Absolute present the project for the 58 Fly which seems a follow up to the renovation phase as started in this 2016 year with the 50 Fly model. The 58 Fly will be also a replacement to the 56 series. The 58 Fly is an evolution of the Absolute design, taking cues from the larger 64 and 72 models and having the feel of a much bigger boat, see deeper walk around bulwarks and fore deck settee. Its main deck layout although similar to the 56 will offer also much more spaces see larger dinette, while the astern galley will be of a much open style. Below deck the Absolute 58 Fly will also offer a three double cabins three head layout, with the option of a crew cabin aft. Standard engine power will come from twin Volvo 600hp engines. Launching is scheduled for the first half of 2017.

Project: Sessa 21 Fly
It is always interesting to see how a boat builder will preform when a change happens for a long standing designer. This is part of the story for the new Sessa 21 Fly which after an important time with Christian Grande taking care of design head into the new with Davide Cipriani Centrostile team. A name which has expanded not little in recent years, Centrostiledesign have worked with some important Italian names as Carnevali, Sanlorenzo, and Riva here bringing the important open hard-top evolution on the 88 Florida model. The Sessa 21 Fly seems based on the C68 for its hull lines with a completely new super structure with flybridge.

Project: Sundeck 670
Starting with a project of the Sundeck 550 in 2015, this Italian boat builder is slowly expanding its range to a complete offer in the explorer cruiser yacht segment with the just launched 450 entry level to the project for a new eighty feet flagship. This project of the 670 is the next natural step up for Sundeck following the success of the 550, and sees designer Maurizio Zuccheri expand a family feeling look and the small ship features of the smaller model into larger dimensions. Interestingly for an explorer yacht the Sundeck 670 surprises for its exterior spaces with a lot of thought going into making the fore deck a prime entertainment area. The Sundeck 670 offers interesting performance numbers with the standard twin 850hp engines reaching max speeds of 27 knots, and a 17 knots cruise giving a four hundred nautical mile range. Slow your speed further at nine knots and your range becomes 1500 nautical miles.
