Sessa Marine C68 euros 21,04 m

To design this 68-foot yacht, Sessa Marine was inspired by the sports cars of the 1960s. The shipyard announced a revolutionary hull, requiring two years of research (we will know more at the time of its presentation in Cannes). The shipyard has focused on luminosity with numerous windows and portholes in the hull and exterior comfort with numerous sunbathing areas in the bow and stern, not to mention the very large bathing platform.

Regarding the layout, the shipyard offers several versions of the main deck with an open or semi-enclosed kitchen. The same goes for the cabins where the owner will have the choice between two very large double cabins and a saloon and up to 4 cabins (two doubles and two singles).

Numarine will present two models of its Explorer range, the 32 XP (European premiere) and the 26 XP (world premiere), expedition superyachts. These boats, designed for long-distance cruising, have a range of 3,000 miles and feature a similar futuristic design, with angular windows, straight lines and a vertical bow. In addition, they have been equipped with noise and vibration reduction systems.

The 26 XP is designed with a choice of a semi-planing or displacement hull. Inside, there are four large cabins, while the outside is a great place to relax, with a very large sun deck in the cockpit and a beautiful lounge on the foredeck.

One of the main characteristics of the boat is its imposing flybridge which covers almost 2/3 of the length of the hull, i.e. about 16 meters long and a little less than 100 square meters of useful surface. Enough space to store a 5.5 m tender.

In the displacement version, the 32 XP reaches a maximum speed of 13.5 knots and a cruising speed of 9 knots. At a speed of 8 knots, the yacht has a range of 8,000 miles. Finally, in the semi-planing version, the 32 XP benefits from more powerful engines and reaches a speed of 28 knots.

For the interiors, designer Achille Salvagni proposes an unconventional approach to the living room by abandoning the typical distinction between living and dining areas and creating in their place a large space on the main deck, which can be transformed into a dining room when necessary by lifting a built-in table.

Two propulsion solutions are available, one with a pair of 1,650 HP Man engines and the other with two 1,800 HP Man units, for a top speed of 29 knots and a cruising speed of 26 knots.
