I think that for companies like HR, Najad, etc.. it is a mistake to build boats like
Bavaria: many, cheaper and all look and designed the same.
Why people got Najad (or HR, e.g.) was because they were different - stronger, heavier, safer. They also looked different.
Off course back then Najad could sell say 10 boats a year.
I have seen a big, brand new Najad last year that after only a minor crossing had problems in the
engine room and in the
steering department. Is this what one expects from a good
boat?
Sad news and a warning for other quality (anymore?)
boatyards.
