It is a boat that traces the tradition enriched with new innovative stylistic solutions that make it unique. Large windows allow a perfect harmony between the interior spaces and the external ones; the sun deck is now become a trademark of our boats and a beach club novelty, an ideal space to meet direct contact with the sea. I’m also very proud of this superyacht because we designed the interiors and I think the result looks very satisfying».
