Project: Vicem 45 Vanguard

Vicem Yachts from Turkey opens 2011 with the presentation of a new worldwide debut of its third line of yachts: the Vanguard Line. This new line has important features to it and will start up with the above rendering shown 45 Vanguard project, which is set to launch this year. A 33 Vanguard will follow the 45. As has been shown by Vicem in the past, the 45 Vanguard features blend of timeless elegance, performing naval architecture and state of the art production technology. The Vanguard is indeed designed by Vicem own design department styling for the exterior and the interior, while the hull and naval architecture were developed by legendary naval architect Michael Peters who here presents a twenty degrees deep Vee dead rise hull. An aggressive yet clean lined design that combines wood elements that typify the classic Vicem style with new color palettes of grey, silver and blue. Accommodation for the 45 Vanguard is still very much comfortable both inside and outside. The interior offers two cabins; one forward and second to midships, head, separate shower room, and a comfortable galley. The comfortable med style exterior offers an large aft sun pad, L-shaped settee, L-shaped lounger, and helm station. An extraordinarily daring design but intimately tied to incomparably high quality hull construction, thanks to the use of infused epoxy resins. SP Systems and Hi Modulus; B3 Smart Pac were chosen by Vicem Yachts to develop a production package using six different kinds of cores for each hull. Standard power package of the 45 Vanguard is Volvo IPS 600 which give 34 knots of top speed. In alternative is a more powerful choice of twin MAN 800hp engines coupled with Arneson Surface Drive transmissions, which sets speeds at over 50 knots.

New Model: Vicem 78 Cruiser

Presented in the Cannes show the new Vicem 78 Cruiser epitomizes the three values upon which this Turkish boat builder is building its success; classic looks, craftsmanship, and total customization. Following the 92, the 78 Cruiser is the second model to launch in this line, and with a model designation of 78, but overall length of 82 feet it sits to the doorstep of Super Yacht size. Like any Vicem the 78 Cruiser is cold molded constructed that means total customization for the owner. For example on hull number one the interior was finished with satin-finish mahogany, accentuated by neutral-coloured fabrics and the discerning use of leather appointments. Other news for the first 78 Cruiser are large view windows in the guest cabins, situated in the full beam owners state room and the two guest rooms. Interior accommodation offers four double cabins, and three crew berths are located aft. Of particular big size are the flybridge, and the aft classic styled teak finished bathing platform. Power is twin MAN 900 or optional 1100hp engines.

New Model: Vicem 75 Classic Flybridge

Vicem makes the 2010 fall European show season full of new models and after launching the 78 Cruiser in Cannes the Turkish builder headed to Genoa presenting the 75 Classic Flybridge. The 75 Classic Flybridge is the latest to come from Vicem and its fifteen person design team. This new model has similar looks to the 72 of the same range but as any Vicem it is a complete novelty built in wood cold molding method, and suited to the owners needs. In case of hull one we had a three cabin layout with galley down finished in sanded wood to European Italian taste style. But a four cabin version is also available. The outside lines of the 75 Classic Flybridge follow that of the Down East Lobster boat of the Maine in the USA. But do not be mistaking this is a full planning hull with a medium Vee seventeen degrees dead rise hull giving max speeds of 30 knots. But if you want to think of economics a range of 870 nautical miles is possible cruising at only 11 knots.

Project: Vicem 78 Cruiser

Vicem Yachts from Turkey heads into the fall of the 2010 European show season with a world debut on the horizon of the 78 Cruiser project, which I imagine is a further refinement of the 75. The new 78 Cruiser epitomizes the three hallmarks of every Vicem yacht: exuding a classic look of timeless elegance, exemplifying the ideals for craftsmanship, and a commitment to customization. But with this classic 25 metres Vicem has undergone a subtle yet sophisticated makeover with a number of new refinements, thanks to the fourteen person in house design team, the 78 Cruiser is a classic with a contemporary twist. Many of the changes made aboard the 78 Cruiser appeal to more European tastes. The trademark interior high-gloss surfaces have given way to the understated beauty of satin-finish mahogany, accentuated by neutral-colored fabrics and the discerning use of leather appointments. Guests will also appreciate having more natural light stream in social areas through markedly larger windows. A bigger swim platform and sunpad area adorn the aft deck and flybridge, respectively. A hard top covering the flybridge helm station area is also standard. These contemporary twists are complemented by an updated exterior, which projects cleaner lines. Power arrangements are twin MAN 900hp Common Rail, which allow the 78 Cruiser to reach cruising and maximum speeds of 16 and 21 knots, respectively, and a range of 1200nm at 10 knots. The 78 Cruiser can welcome aboard twelve guests and three crew. Sleeping accommodations include a full-beam master amidships, a VIP stateroom at bow, and two guest staterooms all with en suite bathrooms.

Projects: Vicem 75 Cruiser Series, Vicem 115 Cruiser Series, Vicem 125 Cruiser Series

Vicem Yachts from Turkey, continues to offer new models based on Traditional lines. With these three new upcoming projects the Turkish builder will have a total of nineteen models, from 52 to 125 feet, in a three different range series. All of the projects presented today are as all Vicem traditional looking. The Cruiser Series unlike the other lines sets more its eyes into European heritage then the US as offered by the Classic and Sportfish series. The Cruiser Series also offers the bigger sizes from the Turkish builder. The first of these pictured above is the 75 Cruiser Series. The 75 will offer a four double cabin interior all located on the lower deck, with a double crew cabin aft. It will be powered by twin 900hp MAN engines, and construction as all Vicem is in the wood plus glass cold molding method. The Vicem 115 Cruiser Series is the second biggest project coming from the Turkish builder. Apart from entering Super Yacht status the 115 offers also a distinctive classic exterior styling with lines echoing the past, like its shear line or traditional squared transom stern. All these are always features of the Vicem yachts, but more so in the Cruiser series. Down below the 115 will offer a five double cabin plan, with a separate galley located on the lower deck. Vicem also offers two alternative plans to the owners cabin located mid ship. Crew quarters located aft offers accommodation for four members. The split level saloon is all dedicated for the owner featuring also a bar area, apart the usual saloon settee, and dining table for ten members. Power is from twin MAN CRM V12 1550hp with speeds estimates of a 19 knots maximum, and cruising of 14 knots. Vicem 125 Cruiser is so far its biggest project, although with a Custom series in the works this might not be for so long. The 125 will be a two deck and half Super Yacht, following the Turkish builder its usual traditional lines of days gone by looks. What to notice surely is how the raised pilot house is integrated very cleanly in the lines. The 125 will offer guest accommodation in five double guest cabins located in the lower deck, plus an owners suite located on the main deck. Crew accommodation is for five or six, located to fore in the lower deck, and in the raised pilot house for the captain. The 125 will also feature a sauna room and a gym room aft.
