O que este vídeo aborda
Walter Schulls founded Shannon Yachts in 1975 in Rhode Island with the objective of building durable, high-quality offshore cruising vessels.1:04 The company’s first model, the Shannon 38, featured a full keel, keel-hung rudder, and a true cutter rig, with options for a centerboard or pilothouse.1:48 Three years later, the company introduced the Shannon 28, which gained notoriety when Monk Furnham completed two single-handed Atlantic crossings in the boat at ages 72 and 76.2:20 The 28-footer utilizes a modified full keel with a skeg-mounted rudder for improved maneuverability.2:48 Shannon construction techniques include internally flanged, through-bolted hull-to-deck joints and extensive tabbing along the entire seam where bulkheads meet the hull.4:17 Maintenance-focused design choices include three removable, independent freshwater tanks rather than integrated structures.4:10 Current market prices for used Shannon 28s range from $50,000 to $100,000, while larger models like the 43 and 55 command significantly higher prices.5:10 These vessels prioritize traditional, heavy-displacement offshore capability over modern features like twin helms or fold-down transoms.6:39
