Mr. Williams- I have very much enjoyed everything you have created about your cruising experiences, from your book to this site about the new 68. Your books and web information has also given me a great way to educate my wife about our dreams and what is possible for our family in the future. Two quick questions about your reasoning behind two decisions you made with the new Sans Souci which surprised me: 1. wet exhaust and 2. conventional diesel engines instead of the next generation hybrid diesel / electric. Attempting to answer my own questions.......does the strength and quality of the Nordhavn ships make you comfortable with the through hull risks of wet exhaust? And is the diesel / electric propulsion choice too untested in 'smaller' yachts, as well as too cost prohibitive? All the best on your future journeys. In good health, Edward Pearson	doctor@pearsonwellnesscenter.com	2007-02-27 15:22:18
