Verdict
A compact 20-foot RIB with practical family-dayboat appeal: easy to handle, quick enough with modest power, and well suited to short coastal trips. It is less about luxury or overnight capability and more about simple, versatile day use.

- +Wide beam and tubular layout improve stability
- +Capacity for up to 8 makes it practical for small groups
- +Typical fit-out includes sunpad, bimini, and swim ladder
- +Low-power setup can keep running costs reasonable
Cons
- −Limited cabin/living space compared with larger cruisers
- −Open RIB layout offers little weather protection
- −Performance depends heavily on engine choice
- −Not ideal for extended overnight cruising
- −Exact equipment can vary by charter or dealer
The Maestral 600 Fun is a 6-meter-class semi-rigid boat aimed at relaxed day boating rather than serious cruising. Its design is straightforward and functional, with an open deck layout that emphasizes seating, sunbathing, and easy movement around the boat. Public listings place it around 5.99 to 6.0 meters long and 2.50 to 2.65 meters wide, with capacity commonly quoted at 8 to 12 people depending on configuration and market.
On the water, this model should feel agile and easy to manage. Public rental listings describe it as nimble, and the available 40 hp setup suggests modest, economical performance rather than high-speed running. Handling should be predictable thanks to the stable RIB format, making it suitable for first-time skippers and sheltered coastal use, though stronger wind and chop will naturally expose the limits of a boat this size.
Comfort is adequate for day trips, especially if fitted with sunpads, bimini shade, a swim ladder, and a freshwater shower as seen in some public listings. It is not a cabin cruiser in any meaningful sense, so livability is limited and overnight use is not its strength. Overall value is solid if the goal is a simple, versatile, low-complexity boat for family outings, swimming stops, and short coastal hops rather than full-scale cruising.
