I am a fan of the Tartan 4100. 19k lbs., rear queen bed, and 5.3 ft. beaver tail shoal draft. Good reputation for quality, and about $200k. Good rig. Don't get the sail drive version! lol

For a beginning cruising, I think you stay under 100k. For 67k for a Hunter 37, you could update this boat for a total cost of under 100k. I just don't see the value in a 45-foot boat with an acquisition cost of 350k.

You keep your steel ship away from my fiberglass old full keel sailboat in a big storm. The only way a hole can be punched into my boat, is from your steel ship. I don't need your help my old sailboat can survive any storm at sea.

Sorry Tim, but I have to disagree with your boat choices but I do agree with you on features. I would consider a wing keel, sheel keel, or long keel (with the Brewer bite). I also agree with you on the rigging configuration. Solar can also be augmented with a wind generator or watt n' sea hydro generator.

As to your suggested boats:
Hunter Legend 37: Fin Keel, spade Rudder, Capsize Ratio (CR) 2.09, and total displacement of 14,000# with 6.7' draft.
Catalina MKII 42: This boat is a possible maybe, but still: Fin keel, spade rudder, 6.7' draft, and a CR of 2.03. The Bal/Disp ratio is 40.5. She is a high performing coastal cruiser.
Beneteau Oceanis 45 has a capsize ratio of 2.14 and a spade rudder. Also a SAD of 22.7 which means, to me, that she is going to be a handful to sail.

IMHO, none of these boats qualify as being suitable for offshore. I would much prefer: cutter rig, skeg hung rudder, SAD of 20 or less, CR under 2.0, Bal/Disp of under 40, a 6' max draft and a comfort ratio of 25 or more. The Catalina 42 MK II , IMHO is about the best of the above bunch for venturing offshore. Again, IMHO she is also the best made of the three.

I would like to know more info on the Hans Christian 4750 Explorer and her sister The Halmark 4850. If you have any information about this vessels I would like to see a video about them. Thank you in advance for your time and consideration in this matter.

Did you say beginners guide? That means a smaller vessel. I would like a Bristol 27 or a Pearson Triton or similar.

I want to spend my holidays in the European waterways. I will start in Holland.

I'm eyeing a *sail*boat who fits into a shipping container, so I
1) Can store the boat cheaply at a Container Yard (CY). CYs are guarded.
2) Can get the boat to wherever I want to sail in a season. The averange cost of shipping a 40 ft FCL(=Full Container Load) is $1,809 - which is cheap, I think.
RTM Rotterdam to USMIA Miami, FL will take about 28 days.

For those who are interested,
The super-cheap washing-"machine" is pulling a rotating drum with content, when one is sailing.
If you put a serious amount of insulation around the drum, you will get positive buoyancy, and of course the possibility of using hotter water than the temperature of the surrounding sea.

Hi Tim. I've been enjoying your content for a long while now. I think your a keeper
Anyhow, my search today is for a video on how to assess your sails. I've only seen one by Sailrite. Plenty on how to measure but not enough "What to look for in sails to tell age, are they salvageable with a recut ? Are they scrap? "
I think this could be really good content if you would consider it.
Thanks for your efforts!
