Broker Comments
"I remember going aboard the Gunfleet 58 when she was first unveiled at the Düsseldorf show and being blown away by the standard of her finish. Spending two days aboard her did nothing to change that view…when you take into consideration the shoal draft versatility, together with the sparkling performance of this new Gunfleet, she stands out.The 55-60ft luxury cruiser market is the most impressive in terms of choice and quality, from such yards as Oyster, Discovery, Hallberg Rassy, Amel and Contest. But, when you take into consideration the shoal draught versatility together with the sparkling performance of this new Gunfleet, she stands out. I enjoyed helming her more than any other yacht I’ve sailed in this range. Although her geared steering linkage may not be ideal, it’s a centre-cockpit compromise that still gives a feel for her power. Her shallow draught enables her to sail in cruising grounds her size would otherwise prohibit. Gunfleet say she’s the only boat in her class that includes both a lazarette and a sail locker. Gunfleet’s first 43 felt as if she was trying to do too much. But the 58 is more successful and I’ve no doubt this and the proposed 74 will prove popular among the bluewater cruising fraternity." Toby Hodges, Yachting World. Full pdf test report available FOC upon request"This is a powerful sailing yacht that delivers real performance and a rewarding helming experience that will delight the most demanding of yachtsmen. Clean, undistorted hull lines, an upright stem and long waterline, and generous beam carried well aft, all point to an excellent performance profile. Her ballasted shoal draft keel, with deep centreboard, gives her serious upwind potential with the convenience of ultra-shoal draft. The benefits from twin rudders have to be experienced to be believed. The Gunfleet 58 carries virtually no weather helm even when pressed to the wind or when close-reaching with spinnaker with maximum heel. Steering remains finger-light with total control at all times. The absence of helm weight means zero fatigue for helmsman or autopilot." Clean and uncluttered, the deck is easy to move around when sailing. The twin ‘Flightdeck’ helm positions feel secure as they are set down on deck, properly protected, so the helmsman steers from ‘in’, not ‘on’ the boat. There is easy access to the cockpit from the aft deck without a hazardous climb over coachroof or coamings." Gunfleet brochure
