Bestewind 50
10 / 40 - score 59%
The Bestewind 50 is a 49.11ft fractional sloop designed by Dykstra Naval Architects and built in carbon fiber or composite by KM Yachtbuilders since 2008.
The Bestewind 50 is a light sailboat which is a reasonably good performer. It is reasonably stable / stiff and has an excellent righting capability if capsized. It is best suited as a bluewater cruising boat. The fuel capacity is good. There is a good water supply range.
This boat has an average score but ranks in the top quarter. It seems difficult to do much better. It is one of the best possible tradeoff for this request.
