Birchwood TS49, Feeling 446 - Boat International's choice of the best new medium-range yachts; Birchwood's luxurious aft cabin motor-cruiser, and a sparkling sailing performer joining the Feeling range
ON BOARD:
Royal Eagle II - Roger Lean-Vercoe - Camper & Nicholsons' largest commission since Endeavour //in 1936 was launched earlier this year. High performance and cruising comfort are the key features of this 30m cutter
Southern Cross III - Rupert Nelson - Futuristic in both style and construction, the largest carbon-fibre superyacht in the world is a Bannenberg extravaganza, built for larger-than-life Australian entrepreneur Alan Bond
Cover photograph by Eric Vargiolu/DPPI - Class I powerboat Martini Bianco is a 12.3m (40.35ft) aluminium catamaran designed and built by driver Renato Molinari. In the twin-cockpit design Molinari on the far side steers whilst Carl Bodega on the nearside operates the throttles that control the twin 880hp Lamborghini engines - attempting to keep the boat as close to the water as possible and avoiding over-revving on the Arneson surface drives. The catamarans did not fare well in the Atlantic City world championships
