Poor guy believes in 'Global Warming'. Nice boat though!

Garcia made an amazing trawler...some Wierd pirate boat jacking thing happened to her..shame

Little to find fault with here, but doing so is more feasible than listing everything which is great about this boat.
The proportions of the boom seemed a bit skinny to my eye - anyone else feel that way? And I was surprised by the lack of overhead handholds in the saloon.
Personally I like to see strongpoints to enable lashing any heavy items which broke loose or had to be restrained in the interior - to me smooth liners are more suitable for a house than a boat.
Things like this, in a boat with "good bones" would be easily remedied for anyone who felt the same way, so it's hardly a criticism, more a question of personal preference. -
Claims are being made for aluminum construction being better, but I am waiting to see what metal fatigue and salt water corrosion over the long term has to say about that.

$2million?

Dont give a monkeys about climate change. The climate is constantly changing throughout the year, so some of the previous comments kinda become null and void. What IS of great interest though is this beautiful boat. Something I could happily spend a few years upon. After all, did the people in the video go on and on about climate change or was the talk persistently about the boat??
Some people really need to get a life and just enjoy what is and what they have in front of them rather than whining on about who said what and / or when about something that is nothing to really do with the subject matter in hand. -
How does jimmy finance a $850k boat?

Aluminium hulls needs maintenance every year.. Fibre glass will get filthy but last a lifetime. Why was an ally hull on his wish list?

Trying to make it sound like so called "Climate Change" opened up this passage that hasn't been gone through, is absolute BULLSHIT. Just another stupid liberal, covert commercial for the big LIE of "Global Warming/Climate Change. Notice how they stopped calling it "Global Warming" and now call it "Climate Change" That's because all the top scientist's in the world after a research study, said there was ABSOLUTELY NO Global Warming, what so ever, not even one degree.So now the Lying Left, Global Alarmist Thieve's, just change what they call the LIE, to Climate Change. Well of course there is "climate change" it has been changing since the dawn of time. These idiots even tried to do a study of the polar caps and the ice sheets. There was so much ice, they couldn't even get through it, and had to cancel two studies. The ice caps are growing, not shrinking.

climate change? where? keep your regressive and make believe ideas to yourself.

Good looking, safe and practical. That's the rig for me ...... if I ever win lotto.

That boat puts to shame 80% of the mass produced sailboats on the market. What a gem she is.

Jimmy is Romanian and I'm proud of him. He is an inspiration for many of us and in my opinion he should be considered a living national treasure, much like Sir David Attenborough is in GB. Godspeed

I wonder how much that cost. $$$$$$$$$$$

Eric Forsyth sailed through the NW passage in his old fiberglass Westsail 42. What's taking Jimmy so long?
-
I wonder how Josh Slocum would feel about it.

A young Australian couple just sailed through the NW passage in a P.O.S. junk rigged boat

Looks a bit nose down; wonder how she'd be sailing hard downwind.

I love this boat. Thanks for posting.

World cruising guru Jimmy Cornell launches his new global cruiser, a boat that Matthew Sheahan discovers could spark a new niche in semi-custom adventure cruisers and that will take Cornell through the North West passage
