Projects: Estensi 500 Goldstar C, Estensi 480 Goldstar S, Estensi 460 Goldstar C, Estensi 440 Goldstar S

The 500 Goldstar C is the new addition, to the classic lobster boat line of Italian builder Estensi. New 500 model will fit in the middle end of the Goldstar range of traditional yachts and cruisers, and is complimented by a comfortable interior accommodation, among the top of the category offering a 3 cabins 2 heads layout, including a spacious en-suite owners cabin forward. The upper welcoming deck is also a surprise and unusually spacious for this sort of boat, as it is more reminiscent of a flybridge yacht from a decade ago then a lobster type boat, offering a 4 person dining area forward and a welcoming c-shaped saloon settee upon entrance. A crew cabin, with entrance from the galley is also available. Of particular note is the spacious cockpit a must for any lobster yacht, which offers abundant free spaces. Power is by twin 550 hp diesel engines, and as most of the Estensi range, the new 500 Goldstar C will be categorized with a top CE A rating. The 480 Goldstar S is a more modern sportier version for the 500 Goldstar C, offering the same identical 3 cabin interior, and the same well laid up dual saloon. Apart the exterior lines which are more modern and aggressive, the other difference is the stern, which on the 480 and as note in all S versions takes a more modern reverse integrated shape and the patio door which is of steel and glass versus the wood finish on the C line. Engines are the same as the 500 with twin 550 hp and CE rating will also be a top level A rating. The 460 Goldstar C, should join the line in 2009, but this looks another interesting offer from Estensi, complimenting the range of traditional lobster cruisers. She will boast among other things as the new bigger sisters to be launched soon, also a 3 cabin 2 head interior but in more limited spaces. Propulsion will be a shaft configuration with the modern vee drives sets up, saving space and still giving the superior sea keeping this traditional way gives. Powered will be provided by twin 450 hp Diesel engines. 440 Goldstar S, is the modern version of the 460 C based on the same hull design and lines, but with the more modern sportier reverse transom and aggressive looking superstructure. Launching is also planned for 2009. Interior is the same 3 cabin 2 head layout as the 460, and engines also follow the classic version model with twin 450 hp engines on the plan so far. Where the new 440 S will loose a bit versus the 460 C is the exterior aft deck, with the C having that extra bit of free space, in due lost by the reverse design of the transom.
