New Model: Filippetti 26 Navetta

Filippetti has launched the first model of the new Navetta green series line the 26 Navetta in an event held in Rimini on December 2010. This yacht is designed by Pietro Mingarelli in an ecological and Eco-sustainable manner, complying with rigorous principles of environmental, safety and quality regulations, without ever losing sight of the tastes of the owner. The 26 Navetta has therefore been certified with Rina Green Star Yacht certificate a noble accreditation that guarantees environmental protection and energy savings. The 26 Navetta will have two large spaces available. The first is the imposing owner's cabin on the forward deck, which occupies close to half of the total volume of the yacht and is further divided into two areas. From the cabin, by way of a descending internal ladder, a second large space is accessed, which includes a bath with shower or jacuzzi tub and sauna, locker and a further bay. The other large space is found in the stern, on the upper deck. Usually destined for storage of the tender, on the 26 Navetta this has become a large solarium dedicated to the relaxation of the owner and guests. On the 26 Navetta the other undisputed protagonist is natural light which is found everywhere, from the owner's stateroom the windows run 180 degrees toward the bow, to the lower deck cabins, including the VIP cabin located mid ship which features large vertical style port holes. Power is from twin Cat 825hp engines which give a 14 knots top speed, 12 knots cruise, and a range of 2500 nautical miles at the best economic performance.

Projects: Cayman 50 Express, Cayman 57 HT

Italian Cayman Yachts presents two projects both over the fifteen meter dimensions, and to be completed by the end of this year. Pictured above are the renderings for the 50 Express which will also launch this new range by Cayman along the previous Flybridge, Hardtop, and Walk Around lines. The 50 Express is designed by Hot Lab studios. The interior will go out of the usual schematics of this size offering a privacy orientated plan with a lower deck having only two cabins; an owners suite to mid ship, and VIP room to fore. Below is also space for the galley, and the crew room located to mid ship behind the owners cabin, this being in a separate area and having the entrance from the aft part of the saloon. The main deck will be dedicated to living with an L-shaped saloon, and three part patio door joining this area with the aft cockpit. For the 50 Express, Hot Lab keep the much appreciated Cayman walk around deck with a very interesting fore deck settee which is surely hard to find in this size. Power is from twin Cummins 600hp with Cayman estimating a 33 knots top speed with this set up. The Cayman 57 HT will be the third model to join the hard top line which was presented in 2008 with the launch of the 75 flagship designed by Carlo Trezzi. As the 50 Express the 57 HT sees Cayman again trust design duties to Hot Lab studio. Here Hot Lab go for a more modern aggressive exterior, but keeping in line with concepts seen on the 50, as the settee on the fore deck. Interior space is for a three cabin plan, with the third cabin looking to be a transformable affair which can open up and be as a small settee on the lower deck. The galley is located below in between the masters suite to mid ship, and VIP room to fore. Power is from twin Cummins 715hp with Cayman estimating a very promising 33 knots top speed with this set up.

New Model: Prestige 350 Flybridge

A very interesting and expected model from Prestige, this is the 350 Flybridge. Designed by Garroni, with the help of J & J, and Je De Premmorel for the concept the new 350 Flybridge builds on the hull lines of the early 2010 launched NC11, and is to be the entry level smallest model of the Prestige brand. Very stylish looks for a small size flybridge motor cruiser, a spacious aft deck, and interiors are the 350 Flybridge strong points. Living spaces on the main deck offer a C-shaped settee to port side, bar, and helm station to starboard. Below is an L-shaped galley, and the two cabins; owners room to fore, and double guest to port side. In every area the 350 Flybridge surprises for its spaces considering the length of just over eleven meters and this is acquired thanks to the use of stern drive propulsion, which also give better efficiency to the positive, but have higher annual servicing costs on the negative. Power is from twin 220hp Volvo engines which as I said for the NC11 do look a bit small for this size and weight flybridge motor cruiser.

LOA - 11.25 m (36.9ft)
