Re: Bestevaer 49ST

This is quite disturbing. I have been talking with Jildou about Zenith and other Bestevaers, discussing options and manufacturing techniques. We haven’t yet discussed warranty issues but it looks...

Re: Bestevaer 49ST

That's probably a good idea John. I'll copy to a new thread and enjoy learning from the replies, wherever they come in.

Re: Bestevaer 49ST

So I've received a friendly reply email from Ms Jildou Huisman at KMY, with handy info focussing on the Bestevaer Pure yachts, noting that I'm keen (need!) to keep costs contained.

The Pure 45...

Re: Bestevaer 49ST

Ooo, yes please! 🙂

For balance you might simply list things you’re pleased with while offering detail on things you’d change.

Some manufacturers host forums where customers, real and...

Re: Bestevaer 49ST

NE, SWL - quick question. I haven't been able to find what kind of keel arrangement you have on Zenith. From the interior it's not looking like a lifting keel, but it could be a Dykstra style...

Re: Bestevaer 49ST

Golly, there's been a few contributions lately. :) All useful, in my view. Actually, I am keen to learn about how polar bears get into boats. This thread, about building a boat that can take intrepid...

Re: Bestevaer 49ST

Hello NE and SWL.

I'm reading through the thread again; such a mine of good information. :)

I've been in a quandary about a particular design aspect since finding the thread way back, and just...

Re: Bestevaer 49ST

Yes, it's a bit of a stretch ...

I watched a vid today of some guys who sailed the North West Passage, the hard way, in a ~40 year old Hallberg-Rassy 31 footer. Food for thought.

Re: Bestevaer 49ST

Fair enough.

I'll have a good play with the generic numbers I've asked KMY to send me. See how it compares with the other boats I've mentioned.

I really like the idea of having those 360...

Re: Bestevaer 49ST

AUD? Really?

Edit. Gotta be EUD, surely. Even that seems hard to believe.

Re: Bestevaer 49ST

Oh, so sorry for drawing it to your attention. I was sure it had been spotted before.

But don't feel too bad. I saw a friend's new boat recently and straight away pointed to the name and home port...

Re: Bestevaer 49ST

Hello noelex and SL.

Again, thanks for this thread. Inspiring stuff!

Re: Bestevaer 49ST

Hello noelex and SL. Great boat! Thanks for the thread.

Um, re the Tank Tender gauge, does it really say 'Washinginton'?
