Innholdsfortegnelse for New Boat Buyer's Guide 2026 i Power & Motoryacht

My colleagues and I can be picky. It comes with the territory when you review and write about boats, people and places for a living. So I knew there would be no better group of salty souls to poll for a breakdown of off-the-beaten-channel destinations we might all consider as we flip the calendar and cruise into the summer months. We hope this list of 11 great places inspires you to push beyond your comfort zone and experience someplace new. NEW SMYRNA, FLORIDA Many boaters traveling up or down the ICW zip right past New Smyrna Beach, Florida, missing out on a laid-back destination with incredible fishing opportunities and a long heritage of boatbuilding. New Smyrna has a bit of everything from state-of-the-art marinas, excellent restaurants, beaches and a sandbar…

A steady southeast wind layered chop atop building seas was exactly the conditions I was hoping for to sea trial the Regulator 35. Any boat rides well on calm days, but chunky, short-period swells separate wheat from chaff. Tom Kniskern, a longtime Regulator dealer who operates KMC Marine in Lighthouse Point, Florida, manned the helm as we picked our way toward open water. With enough room to put the boat up on plane, the Regulator ride showed through. We found a happy cruise at 36 knots, zipping along in the 2- to 4-footers and netting .8 mpg. There were no hard slams, rattles, or nosedives. At wide-open throttle, the boat safely motored along at 50 knots in the lumpy seas. And we were comfortably talking, not yelling. The Regulator 35…

I once knew a guy who spent a New England winter living in a marina aboard a 24-foot sailboat. It sounded romantic, but in reality, he suffered. No amount independence from lawnmowers and mortgages could offset the cold, damp, cramped quarters or the lack of heat, hot water or space—even for a cat. Such hardships wouldn’t be an issue on the new Krogen 60 Open. Although its length and beam are similar to its raised pilothouse sister, the Krogen 58, the 60 feels considerably larger. It has a slightly taller profile and about 20 percent more interior volume, along with additional headroom. That space was obvious as soon as I stepped from the cockpit into the salon. Unlike Kadey-Krogen’s classic raised pilothouse designs, this “Open” series integrates the salon, galley,…

In mid-2025, Outer Reef Yachts announced that the 780 Adventure, the first boat completed after its merger with Lynx Yachts, had completed an impressive shakedown cruise—a 2,300-plus nautical-mile voyage from its Dutch shipyard to La Napoule, France. According to Outer Reef’s President and CEO, Jeff Druek, and Trevor De Faoite, Managing Director of Outer Reef Europe, the 780 was a comfortable and smooth operator on the leg from Gibraltar to La Napoule. Her effcient hull design returned a fuel burn of 5 gallons per hour at eco-cruise, which gives her a range of over 5,000 nautical miles. Druek says the Adventure 780, which made her world debut at the Cannes Yachting Festival, is for adventurous cruisers who want to drop the hook farther afield than the usual Bahamas anchorages. With…

Dichotomy. That’s the word I jot my notebook as we idle back through a no-wake zone aboard Azimut’s new Seadeck 7. In many ways, the second sibling in the Seadeck line is, at 71 feet, a proper motoryacht—with the styling, quality construction, and trickle-down features you would expect from Azimut-Benetti. In fact, Giorgio Sarti, Americas Area Manager, told me as we left the dock that morning that a previous Benetti owner recently decided to downsize to the 7. Absolutely loaded with clever features, the space that seems to do the best double duty is the versatile cockpit/salon. With the fold-down gunwales lowered, sunshade (with vertical privacy shade aft) deployed, unique salon doors fully open, and leaves added to the dining table, I can easily envision an elegant dinner being served…

The 2025 Dubai International Boat Show could easily have changed its name to the Gulf Craft International Boat Show. With 18 boats on display—including eight world premieres—the Middle East’s only major yacht builder put on a tour de force for the relatively small but seriously qualified boating crowd that showed up at the docks. One of those world premieres was the Oryx 47 LX, a vessel that will check a lot of boxes for American boaters. Oryx is one of four lines that Gulf Craft builds (megayacht lines include Majesty and Nomad, and Silvercat, a lineup of smaller catamarans). Named for the national animal of the United Arab Emirates, the Arabian oryx, Oryx’s boats are fast, agile and hearty, just like their desert-dwelling namesakes. The 47 comes in open “FX”…

