Circumnavigation means to successfully navigate around any sort of landmasses such as an island or continent. Whilst in yesteryear we would have relied on compasses, maps, stars and uncomfortable conditions, now sailboats are fitted with a vast array of equipment to help you circumnavigate anywhere you choose in a comfortable and timely manner.

It would seem reasonable to suggest that a small and lightweight boat wouldn't have the capability to circumnavigate effectively, but this is no longer the case. Due to the developments in the understanding of technology and materials over the last 20 years or so, mass produced boats are more than capable of surviving any conditions providing the crew are prepared properly. With the improvements in engineering especially, long gone are the days where slow, bulky, and claustrophobic cruisers were your only option. You can travel in style!

Ultimately, this article is going to answer the question: what are the best sailboats for circumnavigation? There are a few major things that you need to consider. Principle amongst them are the facilities on board the sailboat, the ease of use, how the deck and cabins are organized, the space available and finally the performance of the vessel overall. Take your time and think carefully about it.

10 Best Sailboats for Circumnavigation

1. jeanneau sun odyssey 54ds.

Starting off our list with one of the strongest contenders, the Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 54DS certainly ticks the luxury box. What's impressive is just how visually striking and spacious the 54DS is. It has big, swooping curves that give this sailboat a really distinctive shape. When this line of boat made its debut in 2003, the superstructure was considered to be one of the very best in the world and it still ranks highly today. Not only this, but the interior is designed to be luxurious and you have a surprising amount of space available in the cabin.

There's more to this boat than the looks though. The build quality on the whole is absolutely fantastic and it's quite powerful too. Many previous owners have attributed the high standard build quality, powerful performance and the excellent superstructure to the predictable and reliable performance. This is ideal for circumnavigation as you want a boat that is going to perform predictably and not throw you any major surprises!

A few other notable features on the 54DS are deep-draft keel and a standard in-mast furling mainsail. It also comes with an optional full battened main. All of these features are considered to be standard equipment for long distance cruisers.

All the high-quality features come at an expensive price. The price is certainly above average for a sailboat like this and you could make do with something a little less advanced but it's important to remember that the price is balanced out by the quality of the interior and stunning shape. Certainly some food for thought.

2. Amel Super Maramu

A highly regarded design by the Frenchman Henri Amel, this sailboat was his idea of what a high-performance circumnavigating sailboat should look like. The main point of the design was to encourage as much performance out of the boat as possible in deeper waters. This means less luxury, and more functionality. Oh, and not to mention that is undeniably French, so bear that in mind.

The boat itself looks like a traditional circumnavigating sailor, but it's got a lot of modern features to offer. The ship itself is designed to be operated by a small crew of two people. Everything is about efficiency. For example, the ketch rig is designed to be simple yet highly effective. Even the sails are electrically controlled! This means that the boat is really easy to use and manageable. It's recommended that for sailors who have a couple of years' experience because a few components can be a little bit complicated to do.

One thing that you might want to consider is that the Super Maramu isn't designed to be customised. Coming in at 53 feet long, it simply wouldn't be worth the effort to make any exterior modifications. It's a similar story for the interior as well. All the interior is functional so if you are looking for a more luxurious circumnavigator, then this wouldn't be a good option.

3. Hallberg-Rassy 42 and 42F

The Hallberg-Rassy range is known for their toughness and almost mythical build quality. The design is ruthlessly efficient, seen as there is absolutely no wasted space at all. This means that everything is focused on functionality, but this comes at the expense of it being a little bit less comfortable. The relatively simple exterior design is fitting in terms of the overall theme of the boat, simplicity and efficiency.

The layout below decks is also designed to be as efficient and user friendly as possible. This means that the boat is easy to use as well as the interior having a surprisingly fantastic finish to it. The design adds a lot of value to this boat because the ease of use and quality mean it's a fantastic place to be. Of course, this is depending on the amount of time you're going to spend circumnavigating but for a long trip, this is wonderful.

A word on the performance. It is very good too. It wouldn't be considered one of the best performing boats on this list but it's certainly more than good enough to get you where you need to go.

4. Hylas 54

The German Frers design can be seen again in the Hylas 54 but it's no surprise considering how good the design actually is. The Hylas 54 is designed to be a good balance between performance and efficiency.

The hull is built to an extremely high standard and the boat can also be driven very easily. In fact, its so easy to sail that achieving over 200-miles per day isn't too much of a struggle. On the deck, the design is compact and efficient which is perfect if you're an experienced sailor.

Another strong feature of the Hylas 54 is that there's a great amount of space and degree of flexibility below decks. You are free to choose how you want the layout to look as well as the quality of the finish. It even has a raised saloon version of which further adds to the flexibility and space available.

Owners are generally positive about this modal as well as the newer model, the Hylas 56. One of the biggest advantages is that it's really easy to handle. This would make a great, all round option for circumnavigating where you have the freedom to make it feel like home!

5. Beneteau 57

This is possibly one of the best, high-end options on the market currently! The Beneteau 57 is designed to be as stylish and reliable as possible. It would be fair to categorise it as a luxury cruiser that's for sure!

The hull is designed to be as fast and as sleek as possible. Paired with the stunning hull, the cockpit is placed as central as possible to maximise the amount of space available on the deck as well as keeping everything as neat and organised below decks.

The facilities below decks don't suffer either. All the systems have a fantastic finish to them and on the whole are very impressive. There is a fairly reasonable amount of space considering that the length of the boat is over 50 feet long.

It's fair to say that if you want to enjoy your tip but do it in luxury, then the Beneteau 57 is an absolutely fantastic option. The biggest benefit is that the price is extremely competitive considering the build-quality and luxurious feel you pay for.

6. Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 49

A rather surprising selection on the list! The Jeanneau Sun Odyssey isn't actually designed for circumnavigation by the charter market. However, due to its size and adaptability, it works extremely well as a circumnavigator.

Featuring a large cockpit, easy to maintain sailplan and a wonderful all-round performance, this really is a boat that can do pretty much anything you ask of it. A unique feature that this boat has is that it has a dedicated sail lock in the bow of the ship which is ideal for adjusting the height of the sail.

Below decks, you'll find a boat that has a variety of options for you. The cabin is designed to be twin aft but, if you remove the bulkhead, you can change the space into a massive single cabin. Below decks also feature a large navigation station which is a cool feature. The finish of the interior is also completed to a high standard which means that it's a comfortable and relaxing place to be!

7. Lagoon 440

This is a sailboat that has a lot of accolades. More lagoons have crossed the Atlantic. This is due to the Atlantic Rally for Cruisers. In regards to the 440 modal in particular, they have taken part in the Atlantic Rally more often than any other lagoon. So, what does all this mean? Well, the Lagoon 440 is designed to be a quality cruiser that's incredibly reliable and safe.

