Yamarin Cross 64 Bow Rider: Meet the fast, new kid on the block
The fast Yamarin Cross 64 Bow Rider is the new entrant in the aluminium-hulled Yamarin Cross range for the 2015 season. This boat’s new colouring and shape fits perfectly with the style of the sporty Yamarin Cross 75 Bow Rider. The new 64 BR is an all-round boat, suitable for day trips and fishing and can also be used as a tender. Every detail of its design takes greater account of practicality and functionality, combined with a good runnability which guarantees safe and versatile boating pleasure in all conditions and for every taste. The boat is designed to carry 8 persons. Engine recommendation 115-150 HP.
In the new Yamarin Cross 64 BR, the focus is on design and ease of movement from bow to stern. The new bow shape makes it easier to step in to the boat, together with higher rails will keep you safe while moving around. The boat includes a comfortable L-shaped couch with a backrest at the bow, and a box that can be removed when necessary – during fishing, for example. A practical set of steps on starboard and port side provides easy movement while the boat is in dock.
The Yamarin Cross 64 BR has a very sturdy windscreen. Long side screens and the windscreen’s more upright position provides extra protection from the wind. The result in overall provides more wind protection for every passenger in the open space at the rear, than Bow Rider boats normally do.
Offshore seats for the driver and co-driver provide good lateral and upper-back support. Extra stuffing has been added to the seats for higher comfort. On deck, the inner board has built-in, practical stands for fenders, placed where they can easily be used.
The Yamarin Cross 64 Bow Rider has a reserved mounting spot for a fixed chart plotter with a 9” screen.
The open space in the back is crowned by a six-person U-couch with a sturdy and comfortable backrest. If you need more space for moving around in the rear of the boat, just fold down the starboard side of the U-couch. In addition, the U-coach easily converts into a sun bed.
An interesting feature of the boat is its Abloy locking system, that is only available for Yamarin. All locks (5 in total) are opened with one single key; you can use the same key to lock the five storage spaces on the boat. Each lock has both a daily use and locking mode. The boat also has a roomy, lockable glove compartment and space for a cooler.
Yamarin Cross boats are made of 5083 aluminium, which is 30% stronger than the 5754 aluminium normally used in leisure boats, and more resistant to corrosion. The new structure also minimises the amount of hull noise.
The aluminium-hulled Yamarin Cross model range was launched in the fall of 2010, for the 2011 season. For the 2014 season, this range includes eight models. The Ähtäri-based Campnou Oy manufactures the hulls, while Fenix Marin Oy in Valkeakoski handles deck manufacture and assembly. Yamarin Cross is a trademark of Konekesko Oy. Yamarin Cross boats have been granted the Finnish Avainlippu label of origin.
