I’ve been looking into acquiring a 77 or a Sixty 7 for a while now, they seem to be the next step up for us and perhaps be great for full time living. However we also like to keep our crew minimal to max 2 people, if any at all, as we do enjoy a close knit ‘yacht family’ and we’re looking for a sailing cat we can rig up for diving. It seems like the higher crew need and also the lack of configurable options to outfit it more for scuba activities may be an issue for us.

Lagoons usually bore me, with hammy design, but this is something else. you could have commented on the decking...the narrow planks and light wood look amazing. if the owner is going to let you do a review, they might as well allow you to see the crew quarter - it takes less than half an hour to put away anything awkward. there were also quite a few angles missing in the bedrooms shown.

[@andreachinaglia5804]

The crew of that boat is enslaved, we are not supposed to see the chains, the cell bars, the torture implements, the traces of blood that even the most effective cleaners cannot remove. Joking aside I really appreciated how the owner wanted to respect the privacy of the crew, it's not a matter of the time it takes to make that space presentable to be filmed, which is nothing compared to the time it takes to keep the whole boat in impeccable condition, it's a matter of principles, of respect for those who work for you and their rights.

[@williamcampbell7485]

Absolutely Fantastic a very beautiful boat

[@catamarancentral]

Many thanks!

[@gregorydamario7977]

It is a beautiful boat. But... How well does it sail? What is the hull speed in optimum conditions? What is the average hull speed over the course of six months cruising the oceans? What is the cruising range under power? And something that always puzzles me, is crew comfort. Those are the people running the boat. So, in stormy weather, 20 foot waves, 30kt winds plus rain, the crew has to go out on an uncovered deck, open a hatch and climb down a ladder, then rest and recover in the forward, crashing into the waves portion, of the starboard hull, then for the next watch, get up walk the deck then go back to work. Just doesn't seem like a good way to treat the people responsible for keeping the owner alive. Where is the Captain's cabin? Why is there a large sofa in the owner's cabin? Why would anyone ever use that when there are so many better places to lounge upstairs? And isn't a king sized bed a suitable place to lounge? This boat is certainly large enough for 'round the world travel, but could you keep a crew on board long enough to accomplish that? I don't know, but I would love to hear from sailors who have crewed and captained boats this size on extended voyages.

[@jasonroznos7237]

I just sailed across the Atlantic. When sailing in storms and large seas safety is the main focus not entertaining and all hands are on deck. As far as the space goes the more the better and doing a long passage having private spaces to relax is fantastic. I was on a new Fontaine Pajot 47 which was as nice just a smaller layout. On a large boat crew is critical and usually friends or known people. Most sailors do not hire crew to be entertained when doing a crossing. The sailing community is like a big family. Some do hire unknown crew but is rare and usually falls into line with more money than sense. Being a part of a large cat doing a passage is more of a lifestyle than a job.

[@yangpradion9560]

@@jasonroznos7237 👍💯

[@jamier7073]

I would definitely live on that boat if I could buy one. She is beautiful. Only changes I would make to the exterior is a extended shade over the beach deck and also short ones over the side walkways as walking barefoot on that deck in a hot climate between the front of boat and the rear could be interesting as in firepit walking. Alternative would to have a fine jet of water come out and wet them

[@catamarancentral]

Thanks for the comments. Thats an interesting idea for keeping the deck cool

[@CupidinColorado]

Running costs for this ship would be informative for possible future owners…

[@giorgio5689]

It depends a lot on your needs... an experienced crew, captain cook and cabin boy, full-time costs around 200K a year and in addition you have to count berths and chores to keep her always shining...let's say that if you want to live her 12 months to year the cost is around 250/300K ...many prefer to use it for 6 months and the other 6 months you can rent it and recover part of the amount spent, there are specialized agencies that look for boats like this and pay handsomely ... in case you want to do a Charter I suggest you find excellent insurance in addition to the one that the agency offers you for all the damages that are done by uncaring people 😉

I'm not a fan of cat's, but this one is very well thought out. It would be nice to know what her performance values are...

[@1corinthians15.1-4kjv]

Well, compare the space of this 77 feet catamaran with the space of an equally length monohul, and maybe you will start to understand, what the fuzz is all about. I by the way could see the purpose of a monohul yacht in some conditions, as for instance if your dream is to sail in arctic regions or if you need to sail in regions, where docking only accommodates monohuls, as is kind of the case here in Scandinavia. But, if you dream is to anchor an sail in tropical or sub-tropical regions, catamarans is the way to go, in my opinion. This catamaran obvious is about sailing and living in luxury and it is not performance oriented at all, even though it sure would do well. It for sure in most conditions would out sail comparable luxury monohuls. But, other catamarans are performance oriented and also offers some great design and space ideas too, for a fraction of the cost really. Look up for instance Windelo 54.

​@@1corinthians15.1-4kjvI thought cats were better because they're safer in rough seas and high winds? And monohulls roll over easier in high winds. Isn't that the whole point of a cat? So wouldn't cats be better for artic conditions?

[@phaioncirrus3818]

@@markcook3913 they're SAFER but not "better" if better implies more comfortable on long journeys. They won't tip over as much but in medium seas the Cats wobble much more than equivalent mono because cats are much wider hulls and so the waves pick up one side while the other stays at the bottom of the wave, making it much more uncomfortable, whereas a mono takes the big waves more smoothly.
