Sailboat Cabin W/View ?
 
When I'm moored I want to be able to sit at the table in my cabin and
have a view. Even when I'm under way I'd like to go below and sit and
have a view. It seem's that very few sailboat's are arranged this way.
The Coronado 25 is. The Asian H28's are. I'm tired of staring at the
wall's - do you know of other boat's with a room with a view?

In general terms, most boats configured with pilothouses give you the
view you seek.

Most modern cruising catamarans have the main saloon raised up with
excellent views. I had to add screens to my windows because there was
too much light and heat coming through.

Gosh .. I'd love a cat. or a pilothouse. Once I was in a tri. with a
great view table, and once in a Panda40 Pilothouse with a huge table in
the house. Probably can't afford those yet. I'm just looking for a
basic sloop 27ft.-34ft.. Here is a window from a Coronado25:

I hope that link worked ..

All pilothouses.

The CSY 33 has windows along the side of the cabin sort of like a
pilot house.

do you know of other boat's with a room with a view?


I always dreamed of a boat made of the same acrylic plastic as the
monstrous side window in the 80' deep Charleston Aquarium's main tank.
It's about 3" thick at the base and optically flat!

I'd much rather look down into the sea in a clear plastic hull under the
table than look out at the same ol' waves and swamp grass you're seeing
out the windows, wouldn't you?

"Wow, honey, look at the size of that WHALE 20' under our keel!"
It would never be so boring in the cabin, again....(c;

"Can you read the hull number on that sub off the starboard keel??"

Pilothouse boat's offer good visability. I'd need a large enough house
for two to sit at a table. I can't afford my dreamboat - the Panda40
Pilothouse. Some salons have a raised floor where the table is so that
you are at eye level with windows when seated. Rosalie, is the CSY one
of those boat's? Thank's all. Any other ideas out there? I really need
to get out of the hole ..
