El Comanche bate el récord del Atlántico de monocascos

[chukel]

En realidad le queda alrededor de media hora y una trasluchada para llegar a Lizard, pero ya tiene el récord en el bolsillo pues lleva más de 500 millas de ventaja con respecto al récord del Mari Cha IV, establecido en 2003 al cruzar desde Bishop Rock (NY, USA) a Lizard Point (UK) en 2003 en 6 días, 17 horas y 57 minutos, a una media de 19 nudos.

Juer 5 días solo para cruzar el charco.
Auténtico F1 del mar y como tal, espartano no es la palabra a nivel de interiores..... sino que por dentro esta vacío. No es cómoda ni la mesa de cartas, sin apenas luz y con apenas 1.5 m de altura.

Pero es lo que es.... Y a Roma lo que es de Roma

el mari cha III de Briand tiene 147 pies, en 2008 batió el récord del atlántico en 8 días 23h59m, en unos 9 días


The owner’s requirements were not only a luxurious and comfortable, but also high performance cruising boat, the fastest in her category. In order to obtain a yacht with a modern and dynamic style, specific care was taken with the design of all lines and details on deck. Refitted in 2005, her accommodation includes three large guest cabins, a large saloon, a crew area for 8, as well as a garage for the tender located in the transom. Located above the central engine room, the pilot house is protected by a styled coachroof which offers an excellent watch position, a fully equipped navigation area and raised seating. Designed by the award winning John Munford, the interior decoration is classic in style, with mahogany veneers. Mari-Cha III is the largest performance yacht, sailed entirely by hand. The reason why a split sailplan was chosen: the winches may be driven hydraulically or by means of pedestals. As well as being an incredibly comfortable yacht, Mari-Cha III is also extremely exciting to sail. She beat the Transatlantic Record in 1998; making the voyage in just 8 days 23 hours 59 minutes and 43 seconds.



es mas "lento" pero mas comfortable
