Sailing the San Blas Islands offers a breathtaking experience, but it requires both expert crew and careful planning due to the challenging conditions. Unlike other popular Caribbean destinations, bareboat charters are not allowed in San Blas because of uncharted waters, hidden reefs, and a lack of reliable marine infrastructure such as marinas and supply stores. The more than 365 islands are often surrounded by coral reefs, making navigation risky without local knowledge. To ensure a safe and enjoyable voyage, charters typically come with a skilled skipper and an inclusive provisioning plan, covering everything from fresh water and basic supplies to access to fresh seafood from local Guna fishermen. Catamaran Adventures offers discounts on charters not needing the provisioning, deckhand or cook. Contact us for further details.

► Full test in Multihulls World N°202 : https://www.multihulls-world.com/review/catamaran/new-41-an-attractive-catamaran-designed-to-be-accessible ► While this new model is the replacement for the Isla 40, it offers a volume equivalent to that of the Astrea 42, and all for a relatively tight price... You guessed it, the New 41, whose real name we’ll soon find out, is positioned from the outset as one heck of a challenger in the 40-foot market. This model, which we discovered exclusively at La Rochelle, proved to be gentle at the helm, very pleasant to live aboard and easy to handle. It features the brand’s signature dual helm/sail maneuvering station, a large sun-lounging area on the bimini and another one forward of the coachroof, a large surface area of solar panels (producing 2 to 2.3 kWp), a large opening hatch at the forward end of the nacelle and slightly angled aft berths. The boat we tested was equipped with an electric powertrain, which enabled us to cruise as far as the island of Ile d’Aix without generating any carbon emissions. As standard, the internal combustion option remains available. The New 41 will be presented at the Open Days event organized by the shipyard at the end of June in La Rochelle, then officially launched in September at the Cannes Yachting Festival. ► Technical Specifications: Builder: Fountaine Pajot Architects: Berret/Racoupeau Yacht Design Length: 39’8” (12.1 m) Beam: 22’8” (6.91 m) Draft: 5’ (1.53 m) Displacement: 28,000 lbs (12.7 t) Mainsail: 700 sq ft (65 m²) Genoa: 377 sq ft (35 m²) Engines: 2 x 20 or 30 HP/25 kW Cabins: 2 to 4 Bathrooms: 2 to 4 ► Become a FREE SUBSCRIBER to Multihulls World's YouTube page now - https://www.youtube.com/c/MultihullsWorld ► Log on to our website to discover over 600 multihulls tests!

This isn't just a vessel; she’s a floating testament to wartime engineering! Step aboard the Gyrfalcon, commissioned in 1941 to survey the brutal Aleutian Islands. Prepare to be amazed by the construction—we're talking about a hall framed with one foot of solid, old-growth fir designed specifically for ice navigation. For the serious engineers out there, you’ll want to see the twin cats and the massive fuel range built to conquer the harshest oceans on Earth. This classic boat reveals new secrets around every corner. Make sure to stay until the very end for the incredible, untold story involving General Patton, shared directly by her devoted stewards, Nancy Evers and Peter Mann! #YachtLens #WoodenBoat #ClassicYacht #BoatRestoration #Liveaboard #ChrisCraft #YachtTour #TrawlerLife #GardnerDiesel #ClassicBoat #WWIIHistory #ShipTour #NavalHistory #EngineeringMarvel #IceBreaker #Gyrfalcon #VintageVessel #Maritime
