By now, life aboard a sailboat, especially when cruising, has reached levels of comfort and convenience comparable to (if not higher than) what we are used to at home. This is possible thanks to increasingly advanced on-board systems. From fresh water treatment to heating and air conditioning systems, every detail is designed to improve livability, not only during long crossings. The latest technological innovations in watermakers, ventilation and heating systems, together with solutions to manage and optimize energy resources, make it possible to bring that level of well-being to the boat that was once unthinkable.
This is the sixth installment. In the next articles, we will reveal all the news of 2025 from the world of accessories. Find the other episodes here:
