Project: Leonard 66

Leonard presents the project for the 66, a model which will be the entry level of this North Italian, Adriatic sea based builder founded in 2001, after a previous 7 years experience in the refit of yachts of all types. The new 66 wants to offer flexibility and maximum customization with the possibility to choose three different options in the cabins configuration. For example Leonard shows how the hall can be set with living room and separated dining room, or arranged in a unique and vast open space, in any case with separated kitchen from the living area, which has two doors: one internal and one external to the side deck. The lower deck reserved for the cabins follows a flexible concept too, with the owner able to choose three different solutions based on his preferences; in any case, all cabins are equipped with a suite bathroom. Version 1 offers 3 cabins with mid ship owner cabin with dress room, VIP cabin to fore and guest cabin with 2 single beds in between. Version 2 is a four cabins layout: cabin owner is at the centre of the boat, offering the above plus a single guest cabin which if desired can also be used as office. Version 3 is similar to 1, with a the third cabin offering a double guest berth or call it a second VIP cabin. Crew area is located aft, with independent access door. It is a real apartment with 1 or 2 berths, bathroom, kitchen, ironing room and is directly connected with the engine room. Big view windows all along the sides of the deckhouse, allow a natural brightness of the interior. The large cockpit is arranged with a comfortable dinette that can be completely covered by an electrical sun curtain, floating in the structure of the fly. On the fly bridge there is a wide space in order to create a dinette with attached barbecue, and an area to housing the tender. A large bow sundeck and a sofa, create an outdoor living area that permit to remain in full freedom and privacy during the cruising. Power will be from twin MAN 1360hp each.
