			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong> The Perini Navi Group has closed the year 2011 on a positive note with the signing of a sales contract on a new 69m sailing yacht hull C2227. Three contracts signed by the <a href="http://www.charterworld.com/index.html?sub=Perini-Navi">Perini Navi Group</a> in 2011 including the newest 69m superyacht and two 60m sailing yachts signed last summer. The new 69m yacht C2227 is the second longest of the <a href="http://www.charterworld.com/index.html?sub=yacht-results&amp;builder=perini+navi-22">Perini Navi fleet</a> after <a href="http://www.charterworld.com/index.html?sub=yacht-charter&amp;charter=sailing-yacht-maltese-falcon-1096">The Maltese Falcon charter yacht</a>, a massive 88m sailing yacht. Perini Navi Sail yacht C2227 will be delivered in 2015. </strong></p>
<div id="attachment_49969" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 675px"><a rel="attachment wp-att-49969" href="http://www.charterworld.com/news/69m-sailing-yacht-c2227-sold-perini-navi-69m-superyacht-series/perini-navi-69m-sailing-yacht-hull-c2227"><img class="size-medium wp-image-49969" title="Perini Navi 69m sailing yacht hull C2227" src="http://www.charterworld.com/news/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/Perini-Navi-69m-sailing-yacht-hull-C2227-665x344.jpg" alt="Perini Navi 69m sailing yacht hull C2227" width="665" height="344" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Perini Navi 69m sailing yacht hull C2227</p></div>
<p>Sailing yacht C2227 was designed and created by the Perini Navi Group with additional consulting from <a href="http://www.charterworld.com/index.html?sub=yacht-results&amp;chartertitle_filter=&amp;location_filter=&amp;prices_filter=&amp;builder[]=191&amp;builder[]=1067&amp;tag=&amp;month_filter=&amp;guests_filter=&amp;submit=Search+Now!&amp;form_name=product_search&amp;sub=yacht-results">Philippe Briand</a>, and is the latest expression of the high standards of design, technology and quality that have always characterized Perini Navi yachts. Innovation, elegance and comfort at the highest levels possible are just some of the elements that have allowed the Perini Navi Group to distinguish itself over the years and successfully confirm the value of its brand, its team and of its products.</p>
<p>The interior layout of the Perini Navi hull C2227 was designed by the Perini Navi Design Office and will be completed in conjunction with the American interior design studio PH Design.</p>
<p>At the end of the year 2011 the Perini Group’s orders amount to about 170 million Euro, with six yachts sold and currently under construction. The Group has also invested in the construction of two sailing yacht hulls, of 38 and 60m, that can be sold and consigned within the next two years.</p>
<p>The past year has seen the launching of the <a href="http://www.charterworld.com/index.html?sub=yacht-charter&amp;charter=sailing-yacht-fidelis-6381">sailing yacht Fidelis</a>, a successful charter yacht that was the tenth yacht in the 56m series,  the 55m <a href="http://www.charterworld.com/index.html?sub=yacht-charter&amp;charter=motor-yacht-galileo-g-6522">motor yacht Galileo G</a>, the second launching to date of the Picchiotti brand’s Vitruvius® series; and <a href="http://www.charterworld.com/index.html?sub=yacht-charter&amp;charter=sailing-yacht-clan-viii-7198">superyacht Clan VIII</a>, the fourth yacht in the 45m series.</p>
<p>With a fleet of 53 yachts on the water- 51 sailing yachts and two motor yachts- the <a href="http://www.charterworld.com/index.html?sub=Perini-Navi">Perini Navi Group</a> is the world leader in the design and construction of large luxury superyachts. In 2007 the Group began to build motor yachts with the brand name Picchiotti and the series name Vitruvius, thus re-launching the historic Picchiotti shipyard acquired in the early 1990’s.</p>
<p>The Group is made up of the Perini Navi shipyard in Viareggio, <a href="http://www.charterworld.com/index.html?sub=italy-yacht-charter">Italy</a> founded in the 1980’s by Fabio Perini who invented and developed a revolutionary automatic sail control system. Another division is the Picchiotti shipyard in La Spezia where the Group constructs its motor yachts and concentrates most of its refitting work, and the Perini Istanbul shipyard in Yildiz, <a href="http://www.charterworld.com/index.html?sub=turkey-yacht-charter">Turkey</a> where its hulls and deck structures are produced. Perini Navi <a href="http://www.charterworld.com/index.html?sub=america-yacht-charter">USA</a> is a commercial division of the Group for both new and previously owned Perini Navi Group yachts.</p>

