New Model: Itama Sixty

The Sixty, is a new yacht from Itama, about to venture onto the seas. The Itama Engineering Department and Advanced Yacht Technology of Ferretti S.p.A., in partnership with yacht designer Marco Casali who is responsible for the boatyard’s entire range, have created a vessel that is a natural evolution of the Fiftyfive. The result is an open yacht with a decidedly sporty feel, whose strength lies in its powerful performance. This sport yacht is 18.82 metres long, and has a powerful twin MAN 1550hp engines and surface propellers, effortlessly reaching 48 knots of max speed. Its high performance is partly due to the famous 22° vee shape of the hull, a distinctive feature of this shipyard, which assures unparalleled performance thanks to the higher bow and the markedly slimmer stern. This new Sixty is a continuation of the direction taken by Itama with great success in recent years, as the company has concentrated on ideas that really make the most of the available space. On-board liveability, the optimisation of interior exterior spaces, and the feeling of freedom during navigation are the distinctive traits of Itama's. The first thing you notice is the spacious cockpit which not only has a large sunbathing area but also incorporates an open air pull-out table and a comfortable sofa next to the cockpit area complete with front-facing seats and chaise-longue. The glass windshield an important stylistic and technological detail typical of Itama vessels not only gives added rake to the boat’s profile, but also creates total protection inside the cockpit without reducing direct contact with the sea. Another sophisticated feature is the choice of materials used from the carbon finish dashboard, to the helm made from stainless steel, and high quality teak. The electrohydraulic canopy, successfully introduced on the Fiftyfive, will stand up to any weather conditions. Offering total protection of the dinette when closed, it can be opened so that passengers can fully appreciate life onboard the yacht. Getting the most out of your boat also means appreciating all of its functions, and in this regard the Itama Sixty has an interesting new feature compared to the Fiftyfive, reflecting the constant search for solutions designed to increase onboard comfort. There is a central walkway on the transom which acts as a tender lift for easy handling of the jet ski or tender. Last but not least, access to the engine room is extremely convenient, with the option of entering via the afterpeak or from the crew cabin. Apart from the classic layout of the interior, what is instantly apparent is the meticulous styling and carefully-selected materials used in the strikingly contemporary interior. The shipyard has chosen to focus its attention on the owner by providing two choices of below deck finish: white lacquer, for an airier, maritime feel, or the warmth and elegance of walnut. The standard layout of the Itama Sixty comprises 3 cabins and 3 en-suite bathrooms, plus a convenient kitchen diner. The crew cabin is optional and features an entirely new design compared to the Fiftyfive, to make way for the larger propulsion units. It has a separate stern entry guaranteeing maximum privacy onboard, and of course there is direct access to the engine room through the watertight door. Great 48 knots top speed performance, a racing spirit and elegantly customised interior are qualities that make the new Itama Sixty an avant garde design that perfectly combines power and unbridled contact with the sea.
