Motor Boat & Yachting March 2019 out now!

In the March 2019 issue we test the Sealine F430, Azimut 55 and Sealegs 9.0m

The March 2019 edition of Motor Boat & Yachting is out now with the usual mix of boat tests, cruising stories and technical features.

The Sealine F430, based on the C430 coupé, offers a bright and spacious main deck with a versatile two or three cabin arrangement below. Powered by IPS pods it also proves to be a comfortable performer out on the water, as Nick Burnham finds out during a route around the Solent.

The Azimut 55 is a flybridge cruiser in an all together rather different mould, its exterior familiar Azimut sweeps and mirrored glazing but inside a curvaceous interior that is to die for.

For those on a more modest budget we get behind the wheel of the flagship of Beneteau’s tough little SUV range, the Barracuda 9 and and take an in-depth look at the Bavaria Sport 28/29/30. If that’s not enough we see what you can get for £20,000 as Nick Burnham is tasked with finding a bargain starter boat.
