Project: Posillipo 75 Technema

The 75 Technema is the new project for renowned motor yacht and super yacht builder Posillipo. Carlo Galeazzi continues his design duty for the Italian builder, with his touch creating fabulous models for Posillipo and at the same time continuing to amalgamate the family feeling of this prestigious brand as in the previous three launches he did which are the 95, 120 and 90. In this new project, the idea from the builder and designer was that to make the 75 Technema the most spacious yacht in its size category, with the usual performance of around 30 knots associated for the Posillipo brand. Outside Galeazzi follows the usual aggressive classic lines, this time more accentuated with the shape of the saloon windows, having an aggressive shape and profile. Inside the layout is a classic and spacious four guest cabins theme, with a very big full beam owners cabin with full view windows, offering also a full walk in wardrobe, changing room. The main deck is divided with the usual classic Italian layout, offering a c-shaped sofa upon entrance, dining table for 8, separate galley, l-shaped settee to fore, helm station to starboard and the much requested day head, this later not much found on yachts smaller then 25 metres in length. Sea kindliness and performance is always a Technema heritage, and the 75 will sure not disappoint on both, touching speeds of 33 knots and cruising at 29 knots with twin MAN 1635 hp each. A slightly slower option with twin 1550 hp will be also available. Range is 470 nautical miles, with 29 knots cruising and a full 7500 litres fuel tank.

New Model: Jeanneau 50 Prestige S2

An improvement of the 50 Prestige S, this is the new S2 version for the same model just presented in the recent boat shows. The main difference is in the outside with a single big square shaped window now replacing the two vertical port holes featured in the mid ship master stateroom, making a more stylish and sleek exterior profile. The new S2 keeps the other benefits of the Garroni designed 50 Prestige S, as a 2 cabin or 3 cabin option below, or the lounging cockpit deck with plenty of seating space and a tender garage underneath the aft sun pad.

New Model: WallyPower 64

The first unit of the WallyPower 64 stands out for her unmistakable Wally design as well as for her metallic blue striking colour. This much waited new model of the Wally Power range was highly acclaimed by the market and the boat was sold immediately upon her arrival at the Monaco Yacht Show where she made her official debut. This 19 metre yacht represents the transition between the WallyPower 47 and the larger WallyPower 73. The design fully exploits the concept of Wally minimal styling integrating form and function, and combining large interior volumes, available in 2 or 3 cabin options, 40 knots plus high performance, excellent sea keeping, and wide open air areas. The model comes with different choices in every department: for the propulsion with the standard being a joy to drive water jet system, the interior layout available in three options, and for the exterior and interior styling. The production schedule provides for five yearly units to be built in the Wally factory in Fano, Italy.

Project: Galeon 700 Raptor

In the recent years Galeon has upgraded its stakes in the motor yachting and cruiser market, with the 2008 season being a year to remember for the Polish builder with the introduction of new generation models like the current flagship 640 Fly and the just launched aggressive 325 cruiser, both designed by renowned designer Tony Castro and both making a stir in the yachting community. This time the Polish builder challenges the market even more offering something bigger, with the new flagship project of the 700 Raptor, a hard top sports yacht which will be Galeon's biggest built to date and of its type in Poland. Powered by twin MAN V12 Diesel engines, producing 1500 hp each, Galeon estimates top speeds of about 36 knots for its new flagship model. Tony Castro continues his great work for Galeaon following his recent success with the 640 and 325, and for the 700 Raptor he presents a forward thinking concept with remarkable new ideas for exclusive comfort and space. The interior follows the recent Galeon theme with fresh and innovative luxury, resembling a modern penthouse or loft, with the usual treat as experienced for the new 640 of exotic woods, glass, metal and leather use all hand picked by Polish craftsmen to ensure the highest quality and coherence of style. Another innovation compared to similar sport yachts in this size, is the use of huge glass roof combined with wide glass doors, which will protect or open air the main deck to the sun, as the owner desires. This model is bound to surprise a lot of people, but we have to wait till spring of 2009 to see how good the 700 Raptor really is.