<p><strong>More About South Pacific Yacht Charters:</strong></p>
<p>A yacht charter vacation in the South Pacific Islands (Tahiti, Tonga, Fiji, New Caledonia, and Vanuatu) was once a treasure experienced by only a dedicated few. The Pacific Islands and their people are unique in culture and tradition. The most obvious thing each island has in common is the islanders’ friendly and hospitable nature whereby visitors arriving on sailing charters, are treated as honoured guests. A superyacht charter vacation in Tahiti, French Polynesia, is the best way to explore the ‘jewel of the South Pacific’. It really is the most beautiful place in the world and the only way to completely appreciate the Islands of Tahiti, is by water. A crewed luxury yacht will provide you with a unique opportunity to explore the Tahitian Islands, which are otherwise, difficult to get around. Charter guests have been captured by the beauty and romance of Tahiti, time and time again. Tahiti is a French archipelago, which lies in the middle of the Pacific Ocean roughly between Australia and America, officially known as the Society Islands. Fiji is also a beautiful place for a yacht charter holiday. Imagine white sandy beaches, aquamarine water and swaying palms trees. Many areas of the Fijian Islands are inaccessible to tourism because of their remoteness, which gives yachts a real scope for adventure in these waters….read more <a href="http://www.charterworld.com/index.html?sub=south-pacific-yacht-charter">about South Pacific Yacht Charters</a>.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>The Picchiotti 50 metre Superyacht EXUMA is the first motor yacht built by Perini Navi from the Vitruvius® series.  The new generation, Picchiotti Vitruvius®-series motor yacht, born from the collaboration between Vitruvius Ltd, Philippe Briand and the Perini Navi Group, is conceived with a focus on top efficiency for fully autonomous, reliable and elegant navigation.</strong></p>

<p>These concepts of the Picchiotti &#8211; Vitruvius series are realized in the hull and superstructure design, the organization of the guest and crew accommodations and the onboard equipment that will allow for the discovery and exploration of the surrounding environment.</p>

<p><strong><br />
Efficiency</strong></p>
<p>Philippe Briand, naval architect and designer of the Vitruvius® concept, was inspired by the streamlined principles of sailboat hulls, where the lines of design, volume distribution and the study of weights are optimized to attain the best efficiency.</p>
<p>The aluminium hull, follows the principles of the Briand Optimized Stretched (BOS®) Hull and is characterized by streamlined, limited waterline length and a straight and deep bow. The BOS® Hull, and two zero speed roll stabilisers endow the hull with exceptional cruising stability. Combined with the installed power, these features ensure long-term navigation in total safety and tranquillity. <a href="http://www.charterworld.com/index.html?sub=yacht-charter&amp;charter=exuma-6218">Motor yacht Exuma&#8217;s</a> gross tonnage is under 500 tons, and displaces about 400 tons. She features a reduced draft of 2.3 metres that allows navigation in shallow waters.</p>

the proportions between hull and superstructure allowed for large spaces dedicated to ensuring privacy among guests onboard, equipment for exploration, stowage of materials. This was obtained by introducing double independent stairs and two walkways.</p>

