Typically quite a good cruising boat with a reasonable cruising speed. Better than a Lagoon. FYI I do own and Orana. Cheers

Hello Hans-Jorg! So glad you enjoyed the video. Thanks for your comments. We had a good laugh with the voice over too. If you have any catamaran questions let us know.

The fake voice over at the end was hilarious.

Wow this was super informative! I really appreciate the comparisons and learning about mast size, boom heights and placements, amount of sail, windability, hull lengths, etc! Of all the sailing channels I follow, I’ve never heard of anyone painting their chain or anchor! I think that’s so cool and a great idea and I wonder how long it will last? I would think the windless and the salt water would just remove that paint and no time…? Is that red white and blue for the US flag, or blue white and red for France? 😂. I can’t tell you how many times while watching this, I said to myself ‘that’s what she said’ I know you both would get a good laugh! Really great video and so heartwarming to see you taking care of the beaches! 💕. Final thought: would Ada’s bum fit through the escape hatch? 😜🤦‍♀️

Haha! Thanks for the comments!! Very funny, yes, that's what they said. I'm super glad you found the video interesting and informative too. The paint is enamel paint so it should stay on pretty well, especially inside the links even if the outside gets worn off. We had these little colored rubber inserts between the links but they keep falling out. Red, white and blue for our US-flagged boat. Thanks again!
