Corsair 880 review: Fantastic, sporty, trailable trimaran

  • May 22, 2025

Some boat tests are more memorable than others. Sometimes it’s the boat, sometimes the weather and sometimes a combination of the two. When I tested the Corsair 880, it was…

Beneteau First 44 review: Docile herbivore of a boat, or a meat-hungry carnivore?

  • April 17, 2025

Disney princesses may not be the first thing that come to mind when sailing in mid December, but as we stepped aboard, the boat’s stereo was belting out Elsa from…

Beneteau Oceanis 37.1 review: Easy, enjoyable, and forgiving

  • February 25, 2025

The Beneteau Oceanis 37.1 is the latest model in the Beneteau Oceanis range – one of the best-known and recognisable in cruising yachts today. Sixty different models or variations have…

  • January 22, 2025

Nordic Folkboat used boat review: One of the most iconic boats ever designed

Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 350 review: Striking the right balance

  • November 14, 2024

When it comes to building successful cruising yachts, there are few yards that can match the might and scale of Jeanneau. If the number of hulls sold is any measure…

Tradewind 33 used boat review: Ocean crossing credentials

  • October 25, 2024

In a fast-moving world, it’s good to slow down occasionally. Boats are getting lighter, keels deeper, and rigs taller, all in the pursuit of speed. All have a place, but…

Moody DS48 review: We sail this new yacht across the English Channel to see if she has what it takes

  • October 18, 2024

High topsides, muscular bow sections and a formidable deck house make the Moody DS48 an imposing sight, even standing alongside her on the pontoon. Point her bows towards the open…

Dufour 41 review: unashamedly aimed at coastal cruising

  • September 26, 2024

There have always been yachts that claim to offer the best of all worlds. They lure you in with the promise of being able to luxuriate in spacious opulence after…
