Combining a strong aluminium hull with a stylish glass fibre deck, the Yamarin Cross 55 BR is a stable, comfortable, multifunctional dayboating-and-fishing package that offers a lot of boat for the money.

From the jury’s statement:
Ease of use, safety and value for money define a good beginners’ boat, and the Yamarin Cross 55 BR was built around exactly that. Its generous beam and hull design make it stable and comfortable even for a nervous first-timer, even in harsher Nordic conditions, while clever, practical details like split-width consoles and huge lockers keep everyday handling simple. The strong aluminium hull and glass fibre deck reflect a builder focused on dependable, low-maintenance construction, and it offers a lot of boat for the money — keeping costs approachable for someone just starting out.
