Micheal, I didn't do a sailyacht or Caribbean but a Capri 30 about the same vintage.   I have a website showing how and what I had to do to make the changes and repairs..   www.redeemedcc.com       Dave K --- On Wed, 7/8/09, weber_michael_48 <weber_michael_48@...> wrote: From: weber_michael_48 <weber_michael_48@...> Subject: [chriscraftsail] sail yacht 35 or Caribbean 35 To: chriscraftsail@yahoogroups.com Date: Wednesday, July 8, 2009, 7:20 PM Hi, Looking for an affordable long term live aboard cruiser I found Cris Craft sailboats which would be fit into my requirements. I like the classic design of the sail yacht 35. Being a tall guy the boat is suffering a bit standing headroom in the aft cabin and the for cabin seems to me not very homely. But this boat was build very solid in the golden age of fiberglass and the interior can be modified. Except the standing headroom in the aft cabin and the missing enclosed second head. The Caribbean 35 layout seems to me much more suitable for long term cruising, especially when one is not alone. Headroom is from the spec sufficient but I didn't found any measurement of the bunks of both models? But what about the quality of the fiberglass work? Minimum the deck seems to be balsa cored and the hull? I want to have a very solid boat for probably cruising the Caribbean and later the Pacific. Does somebody have the information required? ------------------------------------ Yahoo!
