<p>Welcome to Series 2, Episode 4 of Boat Nuts, the podcast about all things boaty, brought to you in association with Sleipner.</p><br><p>This week, Hugo and Alex are dockside at Ocean Village Marina in Southampton to explore the latest in marine design and technology.

Under new leadership and a fresh design eye, is this the boat that puts Fairline back on top?</p><br><p>[00:22:18] Tech Talk: Alex puts the Seakeeper Ride system through its paces. Is it just a glorified trim tab, or is this "vessel attitude control" a genuine game-changer for smaller boats?</p><br><p>[00:35:45] The Big Debate: Can you realistically get a family on the water for under £50,000 this summer? The guys hunt for the modern-day "Fletcher" and find some surprising answers—including an £18k boat that looks like a floating pillbox.</p><br><p>[00:49:15] The Used Market: Hugo reveals why some boats are affordable for a reason (starting with a rib called the "Orgasmo") and why the used market might be the ultimate "cheat code" for budget boaters.</p><br><p>Subscribe to stay updated with every new episode as we talk gear, hulls, and the best ways to get afloat!</p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.

AI Collision Avoidance: Can a Computer Save Your Boat (and Your Life)? | Boat Nuts S2 E3
<p>+ Is it a Land Rover Defender or a luxury apartment?</p><br><p>In Episode 3 of our second series, Hugo Andreae and Alex Smith are back on board the voluminous Prestige M48 Power Cat to dive into the world of Italian adventure yachting. We take a deep dive into the Blue Game BGX83—the flagship that tells the world it’s not for everyone. From its invisible hull windows to its sea-level lower saloon, we explore why this boat is a masterclass in breaking the rules.</p><br><p>Supported by <a href="https://www.sleipnergroup.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Sleipner</a></p><p>This series is proudly supported by the engineering masters at Sleipner.

We discuss why this 'not for everyone' flagship is actually a masterclass in modular luxury.</p><p>18:10 – Product Focus: AI-Assisted Navigation. Can SEA.AI and Watchit prevent groundings and whale collisions while you're busy making a cup of tea?</p><p>32:50 – The Big Issue: The Owner’s Cabin. Is the bow the new top spot, or does the midships full-beam cabin still reign supreme?</p><p>45:00 – The Power Cat Revolution: Why spanning the hulls on the Prestige M48 creates a 'duplex' feel you won't find on a monohull.</p><br><p>Get the Full Story</p><p>If you love our weekly chat, you’ll love the magazine even more.

RIBs vs. Sports Boats: The Rise of the "Crossover" Craft
<p>Are you a RIB enthusiast or a Sports Boat purist? </p><br><p>In Episode 2 of our second series, Hugo André and Alex Smith are coming to you from the sun-drenched flybridge of the Prestige M48 Catamaran to discuss the biggest shifts in the boating world. We take a close look at the Beneteau GT50, a boat that ignores the "wedding cake" trend of massive volume to prioritise sexiness, speed, and a connection to the water.</p><br><p><strong>Supported by </strong><a href="https://www.sleipnergroup.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong>Sleipner</strong></a></p><br><p>This episode is proudly supported by Sleipner, the Norwegian masters of marine technology. Handling a beamy powerboat in a nasty swell is a different world when you have the right gear. Hugo and Alex discuss the transformative power of Sleipner’s Vector Fin stabilisers—a system so quiet and effective that even a "soft-bottomed" sailor can stand on the flybridge in a Norwegian snowstorm without missing a beat.</p><br><p><strong>In This Episode:</strong></p><br><p>03:00 – Boat of the Week: The Beneteau GT50. Is this lower, leaner profile the future of sports cruisers?</p><p>17:30 – Product Focus: The Stabiliser Showdown. We break down the pros and cons of Gyros vs. Fins.</p><p>25:15 – The Vector Effect: Why curved fins create lift and eliminate that annoying "sway" at anchor.</p><p>34:00 – Marine Witchcraft: Alex tries to explain the "Magnus Effect" (using tennis balls and cannonballs).</p><p>37:10 – The Big Issue: RIBs vs. Sports Boats. Can a "Crossover" boat like the Highfield ADV-7 or Iron Boats truly offer the best of both worlds?</p><br><p>Get the Full Story</p><br><p>If you love our weekly chat, you’ll love the magazine even more.