On the deck, there is an awful lot of room. You have a saloon, a big cockpit, a wide trampoline forward and the flybridge. This means that there's plenty of space to socialise with your other crew members or in the harbour. It also means that you have enough space for some privacy too which is fantastic depending on how much time you're going to spend on the boat.

Below decks, it's very much the same story. The interior is polished and refined as well as having an enormous amount of space. This is absolutely ideal for having a large crew and enjoying your journey!

One final thing to highlight is the performance of the boat itself. It certainly isn't the fastest, but the boat will certainly get you anywhere in a good amount of time.

8. Beneteau Oceanis 473

The Beneteau Oceanis 473 is an extremely popular sailboat for circumnavigation. The design was actually meant for the charter market but because of the vast size, comfortable features and the fact its relatively affordable, it became a target for cruisers looking for a bargain.

There hasn't been a lot of modifications for circumnavigation, but the boat is good at handling heavy weather and performs in a stable and predictable manner. This means that it's incredibly easy to control and perfect for a long-distance cruise.

The interior is a little bit funky too! There are a few different cabin styles but the most popular one is the three-cabin version. The rooms are big enough, but they aren't ideal to use on the sea because some of the room is wasted. However, it is excellent for harbour parties.

9. Bavaria 42

The Bavaria 42 is the most popular mass-produced boat to cross oceans. The sailboat is designed to be a no-nonsense, affordable, and adaptable cruiser. It's also well engineered for the price.

On the deck, a long waterline and fairly good sail area provide a good amount of performance. It is very heavy though when the cruising essentials are stored on board. It's important to bear this in mind. The cockpit is also positioned to be as central as possible to open up more space.

Below decks, the interior is straightforward and functional. There are two to three sleeping cabins depending on what model you choose. The sleeping cabins are generally considered to be functional at best.

It's the standard, go to a cruiser for circumnavigation. This should be the sailboat that you compare everything to!

10. Oyster 56

I've saved possibly the best option for last. The Oyster 56 is highly regarded and considered to be a dream boat for most. The biggest advantage of the Oyster 56 is the fact that it's so flexible and simple to use but the standard of the instruments and interior is absolutely stunning.

There isn't too much else to say because everything is built to an unbelievably high standard. The deck is designed to be small enough to be crewed by two people, but it's sufficiently big enough to cross vast distances quickly and in immense comfort. The systems can be crewed by up to six people, with the ideal number being from two-four.

It's the exact situation below decks as well. A lavish interior is designed to relax you in comfort. There's a lot of space so it feels more like home rather than a boat. Everything you could want is available. The 56 is absolutely fantastic for long distance cruising.

A final thing to mention is that the Oyster 56 wins pretty much anything it competes in. You certainly are buying a quality boat!

Ultimately, the choice of the best sailboat for navigation depends on what experience you are looking for. It's fair to say that each sailboat has their own positives and negatives. You might want to relax in comfort and luxury, or you might want to have a more authentic, manual experience. The important things to consider are the space available below decks, the size of the boat and how easy it is to use and whether the boat meets your needs.

However, if I was to make a recommendation, I would suggest the Beneteau 57. Even though it is one of the most expensive sailboats on the list, it offers a wide variety of applications, excellent build quality and luxury interior makes this an amazing boat to travel in. If you want to travel in style, then this certainly is the boat for you! This is an excellent boat for larger crews, especially six and up.

If the Beneteau 57 isn't your cup of tea, then another excellent recommendation would be the Bavaria 42. This is an excellent option due to the outstanding build quality, quality engineering and functionality. It's perfect for small crew that like to have a functional and minimalist experience but really connect with the sea and the natural surroundings. Just bear in mind that it is a lot smaller than the majority of the sailboats on the list so don't expect to have the same luxurious experience you might have with some others.

Hopefully, you've found the perfect sailboat for you or if not, you've got some inspiration! The main thing is that the boat should add to the enjoyment and experience of the journey, not detract from it. No matter what boat you choose, make sure you enjoy it!

Happy sailing!

I have a 33.5 1989. Is my 33' Hunter strong enough to do a circumnavigation?

Warren Milberg

If you don't know, you aren't "strong" enough.

Definitely more of a coastal boat. Enjoy what you have for now and try hard not to dream about what you want on your next boat - it will only distract you from enjoying this one. When the time comes to head to far off lands, buy another boat more made for that purpose - All boats are compromises and your "needs" change - Hopefully your needs for the next few years are coastal cruising and you are golden. No matter how much you think this is THE last boat, it won't be (been there, done that). Just maintain her well so you enjoy using her now and so she will sell fast when the time comes.

We have a couple in my small yacht club that took a standard Catalina 34 and went three quarters of the way around the world. They got bored with cursing and sold the boat in Turkey and then flew home. They gave us a slide show showing parts of the cruise and I was interested to see the number of small boats that I think this list would say was not a blue water boat. I agree with Roger--it is not the boat, are you ready to cross some water? Just as a tag about this couple, she didn't know how to sail when they started out. Good luck

In the 70's an 18 year old boy from Calif sailed a production flush deck Cal 25 and made it all the way around, but it's not something I would try. Rigging to light, and you invite a quick end, he lost his mast twice as I recall. He did make it. Lucky boy, but luck isn't what a wise Captain counts on, its just a bonus. Fair winds

Circumnavigation of what? Some offshore island 20 nm away; sure. Anything farther away, no.

Its all about the preparation. There are loads of "coastal cruiser" Catalina/Hunters/Beneteaus that I can think of that have completed circumnavigations, or are on their way to completion. But Roger is correct, its more about you than the boat, although the right boat goes a long way (no pun intended). By the time you make the necessary improvements to your boat it might bring you closer to the cost of a different boat. It also depends on your route, times of year. How long you plan to take. If you are just taking it slowly, and can plan stops along the way, and wait for better weather windows, sure. I don't think that Laura Dekker's Jenneau Gin Fizz is any more a blue water boat than your Hunter, and she made it by taking "short" hops from one port to another, and not around Cape horn. Abby Sutherland's Open 40 was a blue water boat, and didn't make it. And Jessica Watson's S&S wouldn't make most lists of a blue water boat either (it would mine), but it was highly modified also. Good luck.

Generally speaking it is not the capabilities of the boat but the capabilities of the captain and crew that determine if they can make it around the world. With that said the smaller the boat you have the smarter and more innovative (aka costs a lot) you need to be. Example: How do you carry enough water to stay at sea for over a month on that longest leg of the passage? The simple fact is you can't on a small boat with a 50 gal tank. You can catch rain but that involves taking some risk, what is it does not rain? You can invest in a water maker though which solves the problem right up to the point where you run some oily water through your last membrane and it stops working......there are lots of examples and the smaller the boat them more of them there are. So start a "my perfect boat will have...." list and keep in close at hand so you can jot down those things you would like to have as you think of them. Also start measuring how much stuff you use, water, food stuffs, fuel, propane...... so you can make some informed decisions as to if the next "perfect" boat can do what you want without a lot of innovation on your part.

