Eric,
Thanks for the info, will look it up, saw something similar, maybe the same, a few years ago, with some very cool boats, a bunch of them doing The Great Loop, one Mac 26 guy and his wife getting ready to do second Loop.
The 'hybrid' is a real undiscovered niche, and, for me, an ideal situation without having to pay huge bucks for a Ranger or Nordic Tug types. Also gives me the flexibility of travel, and a place to stay on the road....
I love the Yamaha 9.9 High Thrust, elec start and tilt, may put that on this boat if the cruising speeds are similar to the 35 Honda, had the Yamaha 8 and 9.9 on 31' trimarans and a similar catamaran, also on two Catalina 22s. A few months away from sea trials, which I will do on a lake north of San Francisco, then the SF Bay. (BTW, the trimaran I bought in French Creek, north of Nanaimo, sailed it to SF...)
