I agree with some other comments... I think this might have worked better if the guy just said, "so...hey, let me tell you about this boat..." The lady just makes it feel like a weird infomercial.
Something no one mentions about these flybridge cats that are so popular is that they have to raise the boom like 15-20 ft off deck-level, which reduces the 'end-plate effect' of sail performance.... basically, their performance is significantly reduced.
I could do a better review off the cuff. This is stilted and lame. Get someone else to do the next review please. I would not buy from either of these people.
The guy looks like he's got a hangover. The boat would be 100% better if it can incorporate the interior layout and design cue of the latest Lagoon 560.
@leimdawg talk about bias assuming that all reviews are like this in the US. this is a combo of a cheesy comercial and horrable acting. but at least be both agree on the boat is great
Funny, I was searching for the Compass Rose - an 1863 Wooden Replica Schooner when I stumbled upon this boat. Totally not it - but very nice. Huge difference between "sailing" on the real Rose - where you pull some 20 different lines, etc. and this boat where your feet hit an electric button. The ship I was in search fo probably costs more too, but to each his own. Those in search of convenience love this. For me - I want to SAIL!!!!
@dyaginuma What strikes me is that a lot of people on the west coast spend that much on a home when they could invest in something like this and live aboard.
Horribly scripted "interview"

Is this what you call a review in USA? Biased and commercial oriented. This is not a review, it's a sales pitch. Cool boat anyways.
