Re: went to the boatshow today...
The entire trend in sailboats has been to make them as desirable as power boats. To do that they need big interiors and entertainment areas. I hear people at boat shows rave about cats and say monos are too cramped. Sellers focus on push button technology and creature comforts like fully loaded "kitchens". It's what buyers want today.

In years to come, this kind of sailboat will have been fully tested. It will be interesting to see how that pans out.
