The Dragonfly 40 Performance Cruiser is a folding trimaran designed for speed, comfort, and pure sailing fun.
The Elan Impression 43 is roomy and solid, and will still kick up its heels when the breeze goes light.
The J/40, our Best Overall Boat of the Year, exemplifies innovation, blending performance, comfort and timeless design.
Once the standard for bluewater sailing, midsize boats are making a comeback this year with three strong contenders.
Versatile and performance-driven, this year’s 40- to 45-foot cruisers impressed with plush amenities and club-racing potential.
For offshore adventures, this year’s large monos—Moody DS48 and Allures 51.9—offer distinct yet equally compelling platforms.
The Midsize Multihull category featured a fiercely competitive lineup from top builders in France, South Africa and Australia.
These two big cruising cats break from the charter mold, with features and performance tailored for true bluewater sailors.
Three cutting-edge multihulls, including the Neel 52 trimaran, showcase innovation and performance in this year’s contest.
The Windelo 54 Yachting’s innovative design and eco-friendly features earned it the Judges’ Special Recognition for 2025.
In a world of cruiser-racers, where performance and style are completely intertwined, the Solaris 44 is right at home.
A rangy yacht that’s robust with options, the Hanse 510 represents a new direction for the German production builder.
