Hello Boater
Aiata Wayfinder 38
A Swiss Army Vessel
BOW SEATS EIGHT Here's a boat with a story: designed in Finland, but built in Turkey, the Aiata Wayfinder 38 has another feature that stands out. Her bow lounge is massive, with a high-low table and seating that can fit up to eight friends. The whole area drops down to create a sunbed that’s bigger than some living room couches.
1600-MILE RANGE Breaking from the industry's race for high top speeds, the Greenline 58 Fly is a semi-displacement vessel with a different philosophy. Her hybrid propulsion system allows her to travel over 1,600 nautical miles on a single tank—an impressive range for a boat her size.
CABIN CRUISER The 2021 Axopar 28 cabin model "Bust it Big" is powered by a single Mercury Verado 300 outboard engine with 190 hours. This boat features a weather-protected pilot house, a head, and a cockpit wet bar with refrigeration, a sink, and storage. The pilot house is equipped with twin Garmin touchscreen MFDs.

The Rules of the Road state that a sailing vessel with her engine engaged is to be considered a power-driven vessel. This is a crucial rule for collision avoidance, as a power-driven vessel has less right of way and must give way to a sailing vessel unless the sailing vessel is using her engine.
