Another sterling review by Alex. Reviewing boats while leaving them in their berths IMO is the equivalent of smelling a carefully prepared dish without tasting it. This is one reason a number of Alex's reviews, along with those by Dan Jones on the Dan's BoatLife YT channel, are so valuable.

[@dtutssel]

Agreed. There's a new Windy review on a certain other channel and it's almost pointless cos he never takes them out. It's like reviewing a new car by sitting in the passenger seat.

[@cookiemonster2299]

Always appreciate a Windy vid, this one is superb. 👍❤️🇬🇧

[@sevensixtysteve8662]

Great review !, love the presentation and detail. Seeing the boats in action also fills in the half of the picture that's missing from a lot of boat reviews - good stuff !

[@nicbennett6554]

Superb review again Alex. Great level of detail of a Windy in true Windy fashion.

[@Kim_Jensen]

Great tour Alex 😊 Thank you🙂

[@DavidSmith-nd6pj]

Lovely to c affordable boats

[@JingoLoBa57]

Brilliant design. I want the new T Top Camero

[@prospero4183]

The super mat dash is very nice.

[@clifbradley]

How many times can Alex say 'In true Windy fashion' in one video?😂 nice boat though. In true Windy fashion

[@alexsmith3945]

Happily, I've got a review of the hardtop-equipped 40 Camira RS coming up. That's not in true Windy fashion at all!

[@cookiemonster2299]

4:10 i had to stop and google 'mellifluous', thnx, never heard that word before. ❤️😜👍

[@coalitionperformance5901]

And saying it ‘Al-e-zay’ is how you pronounce the cognac juice drink 90s gangsters drank and rapped about 😂 could imagine one of these in a classic 90s rap tune though !

[@clifbradley]

If you keep,the enfil in that double berth aft, you could just keep the top cushions under it. A.ex was getting tired towards the end of filming I imagine. He needed a Snickers.

[@hildablanco1591]

Its a good boat too go to the island of Capri in Italy

[@Bolek989]

You got some great hair mate

[@hildablanco1591]

Needs a dingy garage instead of a sun pad and a small kitchen and sink out side

[@johansjoberg5751]

It’s still nice and maybe better built than a lot of competitors. But it’s not the same fit/Finnish and premium feel as the older 25 mirage, 28 Ghibli and 34/35 Kamshin etc. less/not as intricate woodwork, more GRP on show etc.. but still very high prices

[@JingoLoBa57]

Can it take a tonneaux cover?

[@JingoLoBa57]

Or is there a covered model?

[@justinsullivan6410]

I'm a little disappointed ,bits of wood covering thruster,funny kitchen,old style pull out cushions,to the fridge motor and roof operation, prefer a finnmaster or flipper