Engine: MAN V12 1800hp

The new V12-1800 MAN Nutzfahrzeuge presents a genuine power package of a top performing diesel in its ­engine range generating a maximum torque of 6020 Nm even at 1200 rpm and accelerating at an impressive pace. The 12-cylinder brings yachts into the planing phase fast, achieving high speeds in next to no time. Common Rail direct injection enables fuel injection at very high pressure, producing optimally smooth running and the pleasant ride comfort of this V12. Two-stage ­turbocharging­ also features in the engine's technology. Compactly scaled at 2087 x 1153 x 1275 mm (L x W x H without gearbox), the V12-1800 leaves designers plenty of freedom and flexibility when planning their yachts. Weight is another advantage, in relation to performance the 12-cylinder at just 2365 kg weighs in at 1.31 kg per unit of horsepower. To achieve features like these, MAN's engineers further developed the V-series throughout, optimising engine components in the process. Cooling of the new V12 is by a plate heat exchanger, which allows flexible configuration of the cooling system. In addition to this the V12 comes with a space-saving and low-weight SAE1 flywheel housing. An advantage for engine installation by a boat builder is the modified exhaust system with a central gas outlet. All parts needing maintenance such as fuel and oil filters are arranged for ease of access. And the water pump is driven by a gear instead of a belt. Turning to the engine proper, here too the designers have made interesting modifications. The V12-1800 generates a constant 1800 hp (1324 kW) between 2100 and 2350 rpm. The use of extremely high-strength materials, such as steel pistons, permits gas pressures up to 240 bar and ignition pressures up to 1600 bar. Here a bedplate concept is implemented in a yacht engine for the first time to create the extra strength. This bedplate replaces the single bearing caps of the crankshaft, and plays a major part in reinforcing the crank case and minimising noise emission. Second-generation Common Rail injection plus an optimally conceived combustion process mean high performance together with exemplary emission figures. The V12-1800 naturally complies with current international exhaust directives.

New Model: Apreamare 64 Fly

Apreamare reinvents the traditional Gozzo again, this time not in a so big way as it did in its glorious past, but by offering a flybridge version to its 64 feet model. Obviously this new 64 feet Fly, keeps the excellent layout of the standard version 64, flagship of the Gozzo range and a redevelopment of the Apreamare 60. Distinct features of this model are the bow area with the much appreciated U-shaped sofa, and the stern area, which is the project's key point, thanks to its unique design which from a relaxing settee transforms into a sundeck, blending perfectly with the lines of the hull. Hallmark of the 64 Fly, is obviously represented by the added flybridge, with its second helm station to port, a c-shaped settee to starboard and a two person sun lounger looking aft. Below we have the marvelous 3 cabin 3 head layout with an aft crew cabin, and spacious full beam owners cabin which also features a spacious relaxing bath tub. The materials used for the furniture are extremely natural and classic, with a predominance of shiny and matt mahogany, Viennese straw and mirrored, chrome plated and steel hardware

Project: Cruisers 460 Sports Coupe

Set for its debut in 2009, is the project for the new upcoming Cruisers, the 460 Sports Coupe. As the title suggest this will be a hard top sports cruiser, offering full weather protection being it sun, wind or rain in the two thirds of the aft entertainment cockpit deck. 460 Sports Coupe will be an only Volvo IPS boat, and will have an exterior design profile taking a lot from the latest 520 and 420 Sports Coupe Models. Interior will be a 2 stateroom plan, with a full beam owners cabin to mid ship and a VIP cabin to fore. The entertainment deck will have a c-shaped settee aft, an l-shaped settee to port of the helm station and an outside galley area to starboard aft, which offers a convenient Al-fresco galley. 460 Sports Coupe follows the latest Cruiser design and as its bigger sister ship offers the trademark walk through windshield, something you will find only on a Cruisers hard top. Power for the new 460 is by twin Volvo's IPS500, IPS600 or the new IPS550 petrol engine. Worth to note is also the standard options list, which is among the most extensive in its size range.

New Model: Cranchi 43 Atlantique

A much waited new model, from well known Italian builder Cranchi is the 43 Atlantique, fitting in the Flybridge Yacht range, between hard standing 40 and 50 Atlantique models. The hull lines of the new Cranchi motor cruiser are based on the 43 Mediterranee, with a similar planned lower deck, offering 2 cabins and 2 heads with master cabin to fore, but with the mid guest cabin offering a more family orientated 2 single berths. As the 43 Mediterranee, the new 43 Atlantique uses IPS propulsion, the successful Pod drive from Volvo, which has seen great use on express open or hard top cruisers and yachts, but so far the flybridge boats with this system are very limited. 43 Atlantique will surely gain on better consumption and performace with the use of IPS, compared to similar flybridge cruisers who still use conventional shafts. As all recent Cranchis, this new model continues the family design by Aldo Cranchi, who presents a modern flybridge motor cruiser with a Mediterranean feel. 43 Atlantique is powered by twin Volvo IPS 500 or 600 of 435 hp, with the later option topping speeds of 35 knots max, and a 30 knots cruising which give an economical consumption of 53 litres per hour engine.
