New 36 m power catamaran yacht ‘quaranta Plus USA’ by Curvelle Yachts

February 13, 2013

The all-new 36 m power catamaran yacht ‘quaranta Plus USA’ by Curvelle Yachts is based on the successful 110′ charter yacht quaranta design, that is to be launched soon. The magnificent motor yacht ‘Plus USA’ features the same fluid lines by the yard’s in-house designer and stylist Mauro Gamboi from Italy.

118-foot luxury power catamaran yacht 'quaranta Plus USA' by Curvelle Yachts

Originally conceived by request from an American client, the Curvelle design team have refined the concept of “informal living”. While the vessel has grown in length by 2 meters over her soon to be launched “sistership”, the largest difference is the layout of the upper deck, which has been enclosed to accommodate the pilothouse and a skylounge, allowing a “country galley” to be incorporated into the “main living deck”, forward, in place of the traditional wheelhouse location on a ” triple deck” yacht.

“Americans tend to be less formal in their approach to boating”, states Kevin Ralph, North American representative for Curvelle Yachts, ” and the informal “country galley” has become a staple part of the design in most American orientated vessels in this size range.”

Indeed the US version of the ‘Plus’ yacht features the eat-in, “country galley” forward on the “linving deck”, which not only allows for a fantastic vantage point, with a 180 degree view forward, but also offers access to a large dining area on the raised foredeck, which can be covered by a sun shade, for great al fresco dining, while in port or at anchor.

While the quaranta Plus USA superyacht still retains Curvelle’s signature, large, on deck “convertible” guest cabins (4 in total) the forward section of the main deck has been designed as a palatial 760 sg. ft. owners suite, more akin to that found on 55m+ superyachts. With large picture windows and featuring a king size bed, dual walk-in closets, his and hers bathrooms, plus an ensuite study, in addition to the option of an adjoining gym/spa room, which can also be accessed from the companionway.

Moving the galley from the port hull, to the upper deck, also creates more space in the crew quarters, with the option to add an additional crew cabin for 2, giving the Captain his owne double cabin in the starboard hull. Other features include a larger tender platform, which allows boats or submarines of up to 19′ (6.0m) to be lowered into the water, while doubling as a swimming pool/spa when in the water. The Curvelle naval architects, Incat Crowther, hav also re-designed the hull form, allowing for a shallower draft to allow more extensive cruising in the Bahamas.

Construction of 33m power catamaran Quaranta well underway with Curvelle

September 22, 2011

Curvelle is pleased to announce completion of the hull of the catamaran yacht Quaranta, in close cooperation with Logos Marine as principal build contractor.

Four years of development went into the 33m Curvelle Catamaran Yacht Poject, which resulted in a hull that boasts many innovative design features and some unique selling points.

With Lila Lou taking on interior and exterior styling and Incat Crowther onboard as specialist catamaran naval architects, the power catamaran Quaranta’s design has already proven to be an award-winning one. Due to a flexible layout, instigated by Luuk V. van Zanten, the main driver behind the project, the vessel’s six double cabins can be converted into three VIP suites, six twins, doubles or any combination of these, while still comfortably topping crew space requirements in compliance with strict new crew accommodation regulations. To assure optimal panorama views, all guest cabins on the motor yacht Quaranta are located on the main deck and fitted with huge 2.5m x 0.9m windows, accommodating a company of up to twelve guests.

The RINA has certified M/Y Quaranta with their unrestricted range-classification for commercial yachts and as a third edition MCA. Measuring 33.70 x 9 metres, she will be an ocean-going catamaran with the interior space equivalent of a 40 metres monohull vessel, due to her four deck layout, and her two metres of extra beam.

Luuk comments: “With her transatlantic range and a cruising speed of 22 knots, the Curvelle quaranta will be on the market at a highly competitive introductory price, staying well below 10 million Euros”. This means quaranta approximately halves the common price of a monohull vessel, similar in volume and performance.

With construction solely based on in-house funding, the Quaranta motor yacht is currently in full production in Tuzla, Istanbul, with a delivery set for November 2012.