As is pretty well known by now, Pearl Yachts is one of Britain’s smaller yacht companies, yet one of its most successful. Annual output is measured in dozens rather than hundreds, and each of those dozen or so yachts is put together, in China, with a level of care, quality, and an attention to the customer’s choices that borders on the bespoke. The choices are legion, and not all binary: Some options you either take or leave, but there are three engine options, three interior design schemes, and plenty of other decisions to make. You even have to choose the color of the deck caulking. We caught up with Pearl’s Iain Smallridge, founder and managing director, at the company’s south-coast offce at Swanwick, on England’s Hamble River. Smallridge makes no…

Riviera Yachts won praise with its Sport Yacht series. The boats are epic poems to the Ozzie boating life, offering the ideal combination of indoor-outdoor living atop lithe, stout hulls built to take on the notoriously heavy seas off Australia. The model line, which ranges in size from 46 to 60 feet, was further enhanced several years back with the Platinum Series. The in-house customization graces the boats with modified exterior and interior styling cues that include striking gunmetal hulls and dark electronics arrays with matching soft goods and other luxe touches throughout. With this winning combination, it’s already a smashing success. The builder said it had sold an astonishing 30 hulls following her world debut at Australia’s Sanctuary Cove boat show. My tour all but confirmed that the 6800…

In a confused mix of head, following, and beam seas, I adjusted the throttle on Back Cove’s 412, trying to find a sweet spot. As it turned out, in the washing machine-like conditions between Newport, Rhode Island, and our destination at the northern end of Buzzards Bay, that sweet spot was between 19 and 21 knots. At that speed, I, Back Cove’s marketing manager, the boat’s owner, and our captain were able to hold a conversation while the wipers flicked away the occasional wind-strewn salt spray. Earlier that morning, Back Cove’s Allie Alsup mentioned that of the 106 manufactured Back Cove 41s—the predecessor to the updated 412—many had completed or were in the process of completing the Great Loop. I started to ask myself: Could the 412 be the perfect…

Not to brag, but before my invitation to test the Hinckley 39 on the Chesapeake, my family was in the midst of breaking a dubious record. For five of the previous seven workdays, at least one of my boys had been home sick from daycare—for myriad reasons. Perhaps craving more time with dad, they thoughtfully alternated their sick days to keep me on my toes and scrubbing down with sanitizer. So when the opportunity arose to drive—alone, in sweet, sweet silence—to Hinckley’s Bay Bridge Marina in Maryland to test the new 39 Picnic Boat, I jumped at it. The 234-slip marina, tucked away in an idyllic Chesapeake harbor, is one of Hinckley’s newest acquisitions. On a windy afternoon, it proved the perfect base to put the first-ever Doug Zurn/Hinckley design…

According to the World Happiness Report (which is a real thing), Finland has been the world’s happiest country for eight years running. Boaters who have visited the Nordic nation may have a clue as to why. It has loads of gorgeous coastline and everyone there seems to have access to a boat. As such, a bevy of Finnish builders compete for dominance both in that country and the hallowed American market. There are the omnipresent Axopars, the upstart XOs, and also Saxdors, which offer a slightly upscale option over the competition, though still at a reasonable price point. The Saxdor 340 GTWA that made its American debut at the 2025 Palm Beach boat show is a prime example of what the builder offers. She’s a four-berth speed demon with nice…

Taking in the profile of the Aquila 50 Yacht on a warm morning at Key Largo’s Ocean Reef Club, I met Global Brand Director Alain Raas. “If you look at the evolution of cats, they’ve changed a lot in the past decade—they were just big boxes or rectangles on the water and were not very attractive,” admits Raas. “And so, what we on the Aquila side have really focused on is making them look a lot better; more yachty, sportier. And then, in addition to that, our focus is on private ownership versus charter.” Besides evolving the boat’s aesthetics, Raas says that they had to be mindful of their somewhat aging demographic. “Our demographic for boats in the 50-foot range is between 50 and 70 years old. So sadly, as…

While there is debate about whether HAL 9000 introduced the concept of artificial intelligence to the public, it is widely recognized that HAL played a significant role in raising awareness about AI and sentient machines. HAL 9000 also brought forth the idea that intelligent machines could possess malevolent tendencies. If you stick with me through this journey, we’ll explore the possibilities and potential pitfalls of AI on the water. However, those pitfalls won’t include the computers we rely on attempting to take over. Artificial intelligence is a broad term with various definitions and classifications. Its amorphous nature leaves it open to myriad interpretations—especially by marketing departments. I spent 20 years in corporate technology infrastructure, during which time cloud computing became all the rage. I vividly recall the confusion that accompanied…

