Passport Vista 615: A Mini Review
Carol Vernon reviews this roomy cruiser for the CW 2010 Sailboat Show
Hull #1 of this offshore cruiser will be in the US this fall. Essentially a center cockpit layout, there is another seating cockpit aft that provides space for storing a hard-bottom inflatable on deck. The forward cockpit is extremely roomy, with easy access afforded by twin wheels and a hard windscreen for protection. Clearly set up for blue water cruising, the sail plan features a roller furling working jib set just aft of a roller furling reacher. Below, the layout has three double cabins, two quite large and the third more than adequate. Standard equipment includes everything you'll need to circle the world.
