    The 25 Meter SWATH yacht is capable of doing about 18 kts. But at that speed she will make it barely around the courner (no range :)). Cloudbreak is growing on me. But her spec cruise speed is only 14 to 15 Kts too.

    "Elandess" was sold quickly after roughly 3 months on the market!

    Kibo on a roll cuts a beautiful swath through the ripples on the Weser höhe Brake Unterweser nach Gibraltar!

    Actually these 25m-SWATH-boats boats are quite a multi-purpose-design. The Latvian Navy for example uses some of them as multi-purpose coast guard patrol boats. But I´d guess their interiour is a little more on the simple side...

    She's been like that for a couple of years now.

    Oh Sorry, I somehow though she was asking more before.

    Cloudbreak has been featured in a magazine with full interior shots and layouts (available outside the magazine as well). She's quite nice and I like her interior. That name is also one of my favorites. Exterior isn't my number one pick but is quite nice.

    Yep. Looks like having a guest corridor through the ER is becoming a trend.

    I remember seeing that they were looking into a new one and trying to keep with the latest trends so this makes sense.

    I thought Excellence V was designed to stay within the 60m limit imposed by some marinas. I guess the successor will have to anchor way out there.
