"Livet Ombord" a Swedish website run by leading sailing magazines, has a great photo of their testers having fun with a Cruiser 37...

To much clothes for sailing in the south (Med.) and no place to for a drink.
Still looks like fun, at least for a while.

In fairness, they were in Sweden!  And there are drinks holders built in to the forward end of the cockpit table.

I've no doubt the subsequent sales literature will state somewhere '...one careful owner, rarely used...'.

Where are the white caps? Where is the wind?

It's probably a spinnaker halyard caught on the rail of a passing Princess 76.

I remember sailing to Ballycastle NI and got the tide completely wrong and ended up like that  :tbu

Certainly was Adrenalin pumping in a 15 ft swell  ;)

Back in 2007 a sailing school yacht was trying it out in the marina, but the gate was leaking and they got stuck as the tide went out. They were still smiling afterwards though !!
