Broads01 Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 I'm mulling over what to hire for my second trip next year, 95% certain to be with Richardsons because I'll get 20% discount as it's my second booking in the year. There'll be 2 or 3 of us aboard and all wanting separate cabins. I was wondering if anyone knows the lengths of the quarter berths on Glistening Horizon and Blue Horizon/Gem. I know they all have saloon doubles but I can't be bothered with all that making the bed every night faff! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JennyMorgan Posted August 12, 2017 Share Posted August 12, 2017 If a full length berth is two meters long then surely a quarter of that is . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marshman Posted August 12, 2017 Share Posted August 12, 2017 And there was me thinking it referred to the width so you could not fall out when it was rough, let alone get in the damned thing!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisB Posted August 12, 2017 Share Posted August 12, 2017 The main problem with the trad quarter berth on a yacht is your feet and lower half going under the cockpit means you are subjected to heat and noise if under power. Not a problem day sailing but if you are on passage a pain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
