The shipyard will be responsible for the interior styling and is collaborating with Cor D. Rover to produce the exterior styling for the 22m/72ft Z72, retaining the shipyard’s characteristic styling with an S-shaped deck line for a wider stern and more curved surfaces for performance and on-trend styling. The beam of 6m/19.6ft will create large social areas inside and out, further enhanced by large windows in the hull and superstructure for bright accommodation and shared living areas. A large swim platform will create a sunbathing area beside the water where the group can also spread out with the water toys.
Three large cabins consisting of a master suite and two double cabins will accommodate up to six guests, and for power, triple Volvo Penta IPS engines allow for a top speed of 40 knots.