I know if we were to try it (our boat is basically the same size), I have no doubt we could pack enough rice and beans on board so that we wouldn't go hungry, and a half dozen of those five gallon water cooler bottles stashed in the head would give us an emergency backup water supply that would keep us alive for a week or two if the tanks ran dry, and jerry cans of fuel lashed to the lifelines would give us the necessary range, but there's no way we could make it on those little tiny propane bottles our boat uses. So we'd either be looking at cold food and cold water bathing, or else we'd have to rig up some form of additional propane supply.

The roll acceleration: What´s the best for crossing oceans?

Discussion in ' Stability ' started by Antonio Alcalá , Dec 18, 2007 .

Antonio Alcalá Ocean Yachtmaster

Ancients models have a low roll acceleration ( <0.06) and newest racing models don´t have a pretty number ( Between 0.1-0.2). Better a seasickness and be faster or better a great stomach and be slower? Comments guys? Best winds

Fanie Fanie

A sea sick MD !! Te-he... doc, I thought you would have a cure for that The low roll accelleration may be due to very heavy ancient boats. Newer technology boats are much lighter and should respond faster. As far as I know any boat becomes more unpleasant to be aboard the faster it goes, it becomes worse if the water becomes unfriendly. The only way to travel on water is to adjust speed to where it becomes comfortable or bearable enough for the conditions. I have never been seasick, on many boats (power) However I was on a 'houseboat' once and this thing didn't move right on the water. Didn't get seasick but felt very uncomfortable. So I guess the boat's sensitivity of movement could also play a role.

The cure is staying onshore, but it´s rather bored Fanie. Best winds

It's the period of the acceleration that matters as much or more than the amplitude. The human body is most sensitive, in terms of motion sickness incidence at around 10-second periods (0.1 Hz) ..and virtually insensitive at periods of 1-sec or thereabouts. O'Hanlon and McCauley's MSI curves define the sensitivity over the whole range. I've seen where a huge number of passengers got sick on a wavepiercing cat traveling at 40 knots with 'only' 0.08 gRMS acceleration (but at around 8 second period) and virtually none sick on a bouncy SES traveling the same speed but experiencing 0.16 gRMS, where the motion period is less than 1 second (>1 Hz)

I think stayong on shore is the ailment, I get sick if I stay off the water for too long... Was on the water a while back... was enjoying it so much I almost forgot to fish Forced myself Ok, so to prevent seasickness to some extent one can then also change direction (or speed) since at a given speed, upwind and downwind should provide different frequencies.

Antonio, There is one only know sure cure for seasickness.... Cling to a gum tree.

Congratulations, I´ve never seen this "paper" ( the way we talk about science articles). From now on, i´ll be waiting much more information about the influence of the acceleration on the human body . This kind of contents might be really interesting to the people. Click to expand...

Motion Comfort Ratio was developed by Boat Designer Ted Brewer. The formula predicts the speed of the upward and downward motion of the boat as it encounters waves and swells. The faster the motion the more uncomfortable the passengers. Thus, the formula predicts the overall comfort of a boat when it is underway. Higher values denote a more comfortable ride. As the Displacement increases the motion comfort ratio will increase. As the length and beam increases the motion comfort ratio will decrease. MCR = Disp / (2/3*((7/10 * LWL)+(1/3 *LOA))*Beam4/3 ) So, as you can see below of my comment you have some types of sailboats and their motion comfort ratio after the application of that formula: Alberg 35 Sloop, Motion Comfort=36.48 Alberg 37, Motion Comfort=39.3 Allied Mistress 39, Motion Comfort=35.62 Allied Seawind, Motion Comfort=39.69 Allied Seawind II, Motion Comfort=36.89 Alpa A42 (S&S), Motion Comfort=44.85 Alpa A42 (S&S) Half-loaded, Motion Comfort=51.22 Amel Maramu, Motion Comfort=36.05 Amphitrite 43, Motion Comfort=37.67 Amphitrite MS45, Motion Comfort=40.15 Antigua, Motion Comfort=44.99 Baba 35, Motion Comfort=41.94 Bayfield 40, Motion Comfort=35.26 Bolger Ataraxia, Motion Comfort=36.21 Bolger Barnowl, Motion Comfort=37.85 Bolger Leeboard Catboat, Motion Comfort=38.08 Bolger Schuyt Houseboat, Motion Comfort=35.83 Brewer Orca, Motion Comfort=45.23 Brewer Sandingo, Motion Comfort=35.5 Brewer Sunshine, Motion Comfort=46.05 Brewer Thursday's Child, Motion Comfort=44.32 Bristol 35.5, Motion Comfort=35.23 Bristol 40, Motion Comfort=36.57 Bristol 41.1, Motion Comfort=37.85 Bristol 45.5, Motion Comfort=42.97 Bristol Channel Cutter, Motion Comfort=36.89 Brolga 33, Motion Comfort=37.36 Buehler Archimedes, Motion Comfort=52.8 Buehler Dragonfly 50, Motion Comfort=48.88 Buehler Emily, Motion Comfort=37.55 Buehler Juna, Motion Comfort=45.93 Buginese Schooner, Motion Comfort=43.95 CSY 37, Motion Comfort=35.57 CSY 44, Motion Comfort=46.66 CSY 44 Pilothouse Ketch, Motion Comfort=47.94 CT 34, Motion Comfort=37.68 CT 54, Motion Comfort=51.36 CT50, Motion Comfort=50.7 Cabo Rico 37, Motion Comfort=36.61 Cabo Rico 38, Motion Comfort=38.96 Cabo Rico 42, Motion Comfort=36.77 Cabo Rico Tiburon 36, Motion Comfort=39.23 Cal 2-46, Motion Comfort=39.72 Cal 48, Motion Comfort=36.06 Caliber 47LRC, Motion Comfort=38.51 Cambria 44, Motion Comfort=35.56 Camper Nicholson 32, Motion Comfort=43.52 Cape Dory 36, Motion Comfort=35.5 Cape George 31, Motion Comfort=42.16 Cape George 34, Motion Comfort=44.69 Cape George 36, Motion Comfort=47.54 Chatam 330, Motion Comfort=41.76 Cheoy Lee Clipper 36, Motion Comfort=37.41 Cheoy Lee Clipper 42, Motion Comfort=38.59 Cheoy Lee Offshore 31, Motion Comfort=35.45 Cheoy Lee Offshore 50, Motion Comfort=43.51 Cheoy Lee Robb 35 Yawl, Motion Comfort=37.77 Cherubini 44, Motion Comfort=42.05 Cherubini 48, Motion Comfort=41 Chris Craft Sail Yacht 35, Motion Comfort=37.32 Colin Archer 37 Pilot Cutter, Motion Comfort=54.67 Columbia 38, Motion Comfort=35.01 Columbia 40, Motion Comfort=38.29 Columbia 41 Shoal Sloop, Motion Comfort=38.21 Columbia 45, Motion Comfort=40.32 Columbia 45 Sloop, Motion Comfort=35.82 Columbia 50 (Tripp), Motion Comfort=46.64 Columbia 56, Motion Comfort=49.97 Columbia 56 MS, Motion Comfort=49.97 Columbia 57, Motion Comfort=49.77 Colvin Saugeen Witch, Motion Comfort=35.29 Concordia Yawl, Motion Comfort=38.99 Corbin 39, Motion Comfort=42.7 Cornish Crabber Pilot 30, Motion Comfort=35.37 Coronado 35 Ketch (SK), Motion Comfort=36.01 Coronado 35 Sloop (SK), Motion Comfort=36.01 Coronado 41, Motion Comfort=37.95 Creala 40, Motion Comfort=39.34 Crealock 40, Motion Comfort=37.23 Crealock 40 Twin Stay, Motion Comfort=39.34 Dickerson 41, Motion Comfort=37.83 Dix Hout Bay 30, Motion Comfort=37.3 Downeast 45 Ketch, Motion Comfort=45.4 Dreadnought 32, Motion Comfort=47.49 Duncanson 29, Motion Comfort=39.9 Duncanson 40, Motion Comfort=43.71 Endeavor 37, Motion Comfort=38.19 Endeavour 40 Sloop, Motion Comfort=36.59 Endeavour 43 Ketch, Motion Comfort=39.54 Ericson 39, Motion Comfort=35.25 Ericson 41, Motion Comfort=35.57 FISHER 30, Motion Comfort=41.43 Fantasia 35 MK II, Motion Comfort=50.99 Fast Passage 39, Motion Comfort=38.72 Folkes 39 Cutter (Steel), Motion Comfort=41.86 Formosa 46, Motion Comfort=37.8 Formosa 51, Motion Comfort=53.28 Freedom 45, Motion Comfort=35.18 Fuji 32 Ketch, Motion Comfort=35.73 Fuji 35, Motion Comfort=40.74 Fuji Ketch 45, Motion Comfort=43.45 Gail Storm (Exp.

