the cabin below. 

Stepping over the cockpit coaming brings you onto the side deck, which runs between the trunk cabin and the outside edge of the deck (which is often referred to as the rail because of the toerail attached there to provide secure footing). 

Just inside the toerail are the stanchions that support the lifelines. 

As you move forward, you will encounter the shrouds, the wires that support the mast laterally. They attach to the deck at the chainplates which carry the forces generated by the sails into the structure of the hull. 

Between the lower end of each wire shroud and its chainplate is a turnbuckle, which is used to tension the shroud by adjusting its length. A clevis pin connects the turnbuckle to the chainplate and a cotter pin passed through a hole on the end of the clevis pin prevents the clevis pin from backing out. Cotter pins are also fitted through the screws in the turnbuckles so they cannot unscrew and loosen. 

Foredeck When you walk forward of the mast, you come to the foredeck. Most modern sailboats have roller-furling sails, so you will not be changing a headsail on the foredeck, but you will still utilize this space when anchoring and docking.

Fairleads on each side of the bow direct docklines to two large mooring cleats mounted on the deck. 

The anchor can be found on the foredeck and is usually stowed on a stemhead fitting. This setup makes for a much easier deployment of the anchor. The stemhead fitting is a hefty stainless-steel fabrication that incorporates a roller fairlead for the anchor rode and the chainplate for the forestay. A hatch in the foredeck covers the anchor locker where the rode is stowed ready for use.

Cabin trunk

The center section of the deck is raised to form the cabin trunk, giving standing room in the cabin below. The deck in this area must be particularly strong and is reinforced to support the mast, standing rigging and sail handling equipment. The roof also has to be strong enough to withstand the pressure of large breaking waves. The small cabin windows (or lights) must be watertight. Ventilators, set into the roof allow air into the cabin. Grab-rails arc fitted along each side of the roof to provide a hold for the crew when working on deck.

Forward hatch

The forward hatch is normally fitted into the front end of the cabin trunk. Made from toughened plexiglass with a watertight seal, it is primarily for light and ventilation in the forepeak when moored, but it can also be used for easy access to the sail stowage area below. However, it should always be kept firmly closed when under way or water may enter the cabin.

Spinnaker pole stowage

The spinnaker pole is normally stowed on the forward area of one of the side decks. The most secure arrangement is to clip it onto two specially designed brackets bolted onto the deck.

On each side of the raised trunk roof run the narrow side decks. The deck edge is finished off with a raised section to prevent anyone slipping under the lifelines. The stanchions are bolted through the side decks and often incorporate eyes at the base for clipping on your harness lifeline. The headsail sheet lead tracks are set on each side deck just forward

Headsail sheet lead track of the cockpit. These allow the sheeting angle to be adjusted.

Companion way

The main access to the cabin is through the companionway. This is usually sited at the aft end of the cabin trunk and is closed by a sliding hatch and washboards (wooden partitions). The hatch should be kept closed while sailing to prevent water entering the cabin. Grab handles, fitted inside the companionway, provide a secure hold when going below or coming on deck, even when the boat is heeling.

Cruising Sailboats – Parts and Features

Compared to a Dinghy or other Small Boats, a Cruising Sailboat has more parts and features to suit the needs of people on board as well as the demands of Cruising. As the main equipment in this Sailing Variation, it is essential for all the people on board to know the different functions of each section in the Sailboat.

A Cruising Sailboat can be divided into three general components – Rigs, Deck, and the Cabin. Know the different parts, features, and functions of each component in the following sections:

Cruising Sailboat Parts – Rig

The Rig is the collective term, which refers to the Mast, Standing Rigging, spars, and the type and number of Sails by which the type is determined. For instance, a Rig with a Bermudan sloop is called a Bermudan sloop rig.

This is the unit that propels the Cruising Sailboat. It is the structure that derives energy from the Wind. Rigs have many parts and variations. In this section, know the different elements that make up the Rig:

Mainsail and Sails

The type of Rig lies in the number of Sails and the type of Mainsail. The Bermudan Mainsail is the commonly used type.

Cruising Sailboats can have different layouts of Standing Rigging, Running Rigging, and Sails. Here are the components of Rigs:

• Forestay – The forestay is a wire or rope that runs from the bow to the masthead, and together with the backstay (which runs from the masthead to the stern), supports the mast fore and aft. A headsail may be attached to it.
• Backstay – a wire running from the masthead to the stern
• Shroud – a wire or rope which supports the Mast up and gives additional support by increasing the angle created by the Spreader and the Mast at the attachment point
• Spreader – supports the Mast and keeps the Shrouds away from the Mast
• Halyard – a line or rope which raises or pulls up the sail
• Mainsheet – A line or rope This controls the angle of the mainsail to the boat’s centerline. There is only one mainsheet, which is attached to the boom and is rigged as a multi-part tackle to provide power to adjust it. On larger boats, a winch is used to adjust the mainsheet.

As mentioned earlier, Rigging and Sails are very important in Cruising, for they are the ones that drive the boat. Know the components of Rigs as well as their functions so that boat handling will be easier and enjoyable.

Sailboat Deck Parts

Modern sailboats have a lot of fittings above deck, including the components of the spars and sails together with the ropes and hardware that controls them. Other equipment is needed for anchoring, mooring, and helping ensure the safety of the crew. Make sure you understand the purpose of the equipment on your boat.

The deck is the area or platform which is especially – designed for the operation of the Cruising Sailboat. Aside from being the primary working surface, it serves as the ‘lid’ of the Hull of the Sailboat and helps in strengthening it. Decks vary in structure or layout, depending on the type of Cruising Sailboat.

The deck holds many essential pieces of gear and equipment used in boat handling. In this section, know what these parts are and learn the role each of them plays in boat operations.

These Are The Deck Parts of a Typical Sailboat

• Foredeck : The part of the deck in front of the Mast
• Pulpit : A metal frame located at the bow of the boat; this is where forward Navigation lights are fastened
• Pushpit : A metal frame located at the stern of the boat; this is where stern Navigation lights and lifebuoys are attached
• Anchor well : It is a self-draining well just aft of the pulpit holds the anchor cable and often the anchor.
• Sidedecks : Spaces between the edge of the deck and the raised Cabin trunk (if any)
• Coach Roof : Serves as the cover of the raised Cabin trunk
• Hatches : Openings which allow light and ventilation in the Cabin
• Cockpit : The primary working place of the boat
• Sprayhood : Covers and protects the Cockpit Genoa Car : Found on Sidedecks; track where the fairleads for the headsail sheet run
• Lockers : Storage compartments usually located under the seats in the Cockpit
• Sheet Winches : Winches are used to control sails, which produce loads larger than the crew can manage by hand. Most modern yachts have self-tailing winches that allow one-person operation. Winches without self-tailing jaws require two people to winch the rope—one person to wind the winch and the other to pull on the end, which is known as “tailing.”
• Lifelines : Lines that run from the Pulpit to the Pushpit on either side of the Deck

These are the basic things that you will see on the deck. Each is necessary when it comes to boat handling and other aspects of Cruising, so it is important to know how to use them properly.

Moreover, make sure to be careful when moving around the deck. Losing one’s footing and tripping on Deck gear are common when unwary crew members are on the deck.

Cruising Sailboat – Cabin Parts

One interesting component of Cruising Sailboats is the Cabin. This is the area that is nestled down in the Sailboat’s Hull. The size of the Cabin area generally depends on the length and height of the boat.

Obviously, there is just enough room for the basic gear and stuff in small Cruising Sailboats, while larger ones have spacious Cabins that can accommodate other things.

Like Rigs, the layout or arrangement of the parts of a Cabin may vary in different kinds of Cruising Sailboats.

Take a Look At The Basic Parts of a Typical Cabin:

• Galley:  This is the kitchen area. It should be kept clean since this is the place for preparing food while onboard. It should also be equipped with a stove that is securely placed, so it stays upright. Moreover, a Galley must have relatively deep sinks. The kitchen equipment in the Galley will depend on the necessity and space available. Aside from the pans, plates, and utensils, you may add other culinary tools that you need if the space allows it.
• Chart Table:  A navigator needs a place for Navigation and plotting work. This is where the Navigation Tools, nautical books and manuals, and some Communication Devices are placed.
• Head:  This compartment usually has a marine toilet, washbasin, and lockers. All crew members need to understand how to use this. Otherwise, the unpleasant job of repairing the toilet will be necessary.
• Saloon:  The Part of the Cabin for entertainment is called the Saloon. It should have a pleasant ambiance for relaxation. It must be well-ventilated with good handholds, or appendages to hold on to when the boat heels.
• Berth:  Sometimes called the sleeping quarter, Berth is the area where crew members can rest and sleep. Install lee-cloths on the sea Berth to prevent yourself from falling off the Berth when the boat heels or during rough conditions.

Maximizing space is essential in a Cruising Sailboat, so make sure to store your gear and other personal stuff securely and adequately so the Cabin will stay tidy even when under rough conditions.

Cruising Sailboats – Parts and Features – Conclusion

These are the basic components of a Cruising Sailboat. Keep in mind that you need to know the different features of the boat in order to have a safe and enjoyable experience.

From the bow to the stern

A sailing holiday is a holiday at sea... with a vitamin boost!

In fact, a sailing boat (I'm talking about a sailing boat, but what I've said is also valid for catamarans). Even if the size can feel relatively small, sailing boats hide lots of well-thought and organized spaces, each with its own peculiarities that we will discover during our holiday.

We will (soon) realize that some places are perfect for certain activities, while in others we will enjoy other moments of the day.

The sailing boat is a privileged point of view for a holiday at sea because it allows us to experience the sea... from the sea! This is no small detail...

Yacht charter: book your sailing holiday with us!

Let's start with the basics: what are the parts of a sailing boat .

A sailboat has a tapered shape. The front part is called the bow, whilst the back part is the stern.

Sailboats of the type we will be referring to here are called cabin boats because they have a living space inside the hull - namely, the cabin. Another aspect that identifies cabin boats is the keel's presence: a heavy ballast that ensures that it cannot tip over under any conditions. A cabin boat is clearly divided into an upper and lower section.

Above and below what? Above and below deck. The deck, otherwise known as the bridge, is the boat's outer surface, the one we walk on when we are outside. If we want to compare this space to your home, above you'll find the living area, and below, you'll have the sleeping area. It is above that we will spend most of our day on holiday, including meals.

The exterior and the cockpit

The external area is divided into three or four parts: Starting from the stern (we generally enter the boat from the rear, so this is in a sense our front door), we have the cockpit, which is the heart of the boat, this is where we will live most of our day, especially in summer. Bounded at the stern by the little beach and at the bow by the hatch, the opening that allows you to go below deck, the cockpit is a kind of living room of 4/6 square meters.

The cockpit, bordered by benches with soft cushions, features a helm wheel with all the nautical instruments and a superbly equipped table with lights, cup holders, and storage space for drinks and snacks.

You'll also find everything you might need to have at hand while sailing (sunglasses, hats, sun cream). The cockpit is naturally sheltered by the protected position, partially inserted inside the hull. The awning, also known as the bimini, shelters the cockpit from the sun (and rain). The canopy, also known as the sprayhood, shelters it from wind and water splashes. There is a central area in the middle of the boat with two walkways at the sides, mainly occupied by sail rigging but perfect for sunbathing as it is flat and a triangular area in the bow.

Interior and dinette

After getting off, we will have the dinette, a sort of multifunctional living area with a small but well-equipped kitchen (two gas burners, two sinks, fresh and seawater at will, an under-sink fridge with a mini freezer).

Interior and dinette of a Beneteau Oceanis 51.1

As in every house in every dinette, there is a table and chairs. Often the table is foldable to obtain two additional beds for friends passing through. On modern boats, this area, once the skipper's kingdom, is increasingly becoming the boat's technological heart, from all the monitoring takes place: the position of the boat, the battery charge, the water and fuel level, the switching on of all on-board equipment. For us, it's also where we charge our mobile phones.

This space is overlooked by the cabins and one or more bathrooms, small but very functional, in some cases with a separate shower. A sailboat, as the name implies, is characterised by the presence of sails. Sails are kept in position by the mast, which is made of aluminium. The mast is supported by strong steel cables: the one by the bow is called the forestay (to which the sail is wrapped around to form a soft sausage). The one at the stern, the forestay, often splits to facilitate boarding.

It is also excellent support for not one but two points of support. 

On the right and left sides, the mast, which can be more than 15 metres high and is subjected to considerable strain, is supported by shrouds, one or more on each side, which reach right up to the outer side of the boat and are perfect for supporting it as it passes from stern to bow. In this article, I would like to point out two parts of the boat that I am sure you will appreciate to the fullest on your next sailing holiday. The first is the calling card of every holiday sailing boat, the stern platform, which can often be folded down. It is a platform on the surface of the water almost as wide as the boat itself, and its depth varies. Still, it is always enough to get in and out of the water and do all your favourite activities: yoga, diving, a snack, a nice shower or simply enjoy the moment with your feet underwater...

