Though classic sailing boats are generally considered in this day and age to be heavy and slow, we also find some wonderful examples of light displacement and seaworthy boats from the drawing boards of some of the doyens of classic yacht design. Laurent Giles, Uffa Fox and Ricus van der Stadt come to mind. The Royal Cape One Design designed by Van der Stadt in the 1950's is a thirty footer that still holds some coastal records in South Africa and recently came third on handicap in the Cape to Bahia South Atlantic race. The boat, Suidoos, is half the age of the eighty years old skipper, Gawie Fagan. The seaworthiness of this design is unquestionable and her performance awesome. With lightness comes ease of sail handling, getting out of troubled spots fast and lower costs associated with smaller equipment.
Her light displacement, long waterline, flat aft sections, submerged transom, relatively narrow beam and large sail area, ensure both speed as well as easy handling in rough seas. The easy curvature and straightness of the diagonals indicate to a well-balanced and fast hull. Her fine entry angle and narrow beam will make her cut through the water on a beat with ease. Her displacement/length ratio is below 100 and her sail area/displacement ratio of just over 26 will ensure good light wind performance and exhilarating performance in a breeze. She should be fun to sail, easy to sail and maneuver, safe and strong and, above all simple in function and form.
She accommodates a couple and is my ideal boat for cruising in the Mediterranean. The large sail area can be reduced with the slab reefing and a roller-furling jib. She is also an ideal daysailer with her large cockpit that accommodates four adults with ease.
The preferred building method is wood composite with Western red cedar core and epoxy glassed inside and out. The rest is marine ply and epoxy glass. We can also build her with a core-cell core. She is constructed on CNC cut male frames. In addition, the bulkheads and furniture create a strong monocoque structure. Vacuum bagging and post-curing guarantee a light and strong boat. Despite the fact that scantlings are over specified, the painted hull, for example, weighs only 340 kg. Lightness and strength is emphasized. The styling is classic with a strong shear line, low freeboard, Mahogany cabin sides, tiller, toe rails, hand rails and cockpit coamings. The deck is painted with anti-slip paint (Awlcraft or similar). An over specified welded steel keel foil with bolted on lead bulb and a hard-wood core with epoxy glass rudder, gives peace of mind. All foils and the bulb are NACA sections optimized for maximum lift and reduced drag. The transom-hung rudder is balanced.
Moondance 30 has a well balanced 9/10th rig placed towards the center of the boat with single swept-back spreaders (22 degrees). The small 105% jib and the large fully battened main assists in ease of handling the sails. A large Code "O" will ensure excellent broad reaching. She should be able to generate sufficient apparent wind to make dead running obsolete. She comes with a small storm jib and the main can be reefed to 12 sqm for gale force winds. Her Dellenbaugh angle of 17 degrees will, nevertheless, make her quite stiff. |

Comet 33 is an ideal compromise between racing and cruising.
She spots a nine tenth fractional rig completely manageable from the cockpit, with sweptback spreaders, and a powerful hull with stretched and well balanced water lines, a large transom and reduced overhangs.
Optimised appendages for a sensitive boat; anodised mast with a very low weight/length ratio; Harken deck fittings; AISI 316 stainless steel deck gear.
All makes of Comet 33 a competitive racer, and all has been carefully studied to optimise her performance. A boat, which easily will give funny and exciting sailing while racing, even able to surprise as a cruiser. |

The Nauticat 351 is a completely renewed model based on the well-known Nauticat 35. In comparison with the 35, the 351 features a new deck design, which resembles the one of the Nauticat 37, including a large u-shaped seat for helmsman, and entrance to the cockpit from the sides.
New design of keel and rudder and a completely renewed construction of the bottom strengthening framework are some of the improvements compared to the Nauticat 35. The Nauticat 351 offers an considerable amount of living space inside, and the cabin is still in lead in terms of the volume and luxury in the category sailing yachts under 35 feet.

Some part acquired taste, some part pure sensation.
It takes much time and experimentation to develop the taste for a special single malt like a 12 year old Laphroaig from Islay. The sensation is unrivalled; a perfect synergy between product, context and consumer.
On the other hand the sensation of moving over water at speed is not an acquired taste. This is pure pleasure.
Moondance 39 is a boat for those that have acquired the taste for the exceptional, rare and personal experience of sailing something simple and graceful, without embellishments and without the clutter and mass of unwanted facilities. It is a boat for those that want to feel the exhilaration of pure speed with no fuss.
Moondance 39 is a modern performance yacht with elements of traditional styling. She has been designed to perform exceptionally well with little effort. Her slightly flared bows turn elegantly into a tumblehome stern combined with a low freeboard gives her a sleek and distinctive look. Below the waterline she is equipped with a state of the art underbody and appendices. Moondance 39 radiates style and performance.
The cockpit is gigantic. Two sofa-like seats measuring 2.6m by 0.5m surrounds a large cockpit floor only broken by the large tiller and main sail track. The internal arrangement is minimalistic and comfortable. A king size double fore-berth extends into two saloon seats and a galley and heads. The navigation area is similar to that found on open 60s; it is workmanlike and comfortable. |

The Young 38 was born out of a desire to create a supremely manageable yacht in all areas of performance and ease of ownership. The project was initiated by Rod Skellet (former Australian Super 30 champion) after experiences competing in the 2002 Transpac race. Since that time YYD ltd and Rod have been developing a new design/concept that pushes forward into a new area of the yachting marketplace.
The concept for the Young 38 was to create a yacht that could fit into a 40'shipping container on its own road trailer complete with a 2 piece mast. The yacht is very narrow with a very flat hard bilged hull shape and has a retracing/canting keel and removable ruder box. The yacht can be launched using a boat ramp or single point lift system. The Young 38 is designed to be crewed by 4 people so the entire program of shipping a yacht to any location in the world including crew costs is minimal allowing the owner to compete in a variety of regattas as and offshore races at a fraction of the costs normally associated with a vessel this size.
Sailing the Young 38 will be very exciting; the hull shape is designed to plane downwind and carry its sail area upwind thanks to the canting keel. Lateral resistance is provided by dihedral wings attached to the bulb keel. The interior can be set up for weekend cruising as needed. The exterior is very sleek with teak decks flush fitting bowsprit, recessed furling drum and under deck control lines to cockpit winches. |
