It's a joy to take the journey with you as always thank you good luck and best of health to your decision you deserve it

[Papaondas]

congratulations for your new purchase, great boat, outremer 55 looks fantastic, I could see how impressed with outremer were you when you sailed BioTrek on a breezy day

[mitfreundlichengrussen]

I am impressed by your amazing skills to keep the "old" boat in shape - I guess it's better than new since you eliminated even the smallest faults on passage. Enjoy your decision time, I guess it is a very hard one...

[ronbumbera]

Congratulations. I know you will make the right choice. Hopefully, by the time CG2 arrives this virus will be gone and we all can get back to normal. Best wishes.

[JosePedroEspinosa]

Congrats!!! My dream is a TS5, but for money reasons is more probably a TS 42. Enjoy the new boat!

[simonball]

Aaah decisions decisions...Can't wait to see which one you choose.

[AA-vevn]

Wow, what a decision! Either one would be great. I can’t wait to see which cat you decide on and why. It’ll make for a wonderful episode (or several!). Oh, and I fully commiserate with the polishing, I’m doing my FP Belize 43 in the hot Florida sun. I haven’t dropped the polisher yet ...but give me time! 🙄 In the meantime I hope you get some time in the Katana!!

[glenpeters]

So exciting, I cannot wait to see the final product.

[RivieraStar]

Outremer 55 will be an amazing boat. I ‘d definitely choose it and i guess I will. Those 2 brand you are comparing carries totally different boat style. I f you want a VW multivan go Lagoon, if you want an Audi RS6 go Outremer.

[paolofox]

These days the new Garcia Expolcat 52 is in the water. It looks like an interesting aluminum cat. Maybe it's worth a visit ... and a video.

[cyclomaniac]

So exciting.... It's going to be a difficult decision. <grin>

O55 could be a little more noisy inside the cabin, but then again if you sleep at anchor, or sailing the Mediterranean Sea it should be quiet enough. I'am eager to see the lower beds.

[alexandrepapy]

I thought you were decided for a O55. It seems to be a fantastic boat.

[reloksat]

Like our local weather person, “Stay Tuned”! I will...

[GioFar]

That O55 looks very interesting boat, and I love the tiltable helm, I'm just wondering if there is going to be any instrumentation at the helm, looking at the 3D renders it looks like there isn't any.

[jibsoling]

Hi Rich 3 hoog achter.... :-). (Wat een idioot) The Lagoon Sixty-5 looks like a beast of a Boat. Is that the one Marc likes :-)). Speed is nice but will demand focus. I think your 52s was a great compromis between great living and still making good Miles.
I wish you All the wisdom at this difficult choice. (Ps, Marijke your fear of the size should be gone by now. You sailed a 52 with 3 persons across the Atlantic, a sixty-5 would not make a difference any longer haha)

[tomhankins]

Am interested in knowing why the main sail had to be manually pulled down on a new O51

[jtolken]

Its not clear to me which Lagoon model you are considering , but then, its an open secret you’re going for the Outremer

[FrancescoVass]

A bit late to the party, but I'll ask nevertheless: have you considered the Neel 51 trimaran? If so, what made you drop it from the list?
