- Trendsetter is a word that comes to mind when I stepped aboard the Four Winns TH36. This is a style of boat that will provide so much extra value when compared to a monohull that I believe many families will look to new designs like this in the future.
From an absolute boat load of deck space, to the double cabins with ensuite and separate showers, and the low fuel consumption and rough water handling ability, this is a design that will open up new horizons, and allow you to experience new destinations and places you had never considered visiting in your last boat.
For a brand that has positioned themselves in the premium sports boat market for the last 60yrs it takes some guts to break the mould like this. They didn't just break it the smashed it to pieces and made something super cool.
Let me know what you think and enjoy!

Best cat I’ve seen for cruising and multiple day trips
It’s a beautiful boat I haven’t even thought of a cat but I will now absolutely gorgeous
As people are starting to mention, the ability to enclose may come in to play if it’s not already a planned option. Even though we are down here in Southwest Florida,the winters can get a little chilly, and complete protection while anchored during rainstorms is important. Even with some of the minuses compared to the Aquila, this has gone to top of my list.
You are right on point with what I was instantly thinking. This boat has massive appeal and in fact, I was dreaming about it last night. I had seen these two BoatLife videos profiling the TH36 and here I am the morning after exploring them even more and comparing it to the Aquilla 36 which has the enclosed salon option. That boat has everything but this Four Winns is so beautiful it has me hooked. Do you marry the delightful brunette Doctor or the hot blond Vegas showgirl. I know that in the long run one is a much better choice than the other for what my needs are. After seeing the blue hull and sexy lines of the TH36 the Aquilla looks nerdy and the beige fabrics call to mind the Harvest Gold and Orange appliances and countertops of the 1970's.
The Aquilla even has a hydrofoil option. Another thing I noticed is how Four Winns nicklee and dimes you to death for their must have options. First of all it is a 36ft boat (though a cat) with a base price of about $750,000 dollars but little things like the tiny drawer fridge in the bow area is like $2,200. A couple of underwater lights is $8,000. Air Conditioning is a $21,000 dollar option and the couple of DC powered little fans are almost $700 dollars. I don't begrudge a company making a hefty profit especially when they did such an excellent job but an $800,000 36 ft boat ought to be able to include a couple of little fans. And Windshield wipers are not even included and is a $2,000+ option.
Even after all this complaining I know I am going to be dreaming about this sexy boat for days though I know that the Aquilla 36 with an air conditioned salon and with a few colorful added accents would be a better boat for my needs in South Florida.
It's good to see you sampling the boating scene down in South Florida, Dan. You no doubt now can imagine how different the Northeast and South Florida boating scenes can be, which will come in handy when reviewing future boats. Lucky for us!
Great looking boat. Thank you for the tour.
Lovely. I. WILL own this vessel one day soon! Thank you, Dan, for the introduction. Blessins...
One of the best boat reviews I’ve seen!!
I love everything about this boat.
Clever use of space.
Exceptional design.
"aaaaand that upholstery is hot on my feet" without missing a beat!!
Like burning hot haha… but it was a stinker of a day
This is a gorgeous boat and well suited to warmer locations, however, the Aquila 36 is better suited to Northern Europe as it is available fully enclosed. Great vid as usual Dan, thanks.
The Aquila does not have a wave breaker. That’s a dealbreaker if you’ve ever owned a cat. Trust me, no wave breaker equals Terrible hull slap and unwanted spray.
Love seeing you here. That boat has pretty much everything you need. Love motor cats ❤️
Thanks! I feel very welcome here. She really does cater to a lot of people I think
Mate your reviews are ace Dan love that boat
Thanks Mark. She's a real winner for a lot of people I reckon.
amazing design 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Dan, nice work. I appreciate your reviews. Welcome to the US!
It reminds me a lot of the Aquila 32 and 36
Such a great idea
A the owner of an older Four Winns Vista 268 Cruiser, I am drooling over this boat. Thanks for the walkthrough.
She's worthy of the drool haha... The 268 Vista was a cracker, i've driven many. Cheers
Thanks for nice tour Dan. This 4 Winns power cat competes directly with the Aquila 36 catamaran. Fairly similar, pluses and minuses for both. I wonder if you can specify a full-height windshield for the 4 Winns cat?
Aladdin would love it. The Magic Carpet, great description and review.
