This series has been the deepest look at a Neel. Well done.

@@SV-DEDICATED Apparently SV Tonic Boatwives Channel have been threatened with being Sued by Neel if they Publish an honest highly Critical Review of a Neel Trimaran and the Faults they Discovered while delivering a New One ? Based on Positive Prior information, I had been giving a Positive opinion of Neel, other thanbthe unavoidable costs due to three hulls, but tbh, the only Multihulls I can give a positive View on now, are Nautitech and Catana Catamarans, but while both are excellent at Sailing Upwind, as Igor Stropnik has begged - please can you give an approved Method of successfully Sailing Downwind ? Side Note, and I am NOT 100% Sure this is Correct, but it might be - I think the problem may well be cured with a shorter Air Draft Masts, with in Mast Furling, combined with a much Shorter Boom, for getting a kind of 'Blade Effect' narrow Main Sail, which would greatly Reduce or even eliminate the Wind Shading effect on the Head Sails ? The downside would be the extent to whichnit would affect the Sailing to Windward Performance. This kind of Mast, Main Sail and Headsail setup is exactly what I am looking to achieve with my Next Sailboat, which will be a Monohull, which should provide lots of useful Data, and as a Cruising and Voyaging Sailboat, should still have more than adequate performance anyway, from a Suitably Designed series of Test Main Sail Developments. I just need my Piggybank to fill back up again - possibly in 2025, and definitely by 2027, if I don't Die First. 😀 Best Wishes. Bob. 👍🌟🌟🌟♥️⛵️

Hi Guys. Chartering looks to be the least complicated way of Sailing in the Mediterranean, as if you take your own boat there, it becomes an expensive and Bureaucratic nightmare, and to even be able to check in, in many places, you have to have an international Certificate of Competence, for example. I was lucky enough to Sailing the Mediterranean in the 1960’s and 1970’s when it was pre European Union, easy lack of Bureaucracy and very Cheap.The Closest I will get today, is from the South of England Coast, using Michael of the Sailing Gently Channel Gentle Coastal Route down the West Coast of France, to Northern Spain, then down the West Coast of Portugal to Gibraltar. It is an absolute Treasure of a Route, and a brilliant journey, with a stopover at pretty much every Port every night, and if the weather is bad, no problem waiting for a good weather Window to go on. Gibraltar is great for fuel and Provisioning, then personally, I skip Madeira and the Canary Islands and head Straight for Cape Verde islands and cross the Atlantic from There. If I remember right, video of that Gentle Route to the Mediterranean is on the Sailing Gently Channel, but the Downloadable Book with updated charts etc is now in its 12th Edition. Michael has done a lot of really good books, and next trip, I will be updating the Gentle Route one, plus his preparing to Cross the Atlantic one for the checklist, in case I forget anything.Thanks for the look see videos, Corsica was nice when there were still Bandits in the Hills🤣 Best Wishes and Safe Travels. Bob.👍🌟🌟🌟❤️⛵️

Thanks Bob, we are chartering an X-Yacht in Greece next September. It is easier and we don’t plan on taking Cavu to the med when we leave.
