The search results provided more specific details for the interior and some owner feedback.

Interior:

  • "roomy interior that can sleep a family of four with functional galley and head".
  • "beautifully finished in mahogany" Previous Search - Thunderbird Marine, Snippet 17.
  • "Maxi Fenix Dinette" mentioned, implying a specific interior configuration.

Owner's Perspectives:

  • One owner praised its performance upwind: "This type of boat, which I didn't know, works well upwind."
  • An owner described the Fenix 8.5 as "a sporty rather than staid yacht".
  • "Found a Fenix with a new engine and saildrive!" suggests that engine/saildrive might be an area of common upgrades or concern on older models, but no explicit "common problem" was stated.
  • One Reddit user asked "Made a big mistake?" after buying, but no specific problems were detailed.

Based on this, I have enough for all sections. I can add the owner perspectives section with the limited but positive "sporty" and "works well upwind" feedback, acknowledging the lack of detailed common issues.

Confidence: 5/5. I have a clear path to generating the article now.
