Anchoring ELF 26 Catamaran

Steve Walker www.ahoy-boats... continues his review of the NEW catamaran built in Romania, the Richard Woods designed ELF 26. PRICES BELOW.
This fast, compact, cruising boat has more accommodation and facilities in it than other catamarans of this size like the VirusBoats V8. The outside space lends itself to a very enjoyable, social experience when sailing. This video deals with anchoring and air draft.