Hey Antonio! You have done a hell of a job! Well done! Motion Comfort Ratio provides a good clue to a boat's seakindliness, in addition to the roll acceleration parameter, usually calculated as: (6.28/T)^2*radius*(10*Pi/180)/32.2 being T the rolling period and 'radius' the radius of inerta. There are approximate formulas to estimate those also, as you probably already know. Motion Comfort Ratio is only a clue, not an absolute true, but anyhow it indicates what you can expect from a boat. As Ted Brewer puts it: "Do consider, though, that a sailing yacht heeled by a good breeze will have a much steadier motion than one bobbing up and down in light airs on left over swells from yesterday's blow; also that the typical summertime coastal cruiser will rarely encounter the wind and seas that an ocean going yacht will meet. Nor will one human stomach keep down what another stomach will handle with relish, or with mustard and pickles for that matter! It is all relative." There is also an study on the effects of acceleration aboard on human performance, done by the US Navy (or was it the Coast Guard?), but I don't have it here now. I'll check tonight and post the curves. Is it correct such a low MCR for the Transpac 52? Cheers.

I think a lot depends on ones state of mind. Some people are seasick before they board... like some people itch from working with glass before they even touch the stuff...

‍ 8 Best Sailboats for Circumnavigating the World

Here are eight of the finest sailboats for travelling around the world:

1. Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 54DS

Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 54DS is easily one of the finest and luxurious sailboats for circumnavigation. It’s a spacious and visually stunning vessel with large, swooping curves that give it its unique shape. When this sailboat debuted in 2003, its superstructure, with its quality desk hardware, was instantly recognized as one of the finest in the world, and that remains true today as well. Plus, the interior of the boat is designed with elegance in mind.

Moreover, this sailboat has a premium-quality, powerful build, which ensures that the Odyssey 54DS delivers top-quality, smooth performance, allowing you to travel in it around the world with ease. The 54DS has many notable features, including its standard in-mast furling mainsail and deep-draft keel. The vessel also comes with an optional full battened main.

The sailboat has a fancy leather-bound wheel that works smoothly and five to ten luxurious berths. It features a harbor cachet that is more or less the same size as the cachet of a custom yacht. All of its distinctive and contemporary features are designed to offer maximum comfort and a smooth sailing experience to long-distance travelers.

Planning a Circumnavigation

THIS POST MAY CONTAIN AFFILIATE LINKS. PLEASE READ OUR DISCLOSURE FOR MORE INFO.

Last Updated on September 13, 2023 by Amy

Plotting world circumnavigation routes is a lot easier than it sounds. There are cruising boats LITERALLY all over the world. There are boats in the Northwest passage (up and over Canada), in the Antarctic, and everywhere in between. There are a few key things to take into consideration, but 95%* of circumnavigation routes follow the same general course.

Table of Contents - Click to Jump

Insurance Restrictions on Circumnavigation Routes

There are two major restrictions put on us by our vessel insurance; stay out of highly pirated areas and stay out of named storm zones. Insurance restrictions come with the option to ignore them. You can always go to these restricted places, BUT if something happens, your insurance will not be covered. Another option is that you can pay significantly more to be covered in these places as well. We have made the choice for ourselves to follow the restrictions set by our insurance.

By definition, piracy is the act of attacking and robbing ships at sea. By that main definition, the Caribbean is one of the worst places for piracy. Petty theft of boats and their tenders is a major issue in some parts of the Caribbean, and steps should be taken to protect yourself and your assets.

However, the piracy of the biggest concern is murder and kidnapping. There are two main hotspots where our insurance will not cover us; the Philippines and the Red Sea/Suez Canal (hereby referred to as simply Suez). Again, people cruise literally everywhere in the world, and there are people who cruise the Philippines (2015 reports state 200 yachts). The other side of the coin is true too. Just because you avoid the Suez or the Philippines does not mean you will avoid being kidnapped or murdered.

It’s up to you to decide the level of risk you are willing to take when planning out a circumnavigation route.

Tropical Storms

In North America, it’s a hurricane. South of the equator, it’s cyclones. In Asia-Pacific, it’s typhoons. Either way, your insurance probably has a word or two to say about where you spend tropical storm season.

Our insurance requires us to avoid certain parts of the world during storm seasons. This is why there is a mass exodus of boats from the Caribbean every year. Our insurance requires us to be north of roughly the Florida-Georgia line. Now, that doesn’t mean we are safe from hurricanes, but it does mean if something happens, we will have the privilege of consoling ourselves of our losses by applying for an insurance claim.

For those moving quickly, your primary concern is systems in the southern hemisphere. Just make sure you are moving from east to west quickly enough to pass through the storm zone.

