New Model: Sessa 54 Sport Fly

Another exclusive preview from PowerYachtBlog, this time presenting the Sessa 54 Sport Fly just as it debuted at Cannes. This Italian builder has really upgraded itself in the last years, and when one thinks it arrived to the limits, it presents a new model pushing the borders of design and quality a step further. Christian Grande in his first flybridge Motor Yacht for Sessa takes a lot from the smaller open hardtop cruisers and yachts, giving it very sporty looks with a family feeling representing the range. Secondly Sessa also offer easy and fast handling in the marina and not, thanks to the 54 Sport Fly being equipped with the second generation of the larger Volvo IPS II drives, in this case the 900 series powered with 700hp engines. This should push the 54 Sport Fly to an estimated 37 knots max speed. Inside the 54 Sport Fly offers a three double cabin interior which is filled with natural light thanks to the huge windows and the furnishing used. Sessa also says that the 54 Sport Fly is unique for offering two real galley dining areas: being on top of the flybridge, and inside in the main deck saloon.
