When talking about superyachts, you could imagine that the larger the vessel, the greater the sophistication and comforts it offers inside. But in a sector where work is also being done to create increasingly efficient ships, size can be a determining factor. It is for this reason that the prestigious international design studio Officina Armare has chosen to create an incredibly elegant superyacht but with a truly compact size, which revolutionizes the standards of maritime luxury.
The new superyacht named Espada is a boat designed to bring together the best of two worlds. It measures only 40 meters in length, a size noticeably smaller than its competition. And, at the same time, it offers excellent maneuverability, highly efficient performance and has nothing to envy of boats twice its size in terms of premium features and finishes.
It has four decks full of all kinds of luxuries, from an outdoor gym to two swimming pools, a spectacular extendable bathing area, several dining areas and lounges, a bar and interiors with an elegance more typical of a mansion than a superyacht.
With a sharp inverted bow that ensures smooth and fast sailing even in turbulent waters, the Espada boasts a classic silhouette in which every surface is designed for leisure and relaxation. The design studio's intention has been to create a holiday destination in itself, not just a means of transportation.
The terrace converts into an outdoor dining room so guests can enjoy a gourmet dinner under the stars. There is another more formal dining room located near the pool with views of the water area. Finally, it has another dining space in the bow, where you can enjoy endless views of the sea and the surrounding landscape.
The Espada has the capacity to accommodate ten passengers in five of its cabins and a crew of nine people in individual rooms. The master bedroom has a private terrace and an impressive marble bathroom with golden accessories and incredible direct views of the sea.
All interiors, whether in the rooms, lounges or bar, feature high-quality finishes: high-quality fabrics in earth tones, marble, furniture with noble materials, golden details and large windows that go from floor to ceiling. .
It is powered by two Caterpillar C32 engines that deliver 1,925 HP of power each and achieve a maximum speed of 18 knots (33.3 km/h) for a range of 3,600 nautical miles (6,667 km).
At the moment, it is only a concept and Officina Armare does not detail when it will start developing this superyacht, so there is no information yet on what its price will be. To get an idea of what this famous design studio is capable of offering, you can take a look at the following video, where another of their creations appears.
