The ETAP 23i represents a refined evolution of the "pocket cruiser" concept, introduced by the Belgian shipyard to succeed the original ETAP 23. Designed by Jacques de Ridder, this 7.1-meter yacht was marketed as a sophisticated, trailerable coastal cruiser that prioritized safety and build quality over raw speed. The "i" in its name signifies an improved version, featuring updated deck moldings and an optimized interior layout compared to its predecessor. Central to its identity is the manufacturer's hallmark double-skin construction, which utilizes a closed-cell polyurethane foam core between two fiberglass hulls. This design not only provides the necessary buoyancy to meet "unsinkable" certification standards but also serves as high-grade thermal and acoustic insulation, a rarity for vessels of this size.