When Axopar began drawing lines in Finland barely a decade ago, they couldn’t have possibly imagined the product of their imagination careening between the narrow, red-rock walls of Glen Canyon in the parched, triple-degree heat of the southwestern United States. Indeed, the Utah shoreline of Lake Powell sounds, figuratively, more like a million miles (or lightyears) from the Scandinavian fjordlands—5,000 miles and half a world away, in actual fact—for which Jan-Erik Viitala first intended his designs. But as chance, fate, or some amalgam of the two would have it, an Axopar—in particular, a 37 XC Cross Cabin—would find itself right at home in the desert. And at a closer glance, there should be no surprise why. Look at a topographical map, or better yet satellite imagery of Lake Powell. With…

On February 15, 2023, Scout Boats founder Steve Potts took the stage at the Miami boat show. Flanked by his son and Lead Designer Stevie, the Potts revealed a small model that wowed even jaded marine journos. The 670 LXS would be the longest outboard-powered yacht ever. She had the swooping, downswept lines of a Scout, but bore five 600-horsepower Mercury outboards and a high, flared sportfishevoking bow. With walkways from cockpit to foredeck, she was ostensibly an “outboard-powered center console,” but she had much more indoors space than, say, the HCB 65 Estrella or Scout’s then flagship 530 LXF. Potts promised unique versatility thanks to a three-foot, five-inch draft and a low rear profile: “Imagine going to a Destin sandbar, stepping off in waist-deep water and walking ashore. You…

It was a splendid morning in Washington’s San Juan Islands, the site of Passagemaker’s Trawlerfest event in the Pacific Northwest. Our test steed, the North Pacific 590 Skylounge, was making her world debut. The builder’s largest-ever vessel, the 590 is a big jump from its 49-foot flagship. I make tiny adjustments to her heading from the matching Llebroc helm chair, and it feels great to be aboard this inaugural enclosed flybridge model. (she’s also available with a lower pilothouse and flybridge.) The 590’s helm is on centerline. Five forward-facing windows and rectangular side glass give expansive visibility. Her standard electronics suite—three 16-inch Garmin multifunction displays, Sleipner variable-speed bow and stern thrusters, autopilot and engine controls—is smartly arranged from the destroyer-style wheel. Abaft the helm, an L-shape settee with a folding…

One of the most memorable ad campaigns of the 1980s and 1990s was Absolut Vodka. The Swedish brand entered a competitive American spirits market with a bottle shaped like an apothecary tincture. The ad agency capitalized on this oddity, featuring it on ads drawn by Andy Warhol and Keith Haring, with others depicting swimming pools, ski slopes, and New York City traffc in the bottle’s distinctive silhouette. Sales skyrocketed. I think of these print ads during my tours aboard the boats from Absolute Yachts. The Italy-based builder seemingly came out of nowhere in the early 2010s to take on a packed segment, adding its own line of sleek flybridge models. Buyers noticed and Absolute’s presence grew, with larger displays at successive boat shows. The builder’s semi-displacement Navettas are “little ships”…

When a 135-year-old Italian boatyard tackles a modern design, you get something unexpected: bygone elegance fused with contemporary performance. In the Fratelli Aprea Lancia Aprea 52—a powder-blue stunner—classic Amalfi Coast charm meets new-world utility, powered here by quad 600-horsepower V12s. Fratelli Aprea’s new line ranges from 32 to 72 feet and will generally be Volvo-Penta IPS in-board-powered, but the U.S. market demanded an outboardfriendly version—and they delivered, complete with a shallow 2’9” draft and a sprawling teak swim platform. Fratelli Aprea’s traditional gozzos are built by hand in Sorrento with an obsessive attention to detail. Until recently, they were rare in the States. That changed when American entrepreneur Michael Sinacola, with roots in Italy and a passion for wooden boats, visited the shipyard on a whim during a charter trip.…