Deck of the sailing yacht from above

This delightful little balcony overlooking the sea also allows easy access on board in all conditions. The second is the bow of the boat itself, where the anchor winch is located. This area is often enhanced by a seat where we can sit back and watch the landscape change, "it's something I really like to do, especially on long motorboats," says Caterina, who has just returned from the Cyclades.

Elan Impression 45

Keep in mind while you're comfortably sitting on the bow and enjoying the scenery, not to end up in the water. You don't need to hold on with your hands. A good way is to put your legs on opposite sides of a candlestick.

A candlestick?! 

Our boat is surrounded by a sort of safety railing: Let's see what it looks like: First of all, it is made up of rigid parts consisting of sturdy steel tube railings generally present at the bow and stern (pulpit) and flexible parts consisting of a set of vertical steel tubes firmly fixed to the deck of the boat (the stanchions) joined together by horizontal stainless steel cables (the dragnets).

A fine-meshed safety net can often be attached to these, which is advisable if there are children on board. What about you? What are your favourite parts of the boat?

Heavy weather houses

There are some obvious advantages to having a pilothouse on a voyaging sailboat: Even while bundled up, sailors who sit in the cold and wet on deck are predisposed to hypothermia, a condition that reduces efficiency, strength, and performance. In survival conditions, a sailor on deck is put at risk of being swept overboard or severely injured if the vessel is overwhelmed by waves or rolled. Sailors need not stay home to be protected from the elements. They need only to design or refit their boat with a well-conceived control station that will allow them to operate their vessel in rough conditions.

Pilothouses, also called deck houses, have been around for a long time, of course. They were primarily developed for engine-driven large yachts and ships because the crew no longer needed to be outdoor to handle sails and feel the nuances of wind and weather. The large house serves as a central control station, protecting the crew as well as navigation, communication, and steering equipmentandmdash;everything required to run the ship.

As pilothouses were adapted to sailing craft, designers primarily fit them on heavy displacement motor sailors like the Alden-designed Lady Helene (see accompanying illustration). On motor craft, it is an advantage to keep the helm high off the deck and/or forward for best visibility. Sailing craft pilothouses also tend to be high off the deck and sometimes quite far forward, leaving room aft for an outside cockpit and creating space for large engines and tanks beneath a raised pilothouse sole. The heavier the machinery, the more beneficial it is to center it in the vessel. Typical pilothouse heights significantly increase a vessel’s windage, raise booms, and limit mainsail areas, so, in a self-fulfilling prophecy, large auxiliaries are required for these heavy displacement, limited sail-power designs.

Since the pilothouse evolved from and over machinery, it should be no surprise that, even today, few designers have tried to create sleek pilothouses on high-performance sailing machines. When a pilothouse sailboat is mentioned, what probably comes to mind is a heavy boat with a box on top of the cabin.

Philip Rhodes boosted the evolution of pilothouses, beginning with numerous large motor-sailers and full-powered auxiliaries like the 90-foot Criterion. He preferred to reserve the deck house as a sort of living room/saloon housing a navigation station and electronics. He kept the steering gear aft in a split, upper level cockpit that was also covered with a roof, under which he had room to put a lower level of cabins. This is now a familiar and traditional arrangement, but Rhodes’ inventive layouts extended to pure sailing craft when he developed stylish and efficient doghouses.

Like a pilothouse, a doghouse is that part of the cabin that is raised above the line of the longer trunk cabin or otherwise flush deck, but unlike a pilothouse, the doghouse may be open to the cockpit. Often the companionway is placed under this fixed dodger. In Philip L. Rhodes and His Yacht Designs, Richard Henderson credits Kirawan’s cockpit shelter for helping her win the blustery 1936 Bermuda race, beating many larger boats. The cockpit shelter, “. . . kept the crew dry and comfortable, thereby boosting its morale, and it also made the crew, thus protected, a bit less inclined to shorten down. Kirawan might well have been driven just a little harder than were her competitors without doghouses.” Hard dodgers

On Kirawan, the doghouse served only as a solid dodger, sheltering the forward end of the cockpit seats. Rhodes later fully developed his doghouse on boats like Thunderhead. On her, a chart table and instruments were also housed and protected under the roof. A plexiglass bulkhead separated the interior from the cockpit, letting in lots of light to the settee and table below. Those below could see everything going on in the cockpit and could also communicate or pass out sandwiches through a hatch in the bulkhead. Rhodes carried the trunk cabin eyebrow all the way aft on his earlier designs, creating an added-on appearance to the doghouse atop the trunk cabin, but on boats like Thunderhead he stopped the eyebrow forward of the doghouse and enlarged the doghouse deadlights, thereby better integrating it aesthetically into the cabin profile.

No matter what one thinks of short-handed racing like the singlehanded transatlantic race, originally called OSTAR, competitors realized almost immediately that inside steering and control stations would give them a better chance to get to the other side of the ocean intact, and would gain them a competitive advantage to boot. Without having to battle outside elements, the better-rested crew was ready to deal with routine labors or emergencies and could keep a more constant watch for passing ships without being on deck. With an inside steering and control station, navigation, communications, steering, and sail trim could all be monitored and coordinated from the same spot. It is no surprise then that most of the contemporary evolution of inside steering and control stations has come from the realm of what I call adventure races. Many of the features first found on adventure racers are now finding their way into voyaging designs.

Blondie Hasler, the prime mover of the first OSTAR in 1960, wanted the race to serve as a test bed for innovative design that would lead to faster, safer, more comfortable boats. It seemed impossible to build a small boat with enough room for a pilothouse, but Hasler simply treated his entire cabin on Jester as the pilothouse. He completely decked over the Folk Boat, fit it with a Chinese lugsail rig to reduce sail handling, and had access to the deck through side hatches or a central round hatch.

Jock McLeod decided to develop Hasler’s concept with the 47-foot Ron Glas, designed by Angus Primrose for voyaging and the 1972 OSTAR. Ron Glas featured a relatively normal cabin forward with a small central cockpit/control position surrounded by a raised doghouse and aft cabin. A sliding hatch covered the control position and was fit with a circular hatch with revolving hood so McLeod could reach out and handle the sails. A second cockpit was aft, reserved for good weather. McLeod crossed the Atlantic in 1972 without having to put on his foul weather gear.

Since 1960, electronics have been significantly miniaturized, and hydraulics allow us to use small wheels to steer even large craft. This has allowed designers to explore many options for compact inside steering and control stations to fit even small boats.Plexiglass bubbles

Hasler’s and McLeod’s circular hatches evolved into the bubble hatch, which is much more useful than a flat hatch because one can stick one’s head up into it and really get a good look around. In the 1976 OSTAR, Mike Birch sailed the 30-foot, diminutive trimaran, Third Turtle to third place behind the maxi-monohull Pen Duick VI and the 237-foot Club Med, proving efficiency determines average passage speed more than size alone. Mike raced through storms perched in his coffin-like cabin on the head of his berth, steering with a push-pull bar with his head in a bubble. Before long, the bubble hatch became a trade mark of short-handed offshore boats and so popular that Goiot began mass producing them for the voyaging public.

In the same race, Polish designer/skipper Kazimierz Jaworski returned to the Rhodes approach and finished just behind Birch. On Spaniel, Jaworski fit a doghouse on a flush deck, aft of the main cabin bulkhead and over the forward end of the cockpit. Under the roof, he sat in a sports car bucket seat and steered within easy reach of all sail controls. Although this arrangement is less protected than a fully-enclosed one, particularly when the wind is aft of abeam and breaking waves come from the aft quarter, the skipper has more immediate access to all sail controls. Anyone who is prone to seasickness is probably better off sitting in fresh air under a doghouse that is open to the cockpit and close to the leeward rail. Such a chair is also much more comfortable and secure than the typical cockpit seat.

Fabric dodgers are, of course, almost universally used on voyaging boats and serve nearly the same purpose as the doghouse as found on Thunderhead or Spaniel. However, they are also quite expensive, wear out, provide less clear visibility, and can be more easily swept away by a large boarding wave than a solid doghouse. The many sailors who leave their dodgers erected permanently would probably be better off retrofitting their boats with solid dodgers or doghouses. To help ventilate these solid dodgers in good weather, the forward deadlights can be made to open, or smaller opening ports can be installed in the large deadlights. If one places deadlights in the roof, the crew can keep an eye on sail trim and the rigging. The roof is a perfect spot to place solar panels. Boom crutches or mainsheet travelers are often built into them. If one leads halyards or sheets to the protected foxhole under a doghouse, one must make sure that winches are positioned so that there is good clearance between the winch handles and the structure so that the crew does not routinely trade the skin on their knuckles for a tight ship.

Boats can be even more easily retrofit with bubble hatches either on the companionway hatch or farther forward. On boats like John Martin’s 1986 BOC contender Tuna Marine, a seat and secondary steering wheel was placed on a pedestal under a bubble mounted on deck amidships.

One problem with bubbles is that they have a tendency to fog. Some sailors have fit small vents to the top of their bubbles or have simply learned to live with a towel close by. Another problem is that the crew often cannot see over the raised weather deck when the boat is heeled.Sliding hatch

I developed a sort of miniature sliding pilothouse for a 21-foot transatlantic pocket cruiser in 1978. Like Hasler, I consider the cockpit a fair-weather nest for an offshore boat, but a dangerous place in bad weather and usurper of valuable cabin area. The companionway in Napoleon Solo was fairly far forward, giving space for a large double berth under the cockpit. The hatch, built of lexan with curved profile and flat sides, was bigger than a bubble, never fogged, was less claustrophobic, and provided better visibility. Even with the boat well heeled, I could duck my head and see clearly to weather through the cabin deadlights. I could reach out through a removed washboard and make all sail adjustments without getting out. I could also glance down and just forward to my chart table, use the radio just to one side, and cook on the other. A tiller and autopilot closely paralleled the cabintop and were out of the way. The companionway step served as a seat and bulkheads on either side provided good back support on either tack. When knocked down past 90 degrees in mid-Atlantic, my mate remained securely in place on the seat while I too was safe below as green water covered the hatch.

Other sailors have opted to use fixed lexan canopies over their companionway hatches. Like my sliding hatch, they are not so prone to fogging and serve as the ultimately streamlined dodger. One 1984 OSTAR skipper employed a mirage fighter jet canopy.

In recent years, large canopies have been custom-fitted to racing craft, particularly to multihulls. The deck on the around-the-world racer, Ecruil d’Aquitaine, is opened up under the canopy so that the canopy serves as a small cabin top. In good weather, when the hatch on Napoleon Solo was slid forward over the deck, it served as a fine solar drier, making soggy crackers crisp again and drying the dishes. Heat is one advantage and disadvantage of lexan hatches and canopies. In cold weather the solar collection of the canopy or hatch is a blessing, but one might want to fit curtains inside a canopy to fend off the sun in the tropics, as did the skipper of Ecruil d’Aquitaine. Boats designed primarily for tropical latitudes may opt for opaque roofs.

Art Paine designed Air Force for the 1986 BOC with a rather conventional looking short trunk cabin, but strategically-placed deadlights served to give the skipper an all around view from his chair below decks. The cabin top extended aft over the forward part of the cockpit, thereby also serving as a doghouse as on Thunderhead. With a boat like Air Force, the pilothouse concept has come full circle, being fully integrated into a short trunk cabin and demonstrating how many boats need no addition of a doghouse or bubble hatch to create an inside control station as long as good all-around visibility is provided. Careful placement of an interior helm and new deadlights may transform many a trunk cabin into a pilothouse as attractive as Air Force’sStreamlined pilothouse

When I saw Credit Agricole for the first time, just before the start of the 1982-83 BOC Singlehanded Around the World Race, I was impressed by the boat as a possible high-performance cruiser. Designer Guy Ribadeau Dumas had virtually reinvented the pilothouse and left plenty of room for normal voyaging accommodations.

Since engines aren’t allowed in such a race, he fit the boat with a normal auxiliary placed aft of the pilothouse, which kept the house profile quite low. Through lexan wraparound deadlights, the skipper gained good visibility of the whole horizon. Sitting in his comfy chair, skipper Philippe Jeantot was surrounded by a wheel, full navigational equipment, sailing computer, radios, and a large chart table. A pilot berth and head were just to starboard. Jeantot could also step up to the cockpit and sit under the protection of a doghouse raised just a bit over the pilothouse roof. With Credit Agricole Jeantot set numerous records, in part because the position from which he ran his boat was the most comfortable on the boat. BOC racers since have commonly employed similar pilothouse/doghouse designs.

It would, of course, require substantial chainsaw plastic surgery to retrofit an existing yacht with the type of layout on Credit Agricole. For those seeking a new boat, however, similar arrangements are now being drawn and built. One need only look at the newest yachts from Kanter or the latest cruising designs by Chuck Paine to see the influence of long-distance, shorthanded racing and the evolution of the pilothouse.

When one decides one wants to employ a protected steering and control station, the many compromises involved must be faced. Should one choose a station that offers full or partial service, for instance? That is, does one need to stand watches, steer, navigate, communicate, trim sails, and control machinery from one spot? Does one need to enclose the station entirely or should one also provide outside protection, especially for those prone to seasickness or to enable the crew to quickly reach sail controls that are difficult or impossible to place below decks? Should one add a pilothouse or should one treat the cabin trunk itself and the main saloon as the deckhouse/control center?

