Offshore Cruising Boat, Paradisea, Ep. 3

In this video, we continue the tour of Paradisea, a great offshore cruising boat, looking at the interior of this classically-designed Island Packet 40. Every boat has challenges and each cruiser must evaluate what’s best for them. For example, Is air conditioning a necessity? or How do guests fit aboard? Listen to sailors Maureen and Bob discuss the organization of small spaces and the recent additions they’ve made. While Bob talks about engine maintenance on his Yanmar 50HP, Maureen shows off her collection of Chachkies from their travels. As you will see, their offshore cruising boat, Paradisea, is their home on water.
