About This Yacht
Key Features and Expert Opinions
- Performance: Reviewers praise the boat as a "joy to drive, with a buttery helm" and an easily driven hull that can achieve speeds of 7 knots or more, even when reefed. The hull features a hard chine that increases stability when heeled.
- Comfort and Layout: The interior is notable for its immense volume, modern yet warm "teak-colored Alpi" wood finish, and excellent natural light. The cockpit is large, designed for socializing, with twin helm stations and a fold-down swim platform.
- Usability & Design: All lines lead back to the cockpit winches, making the boat manageable even for a small crew. The deck design is clean and uncluttered, with wide side decks and flush hatches for easy movement. Optional features like the 360 Docking system were available to aid in close-quarters maneuvering.
- Galley and Systems: The T-shaped galley is well-thought-out, featuring ample storage, double sinks, a three-burner stove, and dedicated fridge/freezer compartments. The boat could be heavily optioned with features like air conditioning, a generator, and a water maker, making it suitable for long-term cruising.