World circumnavigation routes, like ours, usually have you dipping out of these storm zones for the season. It’s a great time to haul your boat out for annual maintenance, like we did in New Zealand, Australia, and Thailand.

Tradewinds for Circumnavigating

Around the equator lies the doldrums. This is typically an area with very little wind. However, each ocean has a wind pattern. In the northern hemisphere, winds circulate clockwise. In the southern hemisphere, winds circulate counterclockwise. This means that on either side of the equator lies a band of wind flowing from east to west. This is why 95%* of cruisers plan their circumnavigation routes to sail from east to west.

Factoring the Wind into Outfitting Your Boat

Knowing where you will sail will help you determine what kind of sail performance you are looking for in a boat. For someone doing a typical circumnavigation route, sailing east to west, you’ll be sailing downwind a lot. Some monohull owners have complained to us about how uncomfortable their boat is sailing dead downwind. Catamarans, however, typically perform best downwind. We have a very smooth ride when we are traveling with the wind and waves.

Outfitting your sail locker also factors in where you are sailing. For a downwind circumnavigation, spinnakers are highly useful – or so we hear. We’ve not had terrible success with our spinnaker, but find our screecher to be very useful. That could possibly be because we deviate enough from the standard downwind route.

For more about sail configurations in a cruising catamaran, read our Sail Trim blog post.

Those Who Sail West to East Circumnavigation Routes

There are a few who do sail the “wrong way”. It can definitely be done and done fast. However, you need to have a boat that sails well to wind. While most catamarans sail well downwind, we do not sail well into the wind. However, if your catamaran has daggerboards, you’ll sail much better to wind than a catamaran without daggerboards.

Circumnavigation Routes & Bottlenecks

This is why most circumnavigations follow the same basic route. There are major bottlenecks to passing around the continents, so again, we’ve got the 95%* of boats funneling into one narrow part of the world.

Panama Canal

We paid $1300 to transit the Panama Canal because the only other option is to sail against the wind and waves around either North America or South America. Taking one of the high latitudes routes is pretty dang extreme, takes a significant amount of time, and a toll on ship and crew. Ushuaia, a port of call in Argentina, reported 64 boats in 2015, versus 1,079 boats transiting the canal – 95% transiting the canal*.

Torres Strait

The Torres Strait occupies the space between Australia and New Guinea. It’s fairly small, just 650 nm between Thursday Island and Indonesia’s first port of clearance.

There are some cruisers (like our friends on S/V Field Trip) who are going over the top of New Guinea to get to Southeast Asia. Getting any further north than that requires dealing with the Philippines – either through or around the top of the Philippines into the South China Sea.

Cape of Good Hope

Traveling around South Africa requires tackling the Cape of Good Hope, which is not to be taken lightly due to the challenges in the winds and currents. The alternative is the Suez. There used to be a rally passing through the Suez. The other alternative is to hire private security, but that’s pretty complex. Reports show 358 boats sailing through Cape Town verses 19 through the Suez – again, 95% choose Cape Town*. I know the Mediterranean is a great cruising ground, but we decided if we want to cruise it, we’d rather cross the Atlantic twice than go through the Suez.

How Long Should a Circumnavigation Take?

Barring racing yachts who are smashing world records, it’s not uncommon to complete a circumnavigation in a year and a half. This is a fairly straightforward and quick route.

The World ARC is a one and a half year rally that circumnavigates the world. They have a fantastic route and schedule on their website.

Longer circumnavigation routes still use the same general track, but add on detours. For example, we extended our South Pacific portion into two seasons by sailing south to spend cyclone season in New Zealand.

We’ve met sailors who have taken 15 or more years to circumnavigate. That’s a lot of detours!

Our Circumnavigation Route

Our sailing circumnavigation route took us four years and three months to travel all the way around the world. You can read the summary of our world circumnavigation for more details.

Book: World Cruising Routes

This is LITERALLY the bible of sailing around the world. If you have ever asked yourself (or, god help you, asked on a forum) “I wonder when the best time to sail from X to Y is?” the answer is in this book.

Even though we know our route, I’m still pulling out this book every so often to look up possibilities. It’s a great guide to planning your circumnavigation route overall and planning each individual passage.

Buy Jimmy Cornell’s World Cruising Routes .

Book: Cornell’s Ocean Atlas

This handy reference book is full of windgrams – “a summary of wind direction and strength derived from the individual windroses along a specific ocean route “. Basically this means you can open a chart for a particular region and month and you will be able to tell where the wind “usually” blows from.

Book Review: How to Sail Around the World Part-Time

Who: Linus Wilson and his wife, Janna
Available: Kindle, Kindle Unlimited or Paperback
Published: January 2016
Editing (scale of 1-10, 10 is best): 10

Linus Wilson has been cruising part-time on his 31-foot Island Packet. This is his second book, and in it, he details how one could sail a circumnavigation part-time. I agree – it is possible and might be the solution more potential cruisers should consider.

Wilson pulls a lot of statistics about sailing. Did you know fewer people complete a sailing circumnavigation every year than climb Mount Everest? An hour spent above base camp on Mount Everest is 264 times more dangerous than an hour sailing?

One question unanswered is how long it would actually take to sail the world part-time. Of course, it depends on how much time you dedicate every year, but hypothetically:

Year 1: the Caribbean to Panama, store in Panama
Year 2: Panama to French Polynesia, store in FP
Year 3: French Polynesia to Fiji, store in Fiji
Year 4: Fiji to Australia, store in Australia
Year 5: Australia to South Africa, store in SA
Year 6: SA to the Caribbean

Of course, you’d see a lot less than you would on a 6-year circumnavigation like ours, but you get it done in a fraction of the cost and less risk.

Bottom line: it was a short, interesting, and informative read. If you don’t want to full-time sail, or can’t convince your partner to full-time sail, consider how fulfilling a part-time adventure could be.

Wonderful article. I am from Goa, India. I wish you had come to Goa. I would have happily looked after your boat, and you could have travelled through India and enjoyed its majestic and diverse cultures and sites. I am 67 years old grandfather. I have been coastal and competitive sailing for the past 50 years. I am now planning to go on a circumnavigation on a Leopard 39 sailboat starting from Goa. Hoping to do it in 2 to 3 years. Your article and videos have inspired me. All the best. Thank you for your well written and detailed articles.

Wow, great to hear from you! It is amazing to us when we hear from people like you all over the world! We have some friends who visited Cochin last year on their boat, I think that’s a popular stop for cruisers. I know that formalities in India are complicated.

I have never been, but I love the food and the culture that I’ve experienced so far! I hope we get to visit someday.

Do sail down to Goa anytime you want. I will sort out all you entry formalities. Wish you all the best. Keep inspiring us with your wonderful sailing and videos.

