Maxim Max 44R | A Flagship that Flies
The Max 44R is the new flagship model for Maxim Yachts, with triple 450 hp Yamaha XTO outboards and a reported top speed of 60 knots. The shipyard says this model is the fastest walkaround it has ever built, with features intended for day cruising. There are forward and aft sunbathing areas; a convertible dining space with folding tables and sofas; a carbon-fiber hardtop with a JL Audio sound system; and a helm with two 16-inch Garmin displays. The galley can be outfitted with multiple refrigerators and an ice maker. Belowdecks are two staterooms, one of which converts to a lounge (with space for a third stateroom, too).
Solaris Power 70 | Play All Day
The Solaris Power 70 is largely about its cockpit and teak beach, which, as you can see, take up a sizable amount of real estate. The idea is outdoor living with broad views of the sea, as well as easy water access. There’s more space for outdoor relaxation up top, with additional dining and lounges near the flybridge helm station. (The shipyard says owners can customize this space.) Also note the size of the windows in this design, allowing for broad views from the inside out, as well as lots of natural light coming from the outside in. Top speed is reportedly 25 knots, with multiple Volvo Penta IPS power packages available.
Saxdor 340 GTWA | Speed Racer
A twin-stepped hull form helps the Saxdor 340 GTWA break free from the grip of the sea, putting the knifelike bow to work through the chop while a deep-V hull design—resolving at 21 degrees of transom deadrise—ensures smooth sailing on rough days. This setup, which can be powered by twin outboards for a total horsepower range of 400 to 600, has a top-speed range of 40 to 50 knots. Construction is vacuum-infused fiberglass, which helps create strength without added weight. The pilothouse can be open or closed during inclement weather. A sun pad aft and a lounge forward offer a place for well-earned “you time.”
Riva Cento | Limited Edition
The Riva Cento is a limited-edition model from the design boards of Mauro Micheli and Sergio Beretta, founders of Officina Italiana Design (who know Riva’s renowned style better than just about anyone else on the planet). Specs call for twin Volvo Penta D6 440 Aquamatic Duoprop DPI engines, with a reported top hop of 40 knots and a cruise speed of 31 knots. A Seakeeper NG6 stabilizer is standard equipment for onboard comfort. This is a boat that can handle overnights, with a galley, a head with a separate shower, and a sofa that converts to a double berth. There’s also a skylight forward, adding natural light belowdecks.
