New Test! 🎬 The Cruisers Yachts 38 VTR marks a significant design departure for the Oconto-based builder, pairing a contemporary plumb bow with a hybrid stepped hull developed by DLBA Naval Architects. This running surface is specifically engineered for a flatter plane and reduced drag, which we validated during our sea trials. Powered by twin Mercury Verado outboards, the 38 VTR reached a top speed of 44.2 mph and maintained a steady 24.1 mph cruise at 4000 RPM. Beyond the performance data, the NMMA-certified 38 VTR offers substantial versatility through five distinct cockpit layouts and a portside beach door that expands the usable beam at anchor. 🌊 See how the 38 VTR handled in our Boat Test: https://boattest.com/boats/cruisers-yachts/38-vtr-2026B 🔗 [Link in Bio] #cruisersyachts #boattest #cruisers38vtr

A large sailboat approaches a bridge that looks far too low. ⛵ Tight canal 🌉 Inches of clearance 😲 Nervous spectators watching For a moment, it seems impossible. Then the captain threads the boat through perfectly. An incredible sailing challenge captured on camera. #Shorts #Sailing #BridgeChallenge #BoatLife #CloseCall #CanalLife #Maritime #Sailboat
