MONDAY #1

Windy Boats SR38

New Premium Express Walkaround

Windy SR38

In our opinion, the all-new SR38 is one of the most practical, premium-quality, boats to come out of Northern Europe this year. Built under the watchful eye of the company's C-suite means she'll have a pampered build. Options are twin 440-hp diesels, or twin outboard from 400 to 450-hp.  At nearly 60 years old, Windy has one of the highest-status names in Europe.
