Project: Apreamare 44

The close cooperation between Victory design and Apreamare goes on, following the success of the previous models and the enthusiasm in meeting ever-changing challenges, without ever forgetting the classical tradition of the Apreamare shipyard. Functionality and easiness of use, two of the key factors for success of the very much appreciated range of boats, are an asset of the latest born Apreamare 44. The outline of the deck shapes the external space, providing the boat with a sober elegance and great functionality. Moving around the boat is made easy by the wide side deck, while the comfortable sofa in the bow area and the large sundeck offer a chance of relax at all times, including sailing. The cockpit is furnished in an original manner, with a comfortable sofa that, when needed, can be turned into a sundeck by means of a pantograph support mechanism in the back. In the bow area below deck there is a large owner’s cabin, designed to meet the needs of owners who love comfort onboard, offering wide wardrobes along the walls and a constant relationship with the sea through the wide panoramic windows. Bathrooms in the central part of the boat have separated, large shower cabins, which can be accessed from the cabins. The bathroom of the guests’ cabin also serves as a day bath thanks to the additional door on the corridor. The innovative layout of the area below deck also includes the galley and guests’ cabin in the stern. The guests’ cabin, provided with all the necessary stowage spaces, has a single bed and a French bed. The L-shaped kitchen is fully equipped, including a sink, refrigerator which is larger than the average on this category and burner stove. Spacious wall cupboards, chests of drawers and shelves provide ample stowage room. While the functionality of the galley is an important element, the prevailing characteristic is its direct relationship with the living area provided by a wide opening in the deck that also guarantees excellent and pleasant lighting. The layout of the deck includes the living room, with a C-shaped sofa that can be transformed into a comfortable bed by means of the adjustable height table. Behind the captain’s seat is a large L-shaped container which integrates the rich interior of the deck. In spite of its small size, Apreamare 44 provides a comfortable sailor’s cabin that can be accessed from the settee in the cockpit. This boat will be equipped with twin Cummins 480hp motors enabling a maximum speed of 30 knots and a cruising speed of 27 knots.
