Not too big and not too small, Fountaine Pajot’s Isla 40 is available with several layouts.
The Lagoon 55 is a head-turner dockside and will pamper owners and crew alike.
The evolution of the Balance 482 – winner of Cruising World‘s Best Performance Catamaran in the 2022 Boat of the Year contest– is about walking the line between cruising comforts and extraordinarily satisfying sailing.
The Nautitech 44 Open is designed for sailors with distant horizons in mind.
The newest performance-cruising catamarans are light and quick, with efficient daggerboards and powerful, precise sail plans–and a history, culture and presence all their own.
The trio of boats in the 2022 Boat of the Year Pocket Cruisers and Daysailors class could not have been cooler.
The Grand Soleil 44 is stunning to look at, sails like the proverbial witch, and, without a doubt, earned the title of 2022 Boat of the Year Best Performance Cruiser.
The forward-thinking design on the C38 leaves plenty of space in the bow for an owner’s en suite stateroom with a king-size berth.
Rig, keel and layout options make the Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 380 a versatile and peppy cruiser.
The latest, greatest creation from the craftsmen at France’s Alubat Shipyard – specialists in aluminium cruisers – the 54-foot Cigale 16 is an appealing blend of looks, utility and performance.
The prolific French builder Dufour has added two new models, the 470 and flagship 61, to update its range of performance-cruiser sailboats.
The Swedish-built Arcona 435Z – with its lithium-ion batteries, Solbian solar panels and new Oceanvolt ServoProp drive leg- is the first all-electric cruising boat we’ve ever reviewed. How does it measure up?
