Gusto
Article Abstract:
Gusto is a big 44-feet, heavy (displacement of 28, 500 pounds), cold-molded cruiser/racer ship and has a unique blend of traditional and modern thinking in its design. The main advantage of such a heavy-displacement boat is that it is easy to handle, has a tolerable motion and its weight allows it to carry much more momentum thorough a lull in the wind.
