DESCRIPTION
A classic Versilcraft built in 1985 as a collaboration between renowned Dutch and Italian yacht builders. Hull and superstructure are high-quality aluminium alloy. An ultrasonic thickness measurement (UTM) survey in July 2012 confirmed the sound condition of the plating and paved the way for a complete refit, carried out between 2012 and 2019. A further UTM survey was carried out in 2019 on completion of the refit; the report is available on request.
A complete teak deck refit includes the removal of the old teak, sandblasting, reconfiguration of all decks, installation of new teak decking, sandblasting of the underwater section, repainting of the hull and superstructure, new handrails, and stainless steel awnings. The upper deck has been completely redesigned to feature a brand-new outdoor area: the dining and lounge areas are located under a sunshade, complemented by new refrigerators, an i-maker, and a grill for enhanced guest comfort. BÖNING provides a graphic display of the generators and propulsion engines, power management system data, as well as fuel tanks, a fire system, bilge, service, and transfer pumps, information about doors and hatches, bilge alarms, navigation lights, and lighting systems, including video feeds from CCTV cameras and other pages with important onboard information – all conveniently located at both helm stations. The safety of your journey is guaranteed by two independent navigation systems: the existing GYROSTAR gyrocompass, RAYTHEON radar, RAYTHEON chartplotter, FURUNO echo sounder, SIMRAD autopilot, and SAILOR VHF – all redesigned and fully functional.
- and the new parallel, independently operating system, which was additionally installed during the refit, is fully implemented with the latest FURUNO navigation electronics—satellite compass, radar, chart plotter, front depth sounder, autopilot, VHF, navter, and a new weather station. To improve navigation performance and keep you fully connected while enjoying your holidays onboard, we installed a new antenna designed by GLOMEX with a signal repeater system that provides internet access from every spot on the yacht. A new satellite TV antenna with standalone tuners is also installed in all cabins.
Data collected by the CAN MONITORING system is displayed on monitors at both yacht control stations. To improve the safety and efficiency of ACH maneuvers, a new stern thruster was installed in addition to the existing bow thruster. Two bow thrusters and the addition of an ACHT CONTROLER remote control provide reliable control of the bow, stern thruster, port main engine, starboard engine, and one of the two anchors, allowing you to maneuver the yacht from any point on the two decks in a more relaxed and secure manner. To enhance guest comfort, the yacht's interior has been completely renovated with new teak and marble furniture, offering a balance of style and practicality.
The refit transformed the yacht inside and out. The hull was extended by 3 metres, creating a spacious aft deck that also serves as a swim platform, with easy access to the water for swimming and watersports.
Exterior works included removal of the old teak, sandblasting, reconfiguration of all decks and new teak decking throughout; sandblasting of the underwater hull; repainting of hull and superstructure; new handrails and stainless-steel-framed awnings. The upper deck was completely redesigned as a new outdoor living area, with dining and lounge areas under a sunshade, new refrigerators, an ice maker and a grill.
A Böning monitoring system at both helm stations displays generators and main engines, power management, fuel tanks, fire system, bilge, service and transfer pumps, doors and hatches, bilge alarms, navigation lights and lighting, as well as CCTV camera feeds. Data from the CAN-bus monitoring system is shown on the same displays.
The yacht has two independent navigation systems. The original system, overhauled and fully functional: Gyrostar gyrocompass, Raytheon radar and chartplotter, Furuno echo sounder, Simrad autopilot and Sailor VHF. A second, parallel system installed during the refit, with current Furuno electronics: satellite compass, radar, chartplotter, forward-looking depth sounder, autopilot, VHF, Navtex and a new weather station.
A new Glomex antenna with signal repeaters provides internet access throughout the yacht. A new satellite TV antenna with independent tuners serves all cabins.
For safer and easier manoeuvring, a new stern thruster was added to the existing bow thruster. A Yacht Controller wireless remote operates the bow and stern thrusters, the port and starboard main engines and one of the two anchors, so the yacht can be handled from anywhere on either deck.
The interior was completely renewed with new teak and marble finishes, combining style and practicality. The saloon has a 46" Samsung TV with karaoke system, an electric fireplace, a fridge bar, an ice maker and a cooler.
