Re: Finding the monohull family cruiser for ARC 2019

And I think I will charter our current boat instead of selling it, will be more money in two years only than selling it. So maybe such a Jeanneau will sell for 200000 SEK in two years. Still lots of...

Re: Finding the monohull family cruiser for ARC 2019

The Jeanneau - it's realistic alright. This boat makes sense, it says it's light at sailguide.com. Say we have bad luck and end up in a storm in the middle of the Atlantic. We'll try to get out of...

Hi!
Me + wife + Three kids. If we leave 2019 (maybe 2020) they will be 9, 11 and 13 years old. Not sure if the 9 + 11 can share the bow cabin. Schooling plans, I should be able to cater for their...

Thanks for the advice. I really liked the Jeanneau 42.1 interior layout. So is the boat up to the task. Maybe so. We're buying in two years time so I am compiling an Excel sheet in which I list the...
