I know you said you liked the flybridge, but for world cruising, I would try and steer you away from this. Fantastic for charter and pottering around, but not somewhere where I would want to be in the middle of the ocean in snotty weather when the AP has broken.

Agree. Great for a skipper with charter guests but as a couple or a family cruising why would you want to isolate the sailing centre from the rest of the boat.

Catamaran Impi couple love their (highly modified) Lagoon 440 with flybridge. They’ve sailed more than most and think their flybridge is one of their boat’s best features. YMMV

If talking of wider range for RTW sailing, then my personal pick is totally different from these 2, sorry (((

Re: Leopard 50 OR Privilege 510

Whichever boat you select and based on personal experience after circumnavigating over 4.5 years we found that 90+% of your time is spent at anchor. A greatly undervalued aspect in choosing a boat in my view.