<p><strong>Exploration</strong></p>
<p><a href="http://www.charterworld.com/index.html?sub=yacht-charter&amp;charter=exuma-6218">Exuma motor yacht</a> was designed with a strong aptitude for exploration in mind. Indeed, it allows a range of over 5,500 miles at a speed of 12 knots. This is attained due to the 75,000 litres of fuel and 17,000 litres of fresh water tankage. A particular characteristic of this yacht is the capability (thanks to 115 dedicated m2) of stowing large amounts of equipment and gear on board in order to be able to venture out into the most beautiful and remote areas of the world.</p>
<p>Inside the two fore lateral garages with gull-wing doors actuated by hydraulic pistons, Exuma MY houses a 16.4’ amphibious vehicle, completely customised with Iveco Campagnola mechanical components and frame, and a Hov Pod 12’ hovercraft.</p>
<p>Further, superyacht Exuma has additional space to host 2 tenders, measuring 21’ and 14’, 2 electric scooters, 2 Seabobs and 1 Sea-Doo RXT 250 jet ski. The yacht is also equipped with diving areas and equipment.</p>
<div id="attachment_13856" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 675px"><a rel="attachment wp-att-13856" href="http://www.charterworld.com/news/picchiotti-motor-yacht-exuma-vitruvius-series/salon-super-yacht-exuma-photo-credit-to-giuliano-sargentini-and-michele-lombardo-m1-media-by-courtesy-of-perini-navi"><img class="size-medium wp-image-13856" title="Salon Super Yacht Exuma - photo credit to Giuliano Sargentini and Michele Lombardo-M1 Media by courtesy of Perini Navi" src="http://www.charterworld.com/news/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/Salon-Super-Yacht-Exuma-photo-credit-to-Giuliano-Sargentini-and-Michele-Lombardo-M1-Media-by-courtesy-of-Perini-Navi-665x443.jpg" alt="" width="665" height="443" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Salon Super Yacht Exuma - photo credit to Giuliano Sargentini and Michele Lombardo-M1 Media by courtesy of Perini Navi</p></div>
<p><strong><br />
Exterior</strong></p>
<p>The stylistic elements of the Vitruvius® project, motoryacht Exuma, are embodied in the optimal balance between straight and curved lines, together with the presence of large glass windows that confer high visibility and luminosity to every deck of the yacht. In particular, the large, double-curvature, bombé glass windows of the bridge deck offer a spectacular full-circle panorama. These windows distinguish the yacht’s lines and make them unique.</p>
<p>The use of titanium in all the external handrails combine extremely high reliability even in the most extreme conditions of use with perfect chromatic harmony with the yacht’s hull. On the superstructure, two ventilation grills integrated within the yacht’s line stand out as an aesthetic element, while the elegant mast for communication antennae, the navigation radars and the powerful searchlight is arranged on the superstructure roof.</p>

<p><strong>Bridge deck</strong></p>
<p>The bridge deck of the <a href="http://www.charterworld.com/index.html?sub=yacht-charter&amp;charter=exuma-6218">M/Y Exuma</a> is characterized by large glass doors and the spacious side deck conceived to enjoy a full view of the surrounding panorama. This deck can be accessed either through the internal stair in the lobby or through the two external corridors. Besides the helm, the captain’s office and a pantry, the bridge deck features a spacious saloon with L-shaped sofa, a coffee table, armchairs and an entertainment area. The outdoor living concept embodied by this yacht is ensured by two comfortable chaise-lounges for sunbathing and a large, accessorized Jacuzzi with integrated banquette, equipped also with useful peaks for stowage of materials. Access to the second boarding ladder, designed for substantially high docks, is located along the starboard corridor.</p>
<p>From the external corridors, in which two side control stations for docking maneuvers are located, we access the totally open flush deck, that can also be used by guests as a party/sunbathing area. Here, two deck hatches allow access and use of the rescue boat and the jet ski, both handled by the davit crane located beside them. The stern maneuvering area, recessed and protected with windlasses, is equipped for all maneuvers typical of this type of yacht.</p>

<p>Two practical ladders, accessible through the side decks  of the motor yacht Exuma, situated amidships, lead to the bridge deck access. The starboard deck, served by the main boarding ladder for easy guest boarding, leads to the side entrance of the main lobby. The port deck constitutes the crew’s main entrance, contains the engine room’s emergency exit ladder and several fittings for side docking.</p>
<p>An elegant and functional glass sliding door leads to the entrance of the main open-space saloon, characterized by large glass windows that confer exquisite visibility and luminosity to the yacht. The living area, equipped with every latest generation entertainment device, is comprised of three C-shaped sofas located on the port side, while the dining area hosts a table that can be modified, is capable of seating up to 10 people, and is completed by a useful pantry.

