Hva denne videoen dekker
The Ta Shing-built Tashiba 40, designed by Bob Perry, serves as a heavy-displacement, full-keel blue water cruiser intended for long-range, self-sufficient ocean passages.0:14 With a 30,000-pound displacement and a 1.67 Capsize Screening Formula, the vessel prioritizes offshore safety and directional stability over light-air performance or maneuverability.4:09 Construction features hand-laid fiberglass, deep bulwarks, and robust deck hardware, though the traditional teak decks require significant maintenance.2:07 The interior offers generous 6-foot-4-inch headroom and high-quality joinery, typically configured with a V-berth, U-shaped saloon, and a quarter berth.4:45 While the canoe stern provides excellent protection in following seas, it limits the installation of large solar arches or dinghy davits compared to modern, wide-transom designs.6:15 Most models feature Yanmar or Universal diesel engines, with tankage capacities of 100 gallons of fuel and up to 200 gallons of water.5:51 Current market prices for these late 1980s and early 1990s cruisers range from $100,000 to $180,000, depending on the condition of aging systems and previous refits.7:12
