The question most asked of a boat tester is: and you? Which boat would you leave in?
A difficult question, if ever there was one. The proof is with the selection which follows. The hardest thing has been to get all the members of the editorial team to agree on the choice of 10 new and 10 second-hand boats in which to set off. A sometimes impossible choice, especially as we voluntarily limited ourselves to boats – catamarans or trimarans – of between 40 and 50 feet.
But never forget that, as our favorite chief editor regularly repeats, the right boat is the one you leave in!
Finally, remember that the choice of a boat which is to become your home and transport your family, is above all, personal. Read and re-read our full tests and don’t hesitate to call the team to discuss… We love that…
Good luck with your choice.
