One thing to be careful about is the potential or lack thereof of builder or manufacturer support further down the road. Saga Yachts were very cool boats with an awesome design, but a mercurial and dishonest owner and builder company. Saga merged (bought up?) Pacific Seacraft when it was

Length of the boat is not the only factor in maneuverability. My Hylas 44 had a fairly short keel and a 3 blade max prop. It would only back to port. My 49 has a much longer keel and a Gori prop and can be backed in either direction easily. This is not an indictment of the Max, its just how it

Danny, I may be preaching to the choir here and you may have already thought of this but Oyster 47 handling vs. Tartan 40 handling is a different order of magnitude in close maneuvering. Not the size per se, but the weight. A thrusting bow may something to look for. From: Danny Haughey via
