New Model: Aicon 82 Open

PowerYachtBlog gives an exclusive preview for Aicon's new 82 Open, flagship of the Sport Yacht line and second biggest model from the Sicilian Italian builder. Announced over a year ago the new 82 Open goes into Super Sport Yacht size, and follows a family feeling design as seen on the 62 and 72 of the same range offering aggressive and flowing lines. This new Aicon also has an innovative integrated system of domestics and onboard monitoring, characterized by a centralization of all electrical utilities functions, and of the parameters of the hydraulic systems. This system presents numerous additional functions such as the automatic management of the power supply, with the possibility to choose which utilities an inverter feeds, the complete configuration and personalization of the controls, and a simple intuitive management of the alarms with automatic safety procedures. The system was realized by Aicon's own engineering department. Characterized by opening windows and hard top, the 82 Open allows one to experience the deck area with the sensation of being in a completely open space contacting the sea, in total sync with the living and cockpit. The streamlined external lines of the boat are also recaptured in the definition of the interiors with duo tone wooden essence copying the colors outside running through the layout of the decorating elements. The ample bathing platform with two staircases welcomes you to the stern cockpit, connecting the spacious bow sunbathing area by the wide side decks. All the outside spaces on the 82 Open have been conceived to experience cruising in relaxation, with maximum comfort in the ample and comfortable open-air dinette, the sunbathing area, or the settee with table located aft. From the stern cockpit through the stainless steel patio door you enter the living area which is characterized by ample picture windows to give a complete view of the sea and assure natural light in this area. The main deck accommodates a large meeting area with an L-shaped sofa and dinette seating eight. Opposite it, in addition to another double seat sofa, there is a hide-away LCD TV and on the left a comfortable fully equipped electric bar cabinet equipped. Located to starboard is the fully equipped double seated helm station. Down below is located the galley and the cabins. Two large opening circle shape portholes, which are a unique style element of the Aicon range, light up the full beam mid ship located master stateroom which features a beauty desk, an ample wardrobe and an elegant en suite bathroom with shower complete with water massage. Going towards bow at starboard and portside are the two guest cabins with double beds, and en suite bathrooms, with the VIP cabin with its full bed and roomy bathroom located at the fore part. The crew quarters located aft has two cabins for three persons and a separate bathroom, which upon request, is possible to substitute one with a small galley and dinette area. Power for the 82 Open is from twin Cats C32P of 1825hp each propelled with surface drives giving an estimated wide open throttle of 43 knots, and a cruise of 37 knots.