In any case, sailors now have a wide choice between proven combinations of pilothouses, doghouses, bubble hatches, canopies, and trunk cabin alterations when creating a new boat or retrofitting an old, and the choices need not be ugly or inefficient.

To keep one’s body dry, warm, comfortable, and safe while being assaulted by rain, spray, and frigid winds, the modern voyager is given a choice between scores of foul weather clothing options — oilies, dry suits, survival suits, welded plastics, Gortex, coated nylon, neoprenes — but few sailors seem to ask, “Why put up with the assault at all”? Perhaps sailors just figure a certain amount of stoic machismo is required to venture upon the sea; perhaps they figure, if they want to be comfortable, they should stay home. Certainly there will always be times when one must venture to a tossing foredeck to wrestle with a sail or storm anchor, but just as the crew must look after their vessel, so the vessel should look after the crew, and most boats, quite frankly, could do a better job.

What is a Sailboat Centerboard?

Last Updated by

Daniel Wade

June 15, 2022

A sailboat centerboard is a retractable fin that protrudes from the bottom of the hull. The centerboard keeps the boat stable and on course.

Centerboards are an important and often overlooked part of a sailboat, but they're essential to stability and effective navigation. Centerboards perform the function of a keel and keep the boat on course regardless of wind direction. Centerboards are primarily found on small trailerable vessels, which vary in length from 12 to 25 feet.

Table of contents

How a Centerboard Works

Centerboards look similar to fin keels, but they have one notable difference: they're retractable. Small sailboats use centerboards for stability and to keep a straight course, especially when sailing windward .

Technically speaking, a centerboard is a rudimentary form of a hydrofoil. In practicality, it's like a rudder that always stays amidships. This is beneficial, as it forces the boat to track a straight course regardless of what direction the wind is blowing.

Without the centerboard, the wind would push the sailboat in whatever direction it was blowing. Tacking would be nearly impossible, and attempting to sail windward could simply knock down the boat. In this sense, the centerboard performs the same function as a fixed-keel.

Centerboard Sailboat Characteristics

Centerboard sailboats are typically less than 25 feet in length and designed for shallow water. In fact, centerboard boats are perfect for shallow water. Cruising in lakes and rivers is a joy with a centerboard boat, as the board can be retracted for towing, beaching, or skimming over shallow water. Centerboard sailboats are the ultimate shoal-draft vessels.

Centerboards descend from a hollow cavity in the center of the boat. This cavity is called the centerboard trunk. Some centerboards are removable and slide vertically into the centerboard trunk. Others are hinged or enclosed, allowing them to be raised and lowered from inside the cabin without removal.

Removable Centerboards

Removable centerboards are usually found on the smallest sailboats. These blades tend to be roughly twice the length of how they look from under the boat. This is because the centerboard trunk has to be above the waterline. Remember, the centerboard trunk is effectively a hole in the boat, so it can't be the same height as the water.

Enclosed Centerboards

Enclosed centerboards are common on mid-sized and larger 'small' boats. They're especially common on vessels equipped with cabins. The primary benefit of an enclosed centerboard is water tightness, as the board is housed within a sealed centerboard trunk.

Enclosed centerboards can be raised and lowered from inside the cabin and never needs to be removed from the boat. They're also shorter (overall) than removable centerboards, as they don't mount to the very top of the high centerboard trunk.

The primary drawback of enclosed centerboards is increased complexity and access issues. But in most cases, small centerboard craft are not usually in the water long enough for severe growth issues. Additionally, retracting the board can protect it from excessive marine gunk.

Hinged Centerboards

Hinged centerboards (or 'swing keel' centerboards) are the most common enclosed variety. Hinged centerboards pivot on a forward hinge. They're long and thin and sometimes stow in a hidden centerboard trunk that's mounted to the bottom of the hull.

These 'stealth' centerboard trunks free up cabin space at the expense of a few inches of draft. Hinged centerboards offer an increased level of grounding safety, as they retract on their own if they hit the ground (instead of shearing off). It's the collapsing steering column of sailboat keels .

Advantages of Centerboard Sailboats

The primary advantage of a centerboard boat is its inherent shoal-draft capability. That means centerboard boats can go a lot closer to shore than fixed-keel vessels. They can even go on shore, and drying out during low tide is rarely hazardous. They sit upright on dry land, and they're easy to trailer around.

The cost to construct, own, and maintain a centerboard cruiser is often far less than a traditional fixed- keel sailboat . This is primarily because you usually don't need a crane to pull it out of the water. Centerboard boats are often small and light enough to leave on a trailer, and their small size avoids excessive marina fees.

Disadvantages of Centerboard Sailboats

Can you cross an ocean in a centerboard sailboat? Most would caution against it. Some would say, "absolutely not," but it has happened a time or two. The issues with centerboard sailboats are size, displacement, draft, and stability, which cause problems in rough weather.

Most centerboard sailboats are only comfortable in calm coastal and inland waters. Conditions aboard a shoal-draft sailboat in foul weather range from uncomfortable to downright perilous, which is a major tradeoff. Additionally, small centerboard sailboats typically lack the cabin and storage space necessary for seagoing provisions.

Also, most small centerboard sailboats simply aren't designed for extended cruising. Things like generators, VHF radios, large freshwater tanks, and bathroom facilities usually aren't up to the task on small boats.

Centerboard Sailboat Propulsion

The smallest centerboard sailboats, such as Sunfish and Laser racers, have no propulsion system other than the sail itself. However, anything beyond 15 feet in length will probably have some alternative propulsion. Small boats have an oar or two on board, but most utilize a 5 to 10-horsepower outboard motor.

Inboard motors are rare, but a one or two-cylinder marine diesel can sometimes be found below the cockpit of a centerboard cruiser. Some small 'motor-sailer' boats have inboard engines and a centerboard for sailing.

Best Centerboard Sailboats for Cruising

Centerboard sailboats are ideal for coastal and inland cruising, and many of these pocket-sized vessels include surprisingly comfortable accommodations. These aren't dinghies or converted rowboats; they're serious sailing vessels in a compact package. Here are a few of the best 'all-around' centerboard sailboats available today.

Catalina 22

The Catalina 22 is one of the most popular sailboats ever built. It has the profile of its larger cousins (like the Catalina 27) but features a compact swing keel centerboard instead of a fin keel . At 22 feet long, the Catalina 22 is about as hardy as centerboard cruisers get.

And thanks to its retractable hinged centerboard, there's enough cabin space for a V-berth, porta-potty, stove, sink, settee, and a convertible dining area berth. The trailerable Catalina 22 is widely available on the used market, often for entry-level pricing.

West Wight Potter 19

The West Wight Potter 19 is a small centerboard pocket cruiser with a cult following. It's a fiberglass V-bottom trailer sailboat with a spacious cabin, retractable centerboard, and foldable mast. This little cruiser is capable and convenient, and it's still produced today.

West Wight Potter sailboats are famous for being (quite literally) unsinkable. They're loaded with flotation foam and stay afloat even when completely flooded. Plus, they're easy to sail, and they have an enormous amount of natural stability.

The Hunter 22 is a remarkably well-balanced centerboard cruising boat. Like the Catalina 22, this Hunter sailboat features a compact swing-type retractable centerboard. It has a spacious cabin with room to accommodate the whole family on short voyages.

Hunter designed this compact cruising sloop with a masthead rig, which is simple to operate and robust. These vessels were only produced for a few years in the 80s, but variants are plentiful, and they're plenty of fun to sail.

Centerboard Vs. Fixed Keel

Are you interested in buying a sailboat ? Deciding between a centerboard and a fixed keel is an important decision that shouldn't be overlooked. If you're looking for a trailerable weekender for short voyages and an occasional offshore run, then consider a centerboard. They're cheap and easy to store in or out of the water.

Centerboard sailboats are also ideal for island hopping, as long as the islands aren't too far from your homeport. Florida to the Bahamas is a common and manageable journey for cruising centerboard boats.

And since centerboard sailboats tend to be smaller, it's important to consider how much provision storage you'll need for the journey. Running out of food or fresh water isn't much fun in the middle of the ocean.

Fixed keelboats are ideal for extended offshore voyages and coastal cruising, especially in choppy waters. A fixed keel cruising boat offers superior roll comfort, stability, and handling in a wide range of weather conditions. They're safer in storms as well. For serious sailing, it's difficult to find an ideal alternative.

S&S 34 is a 33 ′ 5 ″ / 10.2 m monohull sailboat designed by Sparkman & Stephens and built by Swarbrick & Swarbrick and Aquafibre Ltd. starting in 1968.

Rig and Sails

Auxilary power, accomodations, calculations.

The theoretical maximum speed that a displacement hull can move efficiently through the water is determined by it's waterline length and displacement. It may be unable to reach this speed if the boat is underpowered or heavily loaded, though it may exceed this speed given enough power. Read more.

Classic hull speed formula:

Hull Speed = 1.34 x √LWL

Max Speed/Length ratio = 8.26 ÷ Displacement/Length ratio .311 Hull Speed = Max Speed/Length ratio x √LWL

Sail Area / Displacement Ratio

A measure of the power of the sails relative to the weight of the boat. The higher the number, the higher the performance, but the harder the boat will be to handle. This ratio is a "non-dimensional" value that facilitates comparisons between boats of different types and sizes. Read more.

SA/D = SA ÷ (D ÷ 64) 2/3

• SA : Sail area in square feet, derived by adding the mainsail area to 100% of the foretriangle area (the lateral area above the deck between the mast and the forestay).
• D : Displacement in pounds.

Ballast / Displacement Ratio

A measure of the stability of a boat's hull that suggests how well a monohull will stand up to its sails. The ballast displacement ratio indicates how much of the weight of a boat is placed for maximum stability against capsizing and is an indicator of stiffness and resistance to capsize.

Ballast / Displacement * 100

Displacement / Length Ratio

A measure of the weight of the boat relative to it's length at the waterline. The higher a boat’s D/L ratio, the more easily it will carry a load and the more comfortable its motion will be. The lower a boat's ratio is, the less power it takes to drive the boat to its nominal hull speed or beyond. Read more.

D/L = (D ÷ 2240) ÷ (0.01 x LWL)³

• D: Displacement of the boat in pounds.
• LWL: Waterline length in feet

Comfort Ratio

This ratio assess how quickly and abruptly a boat’s hull reacts to waves in a significant seaway, these being the elements of a boat’s motion most likely to cause seasickness. Read more.

Comfort ratio = D ÷ (.65 x (.7 LWL + .3 LOA) x Beam 1.33 )

• D: Displacement of the boat in pounds
• LOA: Length overall in feet
• Beam: Width of boat at the widest point in feet

Capsize Screening Formula

This formula attempts to indicate whether a given boat might be too wide and light to readily right itself after being overturned in extreme conditions. Read more.

CSV = Beam ÷ ³√(D / 64)

From BlueWaterBoats.org :

Of all the Sparkman and Stephens production yachts, the S&S 34 has become the most celebrated and perhaps the most successful; no small feat given Sparkman and Stephens’ status as one of the world’s most prestigious and long lived yacht design offices. At the time, designer Olin Stephens (1908-2008) said, “We hope and believe that the S&S 34 will make a good all-round boat, so as to demonstrate in a fairly small package that a good boat for offshore racing will also be a good boat for cruising.”

The words were quite prophetic, the S&S 34 had a successful career as an IOR racer before becoming the boat choice for single-handed record breaking, and eventually earning a great reputation as a blue water cruising boat. The boat has legendary seaworthiness and is a joy to sail being beautifully balanced and easy to single hand.

The S&S 34 was conceived shortly after Olin Stephens designed the 1967 and 1970 Americas Cup victor Intrepid which interestingly was the first 12 Metre to have a separate rudder and keel, an innovation the S&S 34 retained. The design was commissioned in 1968 by a British yachtsman by the name of Michael Winfield. His boat Morningtown was a 36 foot wooden one tonner designed for RORC racing, it impressed him so much he asked Sparkman and Stephens to prepare plans for a production boat. The S&S 34 was the result. The first boat produced was Morning Cloud which went on to win its class in the Sydney Hobart in 1969.

Stephens recounts Winfield, “He set up shop in England, I’m not sure how many he built, a dozen or so, but he was not an experienced boat builder, and he didn’t continue the work. The moulds and tooling were sold to some other builder there, and they built a few more there.”

Thus Winfield & Partners sold one of its two molds to a boatbuilding concern called Aquafibre who continued production until 1974. These hulls were often finished by other boatyards. Some boats found their way to the US where they were sold as the Palmer Johnson 34.

