    There is also a website that talks about their design decisions...

    That seems cheap for that boat, although I guess it is a somewhat unusual layout.

    I've been on a similar boat, designed by Jay Benford in St Michaels, and they are VERY nice inside, really very well made and very solid and quiet.

    Westerbeke Diesel engines. 240 hp. And only 7.6 kw generators. Probably a misprint.

    The boater who created Active Captain and sold it to Garmin bought Billy Joel’s old 65’ Coaster, Red Head. We saw her in Key West and months later in Washington DC. They have a real tramp freighter look to them, but not the hull shape. They also look best in the larger sizes IMHO. They were built in Guatemala or Honduras in steel as a semi-custom boat. There was also one that foundered at anchor somewhere in the Chesapeake Bay in a small squall, there was some controversy in the online forums at the time as to whether the cause was stability, seamanship or design. As usual google has the details.

    Anyway Red Head at 65’ lwl is a great looking boat, more of a small ship, really.

    I guess I think in terms of a 56MY or 58MY and a million bucks in the bank vs that.
