New Model: Rodman Spirit 42 Coupe

The latest addition to the Rodman Spirit range is the 42 Coupé, a versatile fully enclosed sport cruiser based on the 42 platform presented with the Flybridge version in 2012.  As at today the Rodman 42 is still the flagship model of the Spirit range which debuted in 2010 with the 31.  The Rodman Spirit 42 Coupe is designed for a the customer who wants a fully enclosed hard top sport cruiser with a sliding electrical roof, and a more sporty profile exterior. With this new Spirit 42 Coupe, Rodman also introduced larger hull side windows which also feature integrated opening portholes, providing additional brightness in the lower deck cabin area.  The Rodman Spirit 42 Coupe offers as the style outside offers a traditional layout with two cabins below deck, master cabin forward, and lower deck galley located to port side.  The main deck offers a C-shaped dinette to port side, with an entertainment unit opposite and helm station to starboard.  The Rodman Spirit 42 Coupe is powered by standard Volvo 340hp or optional twin 380hp both with IPS pod propulsion.  Top speed is not communicated but the 42 Flybridge has a thirty knots performance from twin Volvo 300hp, so expect numbers to be just above that number with the standard engines.

Improve-it = Rodman 44 Muse

Its been one of the most famous models in its size, since launched in 2007. At its time the Fulvio de Simoni designed Rodman 44 Muse was a very innovative product thanks to a project fully based on the Volvo IPS pod drives propulsion. That means engine at the back, and more space then ever down below for a flybridge cruiser measuring less to fourteen meters. Now just short to seven years to its debut the Spanish builder Rodman face lifts the 44 Muse with some important make up changes, mostly of which are larger view windows both up and below deck.  For the rest the 44 Muse keeps its high pedigree for a spacious three double cabins flybridge cruiser, with a nice vibrant performance of 34 knots with twin Volvo 435hp and IPS pod drive propulsion.

New Model: Rodman 42 Spirit Flybridge

Introduced in 2010 with the 31 Spirit Open, this Rodman range continues to grow and now features three models of which are two versions of the 31 and this new much awaited flagship.  Designed by Fulvio De Simoni as the smaller 31, the Rodman 42 Spirit continues a bit its mix of appeal for modern looks with traditional concepts. See longer fore deck, or the very straight bow, not fully extended flybridge.  Accommodation in the 42 Spirit Flybridge is not far fetched, considering it has Volvo IPS you get only two well spaced cabins, with an owners room to fore, and a galley located below to port side opposite the guest two single berths guest cabin.  The main deck features a C-shaped lounge settee, opposite unit, and helm.  The flybridge is more a sun preacher layout with an aft sunbed, and a medium sized L-shaped settee.  Power is from twin Volvo 300hp engines with IPS pods which Rodman says should give a 30 knots performance, and a 25 of cruise.

New Model: Rodman 31 Spirit Open

Rodman presents the 31 Spirit Open. a hard top less version of this model launched a year ago in September 2010.  Thanks to this configuration and the 31 Spirit Open moving circular aft settee, this model gives impressive space outdoors for a sport cruiser measuring just over nine meters.  The catch here is that with the open version one looses the convertible double berth coming from the L-shaped settee on the main deck, and an all year sun or rain possible usage.  But if you are planning a more day use or cruise as a small family and mostly in Summer this should suit just as well ones needs, as below decks there is still accommodation for three berths in two areas, and a separate shower head.  Power for the Fulvio De Simoni designed Rodman 31 Spirit Open is from a single or twin 220hp, with various engine choices in between.

After presenting the Rodman Spirit range with the 31 a year ago, the Spanish builder shows up the second model of the range with the 42 Spirit Flybridge project.  The Spirit is a design from Italian designer Fulvio De Simoni, who with the 42 followed what was shown in the 31 of a hybrid modern classic looks, but in larger sizes and adding a flybridge on top. This is De Simoni second collaboration with Rodman, having created so far all the four models of the 2006 presented more luxury modern looking Muse range for them. The interior of the Rodman 42 Spirit Flybridge offers a two cabins with two shower heads, one of which en suite for the owners room to fore, and a saloon living on the main deck.  The C-shaped galley is located below, by the three steps stairs which lead from the main deck.  Power is from twin Volvo 300hp with IPS pods propulsion which give a top speed of 30 knots and a cruise of 26.

Project: Rodman 20m Navetta

After presenting the Spirit line a couple of months ago, and the Muse range in 2006 Rodman continue its efforts to expand and present a diversity of yacht styles with the new Navetta line. For this new project Rodman Polyships entrusted a Spanish firm with Barcelona Yacht Design tasked for the design of this new line which has a plan of having three models in the near future. So far we are being shown the rendering of the first twenty metre model, but a 24 and a 30 meters are also on plan. These last two models will put Rodman on the Super Yacht map, having at the moment the 74 Muse designed by Fulvio De Simoni as its largest model. The 20m Navetta will have a total length including the very large aft bathing platform of 23 metre and can be handled with a standard yachting licence. An explorer appearance abound in this new model, which is mixed up well with modern thinking thanks to large glassed surfaces on the main deck. But don't be mistaken the 20m Navetta is full of modern yacht flair in and out, and its speed is not slow at all. Inside the 20m Navetta will feature four guest cabins with owners suite to midship, and a VIP to fore. A crew lobby with cabin, small galley and saloon is to be found aft, along with a fourth double guest cabin located to starboard. The main deck is a split level saloon with the standard welcoming relaxing area aft, and dining, galley and helm station to fore. Tender stowage is on the flybridge, although the large bathing platform gives space for a second tender, or to use the fly for large entertainment areas. Twin Man 1360hp engines will power the 20m Navetta with the builder and designer estimating a top speed of 25 knots, and a cruise of 20.

