Hi guys, thanks for watching... it seems my opinions have raised a few questions, such as.... 1. Why is speed so important for a cruising sailboat? 2. Do you really need a larger cat to go fast? 3. and the ol' "Which is better for bluewater cruising, Cat or Mono?" Would love to hear your opinions!
@steveturansky90313 жыл бұрын
1) Speed is fun and can provide safety if not overdone. It's so much more fun to sail reasonably fast and throttle back (reef) when the conditions dictate. It's nice to continue sailing in light air rather than be forced to motor. Speed can also help you sail out of harms way if a storm is on it's way. 2). Larger cats contribute to comfort by reducing the (fore/aft) pitching at sea. Above 40' also allows for full standing headroom in saloon without looking top heavy. Additionally, the waterline makes a difference, even on fast cats unless you can get it up on a plane. 3). Cat (or multi) vs Mono still comes down to personal preference. Mono's have the following advantages: A) Cheaper to buy, maintain and berth (store at marina/dock). B) Typically sail upwind better than a cat. C) Mono's are less weight sensitive (You can pile alot of weight on them). In most other categories, Cat's have the advantage: A) Speed when beam reaching or downwind. B) Living space for people, solar panels, water toys and dinghy's. C) Maneuverability/redundancy when motoring. D) Better motion at sea (my preference). E) Shallower draft for anchorages/sand bars. F) Many multi's are unsinkable. The Cat/Multi advantages list continues but those are the major ones I can think of right now. My preference is definitely a Cat/Multi, as long as I afford it.
@koborkutya73383 жыл бұрын
1. With a fast boat you can try to outrun weather, which is probably safer than to endure it, esp on ocean passages. 3. Rich cruisers tend to buy cats. If I had the money I would buy an alu cat for general cruising and liveaboard. Bigger, more stable, less wet and normally faster, more deck space for solar and greater technical redundancy. But I also want to visit high lats (Alaska and British Columbia) for very long times out, that takes lots of suppliers calling for a higher displacement boat like the Pelagic boats. Me being too short on money, for the same amount of money I would prefer to buy a sturdy alu bluewater monohull of adequate size and better quality equipment than a cat of mediocre quality and rigging.
@carl87903 жыл бұрын
Sup. 1. Like others have pointed out, speed is crucial for avoiding or escaping dangerous weather, unless your sailboat is durable enough to withstand rough water, which I highly doubt it will, and please don't risked it. 2. Why not? If you can afford a performance model, but please keep in mind that these models are more designed for performance and NOT so much for practicality and comfort. Some sacrifices will varied depending on one's demands out of their sailboat. 3. From my experience. Nothing beats the speed and sailing performance of a monohull and they're great starting sailboats for those with a tight budget. Cats on the hand are awesome for those whom may want a little bit more room and comfort for their sailing adventures. They're also very stable and much more user friendly...well expect for the maintenance.
@gerritgovaerts84433 жыл бұрын
As to 2) a definite NO . While displacement (non planing) monohulls suffer from max hull speed which is defined by their hull length (longer is faster) , well designed multihulls with narrow hulls (length to beam ratio >= 12) do not have this limit . That is why the Rolex Fastnet was recently won by a 42 ft cat (Marsaudon Composites TS42) in competition with much longer cats . A similar TS42 also won the 2020 ARC rally and set a new record .

I love the overall design of the Mumby 48. Aesthetically, from beam on it isn't my favourite, but I can easily get past that when I consider all the benefits it brings. The dagger boards and kick up rudders are genius. Welded-in deck fittings and hatch frames, brilliant. You talk in later videos about welding in aluminum though hulls, another great idea. All together most of these things, in my mind, potentially take out 'some' of the the mundane tasks and expense of GRP boat ownership and really when you get right down to it, make for a much stronger built boat. I was talking to someone about what is better, GRP or aluminum for a boat. What he said has stuck with me- "There is a reason the Coast Guard builds their boats out of aluminum and not GRP." You say you have it 'loaded down' and it still blows around in the lightest of breezes. I think when you are finished with your circumnavigation Mr. Mumby might want to talk to you about a job promoting his product! You might have a second career waiting for you. 😉👍🏾

