New Model: Lion Evolution 6.0

Lion Yachts is a new Italian brand who with this Evolution 6.0 is on its second model.  The first was a modern centre console the Open Sport 3.5, but the Italian builder has a lot of projects in store, of which is also a super yacht of fifty meters.   The Lion Evolution 6.0 is a mixed explorer yacht of sorts, the builder calls it Sport Trawler, to me it is similar to what Cranchi did with the T36 Crossover, but in more extreme forms and custom options, including of which engine choice.  Following recent trends hull one of the Evolution 6.0 is powered by quadruple Yamaha 425hp engines, with options for twin 725hp or 800hp inboard engines being available.  The inboard choice does not change interior layout choices but moves tender stowage from midships to aft.  Also the outboard choice does not show the motors leaving the stern practically undisturbed.