On a muggy morning last Spring, I met Palm Beach Yachts CEO Mark Richards at a Malaysian marina. Richards was excited to take a crew out for a trial of a new 65-footer that Palm Beach calls its “Alpha Model.” She’s a shapely and somewhat sinister-looking speedster called the GT60, and she’s destined for the States. Like all Palm Beaches, there’s what I’d call a timeless E-type Jaguar quality to her downswept, Down East lines and beautifully curved cockpit windshield. Slathered in a deep blue-gray Awlgrip with an aggressive orange band along her lower hull, she looks to be running 30 knots just standing still. This one’s been built for an owner with a couple of Palm Beaches and a few TV shows under his belt. He plans to cruise…

Six years ago, Prestige loaned the Power & Motoryacht team their 46-foot flybridge model for an entire summer so we could truly test the boat and learn what the brand was all about. Time is a funny thing—six years can feel like a blink, yet in other ways, it seems like a lifetime ago. That was before I had kids, when I wouldn’t think twice about loading up a boat with gear and colleagues and blasting off to Block Island or the Vineyard for a week. In hindsight, that summer aboard the Prestige 46 was the punctuation mark on a particular slice of life. The following year brought both a pandemic and my eldest son, Connor—and all the responsibilities that come with parenthood. A lot has changed since that summer.…

Sirena’s new 48 Coupe Hybrid, as it’s called, has the same 502-gallon fuel capacity as the original 48, but in place of the earlier boat’s 550-horsepower Cummins engines (or 670-horsepower Volvo Pentas) it is fitted with a boxed pair of 180 kW diesel generators, and two 213 kW clutchless electric motors mounted directly on the propeller shafts. In addition to its pretty substantial fuel tanks, the Hybrid also has a formidable 78 kWh of lithium-ion battery capacity as standard, or twice that if you prefer. So as you might imagine, the engine room is a pretty unusual space. The batteries are not in evidence—they’re way down out of sight, their considerable weight no doubt aiding stability—but the gensets in their boxes sit where the engines used to be, and the…

It’s not uncommon to hear grumbling on the docks about the cost of new boats. Here’s the good news for those weary of sticker shock: Beneteau’s latest launch is a family-friendly pocket cruiser for all seasons that carries a competitive price. The Antares 9 is a 30-foot, 6-inch boat that costs around $275,000 with most cruising amenities, including a pair of Mercury outboards. It replaces the previous iteration of this model. The 9 is one of six boats in the Antares series, a line of pilothouse cruisers in production for 47 years, ever since the 7.50 was launched in 1977. The largest boat in the series is the 42-foot Antares 12. “The 9 is inspired by that flagship, and you see that in things like the finishes and premium details,”…

After nearly a decade of service, the team at Pursuit decided that it was time the popular OS 325 Offshore center console—first launched in 2015—was updated. “It has seen a good life cycle, and it was time for it to be revamped,” said Mark Taiclet, Pursuit Director of Brand Management, during our sea trial off Fort Pierce, Florida. While the 2025 model has the same LOA, beam, and name as the one it replaces, Pursuit built all-new hull and deck molds. Many of the tweaks the design team made were subtle; expanding access to the cockpit machinery space and dropping the floor in the head for inches more headroom, but there are also significant changes. For example, due to advances in outboard rigging technology, the transom platform is now flatter…

Tiara’s 56 LS is the largest in its Luxury Sport line, and it carries its name in spades, but an optional fishing package marries two seafaring pastimes, which is why we had planned to fish hull number four of the model this summer on Lake Michigan. Working aboard fishing charters, on the gas dock, and in and around the marina while growing up along the waterfront in Connecticut, I reckoned Tiara was as New England as clam chowder. These were the boats that people owned and kept sparkling, but were so perfectly outfitted for fishing Long Island Sound that it was my dream to spend summer evenings slipping out to midsound reefs for an al fresco cockpit dinner of sea bass, striper or whatever came over the rail. Those that…

Following in the footsteps of Silent’s 64 and 120, the Italian builder’s newly designed SY62 is chock full of innovative features and clever uses of space. The modular construction and semi-custom interiors will interest a range of owners—so long as they’re ready to make the jump to electric. Silent Yachts burst onto the scene in 2009, pushing fully electric propulsion. With hypothetically limitless range from solar panels and lithium batteries, the tradeoff is that owners might need to alter their cruising style for more moderate speeds and power consumption on board. Still, it’s hard to argue when they’re heading out on holiday and skipping the fuel dock—and the bill. While this is an intuitive, owner-friendly build, crew will probably be fairly common on these boats and the crew cabin (forward…

