You don't have to be a boat expert to appreciate the fine craftsmanship! And state of the art design and technology. Well done. You're livin the DREAM .
The St Francis 50 is one of my favorite cats. I'd love to see a galley down configuration to free up space in the saloon. These boats tick most, if not all, the boxes for me.
The best walkthrough yet, I love the surrounds on the cupboards and the hand rails in the right placesl. Thank you, nothing left to chance as you have thought of everything.
Amazing. Thanks for the tour. I used to go for a few days at a time with my grandparents on their convertible fishing boat. We would crab, fish, and play cards all evening. It was magical to live on a boat for a few days. Some of my best childhood memories. Many happy days to you and thanks for all the great stories.
Thanks for the Tour. I have been all over the Net looking at Cats for retirement and this is the first Time I have come across a Wayfinder. Well put together boat. Usually I have some things I don't like, But this is one well designed Cat. I love it.
That's one fantastic boat! Art on the high seas! And such a fun tour. Really enjoyed it. Thank you. I wish you and yours many joyful safe adventures :o)
St. Francis 50 is one of my all time fave catamaran. They prove you can have 200+ nm days without the dagger boards. This new Mk 2 brings it up to date. Hat off to Angelo Stravanos, the designer.
Fantastic build videos and documentary! Thank you for taking the care to do it and share with us. Love to see a current tour and how things have fitted together since launch.
You did a great job with the video,you showed all the features of the boat you loved and i would tend to agree a beautiful Sailboat to be sure but is there anything you would like to change or feel are negative to the performance to the boat? I do realize we all have to put are mark on what we own either good or bad we make things more to our individual styles so i know that what works for me may not for you but your boat looks like poetry to me,simple and elegant ,congratulations.
Biggest problem with most of catamarans is lack of details. Flush mount hatches with drains, it don't take much to recess the hatch position when making mold. Table floor mounts need to be flush with floor to avoid tripping when tables are removed, again easy to do. Single spreader reduces future rig replacement costs. The extra cost of mast is greatly offset by easier tuning looks cleaner. The inside electric throttle controls should be able to fold down into desk to free up space when not needed, can use nav station as home office External control cover for sound sys should have a lanyard attached to prevent loss $1 Where would you put cabin heaters for colder climates? Engine access?
Just wondered about those sloped windows. Can you walk on them? Crew getting down from the saloon roof may need to do that. Lovely boat, how does she sail?
Outstanding Hugh, been anxiously waiting for this! Thanks for a thorough tour of the vessel. And I'm glad you remembered the printer, I was kinda listening to Yellow Ledbetter haha Do you have surround with the display? Wakey
Great narrative, great video resolution can you steady up the camera panning just a bit? I know your excited to show you beautifuly built sv but my wife was getting a little sea sick before the end. thanks and again, your improvements on the design are well worth seeing.
+Paul Dutton The St Francis 50 goes for $830K USD. I would imagine this new version would be around 850K, if not more unless they found ways to cut costs without sacrificing the quality.

One of the nicest cats I've seen. Perfectly laid out. Congratulations!
Everything I didn't know I wanted in a boat I didn't know I wanted. Beautiful new mobile home, sir!
A beautiful boat, well done St.Francis.Love the design and finish.
Damn, the boat is way nicer than most people's homes :D Looks amazing!
Shes a beaut! Love the little details.. swinging tv etc
stunning boat, so many catamarans feel like a condo, this feels like a sailboat
Functional and beautiful in every space, she is perfect!
Amazing boat, love it!

Wayfinder is the name of the boat. The make and model is St. Francis 50 Mark 2
That's one fantastic boat! Art on the high seas!
And such a fun tour. Really enjoyed it. Thank you.
I wish you and yours many joyful safe adventures :o)

Over the 6,000 miles from Cape Town to Barbados, we AVERAGED 200+ miles per day. I was surprised and pleased.
Fantastic build videos and documentary! Thank you for taking the care to do it and share with us. Love to see a current tour and how things have fitted together since launch.
This is a well thought out boat! Gonna use a lot of these Ideas on my future build. Love It.
Much prefer this hull, and the changes incorporated. Waking up and seeing that view, is much better than looking at a dresser/cabinet. Looks great.
Thanks. The boat has plenty of storage, so getting rid of the vanity was a no-brainer.
Thanks for sharing, I love the layout and cabinetry.
Absolutely amazing. Can't wait to see some video of everything in action.
That boat looks like it's everything it should be, no more, no less. I'm jealous!
So stunned... and not even a little bit jealous. Well earned!
Finally! A cat with a protected helm! One day, St. Francis...
WOW what a boat, happy sailing...
A very nice boat. You did a good job. We i=are in our 6th Year on our St Francis 50 Suliere and would not change her for any other catamaran.
Nice tour
St Francis looks lovely but the center looks so low to the water, hows the slap factor in rough seas?
This makes me want to get one, and I have no clue what I am doing. Looks great, and dug the PJ playing in the background midway through.
Superb boat!
It's amazing!
I really LIKE this one!!!
Excellent Sir - just simply excellent !! .... btw who's the music playing @ 8:00 ?
Its been 2 years so you have probably figured out this song by now but just in case it's called Wish you were here (Live) with called Roger Waters.
nice bad and well equipped, very nice presentation!
Hugh, beautiful catamaran. I have watched this about a dozen times. Wow Please tell us more about your Davits system?
Safe travels, friend!
You did a great job with the video,you showed all the features of the boat you loved and i would tend to agree a beautiful Sailboat to be sure but is there anything you would like to change or feel are negative to the performance to the boat?

Hi Hugh, any videos on how well she sails and performance. Very nice boat.

External control cover for sound sys should have a lanyard attached to prevent loss $1
Where would you put cabin heaters for colder climates?
Engine access?
Absolutely unbelievable! Would you be single-handing this most of the time, or taking on a crew member or two?
Just wondered about those sloped windows. Can you walk on them? Crew getting down from the saloon roof may need to do that. Lovely boat, how does she sail?
Any boat updates? Considering one for myself and would love to hear from an experienced owner.
Outstanding Hugh, been anxiously waiting for this! Thanks for a thorough tour of the vessel.
And I'm glad you remembered the printer, I was kinda listening to Yellow Ledbetter haha
Do you have surround with the display?
Wakey
I don't have surround, but could have added it. The two Fusion speakers do very well. Movie nights on the boat are amazing.
Great narrative, great video resolution can you steady up the camera panning just a bit? I know your excited to show you beautifuly built sv but my wife was getting a little sea sick before the end. thanks and again, your improvements on the design are well worth seeing.
Noted! I'll try to do better next time.
Are you going out on the water solo or with a team/another person?
I've done both. Right now, I have a great sailing partner, and we bring on crew and friends as needed.
😍
Hugh, I just had the contract sent tome from George. Your advice would be appreciated. How can I connect with you?
I call being first guest! That's how it works, right?
So how much? and how long is the build time? Quite jealous.

That is not a bad price.. Quite surprised.
It's more than that, depending on what options and equipment you go with.
well , take my money !
The pump is really loud. Otherwise, nice boat.
Key word....um!
