New Boat Showcase

2022 September 29

The exciting group of new boats for 2023 has something for everyone. From luxury performance cruisers to zippy midsize racer-cruisers, boat design is evolving to make sailing faster and more comfortable.

DEHLER 46SQ

Putting speed and quality to sea; that’s what the SQ in Dehler’s new designs stands for. This new flagship cruiser was designed by Judel/Vrolijk. The performance cruiser has speed but its innovation continues belowdecks with furniture that moves automatically and a remote-controlled transom that drops to create a bathing platform. www.hanseyachtsag.com

EXCESS 14

It’s a cat that’s out of the box. This sleek-looking 46-footer bucks the trend of towering cabinhouse structures on cruising catamarans, with its lower freeboard and lower boom that reduces windage. Designed in collaboration with ocean racing experts VPLP means its sure to make quick passages. But that doesn’t mean it lacks cruising comforts, with a choice of three- or four-cabin layouts. The saloon is bright with a 360-degree view. www.excess-catamarans.com
