Aft Cabins Reviews
Aft Cabin motor boat reviews from Motor Boat & Yachting magazine
-
-
Drettmann Elegance 60
This 60-footer has bigger ambitions all over
-
Bénéteau MonteCarlo 47
Two or three cabins, with IPS
-
Spirit P40 Spirit P40
The daringly innovative meets the reassuringly retro
-
Windy 9800 Windy 9800
The May 1987 issue of MBY contains an unusual boat report.
-
Windy 40 Bora
For me, the most impressive aspect of Windy's design philosophy has always been their persistent refusal to compromise practicality in the interests of fashion.
-
Wilbur 34 Downeaster Wilbur 34 Downeaster
Wilbur are to be highly commended for producing an interior so in keeping with the human scale.
-
Sunseeker Manhattan Sunseeker Manhattan 44
Try to disregard the amazing styling for a moment and view the Manhattan 44 dispassionately as an ordinary flybridge powerboat.
-
Sunseeker Hawk 34 Sunseeker Hawk 34
Sunseeker's baby may not yet be perfectly formed, but it's very close.
-
Storebro Biscay Storebro RC430 Biscay
Along with the disappearing chart table, safety and security are two areas that are increasingly in danger of being overlooked in favour of style. Fortunately this is not the case on the RC430.
-
Storebro J32 Storebro J32
Storebro are much more innovative than their conservative image suggests, such as in their extensive use of Cadcam and moulded internal monocoque structures.
-
Shakespeare Shakespeare 830
A feast of large flybridge cruisers and trawler yachts is a fine and wonderful thing, especially when compared to a diet of stodgy broads cruisers or fishing dories, but there comes a time when the palate needs something else.
-
Shamrock Shamrock 220 Stalker
Shamrock's 220 Stalker highlights how important it is to look beyond the fishing rods and baitwells, and examine our boating needs from first principles.
-
Seaward Seaward 25 Menorca
Seaward's Menorca represents a new and interesting concept, combining the excellent seakeeping of the slower semi-displacement form with the archetypal, large Mediterranean-style cockpit.
-
Sabreline 36 Express Sabreline 36 Express
High on Sabreline's list of plus points is incredibly strong construction. Having examined the building drawings in some detail, we can vouch for the fact that not only are the laminates substantial, they are excellently 'engineered'.
-
Sea T46 Sealine T46
For those buying boats in the T46's size bracket, the classic dilemma is whether to go for an aft cabin, or aft cockpit and flybridge.
-
Sealine S34
In an age of stupendous marketing superlatives, categorising the boat as simply "eminently competent" might be seen as a case of damning with faint praise
-
Sealine Sealine 410
Although the 410 was launched in September 1993, it is still an exciting boat because it unusually fuses the aft cockpit and aft cabin.
-
Searay Sea Ray 580SSS
We thought the deck was excellent: it's rare to find this space designed with the movement of large numbers of people so much in mind.
-
Sea Ranger 44/8
If you haven't spent time aboard a trawler-type cruiser, you're unlikely to appreciate just how differently and effectively this kind of boat functions compared with the archetypal aft-cockpit flybridge cruiser.