Thanks John!
Beautiful
I like it! Good to see a competitor to Aquila..
This baby belongs on Sydney Harbour or cruising out the heads to the Haweksberry for a weekend camp!
OMG 100%! Yes you would be so happy doing that style of weekend boating on this.
Really love this boat. Welcome to America!
Thanks! Enjoying it so much i've extended my stay.
You've got to come home sometime though.@@BoatLife_DansBoatLife
An interesting boat, a pity that here in Europe, the extra width will, in many marinas, need a wider berth which will be a longer berth and thus a size up. In my loacal marina this will be €19,071 / year more expensive. 😲 Captain John
Awesome living area
Beauty.
10 points for the dive!
Dan an awesome video. When will these be available down under in Sydney? A comparison video with Aquila would be another great video.
Yes I'd like to compare this with an Aquila. MW Marine will be representing this boat in Sydney so you could ask them if they have any stock coming to Aus?
Impressive
Awesome
Quite a nice boat for around $900k (on the Four Winns site builder). As some others have mentioned, it would be very nice to be able to totally enclose the helm/galley area, or at least 3 sides. That and the foiling give the Aquila 36 a slight edge.
900k is almost ridiculous considering the almost half price for Aquilla 36. I understand they're trying to stand out with a bit more lux innovation and fuel economy but there's really no justification for almost a mill
@@kokoyaro There are few boats that are priced for the average Joe. Unless you want an aluminum Bass boat, canoe or kayak.
@@michiganengineer8621 Here we go. In your view the $480k Aquilla 36 is a kayak for average joes?
@@kokoyaro Not what I said. None of the boats, or damned few of them anyway, that are reviewed here on YT fall into the "avg. Joe" category. Hell, the Aquila (that we both apparently like), is more than 8x what I paid for the house I live in.
@@michiganengineer8621 That means you took me out of context with your canoe statement and that your mindset is the excuse these companies use to rip-off their customers with exorbitant pricing. I made a down payment for an entry level $480k Aquilla 36 (not the sport) and that was before I learned I could get it for less than $300k if I took the trouble to go directly to their factory in China. Anyway, I estimate that after I'm done with customizing, the total cost will stay below 550k.
And here you have a FourWinns TH36 for almost double that price yet less in performance and design with an inferior half enclosed cockpit that ignores the frustrating possibility of unforseen weather. I'd rather they went with a cheaper convertible canopy than giving customers zero option in sudden rain.
Back in the day people would say the high pricing is for prestige because the boats were made right here in the US unlike others like Aquilla made in China. But that argument doesn't stand today because since Beneteau took over about a decade ago, they cut down production cost and more than 80% of the boat is also coming from China. I live in Michigan, their factory here devolved to nothing more than an assembly plant.
Anyone who dares to spend $900k on this boat is ill-informed. They could top-up a little more to get the Aquilla 44 instead. Being rich doesn't mean one shouldn't expect/demand reasonable prices. That's all I'm saying
Love this boat… one of nicest you’ve shown in quite a while. How’s pricing look?
Reckon she's an amazing boat. Always loved Four Winns and what they do compared ro GraDy White and Boston Whaler. They were finished well and were some great boats but likemyou said, had limitations.
The top looks like it would direct all the rain right on top of those inside.
I like the design. Well done.
Of course as with all new boats a $730k MSRP is a whole lot.
Cheers!
That is a nice size shower. I wonder if they can also make it into a sauna. LOL
gimme an full height windscreen option and I'm there. This thing is very cool!
Yes I was wondering who might be interested in that. Thanks for the feedback
Dan, nice work. I appreciate your videos. Welcome to the US. . .BTW. . .no speedos allowed.
Budgie Smugglers.. they are designed to offend even more than Speedo's haha... thanks!
Hopefully later my dream can be achieved to have a boat that will go fishing and that will be very fun
I hope you make it happen! Boats are the best dreams in my opinion!
Welcome to SoFla Dan..
Its a nice boat for 2 people that want to live aboard and have a spare bed for visitors nice but it also needs a frèezer same size as the fridge mabe that can be done i hope , the second head and shower hmm wasting space i recon the second one probably wont get used much and use that space for something else live aboards rarely have visitors if so they can use the main one , and use the extra space , and a couple off diesel out boards on back would be nice they dont have to be big 2 smaller diesels would be fine , better fuel economy and the tanks will hook straight up to the diesel heater 👍
Love it. Kind of an Aquila clone but done better. What I can’t understand is why they fail to put on a front ladder considering the number of people that take the same orientation to shore.
