Reply To: N33 overall lenght in a marina.

[Trevor Rose]

Hallo,My experience is that Marinas now get their tape measure on overall lengths of all newcomers.You are correct in debating the Nauticat model to buy comparing Marina costs.But you can save in diesel costs if you can live with a little less space found in a ketch and buy a N sloop.Either type is generally more economical if it has a 1 in its Model description.N sloops are more roomy than most other make sloops and generally can be steered from below when a situation dictates.But if you need that lovely large wheelhouse a ketch is the answer and an early 33 has no bowsprit thus reducing Marina costs.
