Motor Yachts · Coastal Cruising: YachtCodex lists 548 models, 5.5–24.0 m long. The builders with the most are Beneteau (30), Jeanneau (30), and Sea Ray (30). The largest in production is the wallywhy 150 (24.0 m); the shallowest draft is the Boston Whaler 210 Montauk's (0.38 m).

Motor Yachts

One hull under power, which covers most of what is built: everything from a boat that planes across a bay to a displacement hull that crosses an ocean at eight knots. What separates them is the shape below the waterline and what it is asked to do, and the specifications on each page say which — length, beam, draft, and what the builder published about range and speed.

Coastal Cruising

Boats certified and sized for the coast: CE Category B or C, up to 16 metres for a sailing yacht and up to 24 metres for a motor yacht, racers excluded. Above 24 metres a boat is a crewed yacht under the Large Yacht Code rather than something a family takes out, which is where this list stops. A motor boat that publishes no CE class still counts when its type is a day type -- sport cruiser, day boat, bowrider, centre console, RIB, jet boat, pontoon -- and it is 16 metres or under, because those types are built for the coast by definition.