However it was in Australia that the S&S prospered. Downunder, the second set of Winfield molds were owned by Swarbrick Brother Yachts in Western Australia and between the years of 1969 – 1984 the three Swarbrick brothers Tom, Terry and Harley built 34 boats. The company eventually failed under bankruptcy and the molds were then sold to Maybrook Marine of NSW in 1986 who produced a further 4 boats over the following three years. The molds were then stored until 2003 when they found their way back to Western Australia by way of Mike Finn of Cottesloe Yachts, and under consultation with Sparkman and Stephens, boat production was adapted to use the latest in foam sandwich with vacuum infusion technology. These new “Constellation” class boats sold by Cottesloe Yachts were introduced in 2004 and are in current production, built by an all new Swarbrick company called Swarbrick and Swarbrick, owned by Tom Swarbrick’s son Glenn. These new boats are 25% lighter in the hull, are physically stiffer, and exhibit better impact strength.

In total, between 50 – 100 boats were built in the UK and Glenn Swarbricks reports 126 boats coming off the mould in Australia, of which 3 are of the latest “Constellation” class boats built with the latest foam-sandwich GRP technology.

Record Breaker

The boat raced successfully, quickly notching up race victories including future British prime minister Ted Heath’s Morning Cloud winning its class in the Sydney Hobart in 1969, before it became the boat of choice for solo circumnavigation attempts.

In 1981 Jon Sanders set out in his S&S 34 Perie Banou to complete a double-circumnavigation via Cape Horn. Sailing non-stop and solo he set 12 world records including longest distance sailed by any yacht, covering 48,510 miles and longest continuous voyage at sea totaling 419 days.

At age 17, David Dicks set out in 1996, to successfully claim the youngest to circumnavigate solo non-stop via Cape Horn, sailing his Mum’s S&S 34, Seaflight . Jesse Martin bettered the record in Lionheart , completing in 1999 aged 18. Inspired by Martin’s journey, Jessica Watson between 2009-2010 completed her own circumnavigation in Ella’s Pink Lady claiming the youngest solo unassisted at age sixteen (a record that held for only 20 months before Laura Dekker’s sailed home in her Ginn Fizz 37 in January 2012, also at age sixteen).

Boat Configuration

The boat has a remarkably modern shape for a design conceived in 1967. Looking down from above, the hull has a definite diamond shape with a fine bow and a narrow stern. The lines show a short waterline, long overhangs, generous tumblehome and for its era, a relatively high freeboard. Below the waterline is a short fin keel, with nearly all the ballast right in the middle of the boat and a skeg-hung rudder near the very aft. In all a very innovative configuration for its day.

The S&S 34 has a relatively tall masthead rig with a high aspect mainsail and an enlarged foresail, a configuration that became popular in racers in the years to come.

Down below, the headroom in the standard Australian cabin is 6′ 1″ which tapers an inch lower at the main bulkhead. There’s a sea-going berth located on the port aft quarter, with a navigation station slightly forward. To starboard is a the galley. Hanging lockers and a head is forward of the saloon and there is a rather tight V-berth at the forepeak with headroom of 5′ 10″.

MkII versions introduced improved hydrodynamic efficiencies with changes to the keel and rudder. The new keel was deeper with a straighter leading edge and an improved aerofoil section, while the rudder changed to a curved spade rudder hung from a smaller skeg.

Rigs came in two options; a cruising rig, and a racing rig, 2ft taller. In the British boats as well as the early Australian boats had the forestay terminated aft of the bow but on the later Australian boats it was taken right to the end of the bow. There were also variations in the rig during the 1980s, where some boats had a keel-stepped mast and others a deck stepped mast with a much larger cross-section.

The standard engine position is located amidships which provides optimal weight distribution helping seagoing motion, some of the later cruising focused boats, after the advent of lighter engines had the engines located under the cockpit.

The original deck moulds from Winfield had the deck recessed below the sheerline which created a toerail, and the cabin was shaped with a doghouse with a lower forward cabin trunk. When Swarbrick Bros acquired the moulds, they opted to build their own deck mould to improve forward headroom. This has resulted in the Australian boats having a flush cabin trunk, and the sharper observer will notice the deck has been raised flush to being level with the sheerline. Another minor change was a slightly truncated bow to fit the forestay tang.

Over 40 years on, the S&S 34 is still a quick boat. The hull is easily driven and by the numbers only 20hp is required to drive the boat at hull-speed, however owners report less in practice.

When the boat was introduced the S&S 34 was regarded as having exceptional speed to windward and in heavy weather. Even today the boat is hard to beat to windward in more than 10 knots, in fact owners have reported throwing in tacks of 80 degrees.

Her 50% ballast ratio results in a stiff boat, with the first reef thrown in at hefty 25 knots of wind. As the boat heels, the waterline length increases significantly; according to Olin’s design spec, the optimum angle of heel is 23.5 degrees, but don’t expect a dry ride, the S&S 34 is a wet boat like most Sparkman & Stephens designs of that era.

Buyer Notes

There is an active market for the S&S 34 in Australia, no doubt aided by an active owners association. It’s recommended prospective buyers contact them via their online discussion forum when researching. As of 2010, the asking price of boats is in the range of: 1968-1980 $55k-90k AUD

A new Constellation class boat from Cottlesloe Yachts and built by Swarbrick and Swarbrick , depending on fitout, is in the range of $226k-$330k AUD. Hull and deck kits start at $79k.

Crealock 37

A conservative boat that is sold as a.

The Crealock 37 is the largest boat built by Pacific Seacraft, a California company that has carved a comfortable and ever-growing niche in the boat market by specializing in smaller, high-quality cruising boats. Pacific Seacraft boats could be termed “modern traditional,” with pronounced sheerlines, traditional bronze hardware, moderate displacement, and conservative modern underbodies.

This boat was first built by Cruising Consultants, a short-lived California company that built 16 Crealock 37s in 1978 and 1979. In 1980, Pacific Seacraft acquired the tooling.

There’s no way around it. To someone who appreciates a traditional-looking boat, the Crealock 37 is about as pretty as they get. The canoe stern isn’t for everyone, but Bill Crealock draws it perfectly, in a way that both Will Fife, Jr, and L. Francis Herreshoff would have appreciated.

Because freeboard is fairly low, the cabin trunk must be quite tall to give good headroom below. Its height is somewhat disguised by low bulwarks and teak eyebrow trim dropped down below the actual top of the cabin trunk.

The Crealock 37 was conceived and marketed as a go-anywhere boat, and in both design and construction it fits the bill. That’s not to say it’s perfect— no boat is.

Hull And Deck

This is a conservative boat, devoid of construction razzmatazz. The hull is an uncored, solid laminate. For those living in colder climates and wanting more insulation, the boat can be built with either foam or balsa core, but these are added to the normal hull layup, resulting in a somewhat heavier boat with slightly reduced interior volume.

Longitudinal and transverse stiffness are provided by a full-length molded liner which contains recesses for bulkheads, floors, major furniture components, engine beds, and water tanks. A liner like this can be a mixed blessing. If properly designed and installed, it adds considerable rigidity to the hull structure, and greatly speeds assembly of the boat’s interior. Poorly designed or improperly installed, liners can inadequately support the thin outer skin of the boat.

In the Crealock 37, numerous openings in the liner allow it to be securely glassed to the hull, using resin and fiberglass fabric. This is the way it should be done.

Hull liners are not without disadvantages. They constrain the interior layout to that defined by the liner, and they can make later installation of additions to the wiring and plumbing systems difficult.

One unusual feature of the Crealock 37’s construction is that the water tanks are an integral part of the hull liner. The sides, ends, and bottom of the tanks are molded. The tops of the tanks are Formica-faced plywood. This is a reasonable way to do the job. We would not recommend using the inside of the hull itself as part of the tank, since this could aggravate a hull’s tendency to blister.

The main structural bulkhead at the forward end of the main cabin is both glassed and bolted in place. Since the bulkhead and compression post must absorb the load of the deck-stepped mast, this belt-and braces attachment is a good idea. Below the hull liner, mast compression is transferred to the hull via a glass-filled PVC pipe. This is a reasonable installation, and we have never seen signs of excess compression loading on a Crealock 37’s deck.

Chainplates are stainless steel straps bolted through the topsides. This is a simple, strong, leak-proof installation. But aesthetically, it breaks up the clean flow of the sheerline, and we have seen chainplates like this bleed brown oxidation down the topsides after lengthy ocean passages. Functionally it means the shroud base is a bit wider than necessary, slightly constraining upwind performance.

Hardware and its installation are first-rate. Most of the deck hardware is bronze, and it is both well designed and well finished. Since Pacific Seacraft recently changed porthole suppliers, the familiar trademark oval ports have been replaced with more rectangular models. We think the oval ones look better, but according to the builder, the new ones seal better and have an improved spigot design.

Hull and deck are joined together at the bulwarks. At the top of the bulwarks, there is an inward-turning hull flange. On the deck, the edge of the molding turns upward to form the inner bulwark face, then outward at the top to overlap the hull flange. The joint is bedded in polyurethane sealant and throughbolted. The top of the bulwark is covered with a teak cap. You can’t fault this type of joint.

All through hull openings are equipped with either ball valves or tapered-plug seacocks, with the fittings bolted through the hull. This is the right way to do it, but it makes it difficult to use flush skin fittings.

Fiberglass work is excellent. Even on dark-colored hulls, there is no roving print-through, and there are no visible hard spots in the topsides. We have found minor gelcoat cracks around the mainsheet traveler supports, but these may well result from pulling the deck from the mold, rather than from stress on the traveler itself.

Decks are cored with plywood, rather than the more commonly used end-grain balsa. A balsa cored deck is both stiffer and lighter than a plywood cored deck, but you have to put plywood or glass inserts in the balsa deck under heavily-loaded hardware.

The keel is an external lead casting, bolted to the hull with stainless steel bolts. A conventional lowaspect fin keel is standard, but many owners choose the shoal draft Scheel keel.

The mast is built by LeFiell. It is untapered, and is normally supplied with external halyards. Internal halyards are optional, and while unnecessary on a cruising boat, they do reduce windage and neaten things up around the mast.

Halyard winches are Lewmar 16 self-tailers. At least one of the winches should be upgraded in size so that the smallest member of the crew can hoist the largest member to the masthead if necessary.

The mast and boom are painted. Painted spars look great when they’re new, but they tend to get a little bedraggled after a few years of cruising. Anodized spars aren’t as pretty, but they usually hold up better over time.

The rig is simple and straightforward, rugged and functional. It’s not what you’d put on a racing boat, but it won’t fall down in heavy weather, either.

Engine And Mechanical Systems

Over the years, Pacific Seacraft has used both Universal and Yanmar diesels in the Crealock 37. The engine currently used is a four cylinder, 100 cubic inch Yanmar 4JHE, normally aspirated. This is about the ideal size engine for the boat, and it’s a very good installation.

A hinged panel lets you lift up the top of the engine box for quick access. You must remove the companionway ladder to get at the front of the engine, which you’d need to do to change the water pump impeller or alternator belt. A removable panel in the quarterberth gives access to the left side of the engine, as well as to the stuffing box. The engine compartment itself is properly sound insulated.

Two 120 amp-hour batteries are standard. The 55- amp alternator supplied is just barely adequate for the standard batteries. If you want more electrical storage capacity, you’ll also need to upgrade the alternator.

Wiring and plumbing are neat and workmanlike. Surprisingly, however, some components of the electrical and plumbing systems that should be standard on a boat of this quality, like lightning grounding, hot and cold pressure water, and an electric bilge pump, are options.

Handling Under Sail

You can have the Crealock 37 rigged as a sloop, cutter, or yawl. A divided rig offers no advantages on a boat this size. A double headsail rig is highly desirable, particularly if you use a headsail roller reefing system, since it allows you to hank on a heavy weather staysail without having to remove the genoa from the furling headstay.

The optional cutter rig adds to the price of the boat, but it’s worth it.

Another popular option is the singlehander’s package, which shifts halyards, reefing lines, jib downhaul, and halyard winches from the mast to the top of the cabin trunk at the front of the cockpit. Unfortunately, this puts the halyard winches directly in the way ofa cockpit dodger, preventing you from swinging the winch handle in a complete circle.

Genoa sheet winches are mounted on the molded cockpit coamings. Winches are adequately sized.

The lead from the genoa track through the turning blocks to the winches needs to be altered slightly to reduce friction. An angled shim under the turning blocks would do the job. We’d also go up one size on the turning blocks. Turning blocks are very heavily loaded—roughly twice the sheet load—and are frequently undersized.

Since the boat is fairly narrow by modern standards, the outboard chainplates are only a slight compromise in windward performance. The typical cruiser/racer of this length is almost a foot wider, meaning that sheeting angles on the Crealock 37 are roughly the same as they would be on the cruiser/ racer whose chainplates were 6″ inboard.

The Crealock 37’s rig is very well proportioned. The mainsail’s aspect ratio of about 2.7:1 is about ideal, and the main itself is only 272 square feet—no sweat for one person to handle. With a divided foretriangle and headsail roller furling, sailing this boat is a piece of cake.

Compared to a cruiser/racer, the Crealock’s waterline is short by contemporary standards. This pushes her displacement/length ratio to 334, decidedly toward  the heavy end of the spectrum. But with a sailarea/displacement (SA/D) ratio of about 15.6:1, the boat offers pretty good performance in anything other than drifting conditions.

