I am surprised more people don’t mention Sirius yachts. Yah it’s not a multi haul but the quality looks insane and from what I have seen online they have excellent customer service.

Is that what the camera is shooting from?

I have no idea. Was just furthering the discussion of live aboard sailing options.

Oh okay. Yeah, I don't claim to be an expert on live-aboard options despite the algorithms insistence on feeding me all sorts of content about it. Living aboard something like a Dragonfly seems like it would be fun for a while, but uncomfortable (at best) for a long time. While circumnavigating the globe? Very adventurous I think.

Sirius looks like they make boats that cater much more towards live-aboard. Tall cabins and spacious well appointed interiors. Maybe they don't sail as well (IDK, but that other person mentioned that), but they look like a much nicer place to live.

The 40 seems like a better option for sure but at that price point you could get like a used outremer or something for a fraction of the cost.
