A sleek catamaran concept by Italian firm, Hydro Tec captures the Mediterranean within its design. As per Hydro Tec, this concept is “designed for long summers abroad or winters in the warm waters of the Red Sea, equally suitable for navigation in Nordic scenarios.”
There is an emphasis on sharply cut lines and an airy feel as is evident with how it looks. “The exterior is conceived with clean yet sinuous lines, embellished by a distinctive lighting element that emphasizes the arch that stretches from the expansive bow to the stern, bestowing grandeur and character to the entire design,” says Richard Partington, Design Director at Hydro Tec.
The interiors of the yacht have been designed on four habitable decks, connected by an elevator. Elsewhere, cabins have been distributed on the upper decks, while technical rooms and crew cabins have been allocated inside the two hulls. The left hull accommodates crew quarters, while the right hull is dedicated to tender and toy transport.
The main deck stands out for its generous spaces, with a maximum width of 17.50 meters, creating a residential atmosphere. The aft pool is one-of-a-kind, offering an unobstructed panoramic view of the surrounding landscape. What makes this pool unique is its seamless integration with the main deck, facilitating service with a practical bar, allowing guests to enjoy the large jacuzzi or refresh in the waterway surrounding the rear area. There is also a 6.5-meter window where the dining area and recessed seating lounge are located.
The interiors are bathed in natural light thanks to the expansive full-height windows, representing an authentic celebration of the Mediterranean.
Moving forward to the foredeck guests can enjoy a relaxation area with a sheltered lounge around a fireplace and a jacuzzi pool, also oriented towards the bow. This space is accessible directly from the cabins and at the same time protected and reserved.
The owner’s cabin is oriented towards the bow and located on the upper deck. With 90 square meters of surface area, the interiors also have a layout of the residences overlooking the coasts of the Mediterranean. Behind the owner’s cabin, we find a huge 90-square-meter fitness and spa area that can also be used as a second owner’s cabin, facing aft. The helm has been designed to discreetly fit on the fifth deck.
From a technical standpoint, the propulsion is entrusted to two MTU main engines, connected, via shaft lines, to two fixed blade propellers, and, in addition, to two electric motors powered by the onboard network. Electric motors allow speeds of up to about 10 knots in electric diesel mode.
All in all, this is a sleek Mediterranean home away from home!
