Details about our CR Yacht 400 DS yacht (Sail boat)
CR yacht 400DS Mad Dog Voyager on tour in Alaska
Our sailboat is CR Yachts 400DS, pilothouse sailboat manufactured by CR Yachts of Sweden

Our sailboat is powered by a 56 HP Yanmar diesel. With a sail area of over 740 sq. ft., she cruises at a comfortable 7 knots. We chose the CR 400DS sailboat as she runs very smooth with a two-person crew but is well suited to solo operation if needed. Our vessel is very spacious inside with a nice layout and out and allows steering from the aft cockpit or inside from the inside steering/navigation station or anywhere on the boat by our wireless Raymarine remote control!

Certification of our CR Yacht 400 DS
The CR 400 DS Deck Salon model is designed by the CR design team and built according to CE norm and certified by the International Marine Certification Institute. Each boat is controlled to these standards during the building time and receives a CE certificate upon completion. Our vessel is a class A rated ocean going yacht.

Hull and Deck on our CR Yacht 400 DS
In the hull and deck they have used isopolyester with glassfibre reinforcement and multiaxial roving, everything made by hand, according to the sandwich method with divinycell as insulating material. The blue NGA Gelcoat has inserted white stripes. A hull construction consisting of stringers, engine bed, mast foot and keel reinforcement is integrated and laminated from stem to stern. All structural bulkheads are laminated to the hull and deck.

Bath platform with bath ladder are inserted into the stern. All horizontal surfaces in the deck, superstructure and cockpit are sandwich construction. Cockpit, winch plates and the bath platform are laid with 12 mm teak. Hull and deck is joined with 8-mm stainless steel acid proof bolts.
