With these boats of over 70 feet, we enter the wonderful – and very expensive – world of superyachts! Boats which will require a professional crew, for both maintenance and the smooth running of these complex vessels, which however offer unparalleled service and quality of life… The ‘must’!
The Seventy 8 is the motor version of the very successful Seventy 7, which came out last year. The aft third of the underwater lines has been revised to house the standard propulsion of twice 480 hp, and the forward trampolines have been replaced by a rigid, teak-covered platform, taking the useable area outside to over 150m². The services are just as luxurious as aboard its older sister, and the various accommodation and decoration possibilities provided in the catalogue make this a genuine custom yacht. Four have already been ordered and the new workshop dedicated to these two models will allow production of 10 boats per year.

Launched in 2010 with the 102’ then the 82’ which included an interior jacuzzi in the owner’s cabin, the builder’s Double Deck range is changing its style with this brand new 88-footer. The builder started with a blank sheet for this catamaran, which offers a very nice forward owner’s cabin and a huge flybridge. The accommodation is very spacious, with many practical aspects, such as the aft garage which makes room for a nice skipper’s cabin with the jet skis housed on the side decks. Thick glass portlights and extensive insulation guarantee great comfort in all circumstances.

NEW-JFA Long Island 85
JFA has just launched the brand new Long Island 85, the second in the series, but with revised accommodation. Its good, compact proportions viewed from the exterior nevertheless offer the services of a genuine yacht, with 125m² of liveable area. The owner’s panoramic cabin at the front of the nacelle, with access to the little private foredeck, is huge, and doesn’t obstruct the view of the sea from the lounge. Its very robust construction in aluminum will allow it to cruise around the polar regions. Its flybridge is closed off with transparent fabric and a boiler has been fitted in addition to the reversible air conditioning. 9 guests and 4 crew members are divided among the cabins, one of which has three beds for the children.
