Since its premiere, the Virtue V10 T-Top boat has been garnering more and more positive reviews. This time, French journalists from Bateaux magazine shared their opinion of the model, praising in particular its sporty design and excellent performance and efficiency.

The Virtue V10 is first and foremost a fast, sporty boat, in terms of design belonging to the category of Scandinavian yachts, although it is manufactured in Poland. Thanks to its sporty design and excellent performance, it can successfully compete with racing boats. The V10 is available in two versions: V10 Open (without boat roof) and V10 T-Top (with boat roof).

As the reviewers note, Virtue Yachts is a young brand with passionate sailors on board, and is growing even more with each successive boat. The Virtue V10 has all the latest and most desirable trends: an upturned bow, sporty design, sloping bulwarks, a convertible deck layout for more space for sunbathing and recreation. Even the model name itself reflects the brand’s diverse temperament.

What is clearly highlighted in the review is the innovative hull, using Swedish Petestep technology, designed using the infusion method. Such a patented Petestep hull design reduces friction by 10-30% while increasing acceleration by 30-50%, providing even better performance and reduced fuel consumption. The overall design is V-shaped, which widens towards the stern. With a length of 9.9m, such a designed hull with conventional steps provides even better performance in all phases of sailing: take-off, holding course and after reaching top speed.

The Virtue V10 T-Top is a versatile boat whose canopy includes a helmsman’s station and a recreational area at the stern. As the Bateaux journalists point out, the convertibility of the seats is a huge advantage. The benches can be turned opposite each other, in the direction of travel, or converted into a sunbathing area. In addition, the space can be widened by unfolding the bathing platforms aft.

The Virtue V10 has everything you need for a short getaway: a galley with two fridges, sink and chopping board, as well as a cabin with a double berth and toilet. The space is designed to comfortably accommodate two passengers for a weekend cruise. The model tested is also equipped with two 600 hp engines, providing a top speed of 54 knots and a cruising speed of around 26 knots.