Hi, how many miles is it when circumnavigating around the earth please? Captain cook did it in 60k, but is this because you cant just sail direct around the earth due to islands and storms etc?

Hi! Our circumnavigation was about 34,000 nm. You can read more about it here: https://outchasingstars.com/world-sailing-circumnavigation-summary/

Amy, when you and David are on a long passage, what kind of watch schedule do you keep? Assuming you’re both healthy (unlike your passage to St. Helena), what do you find to be a comfortable limit for the number of days at sea before exhaustion begins to set in?…or does it ever set in for you guys?

We do a soft 7-hour watch. The only actual watch is I do 7 pm to 2 am. Then David goes on watch while I sleep. When I wake up we switch, and he naps. Then when he’s up, I nap. By then it’s time to do the whole thing all over again! The worst night is the second. You’ve been tired, but not tired enough to sleep off your normal routine yet. But after the second night it gets a lot better. Exhaustion does not set in long-term – boredom does!

I really enjoyed reading your article, it’s very informative although that I don’t have a boat, it’s too expensive where I’m from, and it would take a fortune to be registered if it’s allowed in the first place, as authorities put a lot of restrictions for civil citizen to do so after military took over in 60s, for example we can’t camp as a first without a security permit bla bla bla that it raerly issued or thread fishing without a license and permit bla bla bla….etc, there isn’t a proper Marina for docking not even mention the amount of visas that it required. I love to sail one-day but till that time I’m really enjoy reading and watching. I’m from Egypt, and it makes me sad that sailors stop passing by, as we have a great shores, great diving spots, the Suez canal, and the right wind, but to be considered as unstable area for the Somalian pirates acts, and all the Egyptian governmental claims about fighting terrorist and repel ghost they imagine, this is horrible. It’s really tearing me that after around 8000 years on Earth people couldn’t yet handle their conflicts. I’m sorry to make it very long. Glad that some people had the privilege to try and be able to chasing stars and wind. Godspeed

Sarah, thank you for your comment! It’s amazing to us that we have someone reading from Egypt!

I recently read a memoir about a yacht who sailed through the Suez, and it sounded like they had a lot of difficulties, not just with pirates and corruption, but it’s hard sailing too! Egypt is very high up on my list of places I would truly love to visit because of its amazing history and culture.

We hope that somehow you get to enjoy sailing, even if it’s just continuing to follow us along.

You are amazing, all the best in your upcoming, and hopefully everyone can enjoy sailing in Egypt one day, and be able to see you here in the future.

Hi Amy, first, what a nice simple but very informative blog. I have run a ‘sailing for disabled people’ organisation for the last 25 years and as part of our 25th anniversary are planning to build a 20m cat for a round the world adventure. Planned for start in 2025 I need to get people to understand the real dangers and risks of such travel as well as the good things, would you mind if I used your blog in this matter, I would of course say that is yours. Details of us are under the ‘new projects button’ at http://www.disabledsailing.org

Hi Mike! You are welcome to link to our blog post. If you need anything beyond that, send us an email and we can talk more!

Excellent and informative article. I’d just like to point out the following statement where it states: “Ushuaia, a port of call in Chile, reported 64 boats in 2015….”

Please note that Ushuaia is not located in Chile, but rather within the Tierra del Fuego province of Argentina.

Thank you so much for the correction! I will fix it right away. Geography lesson of the day. 😉

Now you can completely delete my comment 🙂 It’s all sorted. Happy and safe sailing to you and your family. Antonella

Nice write up. Very helpful. Keep up the good work. However sailing through the suez is not really that dangerous. My friends Ingo and Maya sailed through from turkey to India and onward to thailand and had no probs with pirates.

I do hear that the piracy situation is improving. I do think there are a lot of good reasons to go around South Africa though, and I am glad we did.

Great informative article, thanks for sharing.

Where do you store your bladder when it is full? Also, thanks for all the info and videos. It has helped us a great deal in preparation for purchasing our boat,

Thank you! I’m glad you’ve found it helpful. We store the duel bladder in the cockpit.

On the longer passages, how much extra fuel do you carry in your blatter tank. What motering range do you think is sufficient for your longer passages?. I’m thinking the Helia goes about 750 miles on 125 gallons of diesel. Thanks Jon

Our fuel tank holds 125 gallons, plus four 5-gallon jerry cans, plus the 50-gallon fuel bladder, to total 195 gallons. If we motor at 1800 rpms with one engine it’s roughly .8 gph. Theoretically, our tanks should take us about 900 nm. Of course, we go months and thousands of miles without using all of our diesel.

Cal 35 vs Hunter 37

Add to quote

I am looking for a mid 30's cruiser, capable of going bluewater someday for under 40k. I know that Cal's have a great reputation for being well built boats, my best friend and his wife liveaboard a Cal 34 MKII and it has been a great boat for the money. I really like the layout of the early 80's Cal 35 MKII. However, I also have been looking at the Hunter 37 cutter. From spending countless hours reading posts to this sight I have seen a good deal of negative comments about Hunters. That being said I have also seen quite a few posts stating that an exception to the aformentioned Hunter opinions is the Cherubini designed Hunter 37 cutter. This boat will be a liveaboard in Seattle for me and my wife for a couple of years and then hopefully within the next decade we plan to do some bluewater cruising to the s. pacific and maybe a circumnavigation. I don't want to have to buy a different boat down the road to go bluewater so I am looking for a solid comfortable boat that could be outfitted to go crusing. I would really appreciate any constructive thoughts on these two boats, or if there is another boat that you think fits my needs, I would love to hear about that as well. Thanks for the input! Trevor

Neither of those boats is really a "bluewater boat" IMHO. Coastal crusing and bluewater voyaging are totally different things. Where are you planning on sailing to, from, cruising at?

We will be sailing in the San Juan Islands for the time being but eventually we would like to sail to the s. pacific, not ruling out a circumnavigation at some point in the distant future.

I'd be a bit hesitant to circumnavigate or do a South Pacific cruise in either of them. The Waquiez Gladiator, the Hallberg Rassy Mistral, the Hallberg Rassy 35, the Allied Seawind Princess 36, the Cape Dory 36, the Alberg 37, are all probably better choices. However, most bluewater capable boats are not going to be as comfortable as liveaboard boats, as the boats tend to be a bit narrower in beam, with less living space than a coastal cruiser of the same length. However, in a heavy sea, during a bluewater passage, the narrower confines will be far more welcome... as will the better placed and more common handholds. Here is a boats.com search I did that may interest you. I've run the search with a price ceiling of $50000, since it is very unlikely that you will pay the asking price, if you shop wisely. While, I would generally recommend leaving about 10-20% of the budget aside for refits, repairs, upgrades and modifications... as that is generally necessary, on almost any boat you will buy. However, since you are going to liveaboard for a few years, you can probably space those things out a bit.