The displacement/length ratio is a tricky number to use. It is meaningless for evaluating performance without considering the SA/D ratio at the same time. For a 37′ boat, the Crealock 37’s displacement is moderate. For a serious 37′ cruising boat her displacement is actually fairly light.

All in all, the Crealock 37 will perform perfectly satisfactorily under sail, particularly on long passages.

Handling Under Power

The Yanmar engine is plenty of power for a boat of this displacement and type.

The boat was designed with a strut-mounted exposed prop. However, this was modifed to provide a prop aperture in the skeg supporting the rudder. The aperture is nicely faired, and the position of the prop immediately in front of the rudder gives good flow over the rudder for steering.

A two-bladed prop is standard, and you can reduce drag under sail by painting a mark on the shaft to help in aligning the blades with the deadwood for long passages. Alternatively, fit the boat with a twobladed or three-bladed feathering prop. At the risk of sounding like a broken record, we can only reiterate that nothing will improve the typical sailboat’s handling in reverse more quickly than adding a feathering prop

A 40-gallon aluminum fuel tank is located in the bilge under the main cabin sole. It is completely removable without disassembling joinerwork. Although it’s unlikely you’ll ever have to take it out, this installation is a big plus. You can expect about a 250 mile range under power, which is reasonable for a boat this size. Somewhat greater fuel capacity would be desirable for a serious cruiser, but the boat doesn’t really have the displacement to carry a lot more fuel and water.

The deck is quite well laid out for cruising, but where the heck do you put the dinghy? There’s not quite enough room between the mast and the mainsheet traveler for a decent-sized rigid dinghy.

There are dual anchor rollers at the bow, but they  don’t project far enough forward to get a CQR or Bruce anchor safely away from the topsides. One Crealock 37 we looked at has a custom drop-nose extension on the rollers, an excellent idea that should be incorporated by the builder.

The foredeck is a clear, unobstructed work area. There are four foredeck cleats: two 10″ cleats mounted on the inside of the bulwarks next to the hawseholes, and two 12″ cleats near the centerline for anchor rodes. Thanks, Pacific Seacraft, for an arrangement that acknowledges the reality of anchoring.

A raised fiberglass boss in the deck forward of the anchor cleats will accommodate an optional anchor windlass. Raising the windlass slightly above deck level greatly reduces the amount of water that gets below through the chainpipe. You’ll definitely want a windlass on this boat if you do any serious cruising.

Since the stanchions are bolted to the inside of the bulwarks rather than to the decks, decks are remarkably clear of clutter. Stanchions are 30″ high, a good height for a cruising boat. On the downside, the face of the bulwarks can be deflected by leaning against the stanchions.

Despite the wide cabin trunk, the side decks are plenty wide enough for unobstructed passage, and there are teak grabrails along each side of the cabin trunk.

The cockpit is deep and comfortable, with coamings angled slightly outboard. Cockpit seats are just long enough to lie down on.

There are three cockpit lockers: a deep one on the starboard side that can serve as a sail locker, and two smaller lockers under the helmsman’s seat. A lazarette

on deck aft of the cockpit serves as a propane storage locker. It is properly sealed and scuppered, but it also functions as storage for the stern anchor rode. The lazarette is also big enough that it is tempting to use it for other storage as well.

According to ABYC (American Boat and Yacht Council) standard A-1.11.b(4), lockers used for LPG tank storage “shall not be used for storage of any other equipment.” Even storing the anchor rode in the lazarette would violate that section of the standards.

One excellent feature of Pacific Seacraft boats is the removable cockpit sole, which is bolted down on heavy gaskets. On this boat, the entire sole was originally removable, but with the now-standard steering pedestal in place (the boat was designed for tiller steering) you had to remove the entire steering gear and pedestal before the cockpit sole could be taken out. The deck molding has been retooled so that only the forward half of the sole is removable— a substantially more practical arrangement.

A narrow bridgedeck protects the companionway. The sliding companionway hatch itself is an excellent design, one of the most carefully thoughtout and watertight we have seen.

Surprisingly, there is no molded breakwater for a cockpit dodger. The dodger must be fitted around the mainsheet traveler supports and handrails. This makes it almost impossible to get a watertight seal around the bottom of the dodger—a serious drawback on a cruising boat. In general, however, the deck layout is clean, simple, and functional.

Everyone has a different idea of what the interior of a serious cruising boat should be. The trend today is toward multiple cabins, queen-sized berths, and heads with stall showers. Instead, the Crealock 37 uses a very basic layout devoid of gimmicks and visual tricks, but one that is nearly ideal for a cruising couple.

The Crealock 37 has enough headroom even for tall folks. In the main cabin, there is an honest 6′ 4″ throughout. In the head and forward cabin, headroom is over 6′.

Despite an interior that is heavy on teak, the boat doesn’t look dark inside. The feeling of lightness is helped by multiple ports and hatches, an off-white padded vinyl headliner, and the exposed white fiberglass settee and galley dresser risers that are part of the molded hull liner.

Although an oil finish on the interior teak bulkheads and trim is standard, we highly recommend that you ask the builder not to oil the teak at all. Instead, varnish it. If you really want the interior to look good, use gloss varnish on the teak trim and fiddles, satin varnish on the bulkheads and any other flat areas of teak veneer.

The forward cabin has a nice-sized double berth— 50″ wide and about 7′ long—along the starboard side. The space below it is largely taken up by the forward water tank and the holding tank, although there are several drawers under the head of the berth. A comfortable seat fills what would otherwise be dead space between the berth and the hanging lockers to port. There are cubby lockers above the seat along the port side of the hull.

Using the space under the double berth for tankage is a reasonable solution, but not one free of drawbacks. When the water tank is full, you’re adding about 300 pounds at the forward end of the waterline. If you also carry a lot of chain in the anchor rode locker forward, this is enough weight to noticeably alter the boat’s trim and increase pitching moment, especially since the entry is fairly fine.

Ventilation in the forward cabin is good, with three opening ports and a double-opening Bomar hatch. The cowl vent over the passageway between the forward cabin and main cabin will help ventilation in bad weather.

The head compartment is on the starboard side, immediately aft of the forward cabin. Ventilation is provided by an opening port and a cowl vent.

A slatted teak seat folds down over the toilet if you want to sit down while showering, which is a good idea if you’re doing it while underway. Since the entire lower half of the head compartment is a fiberglass molding, cleanup is quite simple. The shower sump pumps directly overboard with its own pump—a good solution to the problem.

Main cabin seating consists of an L-shaped dinette to starboard, and a straight settee along the port side. A drop-leaf table folds up against the forward face of the galley dresser, and can be folded out in two sections to use for dining. Since you can’t reach the table from the settee, you’re really limited to four for dinner at the table.

We find the folding table a little awkward. It isn’t really sturdy enough to brace against at sea, so you’ll tend to leave it folded up. The halfway open position will be useful in port, although that doesn’t give you a table that two people can sit at comfortably.

A folding table is used for two reasons. First, the cabin sole in front of the dinette is removable so you can get at the fuel tank. Second, someone somewhere along the line decided that with a drop-in insert, the dinette would make a nice big double berth. Unfortunately, there’s no good place to stow the big piece of plywood you need to create that double berth, and you need another double berth on a 37′ cruising boat about like you need a hole in the head.

Using the dinette as a single berth is a little awkward, since the corner of the L is a gradual curve rather than a right angle, limiting foot room.

There is good storage space under both the port settee and the dinette, and there are various lockers and shelves outboard of the settees. Surprisingly, the locker doors do not have positive catches. Instead, they rely on friction latches a mistake on a cruising boat, as you’ll discover the first time the lockers empty onto the cabin sole.

The nav station is aft of the port settee, and it has its own seat rather than using the head of the quarterberth. The chart table itself is a reasonable size, but the piano hinge that joins the opening lid to the fixed portion of the table top is not recessed flush, limiting the space you can actually use for plotting. In addition, the fixed part of the table is flat, making it a good place to put your coffee cup, but the rest of the table is angled. If the whole table were in one plane, it would make for a more usable work surface.

A well-designed electrical panel is mounted on the bulkhead next to the navigator. The forward section of this bulkhead is meant to be used for flushmounting electronics, but the space behind the bulkhead

is really too shallow for a lot of equipment, and the location places the instruments at an awkward angle for the navigator. Pacific Seacraft will build an instrument-mounting rack over the forward end of the chart table, and we recommend it.

Cruising boats really need a big, easy-to-use nav station, with plenty of shelf space for electronic goodies, sextant, and navigation books. A couple of drawers to hold small nav tools would also be useful.

Aft of the nav station is a large quarterberth. Theboat’s accommodation plan shows this as a double, but it’s really too small for that, being 42″ wide at the head, tapering to about 2′ wide at the foot.

Batteries are mounted under the head of the quarterberth, and the second water tank occupies most of the rest of the space below it.

The U-shaped galley is opposite the nav station. With one exception, it is a very workable galley. The exception is that the bottom of the deep double sinks

is right at the load waterline, so water sloshes back through the drains, particularly when the boat is on port tack. Since the galley counter is only 34″ high— 36″ is standard household height—a simple alteration would solve that problem.

The icebox is large and well insulated, with 4″ of pour-in-place foam. The icebox lid, while insulated, needs to be gasketed to reduce heat transfer.

There is reasonable storage throughout the galley for food and utensils, although a cutlery drawer would be helpful. As a $440 option, you can get a good-sized locker suspended over the sinks. We’d go for it on a boat used for extended cruising.

Access to the bilge is somewhat limited, except for the large hatches over the fuel tank. Opening the small hatch over the aft end of the bilge sump requires removing the companionway ladder, a nuisance.

Light and ventilation in the main cabin are excelent, with four large and two small opening ports, plus a second large Bomar deck hatch. We’d add a second pair of Dorade boxes over the main cabin to improve heavy weather ventilation.

The interior of this boat is very livable for longterm offshore cruising. The three berths in the main cabin are all pretty much parallel to the centerline of the boat, an important consideration for sleeping under sail.

Our quibbles with the interior are small, and none of the faults we find is in any way fatal. The molded hull liner makes for an inflexible layout, but the standard one is good enough that this won’t be a problem for most people.

Conclusions

For an off-the-shelf serious cruiser for two people or a small family, you couldn’t do much better than this boat. The hull shape and design are pretty ideal, and the looks are classic without being dated or cute.

The Crealock 37 has held its value extremely well in a time when most boats are depreciating rapidly in a glutted market. This is largely due to the reputation of the boat and the builder, and due to the relatively small number of boats produced by the builder.

Pacific Seacraft’s ads have stressed the ruggedness and seaworthiness of the boat. One ad shows a Crealock 37 lying on her side on a reef, basically undamaged. Another ad promotes the Circumnavigator package, ready to go anywhere and complete down to the steering vane.

It’s pretty clear what the targeted market is: people who want to go places in small boats, who want good boats to carry them there, and have the money to spend. In today’s market, that’s a pretty good type of boat to build.

Raised cabin vs flush deck

Discussion in ' Sailboats ' started by gmat , Nov 16, 2013 .

gmat graham

A lot of monohulls have side decks for accessing the front of the boat, and a raised cabin in the center of the boat giving head room below. If we took the roof of the raised cabin and extended it out to the sides of the boat, making a flush deck, we would get the same head room in the boat, but more actual space inside. Is there any reason other than aesthetics why such flush deck designs are not common? They should have roughly the same windage as the standard raised cabin approach ...  

PAR Yacht Designer/Builder

As with everything, there's good and bad to consider. This is a raised, flush deck: http://www.boatdesign.net/gallery/data/500/medium/RYD-39.jpg as is this: and it is the strongest way to build a deck. Right about where the bottom of the ports are (my drawing), is where the sheer would be, if it was a conventional deck line (on the Cal 20 the sheer is more obvious). Of course, you'd need a "trunk" cabin sticking through the deck to offer the same headroom below. A trunk cabin does limit headroom somewhat, though along the sides of the interior are usually cabinets and seating, so you're not really standing there, but aesthetically, it's a much "bigger" space. If the truck cabin has it's sides pushed out to the rail, you gain this interior volume too, but it also makes it more difficult to climb over it to get to the foredeck. This type of cabin can make a small boat seem much bigger inside, even if the additional volume doesn't really affect the living spaces in a practical manner. This type of cabin (as well as the raised deck) will improve the stability curve a bit too, though there's a weight and a bit of windage penalty you have to pay for this convenience (more material and surface area). Also the trunk cabin pushed out to the deck edge leaves a place for boarding waves to pile up, particularly if you have deep bulwarks. Good scuppers can fix this issue. http://www.boatdesign.net/gallery/data/501/medium/BYYB-223.jpg Ultimately, potential buyers seem to like trunk cabins more than flush decks. I personally don't mind flush decks, often and usually requiring a "broken sheer" line, which most do find less aesthetically desirable. On my flush deck above, I use both the back half of a trunk cabin and the raised, flush deck. The idea being a transition to the flush deck, so you climb up to a conventional height sidedeck, before again climbing up onto the flush deck. So, yes some of the points you raise are reasonable, though there's more than meets the eye. There are a few other ways to skin this fish too.

