Next message: Pascal Gademer: "Re: T&T: trawler vs motoryacht"
Pascal, you make an interesting point regarding wing doors. My 48 Hatt YF has
the wing doors and as you posted, a wonderful breeze comes through when
available. I love 'em. Of course the tradeoff is a narrow salon because of
catwalks. Since my Yorkie spends many leisure hours sunny and gawking at
neighbors on them, it's a good trade off for us.
I was initially concerned about buying an aft cabin boat because I feared
inadequate ventilation in back...and heat. A forward cabin with an opening
hatch is sooo nice. Well it turns out that without big windows, just
portholes, and cooler water than air, the aft cabin, down low, is one of the
cooler places on the boat.
And on occasional uncomfortable warm/humid nights in the NE, a 12 volt fan at
one amp draw is very low power way to temper unwanted heat.
