De Antonio Yachts announces the launch, for the upcoming season, of the D36 Cabin — a more versatile variant of the successful and multi-award-winning D36 Open, now specifically designed for more demanding climates.
The D36 Cabin features a fully enclosed, perimeter cabin architecture on the main deck, along with a more complete interior layout and multiple solutions for a more comprehensive cruising program, while preserving the brand’s walkaround and sporty DNA.
A new architecture: total protection without giving up the Walkaround concept.
The D36 Cabin introduces a fully enclosed cabin to provide maximum comfort in the central area of the main deck, where the helm seats, the U-shaped passenger sofa and the fully equipped galley module are located. Everything is protected by a perimeter glass structure with sliding side doors, a rear accordion-style opening and a rigid roof with overhead opening, allowing direct connection between interior and exterior spaces and enabling eOicient natural ventilation. The optional hot/cold air-conditioning system further enhances comfort in any weather conditions.
The roof can be configured in three versions: a fixed panoramic glass roof; a panoramic glass roof fixed aft and sliding forward; or a fully opening electric sliding fabric roof.
New layout: functionality, comfort and versatility.
Faithful to the brand’s philosophy, the D36 Cabin has been designed with performance and eOiciency as priorities. Its layout remains impeccably symmetrical, with fully centered helm and co-pilot seats, enhancing driving experience, visibility and onboard circulation, reinforcing the Walkaround concept both outside and inside.
The generous U-shaped sofa from the Open version is retained and enhanced with a set of convertible teak-finish tables, allowing not only comfortable dining for up to eight people, but also conversion into a large double bed, complementing the two double cabins in the interior.
The centrally positioned multifunction island-style galley-bar oOers multiple uses and possibilities: two 49L refrigerators, ceramic cooktop or grill, microwave, ample storage spaces, waste management solutions and even the option of a practical retractable television.
A deckhouse designed to enjoy a fully enclosed space with maximum comfort while remaining open and connected to the outdoors, strategically complemented by indirect lighting and a surround sound system.
Designed for life on board.
With generous deck spaces in a day-boat layout, the interior surprises with its size and functionality. From the central corridor, access is provided to the forward master cabin with double bed and door for enhanced privacy, a fully equipped and independent bathroom, and finally a spacious aft cabin with twin beds. This configuration guarantees privacy and functionality, and together with the convertible double bed in the deckhouse, the D36 Cabin can accommodate up to six people sleeping comfortably on board.
Outboard performance and eNiciency.
The brand’s renowned patented innovation of concealed outboard engines gives the D36 Cabin all the comfort, performance and practicality of outboard propulsion, while also oOering a generous and comfortable aft bathing platform and an elegant, sophisticated design.
Available with Mercury engine configurations ranging from twin 350 hp to twin 400 hp, combined with high-performance stepped hull lines, the D36 Cabin ensures safe, eOicient and sporty navigation, with an optimal cruising speed of around 27 knots and a top speed exceeding 40 knots.
Ready for adventure.
Like its twin, the D36 Cabin features an impressive storage space for a small auxiliary tender, now also oOering the option to configure this area as additional storage, including chests capable of holding up to 130 liters of refrigeration or sports equipment.
Options such as fishing rod holders, ski and wakeboard racks, or bars on the hardtop further enhance the model’s suitability for sporting activities, making the D36 Cabin probably the most complete and versatile model in its segment.
