1986 CREALOCK 40' for Sale in Bristol, Rhode Island
Crealock, a renowned designer, described the factors he considered in designing a boat:
"Seaworthiness in a cruising boat has to be the No. 1 consideration. It doesn't matter how cute the boat is if it doesn't get (the cruisers to their destination) in one piece ... Just about any boat does well in Southern California. A bathtub would do fairly well. But when things get bad, when it's blowing hard and rough, that's when the difference between boats shows up most. But beyond safety, you must give up in some areas to achieve in others. The boat must be aesthetically pleasing to the owner and not too slow - nobody likes a slow boat. But you can't take a camper and put it on a Ferrari and say you have the ideal combination".
The Creala 40 rating for Motion Comfort at 39.34 is greater than every production boat in the same category (Catalina, Beneteau, Jeanneau, etc.) and many others. Contact the Broker to learn more about Motion Comfort ratings from Ted Brewer, who created the category.

About Oaksmith Yachts
We know what it feels like to need to know what's past that next hill. To stare across an ocean and want to see what's out there. To wonder what's in that bay or on that island past that next point. To only have a day or a week to explore what should take months. We know what it's like to not be able to afford to let the weather stop you. We know what it feels like and we have a solution.
