Absolute 52 Fly

At 16.76 metres in length, the Absolute 52 Fly is a luxurious ship – with dimensions that match the Italian shipyard’s self-imposed claim to be pioneering and ground-breaking. The shipyard calls this “Absolute Direction”. This includes offering features on 52 feet and three largely stepless decks with a feeling of comfort and space that are otherwise found on much larger yachts.
The huge amount of space can be seen in the full-width owner’s cabin in the bow area, which is completely private. The VIP cabin amidships offers plenty of space as a second owner’s cabin. A further guest cabin and the crew cabin offer retreats from the spacious open deck areas, turning the ship into a villa with sea views for 14 people. With the difference that the crew can decide which bay offers the most beautiful view at any time thanks to motorisation with 2 Volvo Penta engines (D8-IPS800).

Azimut Magellano 60

With the three-deck Magellano 60, the Italian shipyard Azimut has squared the circle: sleek Italian elegance without compromising on space. To further enhance the experience of boundless openness, particular emphasis was placed on panoramic window areas and unobstructed views. Azimut calls the cockpit the “Infinity Terrace” – with an unobstructed view of the sea thanks to the transparent rear wall. The Magellano 60 is equipped with trim tabs to ensure that travel comfort is not compromised even at high speeds. Two 760 hp engines give her a top speed of 26 knots. But you’d much rather cruise at walking pace on such a chic yacht.

Fairline Squadron 58

With the Squadron 58, the English premium shipyard Fairline offers a motor yacht under 60 feet with the appearance of a yacht around 80 feet. The shipyard’s special trick: the “Beach Club” balconies on both sides, which can be folded out if required. They not only extend the deck, but also provide easy access to the sea. The interior is designed to be particularly understated in order to create a zone of calm and security on board. Thanks to the modular design, the cockpit furniture can be positioned individually. Nothing stands in the way of a Mediterranean feel-good factor thanks to the window front, which allows almost 360-degree all-round visibility. In addition to the Squadron 58, Fairline is also bringing the Targa 40 to Düsseldorf.

Omikron OT 60

The lifestyle of sailing, the comfort of motor boating: The OT 60 from the Greek shipyard Omikron combines the best of both worlds. Its exclusively developed eco-cruise hull with carbon reinforcements allows for such a quiet and economical ride that you almost feel like you’re on a sailing yacht. But the OT 60 is not dependent on the wind. It can cover 1,000 nautical miles at 12 knots, with the 300 hp diesel twin consuming 1.25 liters per hour. There is as much space on deck as on a deck saloon yacht. The saloon is connected to the cockpit via glass doors. There is a choice of three or four cabins, each with its own bathroom. Natural lighting via skylights is particularly important to Omikron, so that every crew member feels like a VIP guest.

Steeler 50 TA

The abbreviation “TA” stands for “Trans Atlantic” on the Dutch motor yacht Steeler 50 TA. Made of steel and aluminum, the semi-glider offers a transatlantic range, whether on the Rhine or on the open sea. To achieve this, the tank capacity has been increased to 5,000 liters and a Wingit kite system has been integrated. This towing kite uses the wind energy to save fuel and ensures the first 4 or 5 knots of speed without diesel consumption of the two Volvo Penta D8-600s.
To ensure that the 16.50 m long and 4.93 m wide ship can cross the ocean well, the shipyard has ensured that all technical systems are fully redundant. This included the radar, night vision equipment, dual radio systems, satellite telephone and other state-of-the-art equipment for a carefree crossing. The starry sky is always visible above the 2.40 x 3.20 meter XXL sliding glass roof.

Sunseeker Predator 75

The Predator 75 is a performance yacht without false modesty, designed as much for power as for luxurious comfort. On the outside, the color mix of Midnight Grey and Jet Black on the arrow-like hull is impressive, while the interior is equipped with a refrigerator and freezer, dishwasher, wine cooler, electric grill and even a walk-in closet. A high-performance air conditioning system, hi-fi and TV are on board, as is a 19-inch Simrad display. The Predator 75 cracks the 40 knot top speed with 3,800 hp. The underwater lighting makes it clear that this is not just about performance, but also about making a grand entrance.

Sunseeker Ocean 182

The luxury class is experimenting. Sunseeker have ventured into a new deck layout with their Ocean 182. On the 27-meter yacht, the helm station has been moved to the enclosed flybridge, creating a living area in the saloon that can compete with a superyacht. The owner’s cabin amidships stretches across the entire width of the hull. Like the VIP cabin in the bow and the two other cabins, it is equipped with its own bathroom. With the highest engine power of twice 2,000 hp, the Ocean 182 can reach 27 knots. At a cruising speed of 12 knots, she can cover 1,800 nautical miles. This yacht is suitable as a main residence.
