Protection from wind and weather is very popular in our part of the world. That's why some Finnish shipyards are now offering their multi-purpose day cruisers and fishing boats in the 6 metre range with a fully enclosed deckhouse. And this doesn't just mean a converted steering position, but a real cabin with large windows and comfortable seating for three to four people.
A new addition is the Cross 60 C from Yamarin. Cross stands for the composite construction of a robust aluminium hull and GRP deck, a model series that the Finnish shipyard launched two years ago and added to in 2013 with the open 49 Bow Rider.
The Cross 60 Cabin, which is only 6.05 metres long, is indeed a small space miracle. It is divided into three areas; both the fore and aft sections are easily accessible from the cabin via doors. Both are fitted with solid handrails for a secure grip. There are four upholstered seats inside; a maximum of six people are permitted on board the CE category C boat. The 960 kg glider is propelled by an outboard motor with a power range between 70 and 150 hp.
