Good point.

This cruising world article (http://tinyurl.com/2ssllf) mentions that
the boat had a particular problem with bridge deck pounding. It isn't
a very flattering description of the boat which is worrying given CW's
tendency to go easy on its advertisers...

Continuing the day's import theme, the next boat on the list was the
Jaguar 36. The nominating team, including the co-authors of this
story, felt it was an interesting addition to the expanding market of
cruising catamarans. But the judges couldn't have disagreed more
strongly.

"I looked at the price [$230,000] and thought we might have a Best
Value from the multihull class," said Lee. "But no matter what the
relative cost, a value boat still has to be a good boat. Layout-wise,
you had to walk through a head to get to a stateroom, and that's
faulty no matter how good the workmanship is. And it was the only cat
we sailed that had underwing pounding."

"I saw delaminated wood and thin fiberglass laminates," said Sherman.
"In my opinion, the build quality on this vessel was very low."
