Marex is taking family cruising to a new level with the new coming model, the Marex 390. She is designed as an addition to the 330 and 440 Scandinavian range, offering a perfect balance of open and enclosed spaces.
“This new model brings more space, smarter features, and fresh design updates. It’s the 4th generation of the same concept in this size—something Marex knows inside and out,” says Espen Aalrud, CEO of Marex Boats.
To ensure Marex 390 meets the real needs of boaters, all feedback from the previous Marex owners was collected, and thoughtful details were incorporated. The Marex team worked closely with VOM Creations and Alpha Engineering, taking care to create a more open and comfortable space. The new 390 has a warped hull design (variable V-shape) and an innovative structure that ensures superior stability, efficiency, and performance on the water. Long, sleek windows run along the hull, giving the profile a fresh and elegant look.
Innovative Deck
Marex has always prioritised functional design. The swim platform benches on the Marex 390 serve a dual purpose: they provide seats next to the water and offer expansive stowage for fenders, lines, and toys. The new cockpit transparent door lets in more light and makes docking in harbours easier, while also keeping a connection to the sea.
The foredeck’s hatch has a hidden bow sprit to be easily flipped out, making access to land from the bow easy. The sunpad also serves as a floating toy, a feature that is very popular among families. The adjustable backrest of the mattress allows it to be used as a chaise lounge.
The Marex signature enclosure, the Smart Canopy System, remains a highlight. The side curtains can be deployed in seconds, and together with two sliding roofs, the boat can be adapted to various weather conditions.
Welcoming cockpit
The Marex 390 offers two generous dining areas—one in the open cockpit and another in the enclosed salon. In the cockpit, a U-shaped sofa extends to accommodate an additional starboard-side seat, comfortably seating up to eight guests around the table.
Inside, the redesigned salon features a more spacious layout, resulting in a more open and social atmosphere. A reversible backrest transforms the seating into a U-shaped dining area around the table. When the backrest is positioned at the rear, it creates a co-pilot seat. A foldable office table completes the setup, offering a practical workspace.
A large sliding door combined with a retractable window allows the salon and cockpit to open up into one continuous space, perfect for socialising with family and friends.
The galley is compact but cleverly designed. It includes an induction Miele hob (with generator installed) or a gas hob, a sink with a cover, a double fridge and freezer, an optional oven, and plenty of storage, including new upper cabinets on both sides of the salon. The solar panel system, installed on the roof, provides constant power for the fridge and lights, allowing for boating away from shore power.
Accommodation
The accommodation on the Marex 390 is designed to deliver true home comfort on the water. Both the forward and midship cabins feature enlarged double beds with premium mattresses that improve sleeping quality. Spacious wardrobes and generous standing height add to the overall sense of comfort. In the midship cabin, a sofa serves as a cozy seating area or an additional sleeping space for children. A separate shower contributes to the home-like atmosphere, while large windows on the lower deck fill the space with natural light, creating a bright and airy ambiance.
Power & Performance
The Marex 390 is available with several engine options to suit different cruising needs. Owners can choose between single or twin sterndrives, or with shaft drive motorisation coming later. Fuel and water tank capacities are generous, making the boat well-suited for longer trips at cruising speed. For added convenience, a new pilot door provides easy access to the side deck, simplifying docking and manoeuvring while also enhancing onboard ventilation.
