New Boats for 2016

2015 August 17

SAILING's editors roundup the best new boats you'll see at boat shows this year

 

Alerion Sport 30

US Watercraft’s Alerion series is inspired by Nathanael Herreshoff’s personal boat, Alerion. In the spirit of Herreshoff, a speed innovator, the classic-looking Alerion Sport 30 has an optional carbon fiber bowsprit to fly an asymmetrical spinnaker and a carbon mast. The rugged-but-light hull is made from carbon-reinforced structural grid and vinylester-infused hull with foam core. Those are the details behind a long cockpit and self-tacking jib, making the 30 Sport a spicy, spacious weekender. LOA 30’1”; Beam 8’9”; Draft 5’; Displ. 6,424 lbs.; Sail area 465 sq. ft., www.alerionyachts.com. Price: $199,500
