Click on the youtube logo on bottom right of video and then open full screen.

Re: Best Pilothouse Sailboat?
Nope, it didn't work.
Are you SURE you own a Roberts Mauretius?
It may be the Aussie sun and beer combination taking its toll.

Re: Best Pilothouse Sailboat?
Maybe it's just really untidy right now, loose lines laying around, green slime at the waterline maybe. I can understand not wanting to share a picture of this vessel of renowned reputation.


Ya, I understand.......

I saw the Sirius 40DS at Southampton BS last year and it immediately became my dream cruising boat. Some superb design elements. However at about 500,000 Euros it's a factor of ten outside my budget! Until I win the lottery/invent free energy/rob a bank, I am currently negotiating the purchase of a 1980 Nicholson 40DS, which is a great design for its day, built very solidly and reputedly does everything really well!

This is the best pilothouse sailboat. 1980 Nicholson 40 DS.
Why the best?
Because it's now mine! :-)

Ummm...


DS stands for deck saloon. A deck saloon is not a pilothouse.
