This 37' (11.27 m) outboard-powered Brazilian mid-size cruiser has three entertaining venues — a forward lounge for three on top of the trunk cabin, two L-shaped settees, port and starboard, with a table under the coupe roof and an extra-large swim platform for launching watersports and grilling. Below, she overnights four.
The Aquador 300HT has isinglass hidden in the port and starboard roof pilasters until it's needed. Then, it can be pulled out and totally surround the aft deck in a jiffy. She sleeps four below and the aft banquette can be turned into a double.
The 46 PC is a more-or-less downsized version of the company’s 53 PC, with similar lines performance. She reached a top speed of 22 knots and a best cruise range of 329 NM at 16.8 knots in our tests. Charter or owner's layouts are available.
A number of brands have production boats in this size range but they come out of molds that can't be changed and the layouts are pretty much fixed. Not so with a Hargrave Custom Yacht. Each hull built in their Turkish yard is built from scratch in a duty-free zone that allows Hargrave — which has always been known for value — a pricing advantage. The result is a custom yacht at a lower price than what we typically see. See our Hargrave 118 Tri-deck video.
The EX 60 is designed for on-the-water entertaining. It features folding terraces complemented by a hydraulic swim platform and customizable aft deck options. Choose from twin 1,200 or 1,350 hp Volvo Penta IPS drives.

The right propellers make all the difference in hole shot, top end and load carrying capacity of any boat/motor combination. Here are some reminders of how pitch, diameter and the number of blades, among other factors, go together to determine performance.
This amazing 455.4’ (138.8 m) Lürssen build has two helicopter pads, an infinity pool and spa and an entire deck reserved for the owner’s accommodation. The hull is steel and the superstructure is aluminum. She is in the top 5% by LOA of private superyachts worldwide.
