Sealine present the SC42 project due for launch next summer, on what is the Sport Cruiser version of the F42, latest launch from the US Brunswick owned British company.

Following latest trends the SC42 can be transformed from wind in the hair boating to full protection in a matter of seconds, and the roof will feature a unique full length, soft top convertible system and large opening side windows which let in light and the fresh air. One of the most significant design features of the SC42 is the cockpit layout which makes max use of the full beam width for seating and entertaining. There are four wide forward facing seats at the helm, a fully integrated dashboard, plus a wet bar and pop up TV behind the seats. To the rear the flexible seating and dining arrangement offers comfortable dining for ten either as one large group or on two separate tables. This space can easily be transformed into rear or forward facing sunbathing areas so that those on board can enjoy the sun and sea next to the hi lo private bathing platform, watch films and socialise with others in the cockpit. There is ample storage throughout the boat. Engine options include stern drives with joystick control or IPS pods. The luxurious forward master cabin will have separate shower and toilet compartments, whilst the three berth mid cabin offers five different sleeping options plus an en-suite shower area with a bi fold door separating the toilet. The saloon has space for eight to dine in comfort and the galley, with its full height fridge freezer, has over 2.5 metres of worktop and plenty of storage.

Improve-it = Dellapasqua DC11 SL

Dellapasqua improves the DC11 SL by polishing some exterior details. These new changes concern the window profile now more sports looking, and the radar arch being made of fiberglass. As is expected the Italian, Adriatic sea based builder does not change its deep hull shape, and the spacious well planned interiors. The inside of the DC11 SL, or to say better the lower deck are also a bit on the unique side for a shaft driven motor cruiser measuring twelve meters overall available with a three cabin lower deck option. Although the third cabin bunk is a small affair for kids. A two cabin with lower deck galley is also available. Power is twin diesel engines up to a maximum of 550hp each.

Project: Moonen 82 Alu

Moonen Shipyards in the Netherlands announce the order for a new 25 metre fast hull, aluminium built super yacht, the 82 Alu. This new Moonen will be capable of reaching 25 knots and have an exceptional range for a fast yacht, being able to cruise much further than vessels of an equivalent size and speed. The fleet of high speed Moonen's has been growing in recent years, with several custom built all aluminium yachts. It was the vision of Moonen to create an aluminium range of yachts called the Alu-series which started with the 94 Alu. As any new Moonen the 82 Alu follows interest and order from a customer. The Moonen 82 Alu will combine a high degree of displacement comfort with an option to go at 25 knots. As the owners are also looking for low fuel consumption, the hull needs to be very efficient at low speeds. The design for the hull is the subject of extensive research work, including line models. A stringent testing programme is also underway as the yard gears up to start building this exciting new project. Launching is scheduled for 2012.

Improve-it = Sciallino S23 Cabinato

Sciallino are proud to announce their first hybrid boat born on the S23 Cabinato in cooperation with Mizuno Marine from Japan, and Italian Scandiesel. Sciallino first hybrid powered craft with diesel and electrical engine will be introduced at the Yokohama boat show in Japan on March 2011. A new step in developing a modern and ecological boat, based this time on an entry level traditional cruiser the S23 Cabinato model. The Steyr engine running diesel mode will drive the Sciallino's to the open Japanese sea and ocean, thus emphasizing the hull's strength and seaworthiness. On the other hand, one could turn the diesel off, to activate the electrical modem and the traditional gozzo hull will softly glide by the shore, quiet and respectful for the environment, with the great efficiency of full displacement cruising. It seems many builders are trying hybrid power, although this seems so far more of interest to large plus seventy feet sizes, all smaller to nine meters boats.
