The days are ticking by now - already at Day 4. Today is normally the family day, all the young and budding sailors come out to inspect their dream boats. It is fun on the stand as the kids always have interesting questions to ask! Yesterday was a full day filled with sunshine and rain, giving everyone chance to wear all of their outfits including the foul weather gear! Tomorrow should also be interesting as it is not on a holiday, for the first time I believe. Exciting stuff here in Annapolis! On the stand today we are focusing on Autoprop, our funny looking sailboat propeller. There is nothing funny though about its performance, saving you 25% in fuel - come find out why on tent B1!

The interior is designed for modern living, offering a bright, open-plan saloon and three spacious en-suite cabins. The flybridge and expansive foredeck provide multiple zones for outdoor relaxation, while the efficient hull design ensures a smooth and stable ride. With a range of over 2,500 nautical miles, the Bering 70 is a premier choice for owners who prioritize long-distance capability and cutting-edge design in a manageable owner-operator size. #Bering70 #ExplorerYacht #SteelHull #HarbourMasters
