Norseboat: classy sail/row cruiser

August 12, 2005

I'm into simple, versatile boats. Here's an 18-footer that sails, rows, looks great and sleeps two. It was recently used to win a adventure race. The Sea Pearl is a more venerable offering in this class, but it's bigger and weighs 600 lbs compared to the Norseboat's 400. For human-power travel such differences can really change the convenience of a boat.
