Grand applause for a builder who has the courage to enter this boat market AND to offer a relatively affordable, relatively large yacht. Hats off to them!

We are using those inland, here in Poland for couple of years now. Pretty good quality even with intensive charter usage - remains untouched for a long time.

As a single man I could quite easily Moor that up in our local marina and live on it full time.. Who needs a house.. Lovely practical interior that does the job..and above all it moves 👍

The cabin area is the best design I’ve ever seen. It’s like a little studio apartment.

Well done Hugo! I agree this is a stunning boat for the price. It’s not trying to be a Fairline or a Princess, it’s just a good honest entry level boat with great features for the money

Simply put, it’s a motorhome for the water. It’s all very functional without being over the top. Great starter boat.

Very nice boat... congratulations

Well I was wasn't sure about the exterior styling (I bet it would look nicer with the covers off) but wow, what an interior for the price! Very impressed. I wouldn't mind seeing one in the flesh and trying it out.

Would love to see a tour of the Suncamper 35 you pointer out, that looks like an interesting choice if you want a fully enclosed boat

Nice little boat - and it seems very much within reach for many people while the x-hundred-thousand boats for the very few.

Outstanding value...consider the price of new cars/trucks/homes today and this is a great alternative!

Great tour of a very good option for a new river/canal/estuary/broads boat. Plenty to like about at the price!

This boat just makes sense.

Cute boat! It was odd seeing a boat like that with an outboard...but she's a nice family boat. The second berth was a surprise. The salon with the large windows was fab! Such a simple helm....really nice though, I share your enthusiasm for simplicity...simplicity is good! Perfect little weekender for a couple or small family. Thanks for the tour!

More content like this. Even this is a pipe dream for most people but it feels achievable and was excellent to watch. Would be very interested in running costs for such a boat.

Hugo I was at FLIBS as a guest of Denison and did my first ever walkthrough video on a Sunseeker Predator Evo 60. You'll have to watch it and give me your opinion. Just remember it's my first one ever

This plastic windscreen is an interesting choice, in combination with a windscreen wiper 😌

@DrCrabfingers Жыл бұрын

The windscreen did look a bit cheap I have to say......but this is certainly a cheap and cheerful boat....the sobering thing as far as I'm concerned is that this boat represents the affordable entry into boating....and I still can't afford it! A bathtub with a reconditioned Seagull outboard is more my reality!

Balt yachts would do well to hire me as a systems design tester. I'd be happy to tool-about all day and provide them feedback.

Very nice accommodation below. The rest is just unimpressive - you lost me at cetegory C. But decent price!

@cbrusharmy Жыл бұрын

That's an awful lot of freeboard for a 27-footer; I can see why there isn't a pilothouse, and no fast speed. I wonder if they didn't just go full displacement because they didn't think they could sell an outboard boat that went 6-7 knots?
