Qué cubre este vídeo
The 35-foot Hallberg-Rassy sailboat *Santana* offers a specific set of trade-offs for full-time liveaboard cruising.0:40 Pros include a full-length keel that provides directional stability and structural protection, a deep center cockpit that offers high-sided protection from spray and wind, and a 45% ballast-to-displacement ratio that contributes to overall stability.14:12 The boat’s shallow draft allows for anchoring in tight or shallow areas, though it results in a small rudder that makes low-speed maneuvering in tight ports difficult.7:39 Significant drawbacks include the lack of an electrical windlass, which complicates single-handed anchoring in harsh conditions, and the absence of a solid railing, which limits security when moving on deck.11:46 The interior layout features a side-galley and a small salon, which the owners find cramped for two people and two dogs.5:17 Technical specifications for the 1978 vessel include a sail area-to-displacement ratio of 15 and a displacement-to-length ratio of 257.20:36
