Jaguar J32 Test: 69.8 MPH WOT | Yamaha SX195 | Fountaine Pajot MY 44
How fast do you want to get to the fish? Twin 250-hp Evinrude E-TEC G2s will take you offshore at nearly 70 mph in the Jaguar J32, an offshore racing cat that can be outfitted as an offshore fisherman, dive boat or very fast day cruiser. Cruising speed was 45.3 mph, yet fuel efficiency with the two-strokes was 1.9 mpg in total.
The Fountaine Pajot MY 44 has amazing amount of living space in her 44' (13.40 m) LOA thanks to the 21'7" (6.61 m) beam. She has a variety of social spaces spread over those wide decks, not to mention some innovative accommodations.
Powered with Yamaha's 1.8-liter Super Vortex High Output supercharged jet system, the Yamaha SX195 is strong on performance, with 0 to 30 mph times under 6 seconds and a top speed of 52.3 mph. The sound reduction engine box keeps noise levels lower in the cockpit, and she offers comfortable seating for eight.
The Cruisers Yachts 45 Cantius takes maximum advantage of interior spaces through inventive design. Case in point: The mid-cabin features a queen berth and a double-wide recliner for TV watching that can be made into an added berth.
The TRACKER® Targa™ V19 WT is a tough, all-welded multi-species fishing machine with four swivel seats, three of which can be moved to the bow or stern casting platforms as needed. Rigged with a 225-hp Mercury Pro XS, she had a top speed of 53.5 mph.
