The Bente 28 is a Judel/Vrolijk design that emphasizes the wide, flat bow and the orange hard top. Many thoughtful details on and below deck should please. The open cabin, accessible from the companionway, gives a feeling of space. This cruising yacht with its double rudders will satisfy both family cruising and racing under gennaker.

The Dutch shipyard Bestevaer is known for its aluminum sailing yachts with closed doghouse and cockpit. The Bestevaer 36 S/Y this is the shipyard's smallest model, built with recycled aluminum and PET foam. Thanks to its smaller dimensions, this model can be used in coastal and shallower water than the larger models. Thanks to its retractable centerboard, it is also capable of running aground.

The hull, with a marked aft chine, has been designed by Humphreys Yacht Design and is equipped with double rudders. This new hull offers more space than the previous models and keeps the raised roof which allows it to adopt the "semi-dock saloon".

The new Bavaria C46 offers a lot of space on board with a length of 14.86 meters and a width of 4.7 meters. Thanks to its V-shaped bow, the shipyard optimizes upwind performance but also gains in space below deck. The layout ranges from 5 to 3 cabins, with or without private bathroom. Glazing has been added to the hull to bring in more light than on the smaller models in the C range. The foredeck offers sunbeds and the cockpit has a large bathing platform.

The Jeanneau Yacht 55 is a nearly 17-meter long sailboat with a cockpit worthy of a catamaran. Designed for a clientele of long-distance sailors, this model dedicates 2/3 of its layout to the owner. Thus, there are only three cabins on board. The cockpit also sets it apart from the competition, since it has two saloons with tables that can be converted into huge sunbeds.
