Anyone got any views on extending a
Lagoon 40 by a few feet to improve seaway and performance? Both bow and stern, or one of these only?
We really don't need more
interior space, but are looking for a bit better performance and better seaway. From experience (chartering) i get this if I go a few foot bigger, but that quickly adds +$100k to the bill, and space I really don't need. I understand that the
boat will still be under-rigged with a too small main and
jib....but I am wondering whether from a boat-building perspective just adding 2-3 foot to bows and stern might make sense?
Also, if anyone has a view on whether the stern extension is even feasible or makes sense (re location of
saildrive and inclination of below-water line stern), please let me know as well!
Thanks!
