Your tax dollars at work, a country willing to stand up to crooked banks (hint: it's not the US of A), and how the EPA ain't working for the folks of Goliad County Texas...
So, what do you really need to cruise?
If you fit the universal average for folks cruising on a sailboat it's more than likely you're a couple and, if you're paying attention to the whole need/want thang, I suspect a boat like this might just fit the bill...

Of course, a lot of couples think they need something bigger like the Amel Super Maramu...
To be honest, they are both pretty cool boats but seriously, for a couple the Amel is so much overkill that it is really kind of
The real disadvantage of a boat like the Amel, other than its cost and black hole drain on your cruising budget, is the fact that it insulates you from the real world you want to cruise in which is something worth giving some thought to.
Me, if given the choice between the two boats, I'd be all over the Samoa in a heartbeat! Sure I'd lust a little over the Amel but being sensible I know the Amel would never ever pass the need/want test while the Samoa would...
Nuff said, except to mention that the plans for the Samoa 28 are currently being discounted by 20% this month...