<p><strong>Foreword by Philippe Briand</strong></p>
<p>“There is no more delightful way of life for a ‘sea lover’ than on a yacht ‐ whether it be a sailing or motor yacht. It gives me genuine pleasure to be involved in the realisation of ‘sea lovers’ dreams as their naval architect. I hope that by listening to clients and nurturing their aspirations I can even transcend their wishes.</p>
<p>Yachts symbolise the desire to live life to the fullest and are always the realisation of a dream. My yachts are a true escape for all the owners and their guests. However, in today’s world I find it hard to justify the realisation of our dream might affect the basic livelihood of the next generations, which is why eco‐credentials are so important to us. The yachting industry has been driven forward by the ideas of our exceptional clients. They are clients with real ambitions and vision, people that innovate and are at the forefront of their industries. It is my opinion that those qualities, combined with the industry’s excellence, should be the drivers of true progress in our field as well as in all fields we touch.</p>
<p>From the beginning, the most basic tenet of Vitruvius® yacht design been our determination to ensure as much sustainability and ecological awareness as possible. We have put into practice what others have only talked about as possibilities for the future.”</p>
<p>Many people have tried to conceive an ecologically responsible yacht, Vitruvius® Yachts and <a href="http://www.charterworld.com/index.html?sub=Perini-Navi" target="_blank">Perini Navi</a> are the very first to launch a yacht following these principles. <a href="http://www.charterworld.com/index.html?sub=yacht-charter&amp;charter=exuma-6218">Exuma motor yacht</a> is here.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Interior designer Christian Liaigre</strong> <strong>for the Alloy Yachts  Sailing Yacht Vertigo 220&#8242; talks about the interior design process. </strong></p>
<div id="attachment_13149" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 675px"><a rel="attachment wp-att-13149" href="http://www.charterworld.com/news/yacht-vertigo-christian-liaigre-interior-design-process/philippe-briand-220-yacht-vertigo"><img class="size-medium wp-image-13149" title="Philippe Briand designed yacht Vertigo - constructed by Alloy Yachts" src="http://www.charterworld.com/news/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/Philippe-Briand-220-yacht-Vertigo-665x440.jpg" alt="" width="665" height="440" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Philippe Briand designed yacht Vertigo - constructed by Alloy Yachts</p></div>
<p>&#8220;The Interior design process has started from a client&#8217;s request that the sailing yacht Vertigo must feel “URBAN AT SEA&#8221;.<br />
As they plan to stay long periods on-board, they want to feel in a light atmosphere instead of the more traditional &#8220;nautical signature&#8221;.</p>
<p>The general palette is providing a large amount of white surface combined with tinted walnuts and black sandblasted woods.<br />
All complementary furniture has been custom design in order to match perfectly with the &#8220;sport chic&#8221; spirit of the Vertigo yacht.</p>
<p>The layout increase perspective effect. The boat longitudinal lines can be read all along the internal space because many partition walls are stopped before they connect to the hull. On the main deck of the<a href="http://www.charterworld.com/index.html?sub=yacht-charter&amp;charter=sailing-yacht-vertigo-6084" target="_blank"> superyacht Vertigo</a>, three big Black cores shelter the staircases in aluminium and some service area.</p>
<p>The long sinuous longitudinal side cabinet creates the link in between all the space. It extends visually the deck and can be read as the edge of an internal cockpit&#8221;.</p>
