After a rather unsuccessful start, the German-based brand Slyder Yachts has now completed its first production boat. The cats are built in Qingdao (China). The concept: a sporty basic design with low weight, slim hulls, a powerful rig and asymmetrical centreboards. When it comes to the interior, however, the Slyder 49 offers a whole host of comfortable cosiness. However, the shipyard will still have to work on the quality of the details.

The comprehensive test of the new Slyder 49 is part of the large multihull special in YACHT, issue no. 9/2019. The magazine is available in the DK shop, or you can download the test directly via the link below.
