Four feet on a boat is a bigger deal than you may think. My 34 weighed about 10,000 pounds; my 42 weighs about 20,000 pounds. Only eight feet longer (approximately 20%), but twice as much boat.

We are talking 4’ here :) I’d need a 36-38’ boat if I’m really looking for space and privacy :) I’m an ice climber and mountaineer. I’ve spent two weeks in a tent pinned down in snow and wind. To me, a 10’ x 18’ space is palatial lol. I spend a majority of my time under the sun and in the wind on deck. I think that’s what it’s all about...right?? :) Give me a working cockpit and a reasonable place to lay my bones when the sun drops and I’m a Happy man. All relative I suppose :) Chris Sent from Yahoo Mail for iPhone On Thursday, October 11, 2018, 10:39 AM, Steve Staten via CnC-List <cnc-list@cnc-list.com> wrote: As the owner of a 26’, I have to agree with everyone on all points. Granted, this is my first boat with no prior sailing experience on my part. I cannot speak with experience concerning the advantages of one size over another. I CAN say that I would not care to spend a weekend sailing with more than one other adult-sized person in my boat. I just like my personal space, that’s all. I go sailing to get away from people.
