Negative deck planing, hard chines, a two-colour angular superstructure, hull windows: the new Maxus offers modern and fresh competition in the ten metre hull length class. Under the name Maxus 34, the new development in the Maxus line from the Northman shipyard is available with a swivelling ballast centreboard or a hydraulic lifting keel. The rudder blade can also be folded for use in shallow water areas. The rig is also available with a mast-laying device; the boom can remain attached during the process.
As a Maxus 35, the boat comes with a permanently attached L-keel with ballast bomb in two draughts. The sail plan also offers a choice of options. The self-tacking jib is standard; an overlapping genoa for sportier sailing characteristics is available as an option. The large Maxus also has a permanently attached bow nose for sailing with a gennaker or code zero and as an anchor holder. With a width of 3.40 metres, the large Maxus offers a generous interior volume. However, with a weight of 6.2 tonnes already stated by the shipyard, it is no lightweight.
The customer can choose between a layout with two or three cabins. In the two-cabin layout, the wet room is extended by a separate shower room. A wide channel is provided between the aft cabins for the installation of the tanks and technology. Prices start at 114,400 euros.
