At 10 meters in overall length, this is a true inflatable boat with a cruising flair, featuring two powerful outboard motors at the stern. This, in a nutshell, is the design essence of the brand-new Marlin 33 Weekender, the latest creation from the Como-based shipyard, set to make its world premiere at the 66th Genoa International Boat Show (Pavilion B Terreno, Booth DB1).
Measuring 10 meters long, with a total width of 3.33 meters and an interior width of 2.08 meters, the Marlin 33 Weekender focuses primarily on offering spacious and easily reconfigurable living areas.
The deck is designed to adapt to different times of the day: at the stern, the dinette can be converted into a large sun deck, while at the bow—accessible via wide walkways—there is a second sun deck measuring over two meters.
The layout keeps the areas for movement separate from those dedicated to relaxation, thereby improving livability and safety on board. The high gunwale with stainless steel handrails provides additional support while sailing, while the central console allows the helmsman to keep instruments and navigation under control. The pilot’s seat is adjustable, and behind it is a fully equipped service area featuring a sink, countertop, refrigerator, and numerous compartments and storage bins for gear and supplies.
The hull has also been designed to complement the model’s sporty character: it features a deep V-shape with steps and lift skids, engineered to ensure stability and safety while underway.
Below deck, however, the Marlin 33 Weekender truly reveals its true calling. The bright and airy cabin reaches a maximum height of 195 cm and features a double bed that converts into a small internal dinette. The large windows and opening portholes contribute to the brightness and natural ventilation of the space.
Rounding out the interior is a separate bathroom with a toilet, sink, storage cabinet, and shower—features that significantly expand the boat’s versatility, making it suitable even for spending several days at sea.
The Marlin 33 Weekender can accommodate up to 16 people and is rated for a maximum power output of 600 cavalli, offering an attractive balance between comfort and performance.