Well, imagine what the lifelines would look like on a bigger boat with two deck levels. Not pleasing to the eye. Small boats usually dont have stantions and life lines around the boat. Then consider that all the work that needs to be done on a sailboat...its sails ..are in the front of the boat and the best place for the work to take place, the controls , winches, are in the back near the crew and helmsman. It becomes difficult to leed all these lines aft to a level lower than the maindeck. It can be done but its complicated. Far easier to have normal side decks and a cabin house on a bigger sailing boat. Raised deck small sailboats are very nice. The classicis the stonehorse design http:// sube fotos  

I agree that the space is possibly more of a perception than actual useable space. But I have seen the inside of a few flush decks boats and the perception is strong I was wondering why you consider there to be more windage. In the traditional raised cabin the windage is from the side of the boat plus the side of the cabin. In a flush deck the windage is from the extra high deck side, but the extra height is the same height as the cabin side in the traditional design. I take your point about scuppers -- very important. About getting to the back deck I am thinking about a 51-52 foot pilot house design with flush decks, and so trying to work out how to get to the deck in such a configuration. Also you say there is more than one way to skin this fish. I must admit I am at a loss other than flush deck or traditional.  

On some boats it works.. A motorsailor for instance. http:// imagen  

If you look at the evolution of sailboat deck design in the last 40 or 50 years, all sorts of ways have been tried to reduce windage and provide headroom under a deck. The old CCA style of yachts, pretty much all had trunk cabins sticking up through the deck. Some may have had rounded fronts, but they still just pocked through the deck. The side decks were low, crown was increased, bulwarks lowered, extruded toe rails introduced, etc. Blister style of decks appeared in the early 70's with the introduction of the IOR racers, again to reduce windage, yet still keep the sheer low. Progressively, the new hull forms of these yachts, required the sheer to be raised and a lot more deck crown employed, often designed with a thick deck flange (several inches), further raising the sheer line, to provide headroom below a reasonably sized deck house structure. Again, there are issues with both approaches (raised deck/trunk cabin). It's a mater of scale. The Cal 20 is just too small to have a reasonable head room below, yet the Flicka, using huge roof crown and deep belly can pull it off. These are aesthetic considerations for the most part, as expecting standing headroom in a 20' Flicka is just a wish for a canoe belly design. This is the rub, between say 20' to 35' on deck with modern, shallow hull forms. You can build the hull down and increase the draft, wetted surface and hull volume, for sufficient headroom without a Winnebago parked on the deck or use some other sort of visual trick, to fool the eye into thinking is not a Winnebago, but just a minivan sitting up there (like Flicka does). Once you get over the small and smaller medium size yachts, you have more then enough hull volume to contain the headroom. In terms of windage, you want a surfboard with a sail attached, but this doesn't offer much enclosed headroom. Anything bigger does and it's surface area and protrusions that you try to "clean" up. As I mentioned, there's lots of stuff to consider, like stanchion arrangements, which can be ugly on a broken sheer deck line, though they also can be acceptable, if well thought out. Life line arrangements aren't typically given a lot of thought, after they've been sized and spaced appropriately, but the better designers do put some aesthetic consideration into them, some quite clever. There's no doubt from a structural stand point, flush decks are much stronger, compared to a trunk cabin arrangement on the same hull. It also does make an interior feel much larger, even if the hull shape and typical accommodation setups do limit the practical nature of this increased volume. In the end, the choice can be a practical one, particularly on a small boat or maybe an blue water vessel, looking for every strength advantage it can get. I have a 50' design with a pilothouse and flush deck. I use the pilothouse as the transition from the standard deck height to the raised portion. It helps mitigate the break in the sheer, with the bulk of the pilothouse obscuring the sheer break. On a 50' - 52' yacht, especially if not performance oriented (the pilothouse suggests it's not), it pretty easy to make a pleasing profile. Trying the same thing on a 35'er will be quite tough, but you can still pull it off, though you'll have to make more design concessions in other areas.  

Thanks for all the comments -- very interesting. The boat I am thinking of isn't supposed to be a speed machine (although I don't want a slug either ). It's a blue-water design for living on, and for traveling anywhere. I started with the Sponberg 45 design ( http://www.sponbergyachtdesign.com/Globetrotter45.htm ), and have been messing with different ideas, in particular making it a flush deck design.  

You should stay with Mr Sponbergs design and not change it. The boat looks very well thought out. Other concepts would be the Freedom 40 type . Flush decks at sea are very intimidating for crew with no handholds, no toe grips and a long fall to the leeward side Flush deck never provide spray shelter for deck ventilation hatchs, hence they must be permanently dogged down  

I disagree, in that flush decks are intimating at sea. Foot holds are usually installed, and if doubt, going forward without a safety lanyard will just show you how foolish you are. A wave or splash tall enough to climb over a raised deck bow, will also climb over a traditional sheered bow and it's trunk cabin, entering it's trunk mounted hatch. In fact the higher freeboard will cause less water to come aboard. Still it's a thing most sailors will have issue with, mostly because it's different than what they're familiar with. When GPS came in, many clung to their Loran units, hoping it was just a fad, but eventually adapted and this is the case with every different or new innovation in yachting. Old dodgers like me and Michael are hard to train for new tricks. Maybe with a shock collar, we can get Michael on board a flush decker.  

I agree that the Sponberg 45 is a very nicely thought out boat. And I am not trying to change it necessarily, but to learn from it. For example I learned about free standing rigs from it. The rig is so different, so I wondered what else could be different (but useful, different to be different is pointless and possibly dangerous).

Flush deck or trunk cabin is almost always decided based n personal taste with only a little bit of practicality thrown in. I happen to like flush deck designs in both large and small boats but the advantages of the extra volume is most appreciated in the smaller ones. That extra volume is not just aesthetics. It provides a lot of righting moment in a big seaway or knockdown and, in many cases, makes it possible to sit on the sleeping berths and lean back comfortably, which may not be possible at all on their trunk cabin cousins where your head will bang the side deck. When there is no other suitable upright seating available on the interior, that is no small thing. There is extra windage in a flush deck in spite of an apparently equal height in profile, since negative windage is most apparent when the boat is heeled going to weather. There are many very handsome boats in either flush deck or trunk cabin and some that are really in between with only a small bubble of a trunk poking through the broad deck.

Daysailer Designs

I love small boats!  I always have, ever since I was a kid.  If you gave me a mega-rock star’s money I would not buy a bigger boat, although I might buy some nice waterfront real estate to sail from.  But even if you love the small boat you have, you might like the looks of some of the others and be curious about them.  (There’s a reason they call boats “she.”)  The following are my notes from a life of noticing and sailing small boats.  I am arbitrarily not considering anything longer than twenty feet or weighing over one ton, or sailboats used only for class racing. 

“Daysailer” can mean any sailboat that’s not in a race or on an overnight cruise.  It also means a specific 16’ 9” sloop designed by Uffa Fox which was mass-produced in fiberglass by the O’Day company in Fall River, Massachusetts and is still made today by Cape Cod Shipbuilding.  I own one of these, built in 1963.  So from now on DaySailer will mean the boat designed by Uffa Fox and “daysailer” will mean a boat you sail for a few hours at a time.  A pocket cruiser has a small cabin with berths for sleeping, which mine (kind of) does.

A major division in these boats is between those with centerboards and those with keels.  You lose versatility when you put a fixed ballasted keel on a sailboat.  Keel boats are heavier, slower and more expensive than centerboard boats.  You can’t run up on a beach and step out onto the sand, which for me is part of the fun of sailing.  You avoid shallow water.  You need to tie up to a dock, or use a tender to get to and from the shore.  They may fit on a trailer, but because of their draft and weight it’s a chore to trailer-sail them.  However, they are safer in strong wind because they won’t capsize.  They have more room, and a steady motion.  Once a sailboat gets over 20’ long, rail meat isn’t enough to keep the boat upright.

Don’t buy a new boat unless you have to.  New boats are expensive compared to used ones, which sell for 10% – 50% of the price of new.  Any fiberglass boat can be restored to a “practically new” condition with a few weeks of work.  All fiberglass boats end up in landfills eventually, so by purchasing a used one you reduce waste as well as save money.  And the production boats designed years ago are at least as beautiful and functional as those being designed today.  Some of the most popular small sailboats ever were designed fifty or sixty years ago and have been made continuously for decades by more than one builder; the hull mold and production rights passing to a new company whenever the old company folds.

The Alcort Sunfish and other popular “wet” boats:  The Sunfish and the Laser have a lot in common.  They are identical in length (13’ 9”) and nearly identical in beam, draft, weight, sail area, price, and popularity.  Today they’re even made by the same company, LaserPerformance , but that wasn’t always true.  The Sunfish was designed by Alcort, Inc. and produced by Alcort for decades.  With its colorful striped lateen sail, tiny footwell of a cockpit, and flat fish-shaped hull it didn’t look anything like any other boat.  The designers had previously build iceboats, then experimented with paddle boards.  The Sunfish has won many design awards.  It is the most-produced fiberglass sailboat ever.  The Laser is more of a performance boat.  Even though it is wider than the Sunfish, its round-bottomed hull and tall rig make it faster and tippier.  Both boats have been produced by the hundreds of thousands.  On both boats, you are just inches off the water with little protection from getting splashed.  They aren’t for winter sailing.  A third boat in the “wet and popular” category is the Hobie 16 catamaran.  There’s no cockpit; you sit on a fabric trampoline.  Multihulls are inherently fast but their width makes them awkward to handle at the dock or on a trailer. 

The DaySailer was marketed as the “boat that launched 10,000 weekends.”  I have not sailed mine that many times yet, but I’m closing in on 100.  For me, it’s a right-sized boat: small enough to single-hand, big enough to take a few guests comfortably, fast enough not to be boring, with good-looking curves.  The cuddy cabin deflects spray and provides a place for tired children to rest.  I sleep overnight sometimes, head-forward under the cuddy on some camping foam pads with my feet sticking out into the cockpit.  She draws only a few inches with the board raised so you can sail up onto a sandy beach.  When the tide falls while you are on shore, the boat is light enough to push back into the water.  The DaySailer’s 145 ft 2 of sail area are really too much for my northern California climate, where winds in the double digits are the norm.  When I sail alone or on windy days I reef the main before I go out and use a smaller-than-standard jib taken from a 14-foot O’Day Javelin.  Then when the wind gets really hairy I slacken the main sheet, leave the tiller, go up on the foredeck and drop the jib and secure it.  The boat naturally heaves to in this situation and is quite stable.  Jib secured, I go back to the tiller and sail under reefed main alone.  She’s fast and well balanced under all these sail configurations. 

One other caveat – I keep my boat on the shore with the mast stepped all the time.  I don’t trailer-sail it and if I did that 25’ keel-stepped aluminum mast would be a problem because I cannot raise and step it by myself.  Even with two people it’s tricky.  If I was going to trailer-sail I would get a boat with a shorter, lighter mast. 

The DaySailer was the model that made the O’Day Corporation prosper but they built smaller and larger boats too, up to 40 feet long.  The O’Day Javelin is the DaySailer’s 14-foot little sister; it looks different because it has no cuddy cabin but sails similarly.  Even smaller than that is the 12-foot O’Day Widgeon .  The DaySailer’s twin big sisters are the Rhodes 19 and the Mariner .  The Rhodes 19 looks a like a larger, two-and-a-half-foot-longer DaySailer with a cuddy cabin.  The Mariner has the same hull as the Rhodes 19 but it has a real cabin for overnight cruising with a bulkhead separating the cabin from the cockpit and a big V-berth below with storage space, room for a small camp stove, etc.  The Mariner and the Rhodes 19 are both available with either a centerboard or a fixed ballasted keel. 

There have been over ten thousand DaySailers built, and several thousand each of the Widgeon, Javelin, Rhodes 19 and Mariner models as well, so you see these boats everywhere.  A rarer cousin of these is the 15’ 8” O’Day Ospray (yes, that’s Ospray with an “a” not “Osprey”.)  This boat is only a foot shorter than a DaySailer and looks just like one except that the mast is stepped forward of the raised domed cuddy cabin instead of through it.  The cuddy cabin is smaller.  I don’t know why O’Day bothered to build a boat so similar to its best-seller and they only did it for a few years.  I have only ever seen one of these.  The Widgeon, Javelin and Ospray are no longer built but Cape Cod Shipbuilding still builds DaySailers and Stuart Marine in Maine builds new Mariners and Rhodes 19’s.

West Wight Potter P-15 :  I had one of these boats when my kids were small.  It looked like a bathtub toy, but in a good way.  There are famous stories of people making long ocean passages in them, but really if you want to make a long ocean passage a 15-foot centerboard dingy is not the best way to do it.  A boat with a ballasted keel is.  If you absolutely have to go on a blue-water voyage in a dingy this is probably the one to use.  Most P-15 owners trailer-sail them on lakes and bays and they are very good for that because they don’t weigh much and the mast is stepped on deck and is only 15’ 6” tall and is thin also so it’s easy to put the mast up.  The mast is so short because the “simulated gaff”-rigged mainsail is compact and wide for its height.  The mainsail is in the shape of a gaff sail plus a gaff topsail, with a sturdy batten taking the place of the gaff boom.  Plus, the boat is under-canvased (main + working jib = 98 ft 2 ) compared to other boats of similar size and weight.  This was rarely a problem for me, sailing in windy northern California.  On the occasions when it was a problem I just put on a big genoa jib.  The reason the boat is under-canvassed is that it was originally designed to sail in the waters around the Isle of Wight, in English Channel, where it’s blowing a gale most of the time.  Strong winds and choppy conditions are built into this boat’s DNA, which is funny because today they are produced by International Marine in southern California where the wind is much lighter.

