If you’re looking for fun in the sun, you’ll struggle to do much better than the Windy SR44 Blackhawk.

Sporting superyacht tender styling, acres of deck space and more than 40 knots on tap, this is a fun boat every which way you look at it.

In this video, Nick Burnham shows us around a twin 440hp outdrive version, which was laid up on the hardstanding at Berthon in Lymington, giving us a chance to take a look at the hull and the sterngear.

On board, the cockpit is the star of the show, with a flexible seating area that can switch from dining mode to sunbathing mode with a few quick adjustments.

Being a Windy, the helm station has to be impeccable and with three bucket seats plus two massive flatscreens, not to mention 360-degree visibility, it’s clear that the Windy SR44 will be a lot of fun to drive as well.

Enjoy the tour…
