Hi Chris,
You couldn't have picked a more perfect
boat for the
Med, Iv'e ciused from Gib to
Italy in a Cat, cruising the Spanish coast I opted for
marinas on many occasions and although tricky in places due to there being few available berths in some
marinas, by en large, I had very few problems, but where a cat comes into here own is when its time to
anchor and while all the mono's are rolling like pigs, the cats have a very comfortable stay at anchorage. I anchored off almost every evening while cruising the French and Italian
Med coast and I can't count the number of people who spent the evening aboard our
boat because there's was rolling too much. Your
shallow draft will come in usefull when all the deep
anchorages are taken by the big mono's along the Cote d Azure and you can
anchor in shallow
water and practicaly wade ashore. And on the balmy evenings when Mono crews are sitting in thier cramped cockpits, you can lounge under you sunshade with enough room for you and and all the other crews that will inevertably end the evening on your spacious boat.
Go
Catamaran, but go for it!