I just found your channel and will be binge watching to catch up. I lived/worked in the PI for 7 years in the 80's (West coast of Zambales, Luzon) , then returned to USA and built my 31' F-9A trimaran. It was launched it in 1993 and I still have it but I want to cruise on a 42-47' cat now. It's hard to find one that's reasonably priced, performs good and is not an ex-charter beat-up boat. If I were younger, I'd build it myself but at 61, I don't have that energy anymore. I hope some of your episodes cover the building in the PI. I have a lot of questions for you but I'll start with basics: 1) Where in the PI did you build? 2) Where are you based at during the Covid lockdown? (edit - I'm sure this will be answered as I catch up with episodes) 3) Would you have it built in the PI again, if you had to do over again? 4) Were you at the build site for most of the build? Good Luck and Best of Wishes to you guys on your adventure (I will have many more questions)...

Hi Steve. Glad you're watching... Yeah I wished we had started taking videos back when i was in PI... Still my favorite place, and probably where i will end up after the circumnavigation. El Nido perhaps. Sure, bring on the questions... 1. The designer/builder (aussie, Tim Mumby) had a yard set up in the little province town of Carmen, which is 2 hours bus ride north of Cebu city, Cebu. 2. We were stuck in Capetown... Hout Bay to be precise... It really is a beautiful spot there... but a bit scary during the lockdown, because of the very poor locals there, going hungry. 3. The big advantage of PI to build is labour costs are low... ($7-$15 usd per day for a labourer)... but the disadvantages are importing (or smuggling) your gear in... there are high import taxes, so you tend to smuggle as much as possible. 4. No i only visited for a few days most months. Cheers

Thanks Rabukan... Yep ally cat. There's no official specs around... Specs are so subjective, and really difficult to compare oranges with oranges... You cant fairly compare boats on paper when they are tested with different sea states, winds, loadings, crews etc... And never believe the manufacturers performance specs! From experience these boats go well... Much better than condo cats... Recently I had an unofficial match with an Atlantic 55 and we out performed it... Twice. Another Mumby Sulanga (Cape Town) led the Cape to Rio cruising division for much of the way, until they retired due to not wanting to risk some severe weather. It's a great performance cruiser and a true blue water cat.

Heya Warren. Yeah finally broke away from the job... although it was only supposed to be for a year initially.... now with covid19 everybody is out of a job! Hope you're enjoying retirement mate.

just found your site, I love some of those design elements, looks good while and manage to use the KISS principle. I'd love to hear your thoughts on aluminum hull vs everything else. I hope you'll share some cost break down too(I'll have to see if you have other vids as I just noticed this one is 8 months old lol)

Thanks Robert. Yeah, the stiff/strong ally build gives great confidence in bigger seas, or reefs or even lightning storms! There's around 40 of these built so far, either by the designer himself, his brother, or owner/builders... If you're clever enough you can knock one up yourself for about $200k...but I got the designer to make mine and it cost around $300k usd....

You haven't said it yet but I've seen a clue...if that's an aluminum boat then you own my favorite boat ever...I'm waiting.... Oh boy, when you were showing the breakaway rudder I could hear it...it is a metal boat! I love your boat! The electrics are a little more difficult to wire, but they're worth it!

Geez, I thought I said it... But you guessed it... Yeah I love the ally construction... Gives me confidence in big seas and lightening storms.

I wonder if you can get an electric motor that connects to your shaft prop instead of a diesel engine. That seems like it would be much better than a diesel engine.

Sure can... But not cheaply available yet.

AWESOME introduction of your boat and yourselves! Your extended back story was excellent and really inspiring. Love the aluminum boat, how thick was the Aluminum used? It is very clear you've developed excellent do it yourself skills, so what if you made something to organize the spare lines in the laundry room...something similar to an oversized rack for men's ties, except scaled for all the spare lines? An easier fix could be just installing a heavy duty shower curtain rod to hang them from? Anyway, that's just a couple of quick ideas, you've probably got it handled by now. Cheers!

Hey thanks Leo... The hulls are 4mm...and cheers for trying to clean up my laundry!... But the ropes lying there help keep my washing machine in place in rough seas, as does the spinnaker and storm jib!
