Project: Enterprise Marine EM 490

A project from Italian builder Enterprise Marine, which continues to upgrade its line made up of flybridge cruisers and yachts from 42 up to 60 feet. This new EM 490 project will be the second in size model from the Adriatic sea based builder, and takes a lot of the design element from the 2008 introduced EM 600 model. The plans of the EM 490 show a spacious boat and surprisingly it does not include a full beam cabin, choosing a traditional three cabins two head layout with the master stateroom with en-suite head to fore, and VIP cabin located mid ship port side looking of a relatively similar size. There is also a fully equipped crew cabin aft. The upper saloon looks also spacious offering a c-shaped settee for relaxing, galley, helm station to port side, and a forward c-shaped settee for dining. Power will be twin 590hp diesel engines with Enterprise Marine estimating top speeds of about 32 knots.

Projects: Maritimo A60 Aegean Enclosed, Maritimo 56 Cruising Motoryacht

Australian boat builder Maritimo presents the project of two further upcoming models to join its existing range of cruisers and yachts. The first of these pictured above is the A60 Aegean Enclosed, and this is a three, closed upper bridge version for the A60 Aegean Flybridge model presented in 2008. With the enclosed bridge the A60 Aegean Enclosed takes a whole new dimension and modifies all the interior plan versus the model on which it is based. The main deck presents a different more spacious saloon, now with twin spacious l-shaped settees, galley aft and an internal staircase leading to the third deck. Up in the third upper deck enclosed area one finds a central located helm station, and two settees to both sides. Below the standard layout is also different offering a 3 cabin, 3 head version with a mid ship located owners cabin. Power for the A60 Aegean Enclosed is twin C12 715hp Cats, of which Maritimo expects a similar 25 knots cruising speed as the standard Flybridge version.

The other project set to be unveiled this month is the new 56 Cruising Motoryacht, and will be the fourth and second in size model of this range from Maritimo. The Cruising Motoryacht is a very interesting range offering hybrid looks, associated with a Sport Fisherman but adding to it comforts coming from Motor Yachts, like deep side deck, extended integrated bathing platform, and an aft deck area more made to relax and socialize then the usual open plan associated with the gaming machines. This 56 Cruising Motoryacht is expected with great anticipation mostly for pushing also the envelope of this range to a more modern direction and will offer an enclosed bridge, an interior with 3 cabins 2 heads, and an abaft located galley. Power will be twin Cats 715hp which will give a cruising speed of about 25 knots to this 27 toner.

The new Grande, Italian word meaning big, will be Sarnico biggest model at 80 feet of length, what is normally associated with pocket sized Super Yacht status. As all this respected builder range design is by the able renowned hands of Nuvolari Lenard. The Venice design duo now have been long collaborators to the North Italian builder since 1995 when the yard presented it still in production and successful 45 model. Hull shape also continues the collaboration with the renowned Brunellos Acampora Victory Design. As seen in the latest Sport Yachts of this size the Grande will also offer a Sport Bridge above the hardtop, offering a sun lounger as standard with the option of a second helm station in the Command Bridge version. The Grande seems also to abandon the much loved Sarnico aft cabin, a feature in all its models starting from the 45. Power will be by twin MAN engines at 1550hp or the optional 1800hp.