SD gives good advice. I would add that living in Seattle gives you reasonable access to go see boats from Northern California straight up into the Queen Charlottes...and there are a LOT of decent bluewater boats in that area. I saw listings for several in Blaine when I was shopping for a steel 40 footer. Don't discount a metal boat, either, particularly for offshore. I find that most reasonably priced production boats, with a few exceptions like Caliber 40s, IPs, most Bob Perry designs and Pacific Seacrafts, aren't going to have the movement at sea to keep people happy and comfortable, particularly in a wild area like the North Pacific. Go to Ted Brewer's site. He lives in the area and has designed a lot of boats for it. His essays on ocean-going yacht design are very easy to follow, just like his articles in Good Old Boat. I've e-mailed him twice and he's very approachable with questions. Good luck.

I do like Pacific Seacraft's boats, but they tend to be fairly pricey...and not all that common on the market.. and generally sell pretty quickly when they do hit the sale listings.

Yes, Liz Clark, she's very cute... she does a fair bit of singlehanding on Swell, which is her boat's name.

Cal VS Hunter??? The brands are not in the same city let alone same ball park. The Cal designed by the late Bill Lapworth was a premier boat in its day. Very well built, very fine sailing and good comfort. They point real well and will make good time between point A & point B. Hunter is a high volume production boat. I have sailed on several hundreds of miles off shore. The boat did not sink and did real well going through an ocan inlet n a pretty major storm. A lot of the talk regarding "Blue Water" should be focused more on the qualifications and experience of the skipper and crew than the boat. Don't get me wrong, certain brands would fare out much better than others in the long run when the hull is subjected to an off- shore environment for the life span of the hull. Calowners still are very active and passonite about their boats. Browse the various Cal webs, talk to owners. Remember, these boats are no longer made. By the way owners talk about them, you would think that they are. When Cal (Jensen Marine) sold the brand to Banger Punta (Piper Aircraft), the construction moved to Fall River Mass in The O'Day facility as Banger Punta also owned O'Day. The boats were then designed by Raymond Hunt. The interiors were made lighter and more volumous. Realpretty and still real well built. The Hunt boats were still popular but didn't have that excitment that the Lapworth boats had. This might also have something to do with the famous Cal 40 which will still hold her own even in a more contemporary racing environment. You will enjoy the Hunter I assure you. It won't sink and is a good sailing vessel. To own a Cal is to own the experience of ownership, not just the boat.

Buy the Cal - it will hold its value better.

the cal 40 was liz sail on, Dave and Jaja spent seven years sailing around the world (1988-1995) aboard their 25-foot Cal 25 DIRECTION. here like the other poster side it's the person the sailing not the boats, how much you are welling to face the hardship,

Of course, by the time he got done rebuilding the Cal 25 it was *far* different from a stock Cal 25.

If you like the Cal 35, take a look at the Cal 33-2. A more modern design with similar room inside. The 35-2 and 33-2 rate similarly (approx 135-138 PHRF) so sailing speed is very close. Disclaimer: I own one.

I am looking at a cal 35-2 With whom can I discuss the sailing characteristics. Or where is the best web site for this particular cal?

I suggest that SailNet is a great place to get free advice on any boat. However, you should really start a new thread rather than hijaking an old one.

We Never Underestimate Your Dreams

Hunter 42 passage review: caribbean cruiser.

I met with clients who wanted to view a classic yacht that we had for sale. They told me, “We really like the Hunter 45, but our friends tell us these are not quality boats. They told us to look at older better built designs.” I could not help feeling that their friends might be leading them astray. I asked what kind of sailing they had planned. “We would like to cruise the Bahamas and Caribbean.” They were not interested in a serious offshore sailing. While the quality of Beneteau, Hunter, and Catalinas is lower than the designs their friends told them about, their goals seemed to fit with a Hunter if that was what they liked. As a Bahamas and Caribbean cruiser, you will not find many yachts that offer a more compelling value than a Hunter 42 Passage.

Hunter Marine has roots in the 1800’s when Henry Luhrs, a German immigrant to New Jersey, USA began outfitting trading ships and owned his own ship, the Sophia R. Luhrs. His grandson also named Henry built and repaired boats. In 1965, Henry sold this company called Henry Luhrs Sea Skiffs. In 1969, Henry’s sons, Warren and John, purchased a New Jersey builder called Silverton Sea Skiffs and started building yachts. In 1973, they introduced the first Hunter sailboat, a 25-footer designed by Cherubini. Today, Hunter builds boats from 24 to 50 feet in an Alachua, Florida factory just north of Gainesville, Florida. The location is far inland about the center of the state of Florida with a small pond. The 42 Passage is not longer in production. They produced her from 1990-1999.

First Impressions From the dark black, geometric portholes to the chubby swim platform, the 42 speaks of plastic. The cockpit arch rises up noticeably. If the toerail could be plastic, they would have done it. It is distinctive Hunter – the opposite of wood boats. Underneath, the balanced spade rudder and fin keel give her a fast shape. She comes in shoal versions.

Construction Hunter uses composite construction techniques. While other manufacturers seek for innovative style or skill, Hunter goes for innovative building. Molded liners stiffen the hull reducing costs while maintaining a level of integrity. The deck is secured from outside glued and bolted through. The hull topsides are balsa cored to reduce weight along with the balsa cored deck. The 42 Passage itself has a reputation within the brokerage world as being one of the best constructed Hunter.

What To Look For The charger leads and isolator wiring cannot handle many aftermarket electronics and must be replaced if not done already. A 1994 a fire illustrated this caveat and led to a Hunter recall. You should make sure the inverter has been replaced. On both the ones I recently previewed, the deck mast step leaked. On one, the broker told me about the problem and how the owner had fixed it. On the other, I happened to come by after a rainy day and water was dripping down the compression post. The floorboards had rotted around the post. The general Hunter issues exist with reports of broken tabbing, moving bulkheads, and hull flexing. A real question to consider is if you are comfortable with the perception of the Hunter brand. Some stuffy sailors will without thought disparage these yachts despite their advantages.

On Deck and Down Below The cockpit has a high helm. The stern aft is perfect for swimming and getting on and off from at the dock. The Bergstrom and Ridder rig has the diamond cross stays, swept spreaders, and no backstay. One 42 Passage owner mentioned how his rig failed off North Carolina. The shroud wire had pulled out of the swage on the tang side. He believed that the lack of a backstay made the failure more catastrophic. Forward, the windlass is inside the chainlocker hatch, a clever way to maximize deck space. This is an exceptionally functional deck plan. Down below showcases the strengths of Hunter. The interior layout with centerline queen aft and a saloon you could yoga in is what every cruiser lusts for.

Engine and Underway The light air performance is the key to the Hunters. The 42 is fast designed where you spend most of your cruising. One broker says, “I really like these. I have logged thousands of miles on them, and these are great boats. They sail fast.” They are functionally sound for island hopping and Bahamas gunkholing. The swept spreaders of the B&R rig on most limits the how far out you can sheet the main downwind without chaffing against the spreaders.

