There’s seamanship in evidence in much of the design: the bow platform has twin bow rollersas standard, and the chain locker below is split in two thereby accommodating both sets of chain. A sloping shelf beneath the hawse pipe helps the chain to self-stow and there’s easy access through the forward cabin if it doesn’t. It’s the kind of simple, pra...
The cockpit is carried all the way aft to the pushpit. It’s a big space, which is exactly what you want in the lower latitudes where you spend more time outdoors, but it feels wide when heeled. There are two huge lockers under the cockpit seats and there’s space beneath the cockpit sole for a generator. A split backstay and small sugar scoop makes ...
There’s a structural ‘pan’ which forms the sole, and the bulkheads, structural webbings and many of the bunks and seats are bonded to the hull to give more rigidity. It’s a more labour-intensive process than the ‘tray’ style construction of many production boats, but the result is a much stronger structure. The headlining is a single moulding, whic...
Despite Jalan Jalan’s fairly high mileage, there wasn’t so much as a scuff in the gelcoat or joinery. They’re the kind of boats that attract conscientious owners and many of the examples on the market have been well looked after. The accommodation on offer is as much about what you don’t see as what you do see. The deep bilges are cleverly compartm...
The self-tacking staysail sheets are closer to the centreline, so in stronger winds you’d achieve better tacking angles from this. Off the wind we reached along at 6.5-7 knots in blustery Force 6, but there was a law of diminishing returns above that. In light airs she was impressive though, managing 3.5-4 knots in 6-8 knots breeze, which is valuab...
Ben Sutcliffe-Davies, Marine Surveyor and full member of the Yacht Brokers Designers & Surveyors Association (YDSA) www.bensutcliffemarine.co.uk Over the years I’ve surveyed several of these for both pre-purchase and insurance claims. These vessels have a distinctive off-white/cream hull moulding colour; while attractive, it can be a headache for y...
Moody was to the British what Island Packet was to the Americans: reliable, solidly built cruising boats. They had a prodigious output, over 160 Mk 1 Moody 38scame out of the mould in the 1990s, and a further 37 of the Mk 2 version in the 2000s. Owing to the centre cockpit, the master cabin is aft rather than forwards. Described by the original Yac...
Nauticatis not a name you normally associate with handsome sailing yachts. They’re better known for their quirky motor sailors but in the 1980s and 1990s a touch of thoroughbred was introduced to the stables of the Finnish design team. A series of much more athletic boats appeared, including the Nauticat 39. With a narrow beam, relatively light dis...
Another American cruiser which has been popular in Europeis the Hunter Legend 41. Like the Island Packet 380, it’s broad-shouldered and beamy with high topsides. The interior is voluminous. The B&R rig is a trademark feature of the Hunter brand. Originally designed by Swedish engineers Lars Bergstrom and Sven Ridder, it removes the need for a backs...
Aug 28, 2000 · The new 380 will be drier and, with a finer angle of entry, it will probably be faster. It's a nice look that complements the reverse transom and swim step aft. The high-volume keel shape results in a high D/L of 313, but that's typical of full-keel boats.
