Project: Absolute 43 Fly

Absolute continue to upgrade its line of boats and follows the ongoing success of the open first and hardtop today sport cruiser and yacht models by putting its focus on the new motor cruiser yacht flybridge line up. The company has already shown project renderings for a 50 Fly a couple of weeks ago, and now presents the second of the flybridges which will be the 43 Fly. What will surprise on the 43 Fly is the amount of space the project team managed to create on a boat just measuring over thirteen metres overall, with sleeping berths for six guests, and two en-suited heads. The layout and plan of the accommodation below of the 43 Fly can in numbers compete with that of the bigger new 50 Fly set to launch also in the fall of this year. The 43 Fly can also be accessorized with optionals that make life on board easier like a high low hydraulic bathing platform aft, and a rigid hard top over the flybridge. Power for the 43 Fly will be from a twin Volvo IPS500 or optional 600 choice. Again Absolute uses the Volvo pods to power another model which with the 43 and 50 Fly will power nine out of ten Absolute models. A big faith from the Italian boat builder to the Swedish engine and propulsion manufacturer.

Project: Austin Parker AP42 Sport

Basing itself on the lines of the just launched Austin Parker AP42 Open, the Italian builder present a new sport cruiser interpretation with the project of a Sport version. This model actually shows what a thin line, or to sum it better a different superstructure can do to change the original traditional hull into a new Sport Cruiser interpretation. Also designed by Fulvio De Simoni the AP42 Sport looks very sweet with a muscle interpretation given by the high free board of the hull. Apart the change of super structure the AP42 Sport will keep much of the elements of the AP 42 Open lobster design like the wooden toe rail, and the same interior lower deck with a master suite to fore, galley and L-shaped settee. The main deck will also be the same but in this case this area is dedicated for a full sunshine or canopy covered open air environment.

Project: Galeon 385 Open

Galeon presents the project of the 385 Open, mirroring the hardtop version below the shear line, in the cabins and the practical department, but having its topsides which say head in the air driving experience. Like the 325 before it, with the 385 the famous Straszyn Polish builder and British designer Tony Castro redo what they did in 2008 and follow the demanded HT for Hardtop project with a sportier 385 Open version. The 385 Open gives a younger feel to the overall looks versus the HT version with Tony Castro following a family feeling in this new bigger model which mirrors the Galeon line but mostly the smaller 325 Open sister. The 385 indeed does look similar in the lines, the long sports side window, forward looking radar arch, the windshield which comes from the moulded structure, and an aft cockpit deck which uses half the length. For the remaining the 385 Open is exact as its hardtop sister for what is the accommodation with a well laid flush aft deck cockpit outside, and a two cabins, two shower heads interior. Propulsion will be a stern drive solution offering good speeds and best economy.

Project: Cabo 44 Hardtop Express

Scheduled to debut this fall, the 44 Hardtop Express project is a new design style for Cabo. The integrated hardtop signifies a next step in express design evolution for the Southern California Adelante boat builder, here utilizing a rigid three sided enclosure to offer better protection from the elements, improved visibility, and greater comfort on the helm deck. Below deck, the interior also marks a turn around offering a luxurious space equal to the Cabo 45 Express it will replace. The most dramatic difference in the layout is the addition of either an optional second stateroom, or an angler's room. This extra space allows for easy interior storage of fishing gear or the privacy of a second stateroom away from the master. Another intuitive touch is the placement of a full length galley counter against the aft bulkhead, making access to appliances easier while creating more floor space in the living dining area. The master stateroom and shared head are forward of the living area and offer the comfort and amenities that discriminating owners desire. Like every Cabo the design for this boat began in the cockpit to make sure that it meets the demands of serious anglers. Fish boxes, a tackle center, and bait well in the transom are all standard, and new mezzanine seating provides a comfortable perch when watching the spread. Like many of the latest Cabos to be introduced in the past few years, the 44's foundation is a Michael Peters designed hull. From there, the propulsion design, electrical systems, and attention to detail is executed in the same manner that built the Cabo reputation for a rugged and efficient build. Cabo and Michael Peters present an innovative design with luxurious appointments. The hard top design solution for the 44 Hardtop Express project gives also a great appeal to cruising enthusiasts that may have never considered a Cabo before, while continuing to meet the demands of its core market serious offshore anglers.
