Sailpages Buyer's Take

The Boréal 44.2 is a modern cruising yacht designed by Jean-François Delvoye and built by Boréal in France, with production starting in 2020. As a relatively new entry in the market, the specific total hull count remains unconfirmed, but it represents the builder's latest iteration of their performance-oriented cruising designs.

Best for:
This boat is well-suited for coastal cruisers and short-to-medium offshore passages who value a comfortable, stable ride provided by its high comfort ratio of 30.17. The cutter rig configuration offers versatility for single-handers or couples seeking manageable sail handling.
Bluewater capability:
With a displacement of 29211.25 lb and a low capsize ratio of 1.87, the Boréal 44.2 demonstrates strong inherent stability and seaworthiness suitable for extended offshore passages. Its full/long keel design further enhances tracking and safety in heavy weather conditions.
Comparables:
Comparable boats include the Beneteau Oceanis 46.1 and the Hallberg-Rassy 442, as they share similar displacement ranges and target the same market of serious cruisers seeking a balance of performance and liveability. The Boréal 44.2 distinguishes itself with a more traditional, robust hull form compared to the lighter, planing-oriented designs of some competitors.
