New Model: Mondomarine M50 C22-04

Mondomarine presents the launch of project C22-04, a fifty meter semi displacement super yacht has delivery number 64 for the Savona based Italian shipyard. Mondomarine M50 C22-04 is a design from Milan based Hot Lab studio who designed the exterior, with the interior managed by Interforce Inc from Fort Lauderdale USA. With an overall length of 49 meters and a beam of nine, build with light alloy for both hull and superstructure, M50 features three decks and a spacious sundeck. The innovative look of this project follows Mondomarine’s traditional styling and heritage adding design solutions that gives to the yacht’s profile a flowing and appealing line enriched by the magnificent color combinations attributed by the owner. Her most eye-catching feature is the steep rake of the stern, which generates a forward visual thrust for the superstructure and creates a play of open and filled spaces, allowing natural light to bathe the main deck interiors. The full-height windows running most of the length of the main deck create exciting, light-filled interior spaces that allow a constant dialogue with the exterior. Access to the yacht is along the central walkway separating the two large sun-pads which leads to the aft cockpit, offering a large sun area and lounge with spacious sofas evoking the generous spaces typical of an open design. The fold-down beach area is uniquely large for a super yacht of this size and conceals the access stairway and forms a striking yet warmly welcoming area. This stylistic solution creates an extended visual sweep that acts as a conceptual reflection of the classic external lines. Automobile-style details that are a typical feature of Hot Lab’s work include the design of the aft fair-leads. The starboard garage hosts a large tender. Twelve guests will be accommodated in four guest cabins and one Owner’s stateroom. The style of the interiors is fully classical, which contains countless elements of the purest architectural tradition, columns, pilasters and carved lintels, friezes and bas-reliefs, from the Italian, English and French manufacturing tradition. Twelve different type of marbles are found on-board, onyx, mahogany, brier and a large quantity and variety of tissues: 37 different motifs decorate the 5 cabins, the two lounges and other public and private areas, creating a decorative richness of precious and rare color impact. As all Mondomarine‘s construction structural, hydrodynamic and technical design for M50 C22-06 was handled by the Savona builder engineering team, who for this vessel went for a semi displacement hull shape which offer max speeds of twenty knots from twin MTU 2185hp engines.

Saying all this, the Bertram name return has had the desired impact, with nine units sold on plan and prior to launch for the Micheal Peters and Marty A.Lowe designed 35 model.  It is still early days for Gavio's Group Bertram, owners of the US legend since the start of 2015 but this long term project looks all set up in the right direction.

Project: Sea Ray L550 Fly

Sea Ray became a serious contender in the luxury yacht market with the debut of its L-Class line-up three years ago, and the new L550 Fly will only further cement this status. Blending Sea Ray lines with a modern Europe aesthetic, the L550 Fly is, like its larger L-Class siblings, a seamless blend of style and substance. Throughout the yacht, advanced technologies enhance comfort and ease of use, including vacuum infusion structures and a state-of-the-art digital switching system. Livability is exceptional; the lower level features a luxurious full-beam master suite with resort-style head, as well as two additional staterooms and a guest head. On the main deck, a sprawling, sunlit salon with galley opens to a large, social cockpit, where options including a grill and sunshade encourage gathering.  Perhaps the most defining feature of the L550 Fly is its well-appointed flybridge, geared toward entertaining a group with ease. The upper helm station, as well as the standard lower helm, will features latest electronics. Twin Cats 850hp inboards are available with joystick control for effortless docking, and an available Seakeeper gyroscopic stabilizer will adds comfort to what is already a reassuring ride.  Official presentation at Fort Lauderdal boat show in early November.

New Model: Rio 38 Parana

Rio is a builder to watch in recent times and the 38 Parana designed by Marino Alfani is an important entrance ticket to its renovated range.  Replacement to the good looking 36 Air the Rio 38 Parana with a bit more length brings important novelties to the twelve meter sport cruiser sector.  The 38 Parana does all this by staying in the small boat under ten meter registry.  One of the most interesting details of the 38 Parana is for sure its lower deck layout, available in three double or two large cabin plan choices. In the large two cabin option the two midships cabins are replaced by a spacious full beam owners room with private en-suite head at midships. The 38 Parana also improves the exterior cockpit and now is a full flash deck no step layout with open convivial spaces.  Power for the Rio 38 Parana comes from twin Volvo 300hp engines which give max speeds up to 35 knots.