Sitting at a hole-in-the-wall bar outside Seakeeper’s former Mohnton, Pennsylvania, facility several years ago with thennewly-minted CEO Andrew Semprevivo and Head of Marketing Kelsey Barrett, we glanced through the menu and swapped stories over glasses of tap water. We talked about our own smaller boats—boats that, frankly, weren’t gyro-worthy. Barrett joked that the company didn’t offer anything for her small Whaler. To that, Semprevivo said that one day there would be a Seakeeper for every boat. I laughed. Kelsey laughed. Andrew didn’t. Looking back at his comment now, I realize what I originally wrote off as the brashness of a new leader was, in fact, a glimpse at the cards he was keeping close to the vest: the Seakeeper 1, which fits aboard boats as small as 23 feet, and…

Taking the step up to a new boat is a challenging proposition. There are so many models on the market and choices for everyone from anglers to watersport enthusiasts can overwhelm. But if you find yourself with the dilemma of choosing between your favorite pastimes, consider Everglades’ new 367CX. The CX stands for crossover, meaning you can play with the family, cruise to a restaurant with friends or just fish. “This is meant to be a boat that’s filled with lifestyle elements,” says Matt Holloway, Everglades’ director of business development. “It’s a luxury piece, where there are air conditioners, and there’s a cabin down below, and teak tables up in the bow, and so forth.” Everglades has fishing in its DNA, so the new 7-Series focuses on family friendly luxury…

I heard it said more than once at this year’s Palm Beach boat show that the docks were choked with center consoles. One model that didn’t get lost in the slew was Sōlace’s new 30CS. This, the third and smallest of their CS/Center Step lineup (which also includes the 32CS and 37CS), is about the most amenity-laden “small” center console I’ve seen. Sōlace bills the CS line as being “tailored more towards offshore pursuits” owing to a more open, fisher-friendly layout and larger fuel capacity than the 30 Hybrid Center Console (HCS). From the easy stern platform boarding to a family-friendly bowrider-esque pointy end, a capacious head (with 6 feet, 5 inches of clearance) in the console, and coaming pads all around (save for the dive door), she’s as much…

Though I’m familiar with Homer’s reference to the Aegean as “wine-dark,” I always thought that guy was full of it—until I visited Greece to sea trial Omikron’s OT-60. Standing at the transom as we zipped across the Meltemi wind-whipped chop, I peered down into the sea. Not quite cabernet, but there was an undeniable magenta overtone. Homer knew his stuff. So does Omikron. I can’t recall a builder as versatile. The Greek connection to the sea runs deep. With thousands of islands and a peninsula surrounded by water, the country ranks third globally for total commercial ships and leads in oil tankers. That maritime heritage was evident at Omikron’s yard near Athens. Formerly Olympic Marine, the company has a history of large-vessel refits. Touring the factory past carpentry and welding…

Arcadia’s quirky little Sherpa was one of my favorite boats of 2016 when we tested the first one in the Bay of Naples, and it has remained a firm favorite ever since. The manifest oddness of its appearance—which in the intervening years has come to seem a lot less odd, as other shipyards adopt the concept—evaporated as soon as I walked up the gangplank. You instantly understand the concept—a brilliant ordering of priorities that focuses on using the boat as a boat. Nothing impedes the pleasure of simply being afloat. This new Sherpa is about 6 feet longer on the same beam, the extra length coming from modifications made to the stern sections to cope with the weight of larger engines. It also offers more options than the original—not just…

Dense white walls of spray crashed over the bow and buffeted the towering, enclosed bridge. The wipers sprinted from side to side, flicking the spray from the boat’s brow like a fighter saying, “Is that all you got?” I’m reminded of the maxim builders like Maritimo often use: You’ll break before the boat does. This would certainly be the case on this day. The stacked chop we were blasting through off Ft. Lauderdale was but a small test of the M75’s offshore prowess and she was passing it with aplomb. From the exceptionally quiet enclosed bridge, the seas were running two- to three-feet with a breeze blowing around maybe 20 knots. There was no pounding. We seemed to simply glide through the waves at every angle. After concluding our two-way…

“A luxury villa at sea” is how Pardo’s representatives want us to see the builder’s GT75, which is now the most substantial yacht in the builder’s seven-boat lineup Hyperbole? Sure, but that’s their job. And actually, it didn’t take long to conclude that this description of the Italian builder’s new flagship was essentially spot on. She’s a production vessel, but also quite customizable: Available with two to four lower staterooms and up or down galley. From dockside, there’s no mistaking the GT75 for anything but a Pardo-built performance luxury entertainer. She’s characteristically angular, with a reverse-raked bow bearing a beautiful, curved swath of stainless out front that’s both accent and functional wave slicer. Gunwales are fairly flat until you’re astern, where they plunge down to the beach platform at a…