I miss sailing dry (the Potter deflects spray efficiently) and I sure do miss those two big 6 ½ foot-long berths down below.  The Potter is faster than she looks like she would be; I had no complaints about her speed.  I did find the cockpit uncomfortable.  The P-15 has a lot of big boat features and one of these is a self-bailing cockpit.  This means the floor of the cockpit is above the waterline, which makes the cockpit quite shallow.  I don’t have very long legs but I wished for more legroom.  It was like sitting in a bathtub.  And the cockpit coaming didn’t make it easy to sit on the rail.  As my kids grew there wasn’t room in the bathtub for four people anymore.  So I traded up to my O’Day DaySailer.  Then my kids lost interest in sailing.  Oh well, the DaySailer is a great boat too.  Some other “big boat” features I could have done without are the bow pulpit (what’s it for?) and the bulkhead between the cabin and the cockpit.  I like a more open arrangement.  But if I were a trailer-sailer I would go back to the Potter in a heartbeat because it’s so easy to wrangle on and off the trailer. 

The same company also builds the P-19 which is more than twice the boat even though it is only four feet longer.  One difference between them, besides size, is that while the P-15 has a typical centerboard that pivots backwards and up, the P-19 has a 300-lb. metal daggerboard that goes straight up and down.  So even though this boat only draws 6” with the board up, you can’t just sail towards the beach until the board bumps.  You have to slowly raise it using a winch.

West Wight Potters, especially the P-15’s, hold their resale value much better than most boats.  I sold mine for more than I paid for it.  Many owners keep them in their garages and polish them obsessively, so used Potters are often in Bristol condition. 

Some pocket cruisers similar to the Potters (but with deeper drafts) are the Montgomery 15 , the Montgomery 17 , the Com-Pac 16 and the Sage 17 . In the 1960s and 1970s the MacGregor Yacht Corporation produced thousands of Venture-21’s,and their little sisters the Venture-17’s .  These were inexpensively made trailer-sailers with ballasted swing keels, big cockpits, low headroom in the cabin, and very few frills.  They are not pretty by anyone’s standard (they look like skinny Clorox bottles with sails), but if your budget is tight they can be had for next to nothing. 

The Herreshoff 12½ and its relatives: (12 ½ refers to the waterline length; the boat is almost 16’ long overall.)  Nathaniel Herreshoff, its designer, was a member of a prominent family of naval architects and yacht builders in Bristol, Rhode Island.  He designed many of the America’s Cup defenders of the Gilded Age and the early 20 th century.  Those elegant yachts were his inspiration for this charming little gaff-rigged sloop.  It was conceived as a safe and stable boat for beginners and children.  It has been in continuous production since 1914.  Today you can buy one from Cape Cod Shipbuilding or from Ballentine’s Boat Shop , also on Cape Cod (where they call it the Doughdish) but there are used ones, in wood or fiberglass, all over New England.  Warning: these boats aren’t cheap.  Expect to pay what you would for a car.  The Herreshoff 12½ has a fixed ballasted keel with 735 lbs. of lead in it that draws 2’ 6”.  It must be the smallest keel sailboat in common use.  There is no cabin, but some people have used it for overnight cruising by rigging a boom tent and making a bed on the cockpit sole, which of course has no centerboard trunk to divide it in half.  Of all of the boats I’ve never had or sailed, this is the one that most calls to me.

Two and a half feet of draft is too deep to land on beaches, so designer Joel White modified the design to make the Haven 12½ which is almost identical to the Herreshoff 12½ from the waterline up.  Down below it has a centerboard, but also a shallow keel.  The Haven 12 ½ draws a foot less than the Herreshoff 12 ½ but weighs about the same.  So it still draws 1’ 6” with the board up and weighs well over half a ton.  It’s not obvious that this is enough of an improvement to make it truly beachable.  The Bullseye has the same hull as the Herreshoff 12½ but has a more modern Marconi sloop rig and a cuddy cabin.  Cape Cod Shipbuilding produces the Bullseye.  The Paine 14 is a scaled-down version of the Herreshoff 12½ that looks similar above the waterline but has a carbon fiber mast and a modern fin keel and less wetted surface area, so it performs with more zip. 

The Cape Dory Typhoon has been called “America’s Littlest Yacht” although maybe the Herreshoff 12 ½ deserves the title more, being even littler and being designed by a famous yachtsman.  But the Typhoon has a proper cabin complete with a bulkhead that separates it from the cockpit and a sliding hatch, sleeping berths below, round portholes in the cabin trunk, teak cockpit coamings, winches for the jib sheets, and all the other details of a much larger keel boat.  Plus, Carl Alberg designed it with elegant, understated lines.  Several thousand of these were made, a few as daysailers without the cabin, but Cape Dory no longer exists as a company.  My uncle Eddie had one of these on Lake Michigan. 

As long as we’re on the subject of keel boats, the Cal 20 is ubiquitous where I live on the west coast.  I learned to sail on a Cal 20 when I was seven years old, in San Diego Harbor, steering a course between the aircraft carriers and the Hobie cats.  The Cal 20 is a stocky little boat with a 7’ beam.  My father always said it developed a “vicious weather helm” when the wind got too strong but I’ll bet this problem can be solved by reefing the main – I don’t remember if he ever did that.  Used Cal 20s are easy to find and the seller is usually motivated to sell because the slip fees at a marina in the San Francisco Bay Area or Los Angeles are often more than the boat itself is worth.  You have to keep it at a marina; it’s no trailer-sailer. 

Traditional Catboats : These are heavy, wide, and slow with deep round cockpits, oval portholes on the cabin trunk and one huge gaff mainsail on an unstayed mast that’s right up at the bow.   They have their origins as utility boats for clamming and fishing on Cape Cod.  They look salty at the mooring but they are not as exciting to sail as more slender sloops.  They have a lot of room for their length, though.  No one model or manufacturer dominates this category.  The Marshall Marine Corporation on Cape Cod makes the 15-foot Sandpiper, the 18-foot Sanderling and the Marshall 22.  Arey’s Pond Boat Yard (also on Cape Cod) makes traditional catboats 12’ and up, with their 14-footer being the best-selling model.  Florida-based Com-Pac Yachts produces a line of trailerable gaff-rigged catboats 14-20’ with less wood trim that are more affordable then the high-end boats that Marshall and Arey’s Pond makes.

Beetle Cats , however, are catboats that are nimble sailers.  The design of this lightweight (for a catboat) 12-footer goes back to 1921 and four thousand of them have been built.  There are plenty of used ones available but you can buy new ones in wood from Beetle, Inc. on Cape Cod and in fiberglass from Howard Boats , also on Cape Cod. 

The Drascombe Lugger and its many relatives are triple-propulsion boats: they can be rowed, sailed or powered by an outboard motor in a built-in motor well.  It should go without saying that design compromises mean that they are not high-performance sailboats, rowboats or motorboats.   They are traditional looking open boats with a Gunter rigged mainsail and a small mizzen.  They are made in the United Kingdom so even though more than 2000 have been produced there are not a lot of used ones available in North America.  Expect to pay top dollar or even to have to buy a new one, unless you live in the UK.  There is no cabin on the Lugger but people use them for beach camping on extended cruises because they have plenty of storage space and shallow draft.  Their design is based on traditional English fishing boats that had to be beachable.  The Lugger is 18’ 9” but Drascombe makes many other models including the 15 ½ – foot Dabber and the 21’ 9” Longboat, all essentially the same except for the size.  The Norseboat 17.5 , “the Swiss Army Knife of boats”, made in Canada, is a modern alternative.  It is advertised as a sailing/rowing boat but with a beam of just 5’ 2”, round bilges and low freeboard it looks tender.  I would sail it in light air; I’m not sure how it would do in a gale. 

Cornish Crabbers and Shrimpers are also based on traditional fishing boats, and are also made in England.   However, most of these are heavy keelboats that violate my “not more than twenty feet and not over one ton” rule.  Even the popular 19’ Shrimper is really over 22’ with the bowsprit and weighs over a ton.  Also, since they are made in England there are not that many of them available in North America, unless you want to pay for a new one. 

Flying Scot: I used to sail one of these.  I single-handed it and found that this boat is really too big and powerful to single-hand very well.  The mainsail was bigger than a barn door.  Mine had no reef points.  I would come screaming back to the dock at the end of the sail thinking “geez, I sure hope I can stop this beast…” It’s not tippy, just has a lot of power.  You could water ski from one.  The company that makes them, Flying Scot, Inc . is located on a small lake in western Maryland; maybe it’s not very windy there.  Also, there is no place in the cockpit or forepeak or even on deck to lay out a sleeping bag for an overnight; it’s strictly a daysailer and racer.  That’s unusual for a boat that is 19’ long and almost seven feet wide. 

Cape Cod Mercury Sloop: Don’t confuse this with the 18’ “Mercury Class” boats; this boat is 15’ long.  It is a favorite with camps, sailing schools and community boating programs but it looks kinda generic and institutional – I don’t think that many people buy these for their own personal use.  At least all the ones I’ve ever seen have been in institutional fleets.  Come to think of it, there are other sailboats like that, the Flying Junior for instance.  Cape Cod Shipbuilding makes Mercury Sloops. 

Whitehalls are rowing boats.   They were originally water taxis in New York City.  So they are light in weight, and have narrow beams and low freeboard.  Today you can get Whitehalls with sail rigs but these light, narrow, low hulls aren’t ideal for sailing.  I would only sail one in gentle conditions, and gentle conditions are uncommon where I live.  Whitehall Rowing & Sail and Gig Harbor Boat Works (both in the Pacific Northwest) are two companies that produce them with sail rigs. 

So there you have it – every boat has a story that explains why it looks the way it does.  Many of the stories have happened on or near Cape Cod.  If you live there, you are lucky to be surrounded by all these pretty boats.

Dark Harbor 17 by BB Crowninshield

Like her smaller sister, a “Seventeen” is a pure sailing machine of great beauty, but she is enough larger to offer considerably more comfort through a larger cockpit well and a small cuddy cabin.  Low freeboard combined with a wide, self-bailing cockpit well that seats you “down in” the boat, put you very close to the water.  The lovely, slender hull lines, long ends, deep draft and large rig provide wonderfully sweet “feel” in this powerful, fast, wet, responsive and handy boat.

The beautiful round-front cabin trunk charmingly evokes the possibility of sleeping aboard, and indeed, some hardy souls have done extensive cruising in Seventeen’s. The cuddy is just big enough for two narrow berths, and has minimal headroom, but the cockpit well will sleep two people in fair comfort under a boom tent, if desired. Mostly the cuddy serves as storage space, shelter in a rain squall, and a bit of privacy when desired.

There are larger boats of similar character described elsewhere on our website, but a Seventeen is probably the smallest design that offers such a fine and elegant sailing experience. Seventeen’s are still raced in our area, and a test sail can usually be arranged during the season.

With their new 88  footer from the Double Deck range, Sunreef are unveiling an ultra-comfortable cruising catamaran built for an experienced boating family, and are confirming their ability to complete fully customized projects on the same timescale as production boats.

It took no more than 9 months for the Sunreef 88 DD, first announced at the 2016 Cannes boat show, to see its hulls hit the water in Gdansk, Poland.  Yet this is not just a well-honed semi-custom boat, but a brand new model in the range which is already known to connoisseurs and necessarily demanding owners. Having owned many of the best in English and Italian motor yachts, this family got into sailing with a beautiful 25 meter ketch.  The natural instability of a heeling monohull prompted them to ask Ian Sellers, their skipper, to think of another solution.  The choice of a sailing catamaran was a logical one: the space, stability, low draft, panoramic view and the economical running are irrefutable arguments for those who want XXL-sized comfort.  

A good average speed to cross the Atlantic or to reach new anchorages in the Caribbean islands after a beautiful summer season in the Mediterranean also guided their choice.  It simply remained to find a shipyard capable of satisfying the wishes of the owner.  With a budget of more than 4 million euros, this owner was looking for a boat that was not just ultra-equipped and of the highest quality, but a unit that was entirely made ...

DISCOVER THE MODEL

Description.

The start of the ambitious Sunreef 88 Double Deck project was officially communicated during Sunreef Yachts’ press conference at the Cannes Yachting Festival 2016. After eight months of intensive work, the shipyard proudly announced the launch of this catamaran with a zealous, sporty look.

An experienced yachtsman switching from a massive motor yacht , the owner decided to commission the Sunreef 88 Double Deck to pursue a more stable navigation style with greater living space. Indeed, a challenging project for the shipyard’s engineering and design teams.

