Sarzana Flybridge Motor Cruiser Fire

In the late afternoon of December 14 at around 1700  hours a fire was seen going up in Amelia on the right side of the Magra river.  The fire involved a flybridge motor cruiser of about fourteen meters in length.  Fire extinguishing crews first from Spezia and then from Sarzana went immediately to extinguish the fire, which could also be seen from a afar.  No injuries and further damages have been reported.  

The boat in the fire is a Ferretti 44 Altura S produced from 1989 up to 92.  The Ferretti 44 Altura S in its time became a best seller for its timeless and modern lines, and three double cabins comfortable accommodation.  The model came as a redevelopment of the 44 Altura model launched in 1986 with a redesign of the super structure, and updated interior.  The 44 Altura S was designed by Antioco Pusceddu who designed all the Ferretti models up until 1990.  The Ferretti 44 Altura S sold in around forty units and was at the time only second in sales to the fifty plus sales of the 52 Altura S produced in more or less the same period with a similar design.  The 44 Altura S was replaced by the Giovanni Zuccon designed 45 Altura-145 model in 92.

On records and up till today Burger built eighty four navy and military vessels.

Project: Benetti Motopanfilo 37M

During a virtual press conference Benetti presented the Motopanfilo 37M, a yacht permeated by immense charm that tips its hat to the 1960s Motopanfilo style epitomised by Benetti, but without any sense of nostalgia or vintage intentions. This model’s evocative and timeless style was described by Francesco Struglia, the designer of the yacht’s exteriors, and Claudio Lazzarini and Carl Pickering from Lazzarini Pickering the firm of architects engaged to design the interiors. Motopanfilo 37M will be a three deck super yacht with accommodation for ten guests in five cabins.  Crew space is for seven in three cabins.

New Model: Alia 27m Atlantico

It is well established that a chase boat must complement the mothership, but Turkey’s Alia Yachts has gone one step further. In delivering the 27m Atlantico, Alia has managed to extend the larger boat by providing a platform that fully matches it in terms of look, quality and function. The complex project fused naval architecture from Lateral with Alia’s shipbuilding know-how, which extended to every element of the interior furnishing.  Build captain and skipper Tolga Han refers candidly to the challenges involved in such an interesting and unique design. First up, the hull needed to be capable of high speeds, so it was designed with a broad beam of 8.35m and three of Volvo’s most powerful 1000hp engines. This makes it possible for Atlantico to plane despite her size. It also gives her responsive handling and a very sea-kindly motion, even in heavy seas. Besides the stability the broad hull imparts under way, two Seakeeper 26 gyro stabilizers keep her steady at rest.  Naturally, the exterior look of the boat reflects that of the 55m mothership, Atlante. She is an aggressive explorer-type yacht, and her distinguished owner therefore required an equally capable looking chase boat. The aluminium hull shares a lighter shade of Atlante’s grey DuPont metallic topcoat system, and features similar circular windows. The angular deckhouse surmounted by a military-looking mast also echoes the mothership. With a light-caulked teak deck, pale-coloured sofas and sun pads and dark, glossy columns in the deckhouse, Atlantico subtly reinterprets the feel of the mothership. But there is no mistaking the serious intent of this 27m yacht. The blend of cool and comfort continues below, where there are two impressive double cabins with large freestanding beds. Gloss white walls contrast firmly with the dark, lavish wood of furniture and bulkhead panelling, all cleverly lit by indirect light. Small details strike you, such as the multiplicity of storage, hidden behind tessellating wooden panels with flush opening mechanisms.  There are all the amenities required of a large yacht, with two sophisticated shower rooms and a very capable crew galley aft, together with accommodation for up to four crew.