Yes I would also offer that as an option as there is loads of storage in the front lockers so you could make a very luxury ladder that stows away. But... it would also be easy to back it into the beach... I was going to show you both angles but it got so busy at the beach we would have lost our spot.
Two smaller diesel outboards will give you more reliability and better fuel economy , and piss off the second shower and toilet head will create more liveable room , its the perfect boat for two people living abroad its their home , and the extra room made could include a freezer same size off the fridge and other stuff
I agree.
Hmm good point about making the layout more ‘owner focused’. I’ll tell Four Winns
Another great video maté fantastic looking boat but how much does it cost ?
I think around $800k with options but best to ask your local dealer.
That’s simply an amazing boat. I had a 35 Chris Craft, and the increased deck space that Cat offers can’t be overstated.
Agree 100%. The deck space on this cat is like what you would achieve on a 40+ft boat. It gives you a lot of options.
Dan your in my home town, welcome or as the Cubans will say Bienvenidos, will you be in town for the Ft. Lauderdale boat show?
Thanks! What a cool place! I wasn't expecting to hear so many people speaking Spanish it's quite cool! I'll try using Bienvenidos when I get an opportunity. Lot's of people don't understand my accent so that might help haha
What's the thinking behind not enclosing the cockpit? For this price you could make it convertible with a canopy instead of exposing your customers to the inconveniences of unforeseen weather conditions
Hi Dan. Lovely looking boat and a great review. (prob wants the bigger donks) ..... but..... where's the white linen suit and loafers? Surely you can find a friendly and obliging local to lend you a Scarab 38KV .... :)
I would totally get the white linnen and loafers going just to fit in haha
She is a sexy boat indeed…My heart is torn between this and the Aquila 36 which also comes with the foil and that is a big plus on performance and better fuel economy. But I am sure that those can be had on this boat too !!!
Test them both perhaps? I have only driven the Aquila Molokai range which I was impressed with. Four Winns have some exciting stuff coming out with cats this year so get onboard both boats and see what you think. As soon as I get an opportunity to film a Aquila 36 i'll post it.
A party boat version of the old Glacier Bay 3870
I love the design - it's truly a pleasure craft. Would this qualify as a "weekender"...? it is amazing that a bowrider has two cabins and two bathrooms. Can this boat make the crossing to Bimini?
If You have to ask, this boat is wasted on you.
@@oceanairbrush i asked not one, but TWO questions!!! which question makes this boat wasted on me?
@@ronen160 technically both. A weekender is any boat with sufficient living quarters as to comfortably support two people for a weekend.
As far as making the crossing. If you don't understand boats well enough to know what will or will not make the crossing, you probably shouldn't be out there.
@@oceanairbrush i always thought that a weekender was a boat that had enough power storage, or generator, to run heat or a/c through the weekend and was able to be self-sufficient (off-grid?) for an entire weekend, with no reliance on shore power, potable water, etc.
@@oceanairbrush as far as the crossing: i have never done so in a 'personal' pleasure boat, so I agree with you. If i were to do so, I'd have to go with a group
I would like some kind of sturdy bow ladder to get off the front of the boat to get on the beach if I didn't feel like getting wet.
Yes I agree. Although you can put the sterns on the beach if you know what you're doing. I was going to do that for the video but the beach got too busy so we had to keep our spot. The bow lockers are the perfect storage spot for a sturdy bow ladder.
Interesting design. Definitely a great party boat, but if it is going to be an economical longer distance cruiser, you would want much smaller engines.
Yes or just drive slower depending on the distances you wish to cover.
Nice boat. Would prefer larger cabin instead of all th espace upfront on deck.
Interesting feedback. I wonder if they could take this hull as the basis for a "Cruising Version" and do as you suggest with the cabin and maybe enclosed glass windscreen? I reckon that might be appealing to some?
Even before you spoke and I’ve I don’t believe seen before, I’m like that’s Aussie all the way.
I'm Aussie yes but we're in Miami!
@@BoatLife_DansBoatLife I was referring to the boat. I’ve seen that layout there more than in the US.
