On test. VanDutch 40: the new icon of exclusive luxury

Fiart Seawalker 35: small, easy to steer, adrenaline-pumping
The smallest model in Fiart's range, this is a superbly balanced powerboat. The Fiart Seawalker 35 is a very versatile and easy-to-handle boat, a little gem just ten metres long but which, despite its very small size, offers considerable space thanks to its well-proportioned side walkways and a cockpit of just the right size: considering that this is still a registration-free boat, it is a sign that the Campania-based yard's design has been developed with

In these few lines, we would like to deal with this
