GB 60...this is an interesting link.

Here is a clear point of view about the new GB 60. Pro & cons after a 2000 nm experience on a GB 60.

 

Those pages are very instructive (Page 16 in particular). It shows how people have lived their experience, reacting to specific events, providing advices for improvement. Then you agree or don't, but at least it is not like in any sail magazines where you can read that every trial is nice and beautiful.

It opens discussion on several interesting points:
  • Centerboard or daggerboard?
  • in 2013, old good diesel or brand new hybrid power pack?
  • Indoor helm station or standard cockpit?
  • Carbon or not carbon on cruising cat?
