Yamarin Cross 62 BR V Max, a boat with a sporty temper

Even though it's an entry-level boat, the Yamarin Cross 62 BR V Max hasn't forgotten about fun. Combined with a 150 hp Yamaha engine, it boasts rather sporty performance. Hang on for this fourth and final part.

When it comes to dynamics, the Cross 62 BR more than lives up to its billing. Approved up to 150 hp, it takes advantage of its lightness and rigidity to deliver rather sporty performance for its class. With the 150 hp Yamaha V Max, we reached 43 knots for a cruising speed of around 30 knots, which isn't bad at all.

Lift-off is pretty quick and the boat takes advantage of its moderate weight to keep planing even at fairly low rpm.

Not content with being fast, the boat is also very rigid, and its hull has an efficient profile on both flat and choppy seas, making it easy to handle without the need for a great deal of nautical experience. At the other end of the scale, the Cross 62 BR can quickly become a lot of fun for the more experienced driver.

Of course it can easily make it with less power, and we can already imagine very decent performance with just 115 hp. What's more, at moderate speeds, between 15 and 20 knots, the boat proves to be both comfortable and economical.

A boat that's not only fun to sail, but also very safe even at 50 mph!

From there, the 62 BR lends itself to a wide range of programs. Ideal for family rides, it can also be used for fishing, with the advantage of ample space aft and forward.
