CSY was founded by Jack Van Ost and located in Tampa, Florida and began as a chartering company. CSY boats were built to unusually high standards of strength, durability, and quality consistent with Lloyd's design and boat building requirements. Uniquely, CSY did not use wood lamination in its construction, the only wood used in the construction of these boats are heavy laminated structural stringers, bulkheads and interior furniture. The CSY hull is up to 1.5" of solid fiberglass reinforced plastic resin with 14 dual layers, and the deck is also solid fiberglass. The keel is internal encapsulated 8,900 lb. lead and internal encapsulated 3,000 lb. concrete, the CSY was designed so the 3,000 lb. concrete could be cut off the bottom to make the boat draft 4’11” if desired.S/v It’s Good To Be has got all the potential to be the perfect cruising vessel.
