Positives: Onyx is a roomy forward-drive cruiser, featuring a full sliding canopy over the driving position and the saloon settee area. Whether the canopy is open or closed, visibility remains excellent, making this boat a top choice for first-timers. Its standout feature is the three separate cabins, each with double or twin beds and an ensuite shower and WC. Additionally, there is ample space for fishing both at the bow and on the stern deck.
Negatives: Bow thrusters would have been useful on such a long boat. Not as up to date as some other Richardsons craft. Be aware that your side view over the reed-fringed banks on forward drive cruisers is limited.
Onyx dimensions: 12.80m x 3.66m (42ft x 12ft)
