No, I meant as in way to much frosting on the cake. Way too many architectural elements. Drowning in essence of Batmobile. Of course the designers and builders like to charge for the extra, so it ends up being overpriced.  1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GBH 64 #32 Posted July 3, 2020 looks better from the back, but way too many sharp corners and and edges - easy to design and cheap to build but ouch. Too much in the way of architectural styling as Ned says, practicalities for life at sea pretty crap.

Loose Cannon 53 #40 Posted July 4, 2020 What’s up with the halyard winch location and stoppers.  You really need to have loaded up high tech stoppers making a bend around the cabin to? You will wither saw grooves in the coachroof or destroy the line. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Albatros 449 #41 Posted July 4, 2020 those fender lines running over the chine will in due course leave quite some traces, will need buffing regularly, could be avoided with little stainless strips but then that might ruin the designer's esthetics, o dear Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

For example: https://neoyachts.com/neo-570c/ Boats of that type usually have a SS gizmo that pops out of the anchor well to one side and lead the chain clear of the hull. They don't work too well. In theory the anchor will not get used very often so you can get away with pretty ordinary performance. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
