EDITORIAL

How things change. Two years ago, bar the occasional high-end

RIB or superyacht tender, you could have counted the number

of British yards building genuine performance boats on the

fi ngers of one foot. Today, there are at least half a dozen new

examples in build or in development, including craft from

all three of the UK’s biggest production yards.

What’s so exciting about the new generation of British

sportsboats is that they all offer something completely

different. The Fairline F-Type 33 marries cutting-edge

looks with a wide range of engines covering everything

from a pair of economical twin diesels to fi re-breathing

V8 petrols on sports exhausts. The Princess R35 takes things

to another level with an all-carbon-fi bre hull and active foiling

technology that resets the bar for ride comfort while rearranging

your internal organs with its cornering speeds. Then there’s Ice

Marine’s Bladerunner 45 with its brilliant stabilised monohull

design and triple D6 engines that add serious cruising range

and refi nement to the mix. And let’s not forget the exquisite

style, fi nish and brand appeal of the Aston Martin AM37,

nor the rakish design of Hunton’s hotly anticipated new 55.

That just leaves one notable exception – Sunseeker. We know

it has given the green light to a new generation of performance

craft designed in conjunction with Red Bull Technology but

other than that, the project remains shrouded in mystery. One

thing’s for certain though – with rivals as good as these, they’ll

need to come up with something pretty damned exceptional

to get a look in. We can hardly wait!