I’ve long been a fan of Princess’s Sportbridge range as I think it offers a maximal amount of on-board enjoyment mixed with an aesthetic that would make me proud to own one—no small feat of design. I was lucky enough to tour the builder’s new S65, a boat that debuted in Cannes in 2024, at this year’s Miami boat show. What I found was a vessel in line with what I was expecting, which is to say, it left me wanting for little else. For a $5.4-million boat, this model packs a lot into a 66-foot, 10-inch footprint. That begins in the cockpit where U-shaped transom seating wraps ever so gently around a versatile folding teak table. A small settee forward and to starboard provides a sheltered place to get…

You may be wondering why Power & Motoryacht is reviewing the Sunseeker Manhattan 68, a boat that debuted a half a decade ago. It’s simple: While the exteriors and the 69-foot, 7-inch by 17-foot, 3-inch footprint are virtually untouched, the interiors on this popular model are all new. Despite an exterior close to the initial design, the Manhattan 68 still pops. Knife-like hullside windows appear to twist like a helix as they peel backward, breaking up the yacht’s profile. The after portion of the flybridge swoops back over the cockpit providing shade and streamlining the profile. But these differences will only manifest themselves to true aficionados. The real show starts when you step aboard the hydraulic swim platform and take in the beach club area with an overhead shower, dedicated…

The design team at Grady-White has a knack for taking great boats and making them even better. When they introduce a feature that becomes a customer must-have, the designers will roll out the same touches on other models across the lineup. The Freedom 345 is examplary, combining the comfort and style of the Freedom 415 with the fishability of the Canyon 456 in a slightly smaller package. Grady’s Freedom line of dual consoles feel like an express-style boat from the helm aft, yet offer easy access to the bow, which is loaded with seating and entertaining options. The bow layout can be arranged as a sunpad, dinette or casting area. And when it’s time to drop the hook, you lower the dinette table and walk all the way to the…

The 2013 Seattle Boat Show was a transformative experience for Brian Krantz. A towing and salvage captain by trade, Krantz was looking to hang a shingle as a boat broker. He saw some promising models at the show, but it was the event’s sole European offering, the Sargo 28, that really got his attention. Krantz liked the protected, walkaround decks, enclosed pilothouse and accommodations package on the 28. The boat reminded him of the rugged workboats he ran as a professional captain. A few months later, he inked a deal to become Sargo’s North America dealer. He also founded Inside Passage Yacht Sales in Anacortes, Washington, to handle sales and service. Until now, Sargo has matched its boats, which run from 28 to 45 feet, with Volvo Penta diesels. The…

If the overlanding gurus at Sportsmobile USA were to conjure up an all-weather, four-season adventure boat, there’s no doubt in my mind that it would look a little something like the Viggo C10 Offshore. This lightweight, all-aluminum 36-footer displaces just under 10,000 pounds fully loaded with twin Mercury 300R V8s, but these lightweight, Swedish-built and -designed boats are about as heavy-duty as they come. Whether you’re island-hopping or running from point A to B and back, this is a trusty, if decidedly modern, take on a commuter built to get you there year-round—wherever there is—as quickly and dryly as any seabound vessel can, be it through incessant wind chop or bitingly cold, dead-calm fjordlands. Some 300 pounds of soundproofing insulation goes into the pilothouse of these adventure vessels, rendering them…

The salon of the Sunreef 60 Power Eco that I boarded at the 2024 Cannes Yachting Festival has a distinctive design scheme that acted as a foil to the boat’s lofty, eco-conscious raison d’etre. Built for a European tobacco exec, the boat had a cozy and masculine boys-club vibe. One could almost picture Don Draper slouching easily on the portside sofa, lighting a Lucky Strike, while surrounded by black countertops and dark, rich woods. The throwback, alpha-male interior felt somewhat anachronistic given the Eco 60’s bright and optimistic view of the future. The 60 is the second in the Eco line from Gdansk, Poland’s Sunreef, a builder which has cemented itself in recent years as one of the world’s most advanced and enthusiastic builders of environmentally friendly yachts. When the…
