New Model: Cranchi 29 Zaffiro

Another new model from the fleet of novelties that famous Italian builder Cranchi has unveiled during 2008. Cranchi 29 Zaffiro is the new small entry level in the Master Cruiser range, which starts from the baby 28 and goes up to the 36 Zaffiro. The new 29 Zaffiro is an interesting entry level model from Cranchi, aimed at those new boaters who want comfort in not so big dimensions, but also for those owners coming from a day boat experience wanting to own a cabin boat. Sober contemporary classic modern looking 29 Zaffiro has some bonuses on its side not found on boats this size, like a very spacious exterior cockpit giving the feeling of a much bigger boat, the modern touch of the big view windows for each of the sleeping cabins, and last but very important especially for trading up owners from smaller boats the twin engine option. Inside the 29 Zaffiro has the classic layout for this size, that of a 2 + 2 berth interior, coming from a convertible v-shaped settee forward and a spacious cabin mid ship. Speed is a max of 32 knots with the twin diesel engine option of D3 Volvo of 190 hp each. Range with the same engines is for 165 nautical miles or about 7 hours at a cruising speed of about 24 knots.