New Model: Rodman 31 Spirit

In the fall of this season the Spanish boat builder Rodman with the help of Italian designer Fulvio De Simoni presented the new Spirit line launching its first 31 model. The 31 Spirit is an interesting new model from Rodman, and with it this well respected Spanish company stretches its market to Northern Europe and to those who want a boat to use all year round. While in this concept Rodman also extended there relationships with Italian designer Fulvio de Simoni who they started working since the 2006 launched 54 Muse. Even in that case it was a new range set up from Rodman which today features four distinctive models including the 74 Muse flagship. The 31 Spirit is a very versatile boat and its most distinctive feature is the circular settee in the cockpit which thanks to its movement extends and opens the size of the aft deck. But that is surely half the story as a fully enclosed pilot house with sunroof and patio door, a living in the main deck, a well sized shower head, and two double cabins complete this sport cruiser. Versatility is also key to this project and in fact the 31 Spirit can be powered for a coastal slower more economic use with a single engine in this case a Volvo 300hp, or a twin faster safer optional of two 170hp units.

New Model: Rodman 50 Muse

Rodman have gone a long way since in 2006 they launched the first of there luxury yacht range designed by Italian Fulvio De Simoni the 54 Muse. This was followed by the 74 a year later, then the 44, and latest the fourth 50 model. This one announced in mid 2009, and unit one launched at the end of that same year. Unlike its predecessor the 44, the 50 Muse takes a more conservative approach to its interior with a classic three cabin plan having an owners suite to fore, a guest shower head, and two double cabins to mid ship. I am sure the large circle windows to mid ship of the hull would have made you think that you have a full beam cabin there but so far this is not so. The main deck also is another typical of a Mediterranean yacht with a split level saloon having a C-shaped settee, helm station to starboard, unit, and the C-shaped galley on the raised part to port. Power for the conservative inside, and modern outside 50 Muse is from twin Volvo 670hp, which give a 32 knots max, and a 26 knots cruise delivering a 300 nautical miles range.

Project: Rodman 50 Muse

Rodman continue to expand the high profiled Muse range with the project rendering for a 50 model set to be launched in Cannes. The 50 Muse will sit between the small 44 latest model of the range, and the 54 which was the first. As all Muse models the 50 is designed by World famous Italian architect Fulvio De Simoni who created a nice looking modern motor yacht. De Simoni and Rodman present a project with a well sized flybridge and main deck saloon with galley up solution. Down below the offer is for a three cabin layout with two heads, of which one en suite for the owner, and a guest shower head. The large hull side windows will suggest to the many a full beam owners cabin, but so far the plans show a traditional fore owners cabin, a VIP cabin to port, and a twin guest cabin to starboard. A crew cabin with head is located aft. Performance to the new hull design is an estimated 32 knots max, and a cruising speed of 26 knots at 70% power with twin Volvo 670hp.

New Model: Rodman 44 Muse

The new Rodman Muse 44 is the compact model in the Spanish builder luxurious range, which recently received Best Development Project award at the World Yacht Trophies in Cannes. With a twelve-metre long hull, the Muse 44 respects the attractive modern style the rest of the range enjoys, with the marked superstructure lines, the three lateral windows and a lively sports character for a flybridge cruiser. The 44 maximises the available volume, enabling a highly attractive, functional, and comfortably spacious three cabin interior that matches that found in bigger boats. The 44 Muse is also innovative in it's propulsion system featuring Volvo's IPS system giving the best in marina handling, superior speed manoeuvring and greater interior accommodation. While the use of the IPS system is very common today it is still very rare seeing the POD propulsion used on any flybridge cruisers and yachts, but the fact that Rodman was among the first using it on the 41 IPS can give a reassuring guarantee that this project is well developed in its roots.

Project: Rodman 44 Muse

The new Rodman Muse 44 is based on two principles, powerful performance and elegant modern lines. Each item of this new model from the famous Spanish constructor responds to a need, and noting is left to chance on board. The new Rodman is optimized for the best use of space and designer Fulvio De Simoni did the best in providing a superior spacious thirteen metre flybridge cruiser with an incredibly spacious 3 double cabin accommodation. This incredible interior space is the result of the use of Volvo's innovative IPS propulsion, which the new 44 Muse can be credited as being one of the very first few flybridge cruisers build and projected around this system. Apart from the extra accommodation the new IPS will give the new Rodman a superior performance and economy, which should make it as the top choice for those looking for a medium to large flybridge cruiser.
