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.

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: http://www.yachtworld.com/core/listi...oat_id=1415603 I hope that link worked .. |

The CSY 33 has windows along the side of the cabin sort of like a pilot house. http://thecoverts.com/csy/starflyer.jpg http://cruisersforum.com/photopost/data/500/100csyA.jpg http://thecoverts.com/csy/rhapsody.jpg grandma Rosalie S/V RosalieAnn, Leonardtown, MD CSY 44 WO #156 http://home.mindspring.com/~gmbeasley/id1.html That's a nice boat. |

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 .. |

I love the Saturna 33. I once had a neighbor who would sail to Hawaii
each fall with his. My cousin has a Truant 37 but I haven't been aboard yet. I should have asked him about it at Thanksgiving - I had forgotten about these boats. Thank's for the remind . |

I really need to get out of the hole .. No I don't think so, but you could sit up on a stool at the nav table and look out without too much trouble I would think. Actually for that boat, you can sit in the saloon and look out through the cockpit at whatever is behind the boat (because it is an aft cockpit boat). http://www.photoworks.com/share/shar...32C2BF51&cb=PW are some pictures of the interior. A CSY is not a cheap boat to buy however, especially the 33 because there aren't many of them. grandma Rosalie |

What's your preferred size range and budget? There are many nice raised salon and pilothouse sailboats, but most are larger (and more expensive). Since others are mentioning 30'+ boats -- how about an Islander Freeport 36? Matt O. |

How about a Bolger Birdwatcher? I believe there was a write-up in
WoodenBoat a few issues ago... wrote in message oups.com... When I'm moored I want to be able to sit at the table in my cabin and have a view.

Thank's Gary, Mat, and Rosalie for the help. I'm really looking for a
new boat. I haven't posted here at this forum for many year's. I have forgot my original name, but Rosalie will remember me as - the guy who was wanting to know about his AM radio while sailing too close to a freighter - and the radar. In Puget Sound. Ohhh - you chewed-me out. I'd like to get back to this forum as long as JAX and other troll's are not here. Thank's All. especially you Rosalie .. Thank's |

CSY's seem to be well thought out boats. We chartered a37 w/ another couple
years ago and were very impressed. The following year just the two of us booked a 33, but one 33 was out of commission, so they upgraded us to a 37. We liked getting the bigger boat, but I always regretted not experiencing the 33. You have a right to be happy w/ your 44.

Pretty much every single catamaran made has a great view from the
dining room. Some even sail well! |
