Is the Phantom 65 the most practical (and fun) boat in it's class?
James takes his first look at the Fairline Phantom 65 at it's show debut at the 2023 Düsseldorf Boat Show and is blown away.. In this first full tour James looks at the key features of this boat, its speed and the amazing level of detail in the finish of every element of the boat.

A few days after filming the Phantom 65 won the prestigious Motor Boat of the Year award at the Motor Boat & Yachting Awards held at Düsseldorf.
Here is what they had to say:
This may be Fairline’s first attempt at a sportsfly design but you’d never guess it from the way it looks, performs and feels. With those sleek, flowing lines, it strikes the perfect balance between elegance and sportiness, yet somehow still manages to pack in up to four cabins below deck and masses of sociable living space inside and out.
Even the flybridge itself, while compact by Squadron standards, has plenty of secure seating, sunpads and a proper wet bar, as well as a comprehensive outside helm station.
However, all of this would count for little if the driving experience failed to live up to Fairline’s usual high standards. Thankfully, it’s even better than we had anticipated, delivering effortless acceleration up to a top speed of 38 knots, responsive handling and the kind of refined, long-legged cruising that feels perfectly in keeping with that other legendary Phantom built by Rolls-Royce motor cars.
Last but by no means least, those impressive dynamic characteristics are backed up by sound practical thinking, a beautifully finished interior and reassuringly solid build quality.
As we said in our original test, the Phantom 65 really does feel like it offers the best of both worlds with the looks and driving characteristics of a traditional sportscruiser but also the comfort and practicality of a flybridge.
