Cruising Sailors Forum Archive

the Dashews motorboat that goes anywhere, anchored there as well. It really is a unique spot to spend an overnight.

They posted some great photos on their website below. WINDHORSE is personal design(I gather from their website) gleaned from years of trying to get somewhere fast and comfortably with a sailboat.

You can tell it's a sailors motorboat with it's easily driven hull and outriggers for softening days of rolling downwind. It has purposeful beauty.

        Thanks for the info.
        I thought for sure that was a Shannon, but a 42'er.
        
        See, carries the pilothouse well, eh?
        
        I bought a little pilot house this year
