What this video covers
The Elan Marine 410 is the first model in a new fast-cruiser series from the Slovenian yard, designed by Roba Amfris.▶ 0:00 The hull uses the yard's patented vacuum-lamination system to maximise the stiffness-to-weight ratio.▶ 0:00 Fine bow sections, a rearward maximum beam, and pronounced stern flare define the hull shape, prioritising sailing performance over interior volume.▶ 0:51 The long coachroof integrates cleanly with the freeboard, and the foredeck is kept clear for racing and casual summer use.▶ 0:51 The cockpit splits around a large steering wheel, with the mainsheet traveller forward of the helm column; stowage runs to anchor lockers, bench compartments, cockpit coaming lockers, and under the helm deck.▶ 0:51 Halyards and topping lifts route through dedicated channels under the coachroof to the cockpit.▶ 1:50 Six standard winches — four in the cockpit, two on the coachroof — handle sail control.▶ 1:50 The standard aluminium Selden mast carries over 100 square metres of sail area; a carbon mast is available as an option.▶ 2:47 Sea-trial conditions were light, but the boat accelerated sharply in every puff and tacked cleanly, confirming its potential as a competitive club racer.▶ 2:48
