Gentlemen, if you are referring to me, I compared these to underline the differences in the nature of the boats — I was trying to make the very same point, which you also made. :-)

Obviously, It's a cool and extremely desirable boat — I can't wait to hear how she sails and feels.

Indeed, as Stefan wrote, it really was the only possible move to shift the centreboard to the side. If there would have been a casing in the middle, it would have been impossible to walk past to reach the front cabin. Now that the usual casing was missing, the middle table system was arranged with a...

New Dragonfly 25 released on Düsseldorf Boot

Saw this in the flesh yesterday at Boot 2015. Some thoughts about these topics and my overall impressions (for what they are worth). Firstly, it seemed to be built very, very light. I would have thought that it is probably even lighter than what it really was (1050kg?). I guess most of that weight g...

Dragonfly 28 Comments

This is naturally the raw undetailed design, not an illustration with all the extra gloss. Imagining the real deal with all the things in place, like pretty hull color, pulpits, sails, rigging etc, it will definitely be a nice package. When Df35 concepts came, it also looked a bit drafty at first. W...

Dragonfly 28 Comments

Thank you Bo (and Quorning boats) for posting this. Very interesting -- who knows, could be my next boat. Apparently I was too bold to think about folding the floats one axis more. Seemed like a logical solution -- maybe in some future developments, making it double swing wing :-) Let's see: They ha...

Dragonfly 28

On Quorning boats / Dragonfly website they have worded it in the lines of "finally cracking the code" for lesser trailerable width. I have no inside knowledge and this is naturally all just speculation, to me this sounds like that they really might have some new development for the swing w...

The extended df35 video is also online

The extended version of the Df35 video has also been recently added to the Dragonfly site. It is even more stunning than the previous one. The boat looks pretty darn impressive, especially when they are sailing about 23 knots. Here's the link: http://sejlsport.tv/dragonfly/pages/df35_ultimate/df35mo...
