Projects: Fashion 141, Fashion 112, Fashion 88, Fashion 72 Classic, Fashion 55 Tender

Fashion Yachts located in the glamorous Tuscany region in Italy, presents some important projects for the future, starting with this big 44 metre Super Yacht. As yet the builder provided little information accept for this exterior design which shows a two and a half decked flybridge super yacht. Fashion estimates speed of 30 knots with 2 x 2500 hp MTU engines. While 141 feet might seem big the yard has also in project 2 other bigger yachts of 166 and 192 feet, a very ambitious future indeed for such a young builder, who has already gained a lot of reputation with the smaller 55, 68 and 116 models. Second project for the Fashion line is this flybridge super yacht of 35 metres with 2 and half decks and an estimated top speed of 32 knots. The new Fashion 88 project follows the lines of the 116 model but in a more aggressive design. With an aft located living zone under a carbon, crystallised hard top which gives a strong and light weight construction for the super structure giving a safe navigation to the guests in the difficult conditions. A top speed of 40 knots is being estimated with 2 x 2400 hp MTU engines propelled with Arneson Surface Drives. The Fashion 72 Classic project is something unexpected of what this yard has presented since its origin a few years back, that is fast sport hard top yachts. In fact this is a project of a semi displacement flybridge motor yacht with generous horsepower of only 2 x 700 hp engines giving maximum speeds of 21 knots and cruising of 18 knots. The interior will be available in 3 and 4 cabins layouts. Based on the lines of the successful Fashion 55, the 55 Tender is a fast runabout aimed at the client who has a big superyacht or a villa by the sea and wants a big comfortable daily runabout sport yacht. The interior is based with a layout offering 2 cabins, one double for owner and a single for crew. Standard propulsion is a classic shaft drive style. A hidden jet bike garage is located forward just behind the anchor winch.
