“Cutwater Cruisers are Swift, Seaworthy, Economical and Trailerable”
The Cutwater is a new boat from the keel up, and the major difference between it and most other boats in its class is what the company calls its “keel stepped hull”. Most stepped hulls are built for high speed and therefore have no keel; but one of the features of the Cutwater is that is has a substantial keel aft of the hull bottom. This improves tracking and adds a bit of roll dampening while the boat’s at rest.

Thank you Captain Rick for a wonderful experience aboard the O'day. We are very pleased with the boat & the service you have provided. It is rare to find people today that take such pride in their job, but you have gone over & beyond our expectations with answering all of our questions. It has been a great buying experience. Regards, –Brent Coleman
Hi Cap'n Rick, ... That's fantastic (Regarding closing sale of their boat)! A really great job by you and your team. By the way, we really liked the video that you shot. We will be waiting for the contract, will sign, scan, and send back ASAP. Thanks again. –Bob and Jo Casto, May 26, 2012

Rick was great. He closed a deal that required international correspondence while I was in South America and the seller was in Asia. He put everything together, helped sail her for a short sea trial and still took the time to check in after the sale to make sure everything was okay. Rick’s help and patience is appreciated. He is an experienced professional ... I've recommended him to friends who also dream of owning a sailboat.–Artie Maxwell, Customer