Conclusion The most important question may be your comfort with the Hunter perception. Problems happen when you ask a Hunter 42 to do more than she can. This can happen against your will of course. It is hard to find better values than the well-equipped Hunters with air conditioning, in-mast furling, and a generator. Two locally are asking around $100,000.

3 Replies to “Hunter 42 Passage Review: Caribbean Cruiser”

Have you actually seen a 42 Passage? They clearly have a back stay. Perhaps in your review you confused the 420 Passage with the design it replaced?

Agree with John, you talking about HP420 not 42. Please fix you review many people read and get confused…

This article is a combination of some very good information with some just plain incorrect. Very confusing. Some of the pictures, including the salon and layout shots, clearly show a Hunter Passage 420. This is a very different boat than the Hunter Passage 42. Some of the information like the absence of backstay, as John mentioned in his comment, is also referring to the P420. The P42 is a masthead sloop with a backstay and large foresail area while the P420 is a backstayless fractional sloop rig.

Passage 42: http://sailboatdata.com/viewrecord.asp?class_id=4886

Passage 420: http://sailboatdata.com/viewrecord.asp?class_id=4879

On another note, the shot in the upper left is just confusing. It appears to show some kind of intergenerational hybrid between the 42 and 420. The starboard fixed portlight arrangement doesn’t look like any 42 I’ve seen or 420 for that matter. I originally thought the picture had been reversed but the writing on the side would be backwards. So, I’m just confused by it. Maybe someone can clarify.

The Unique Burial of a Child of Early Scythian Time at the Cemetery of Saryg-Bulun (Tuva)

<< Previous page

Pages: 379-406

In 1988, the Tuvan Archaeological Expedition (led by M. E.вЂЇKilunovskaya and V. A.вЂЇSemenov) discovered a unique burial of the early Iron Age at Saryg-Bulun in Central Tuva. There are two burial mounds of the Aldy-Bel culture dated by 7th century BC. Within the barrows, which adjoined one another, forming a figure-of-eight, there were discovered 7 burials, from which a representative collection of artifacts was recovered. Burial 5 was the most unique, it was found in a coffin made of a larch trunk, with a tightly closed lid. Due to the preservative properties of larch and lack of air access, the coffin contained a well-preserved mummy of a child with an accompanying set of grave goods. The interred individual retained the skin on his face and had a leather headdress painted with red pigment and a coat, sewn from jerboa fur. The coat was belted with a leather belt with bronze ornaments and buckles. Besides that, a leather quiver with arrows with the shafts decorated with painted ornaments, fully preserved battle pick and a bow were buried in the coffin. Unexpectedly, the full-genomic analysis, showed that the individual was female. This fact opens a new aspect in the study of the social history of the Scythian society and perhaps brings us back to the myth of the Amazons, discussed by Herodotus. Of course, this discovery is unique in its preservation for the Scythian culture of Tuva and requires careful study and conservation.

Savvino-storozhevsky monastery and museum.

Zvenigorod's most famous sight is the Savvino-Storozhevsky Monastery, which was founded in 1398 by the monk Savva from the Troitse-Sergieva Lavra, at the invitation and with the support of Prince Yury Dmitrievich of Zvenigorod. Savva was later canonised as St Sabbas (Savva) of Storozhev. The monastery late flourished under the reign of Tsar Alexis, who chose the monastery as his family church and often went on pilgrimage there and made lots of donations to it. Most of the monastery’s buildings date from this time. The monastery is heavily fortified with thick walls and six towers, the most impressive of which is the Krasny Tower which also serves as the eastern entrance. The monastery was closed in 1918 and only reopened in 1995. In 1998 Patriarch Alexius II took part in a service to return the relics of St Sabbas to the monastery. Today the monastery has the status of a stauropegic monastery, which is second in status to a lavra. In addition to being a working monastery, it also holds the Zvenigorod Historical, Architectural and Art Museum.

Belfry and Neighbouring Churches

Located near the main entrance is the monastery's belfry which is perhaps the calling card of the monastery due to its uniqueness. It was built in the 1650s and the St Sergius of Radonezh’s Church was opened on the middle tier in the mid-17th century, although it was originally dedicated to the Trinity. The belfry's 35-tonne Great Bladgovestny Bell fell in 1941 and was only restored and returned in 2003. Attached to the belfry is a large refectory and the Transfiguration Church, both of which were built on the orders of Tsar Alexis in the 1650s.

To the left of the belfry is another, smaller, refectory which is attached to the Trinity Gate-Church, which was also constructed in the 1650s on the orders of Tsar Alexis who made it his own family church. The church is elaborately decorated with colourful trims and underneath the archway is a beautiful 19th century fresco.

Nativity of Virgin Mary Cathedral

The Nativity of Virgin Mary Cathedral is the oldest building in the monastery and among the oldest buildings in the Moscow Region. It was built between 1404 and 1405 during the lifetime of St Sabbas and using the funds of Prince Yury of Zvenigorod. The white-stone cathedral is a standard four-pillar design with a single golden dome. After the death of St Sabbas he was interred in the cathedral and a new altar dedicated to him was added.

Under the reign of Tsar Alexis the cathedral was decorated with frescoes by Stepan Ryazanets, some of which remain today. Tsar Alexis also presented the cathedral with a five-tier iconostasis, the top row of icons have been preserved.

Tsaritsa's Chambers

The Nativity of Virgin Mary Cathedral is located between the Tsaritsa's Chambers of the left and the Palace of Tsar Alexis on the right. The Tsaritsa's Chambers were built in the mid-17th century for the wife of Tsar Alexey - Tsaritsa Maria Ilinichna Miloskavskaya. The design of the building is influenced by the ancient Russian architectural style. Is prettier than the Tsar's chambers opposite, being red in colour with elaborately decorated window frames and entrance.

At present the Tsaritsa's Chambers houses the Zvenigorod Historical, Architectural and Art Museum. Among its displays is an accurate recreation of the interior of a noble lady's chambers including furniture, decorations and a decorated tiled oven, and an exhibition on the history of Zvenigorod and the monastery.

Palace of Tsar Alexis

The Palace of Tsar Alexis was built in the 1650s and is now one of the best surviving examples of non-religious architecture of that era. It was built especially for Tsar Alexis who often visited the monastery on religious pilgrimages. Its most striking feature is its pretty row of nine chimney spouts which resemble towers.

Circumnavigation in a Hunter?
Can be done. People have repeatedly proven the boats can do it. I think the biggest issue isn't construction or seaworthiness (which is as good or better than other production boats, IMHO), but design. Hunters are designed with input from owners who, in most cases, use the boats differently. As a result, Hunter has maximized cockpit ammenities ...