I would like to see this design as a pilot house boat I personally do Not like bow riders not good for bad weather or high seas.
Crazy price
She's a beauty mate, so much room, no dedicated galley?.
On deck galley to port. But I reckon many would swap out the hot plate and stick a barbie in there instead.
@@BoatLife_DansBoatLife Cheers mate.
Cute
I love it.❤️. How much?

We don't do mankinis in miami maby Raul and Julio do but that's it lol
Dan i see some boats on other channels then i always check your channel for the reviews of the same boat...noone does it like you, been following your reviews since you did the nimbus t11 😊
Love the boat looks like it’s something great for the weekend but how it’s powered it’s not gonna be too efficient. Those twin mercury’s are gonna suck down the gallons. Hopefully it has very large fuel tanks. Would be interesting to see some thing. More fuel efficient with the same design.
Catamarans tend to be extremely efficient. Fuel-wise. Most likely this would do way better than a similar size. Monohull
Memorial Island?? 🤔 - Monument Island! ⚓
I dunno? Google said Memorial..?
Mate, I can never unsee at 10:52. Why?
bahaha... it was about 36C that day so the budgie smugglers to the rescue
@@BoatLife_DansBoatLife 😆😆😆😆 budgies fit lifestyle in Miami. Too funny. Great review.
Cool power cat but kind of a waste of space with 2nd shower should be storage or other usage for that space.
I guess you could do a cruising version with extra storage. But i'm sure any guests would appreciate the extra shower and the two bow lockers are already absolutely huge. Like I can stand in them.
I would like to see a windscreen that drops out of the roof instead of dealing with Isinglass. . .
i want buy this boat.. how much the price?
So I put pricing in the description below the video. It's important to find your local dealer as the price depends on where you are in the world due to shipping, taxes etc, etc.
This boat is probably great for family trips and hosting friends. A little too big for fishing and water sports.
Spot on!
Is this boat still for sale?
😂😂😂😂 what's wrong with you
@@sanynava Lol, the price starts at $750,000.
How tall is this guy?
I like it but it needs to have an completely enclosed saloon and a flybridge with a visor on top. The bathrooms are unnecessarily large, especially the showers. Cut the shower enclosure in half and put the toilet next to it, and mount the sink on the wall above it. With the bathroom half the size, it makes room for some other use with the new area. OR, get rid of the other bathroom and use the space as a proper galley, as I have seen in some larger catamaran videos, and the area at the hull tip would provide more storage space. What's going on with the area behind the bathroom walls at the hull front tips? Larger catamarans have storage areas in the front tips where fenders, rope, etc. are stored. I've even seen that space used as a very basic berth/room/office.
Check out the aquila 36. Better in every way
A PONTOON BOAT ❤❤❤😂😂 ON STERIODS. LMAO.
Haha yes
I could not afford one of the engines lol 😂
Same lol
why is one engine marked with hp and one isn't? Killiing my ocd lol
Haha I can't answer that, i'm not sure?
I would rather buy an Aquila 42.
The Aquila 36 does it better with a hydrofoil for half the cost. nice try though 4 winds.
I’d like to have a go with that Aquila. I love their Molokai range. Chinese builders are really bringing the competition to the West now. I’m going to start exploring China to see what else I can learn.
Did that Aussie just say a foot and a half instead of a half a meter?
Starts at 730k.
Built in Tanzania. 🤔. Only time will tell if the build quality is awful. Personally I’m ordering a Sea Ray. Built in the US using good quality hardware and with a proven track record for the (half million) money.
Where is Tanzania? Yes you can't knock American build quality and Sea Ray does a superb job. I guess Four Winns needs to take a few risks with something so different like this so yes time will tell.
And it can be yours for 7000 easy payments of $199.99.
Haha…. Best comment of the week 😂😅😂
Aussie ?
Yes 👍
If I am ever in a position to buy a boat again, it will definitely be a cat of some sort. simply because of the amount of room compared with a monohull of the same length, or longer.
"with this boat four winns allows you to expand your horizons" - please spare me this joy, for 750k starting price? LOL
BTW: this looks like a copy of Aquila 36 but for more $. Why more $?
How much does it cost?
Check out the link in the description
Beautiful
Beneteau owns Four Winns.
I'm not surprised
this craft rocks.
