Urteil
A compact, well-shaped RIB with strong day-boat appeal: the Envy 710 combines a generous beam, confident offshore-oriented hull form and lively performance. It is not a cabin cruiser, so comfort is focused on open-deck use rather than overnighting.
Vorteile
- +Wide 2.82 m beam gives good stability and usable deck space
- +Deep-V hull and sporty setup suit lively coastal running
- +Strong engine options deliver brisk top-end performance
- +Compact length makes docking and trailering relatively manageable
Nachteile
- −Limited liveaboard comfort; this is mainly a day boat
- −Open layout offers less weather protection than cabin boats
- −Fuel and water capacity are modest for longer passages
- −Specs vary by market and engine fit, so equipment can differ
The Scanner Envy 710 is a 7.07 m sporty RIB with a notably wide 2.82 m beam, giving it a planted stance and more usable cockpit space than many boats in this size class. Its styling is purposeful rather than luxurious, with the emphasis on open-air social use, easy movement around the deck and a performance-first layout.
On the water, the model has a reputation for responsive, confidence-inspiring handling and a quick planing attitude. Publicly reported engine fits range around 250–300 hp, with some versions described as reaching roughly 40 knots, so performance is clearly one of its strengths. The deep-V hull should help it stay composed in chop, although comfort will still depend heavily on load, sea state and engine choice.
As a livability proposition, the Envy 710 is best viewed as a premium day boat rather than a family cruiser with overnight ambitions. The open layout suits 10 guests well for day use, but cabin accommodation is not a feature here, so shelter and storage are limited compared with cabin-equipped competitors. Value is strongest for buyers who want a versatile, stylish runabout with solid sea manners; less so for those prioritizing enclosed comfort or long-range cruising.
