Yacht
By Russ, on September 2nd, 2006
Designer Frans Maas had the changeable North Sea weather in mind when he designed the Compromis 999 class. Particularly for longer trips in open water, this is a wonderfully strong and comfortable yacht. It is a Category-A Ocean class sailing sloop. “Enterprise” has the taller 12m mast and also an interesting Scheel keel which gives it a shallow draft of only 1.25m but no loss of stability or speed over the longer fin keel option.
“Enterprise” is also spacious giving me 6′ headroom and an aft cabin that, as a result of the centre cockpit design I can actually stand in the aft cabin rather than have to slide into a tube to lie down.
The other effect of the centre cockpit is that it is quite deep, and it is easy to brace yourself for those bracing two reef English Channel “cruises” !

Ontwerper Frans Maas had de wisselvalige Noord zee weer in gedachte toen hij de Compromis 999 classe ontworp. Voornamelijk voor langere reizen in open water is dit een aanzienlijk sterk en comfortabele yacht. Het is een Category-A Ocean class zeil sloop. “Enterprise” heeft de langere 12m mast en een bijzondere Scheel keel wat het een ondiepe voortgang van 1.25 meter levert maar geen verlies van stabiliteit of snelheid geeft tegenover de lange vin kiel optie.
“Enterprise” is ook ruim en geeft me een 6 hoofdruimte en een aft cabine dat, als resultaat van een centrale cabine ontwerp het mij mogelijk maakt recht op te kunnen staan in plaats van het inschuiven om te kunnen liggen.
Een ander effect van een center cockpit is dat het vrij diep is, en dat vergemakelijkt het gezelf vast te houden tijdens de Engels reef channel “cruises”