Nonetheless, this journey was destined to keep the promise of delivering a state-of-the art fully customized sailing catamaran from the start. To achieve the goal of building a seaworthy and dynamic catamaran, Sunreef Yachts’ team of naval architects conceived a completely new yacht design which seemed far sportier than the rest.

Same as all yachts within her range, the Sunreef 88 Double Deck too features a mezzanine level inside the saloon and a spacious master stateroom with a panoramic view in the bow part of the main deck. However, her superstructure was granted a more aerodynamic aspect. As a result, the 88-footer emphasis equally on both performance and luxury, offering over 300m² of living space and an outstanding sailing experience.

Despite this, the Sunreef 88 Double Deck remains a family-friendly yacht offering the best of comfort and safety. The innovative composite superstructure of the sailing yacht conceals a smart and functional layout with luxurious accommodations for eight guests and up to five crew members.

Upon the owners’ request, the interior decor of the Sunreef 88 Double Deck features exclusive natural materials: Chambord oak, linen, leather, natural stone, and quartz tiles – all contribute to the warm and welcoming atmosphere of the sailing yacht . The feeling of warmth was also achieved through applying numerous orange accents to the interiors – an important color for the owner’s family who consider it to be a symbol of energy.

New Sunreef 92 Double Deck Sailing Catamaran

From the same people who brought you the original Sunreef Yacht, comes the new Sunreef 92 Double Deck , with a new design which not only streamlines the deck house, but tops it with a giant 40 m 2 fly bridge.

This was inspired by similar designs found on other super yacht designs. In collaboration with K-Epsilon and Rivoyre Ingenierie , The Sunreef Naval Architecture Bureau has intensely studied performance and sea capabilities using state of the art CFD, computational flow dynamics to create the ultimate in catamaran luxury.

Using integrated stepped hull chins, the Sunreef 92 Double Deck catamaran increases interior space, without compromising performance. Now this yacht can accommodate up to 10 guests, in up to 5 double luxury suites, as well as a crew of four.

Sunreef’s 92 Double Deck also features a canoe style boom and carbon mast, one of this manufacturer’s specialties. How are they able to accomplish such feats? They added a new mezzanine floor, which includes a coffee table and lounge, located on the port side of the main deck dining area, freeing up more space below for larger cabins and storage space, or even more suites if you prefer.

Because of this innovative design modification, now the owner’s suite occupies two floors of the entire front area of this yacht, with a private luxury office, gym and leisure area on the upper level, with the bathroom, wardrobe and storage area below deck. Each cabin has an extended size, three way access to their King sized beds, with spectacular panoramic sea views. Not only this, but each luxury suite comes with its own separate bath and shower area, large closets, storage lockers, as well as their own air conditioning and a comprehensive entertainment system.

With a LOA of 27 meters, an 11.2m beam, and a 1.6m draft, this super yacht has a 80 ton displacement. It will also be powered by two 405HP 1200 L/3170 Gal engines, and will be able to cruise at speeds up to 15 knots. The 70m 2 cockpit will also include a large dining area, sunbathing mattresses, and diving equipment. Its spacious fly bridge is fitted with a jacuzzi, two wet bars, barbecue, ice makers and even a pair of jet skis. It will also include a tender, hidden in a specially built locker under the main sun pad of the cockpit.

Even though this is only the second of such models, it isn’t hard to see why the Sunreef 92 Double Deck sailing catamaran is on it’s way to be one of the most sought after luxury yachts. With it’s innovative design, state of the art electronics, and focus on luxury, the Sunreef 92 Double Deck is top of the line, and a must for people who may still think they have it all. Don’t miss out on your own little piece of paradise.

Jamaica Diaspora

A seafaring adventure on island routes double-decker catamaran cruise.

Embark on a luxury catamaran cruise adventure out of Ocho Rios, Jamaica that takes adventure to new heights.

Standing on the dock, I pause a moment to let my gaze travel slowly upwards at the gleaming catamaran floating before me. Rocking gently in the calm Caribbean Sea, the beautiful double-decker  Calipsoul  seems familiar yet exciting and new to me all at the same time. I had chosen Island Routes Catamaran Dunn’s River Cruise the last time I was in Ocho Rios, Jamaica. It had been the perfect combination of relaxation and excitement that I had been looking for. We had also done the romantic Lovers Rock evening cruise, literally sailing into the sunset together. Making the cruise reservation Both times it had turned out exactly as promised and this time around when I knew I was heading back to Jamaica, I reached out to the wonderfully helpful Island Routes team yet again. I spoke with them about how much I had enjoyed the last catamaran excursion I did with them and shared that this time I would be coming with a group of friends and family of all ages. I had enjoyed the snorkeling aspect of the Dunn’s River cruise so much but it had been fairly short and some of my group said they really wanted to let loose and relax.

Island Routes Reggae Family catamaran cruise They suggested the Island Routes Reggae Family catamaran cruise. They explained that it was like The Dunn’s River cruise minus the climbing, which my mom was happy to hear about, and a lot of time spent exploring the underwater world. Then they told me how great my timing was as they now have a brand new double-decker catamaran! To be honest, I couldn’t quite picture it so I didn’t know what to expect. Standing here, about to step onto the Calipsoul , I am filled with delight as the kids all leap aboard. We aren’t the only family on board that day and as my group is fairly large, coming over on the shuttle service from the Beaches all-inclusive family resort, I had been worried about feeling crowded. Yet, what we discover is the perfect blend of being able to find ample areas for ourselves while also having the opportunity to meet other people as equally excited as we are.

Snorkeling lesson Once in the water, we are directed by the crew, who have joined us, where to swim and, along the way, they make sure to point out coral formations and beautiful fish ensuring we have an amazingly immersive experience (pun intended). I explore for ages and I am very excited as I brought my waterproof camera with me this time and aim to meet my self-imposed challenge of taking an underwater selfie with tropical fish. Although unsuccessful because they move pretty quickly, I still have a blast. Suddenly, someone is tapping me on my shoulder and I pop my head up to see one of the crew members guiding me back to the boat. Making my way back I realize that, as strong a swimmer as I am, I’m pretty happy to have the life vest on as it allows me to keep looking underwater while I make my way back without having to put in too much effort in keeping myself headed in the right direction so all my focus is on the magical world below me. Trampoline for the kids, hammocks for the adults We climb aboard and the teenagers head to the trampoline area (I was told that’s what it’s called). For people who may not normally hang out on a boat, this area serves an engineering purpose but is also a pretty cool place to just hang out on as it’s like a flat stretched-out hammock where you can just lay out and chill. I divest myself of the fins, mask, and vest and realize I’m pretty hungry! Lunch on the ocean Luckily, the food comes out and everyone piles up their plates with tropical fruit, delicious wraps and chips, and salsa, and we head for a sunny spot on the upper deck of the catamaran. We start chatting with other people and decide it’s just about the right time for the rum version of that delicious fruit punch (after all we’re in Jamaica, how can we pass up the delicious rum when no one is driving or diving). My husband opts for a cold Red Stripe instead and leans back to work on his tan. Learning Jamaican dance moves We hear music and a lot of laughter below and realize the trampoline is empty. I decide to leave my husband happily tanning and I follow the music only to discover a full-blown dance class, as the crew is teaching everyone the latest Jamaican dancehall dance moves. Although I feel a little self-conscious when I join in, that quickly fades away as everyone tries their best to match the expertise of the crew. Over on the right, two little girls have their own crew member showing them what to do and they catch on quickly, delighted grins lighting up their faces. I manage to muddle through and I’m pretty sure my sister is going to show these videos to everyone once we get back home for an evening full of a similar level of laughter at my expense. In that moment though, I don’t care. I feel the salt from the sea drying on my skin, my hair is a tousled mess and I’m dancing with my children in the middle of the Caribbean Sea. This, I think, is what happiness is.

First Sunreef 88 double deck catamaran launched

The first hull in the Sunreef 88 range of double deck sailing catamarans has been launched in Gdansk for a European owner, the Polish yard has announced.

This fully personalised multihull superyacht measures 26.82 metres LOA and was styled inside and out by the in-house team at  Sunreef Yachts .

In a statement, the Polish yard added that the design of the Sunreef 88 is “a great display of the shipyard’s non-conformist attitude and a genuine example of an avant-garde sailing catamaran concept”.

Captain Ian Sellers added: "She is a beautifully crafted, fully customised transoceanic catamaran, with superb quality and finish."

The design brief was focussed on three key themes: luxury, performance and privacy. To this end, the Sunreef 88 features more than 300 square metres of living space — an impressive figure for a yacht of this size, proving that bigger isn't always better .

This two-deck sailing yacht will feature an extensive flybridge with a central helm station and plenty of al fresco dining and relaxation spaces. Back aft, the cockpit features a central dining table with seating space for ten guests as well as a second sunbed, making good use of the Sunreef 88's 11.2 metre beam.

The in-house design includes sporty and dynamic exterior lines, as well as a fully customised interior layout. Key features include a mezzanine level in the saloon and a main-deck owner's cabin , which boasts superb views out to sea through panoramic windows.

Auxiliary power comes from a pair of 425hp engines drawing on a total fuel capacity of 8,000 litres, while her total sailplan is in excess of 345 square metres.

Sunreef added that the designers drew inspiration for this single-masted sailing yacht from the 35 metre flagship yacht Che , which was launched in 2010. The Sunreef 88 is the sixth superyacht from the Polish yard, which has also created the Sunreef 102 yacht Ipharra .

Savor Bonaire's breathtaking seascapes from the Sea Breeze double-decker power catamaran .

You'll stop at the famous pink salt flats and white mountains of salt. Your guide will explain the salt production process.

Offshore from the historical white slave huts, learn some Caribbean facts and discover why these centuries-old huts are built next to the sea.

The catamaran approaches the uninhabited island of Klein Bonaire by way of the famous Bonaire Marine Park . Its protected reef makes it a divers' paradise. From up close, you will see Bonaire's most attractive white-sand beach. Its name, of course, is No-Name Beach.

Follow the coastline for exceptional panoramic views, and don't forget to look down into the crystal-clear turquoise water. Oceanfront hotels and restaurants and beautiful Dutch Caribbean mansions line the way back to the port.

Some of the best decking materials include:

• Wood: Cedar, redwood, and tropical hardwoods offer a classic look but require regular maintenance.
• Pressure-Treated Lumber: Affordable pine that resists rot and insects but may need staining.
• Composite Decking: Low-maintenance blend of wood fibers and recycled plastic, available in various colors.
• PVC Decking: Synthetic option resistant to stains, scratches, and fading, but can be pricey.
• Aluminum Decking: Lightweight, durable, rust-resistant, suitable for water areas, but more expensive.
• Vinyl Decking: Low-maintenance, moisture, and rot-resistant, but quality varies.

It’s better to build a patio when:

• Privacy is a priority: Patio provides a sense of privacy, especially when enclosed.
• Budget and low maintenance are the priority: Patios are generally more cost-effective to build and require less maintenance.
• The ground is flat: For even ground, constructing a patio is easier and more straightforward.

It’s better to build a deck when:

• Scenic views are desired: Decks offer better views.
• You are fine with obtaining building permits and inspections: Decks typically require permits and inspections due to their structural impact on the home.
• The ground is uneven: If your backyard has slopes or uneven terrain, a deck can provide a stable and level outdoor space.

Amadeus Description

Built by the famous Dynamique Yachts shipyard, and having undergone a total refit in 2018, S/Y Amadeus was designed to please the most demanding of yachtsmen. Built for smooth sailing, this elegant cutter rigged sloop has a sleek hull design, comfortably reaching top speeds of 12 knots and ensuring excellent sailing performance. S/Y Amadeus has just undergone this past winter (2018) a major refit such as total repaint top to bottom, new rigging (BSI Denmark), Novourania with new Evinrude 75hp outboard, Splash pool, new Bimini/Sprayhood/Awnings, new exterior fabrics and many other enhancements. In 2016 new “North Sails” were placed onboard. The yacht is maintained in excellent condition with a five-star crew year round. Her generous uncluttered teak deck offers plenty of space for sunbathing. The spacious and unique outdoor saloon has two tables seating upto 12 guests and is a perfect setting for outdoor dining and entertainment. Thanks to a special canopy and roll-up windows, the deck saloon has the added attraction that it can be fully enclosed, making it ideal for all weather conditions. Her forward area includes a splash pool and sun bathing area which can also be shaded with a removable awning. From the cockpit, a stairway leads to the light-filled spacious saloon offering ample seating, ideal for relaxing or enjoying a drink from the bar, and offers a formal dining area. This area also includes a LCD TV, entertainment center, ipod dock station, playstation, and is ideal for indoor activities. She can accommodate 10-12 guests in one full width master stateroom, two double bedded cabins each having one extra single bed and two twin bedded cabins which can be easily converted to double beds (upon request), thus, making her the only 5 double bedded sailboat in the Greek market. She also has a nice selection of toys which include water ski (adult and children), tubes, inflatable canoes, wakeboard, fishing rod and snorkeling gear.
