The stars of the 2010 PSP Southampton Boat Show

Greenline 33 Hybrid Berth M130 - Greenline 33 Hybrid The worlds first mass-produced hybrid-powered boat has caused quite a stir since we tested it in our June issue but this is the first chance to see it at a UK show. Exceptional fuel economy from its solar-assisted diesel/electric engine and a starting price of less than £100,000 for this comfortable five-berth cruiser will keep interest sky high. Sealine F42 Berth M001 - Sealine F42 The big surprise of the show and a must-see boat for any flybridge owner. We bagged a quick spin prior to the show on a choppy day and were blown away by how well it performed check out our video . Masses of space inside and out, excellent stowage, a wonderfully light interior and near sportsboat levels of ride and handling make this a real contender to Fairlines new Squadron 42. Fairline Squadron 42 Berth 168 - Fairline Squadron 42 Fairlines new entry-level flybridge gets the Squadron name for the first time and with good reason. The fit and finish is exemplary and Fairlines reputation for producing fine handling hulls remains intact despite the impressive amount of accommodation packed into it. Read our full report in the November issue of MBY (out 7 October). Sunseeker Manhattan 63 Stand C006 - Sunseeker Manhattan 63 A visit to the Sunseeker stand is a must at any boat show and this time around the new 63 Manhattan flybridge is likely to be the star attraction. The massive saloon, full-beam master cabin and Starship Enterprise helm position will have you reaching for your lottery ticket with renewed excitement. Princess V52 Berth M157 - Princess V52 The Princess 62 bowled us over last year with its sublime mix of performance, handling and accommodation. This new 52 has the same open aft cockpit and enclosed deck saloon which work so well on its bigger sister but at a much more affordable price. Rodman Spirit 31 Berth M012 - Rodman Spirit 31 Another fascinating new boat which can sleep up to six people in a solidly built and very capable looking hull. The sliding semi-circular transom seats are bound to be a star attraction, as is the price of £114,000 inc VAT. Beneteau Flyer Gran Turismo 38 Stand F16 - Beneteau Flyer Gran Turismo 38 We havent seen it in the flesh but if its half as good as its big sister, the Monte Carlo 42, which we reviewed in our September issue , it should be a corker. A neat hard top, two good cabins and a better finish than youd expect at this price level. Bavaria Sport HT 38 Berth M365 - Bavaria Sport HT 38 Another fine value offering from this revitalised German yard that promises exceptional levels of space below decks, as well as a protected cockpit and a swift, sporty hull. Marex 370 ACC Berth M227 - Marex 370 ACC The prettiest aft-cabin cruiser weve ever seen and one of the very best thanks to a supremely capable and surprisingly fuel-efficient hull. A highly motivated UK dealer and a much improved starting price should win it the sales to match its accolades. See our video . Windy 40 Maestro Berth M111 - Windy 40 Maestro The best new Windy in years thanks to sensational 43-knot performance and a typically solid but slippery hull. Some of the best detailing youll see on any 40-footer ( see our video ) and a helm position to die for complete the picture.
