aprile 2008 - La luminosità è un tratto distintivo di tutta la gamma dei deck saloon, e il quarantacinque piedi non ne fa eccezione. Soprattutto in quadrato, finestrature, oblò e osterigi forniscono luce naturale in quantità. L'organizzazione degli spazi è classica, con una forte attenzione per il confort. Due le versioni messe a disposizione dal cantiere: a due o tre cabine.

aprile 2008 - Si tratta, probabilmente, del modello più riuscito nella gamma dei deck saloon firmati Jeanneau. Questa barca, infatti, oltre a confermare le caratteristiche proprie di ogni DS quali la stabilità e la manovrabilità, si dimostra più brillante sotto vela. L'ottima razionalizzazione degli spazi, inoltre, non fa rimpiangere i metri in più offerti dalla sorella maggiore.

Carmen Diaz has lived with Snipes as part of her family since 1947 when she got together with her high school sweetheart, Gonzalo. Since then she's watched as three generations of the Diaz family have sailed this one design boat around the world. The people she's met at regattas are a big part of her extended family and she's a big part of the Snipe family.

Henry Filter started sailing Snipes 25 years ago when he got out of college. Now he's sailing a lot with his son Christian. They just won the Special Jr. National Championship in Pensacola. Henry believes the Snipe is a special one design class. A class where information is freely given and honesty and fair play dominate the racing on the water. Those are just the sort of values he wants to teach his children.

Christian Filter's been sailing with his dad for a little more than three years, but skippering seems to run in the family as Christian drove to third place in the Snipe Junior competition this year at Pensacola and then crewed for his dad as they took 13th in the Heinzerling fleet. He's got a good perspective on what makes sailing a Snipe fun.

The last time I sailed Offatts was in the 70s with a buddy named Harold. Now I've sailed it again with his son John. We met another sailor on the water there, Al, who built the beautiful boat he was sailing. It was a beautiful day with a consistent breeze from the gulf that you just don't get on a lake. And thanks to Mary (John's mom) for the great dinner that evening. I'm feeling pretty smug and spoiled right now.

We have just got back home from another wonderful cruise in the Bahamas. We stopped en route from the Caribbean up to the Chesapeake Bay and were lucky to be able to spend almost 6 weeks in the Bahamas. For anyone who hasnt considered the islands as a cruising destination - here is a primer on sailing in these shallow waters. Not familiar with Distant Shores?

marzo 2007 - Il Dufour 365 è una barca facile da condurre, indicata per la crociera pura, ma dotata di uno scafo, disegnato da Umberto Felci, che garantisce divertimento e emozioni anche con vento scarso.

marzo 2007 - Gli interni del Dufour 365 sono particolarmente comodi. Intelligente e originale lo sfruttamento degli spazi che vedono una cabina di prua con il letto matrimoniale appoggiato a murata, particolarmente spaziosa.
