With the 93 metre long "Lady S" and the 95 metre Lürssen "Madsummer", we present two large formats that could not be more different despite their similar length. One of the two charter giants even offers the only floating private IMAX cinema in the world.
Many of our readers are active members of the maxi class and are enthusiastic about sailing on racy large-format boats. Our author Svante Domizlaff spoke to the Secretary General of the International Maxi Association, Andrew McIrvine, about the consequences for maxi sailing in times of the Covid-19 pandemic.
BOOTE EXCLUSIV 4/2020 will be available in well-stocked newsagents from 1 July. If not, you can order the current or missed issues conveniently and free of shipping costs throughout Germany here in the online shop.
