Speaking of boats of the year and all that...

Depressing news, someone making a lot of sense, and how about humiliating your pet in aid of a good cause...

So, Voile magazine seems to think the the new Mojito 888 is the boat of the year. They just might be right.

In a bigger more expensive world it's nice to see someone pointing out that smaller makes sense as well.

What I like about it is that the Mojito is really just a simple boat done well...


I'm still of two minds about the integrated dinghy garage as it uses a hellacious amount of stowage space which, from where I sit, is some kind of problematic in a sub 9-meter boat.

What does impress me is how wonderfully simple and clean translates into a bright livable interior...





For those with some time there are a lot of good ideas floating around this interior.

The downside of this boat is it's price... At about 92,000 Euros ($116,155.52) that's pretty expensive simplicity.

So it goes...
