Most of the boats we see on your list are only monos, no cats?
Although we cruised a 31′ Southern cross double ender for five years then a 37′ Tayana for 15 years before moving to Abaco twenty years ago. Loved those boats but nothing can beat the confort of a Cat.
We weren’t really in the market for a cat and after spending time on cats I found the sea motion to be uncomfortable unless conditions were perfect and at anchor cats under 40’ were uncomfortable
