O que este vídeo aborda

Maurizio tests the Salona 44, a Croatian-built performance cruiser from the J&J design studio, on a sail out of Salerno in 12–19 knots of true wind.0:17 The hull is full carbon below the waterline and PVC sandwich infusion above, and the boat holds an Ocean A classification.2:31 At 60 degrees apparent with 11–12 knots of true wind, the boat logs 8 knots of boatspeed.2:50 Over three hours of variable conditions, the crew of four or five finds the boat tracks well without broaching; when wind rises above 16–17 knots, they shake in one reef to test response, confirming the boat self-corrects without helm input.5:16 The deep keel is credited with keeping the boat upright and reducing weather helm.4:44 Under engine at 2,500 rpm the boat makes 6 knots; rudder response is clean and propeller walk is minimal, becoming negligible at higher revs.5:57 The helmsman's compass position and the throttle lever height are noted as ergonomic compromises, though neither is called a serious flaw.1:36 First impressions after the sail are strongly positive: good speed, good seakeeping, and manageable helm load.4:08
