As part of our look at new boats for 2025, here's a more detailed look at the Broadblue Rapier 400. Broadblues Rapier models offer higher levels of sailing performance, they are lightweight, strong and have powerful carbon rigs. However, these are not stripped out racers - it's designed as a comfortable ocean capable cruiser for families or couples. Perfect for those who want to spend extended time aboard, and importantly, want to travel a bit further when they have the time to go sailing.
