Hello every one!
I just joined this forum and hope to make some good contacts. I am a shipwright/boatbuilder from Australia and 'between ' boats at the moment, I have done quite a bit of cruising in the Pacific region and my plan is to cruise Asian waters in the very near future..My last yacht was a 36'Seal Van de Stadt..a bit small, but an excellent performer, seakindly and comfortable..so I am looking for something around the 40 to 45', anyway, It will happen.
Cheers

Welcome Icarus,

Good luck on finding a new boat. I think 40-45' range is a nice size.
