| April 2009: The new C68 is here! |
Sessa Marine, following a period of intense preparation, will launch in April their flagship, the C68, a truly "Class Leading" solution in the open hard top segment. A 21 meter yacht with a hull form that is the result of in-depth studies. A unique style with a personality all her own and a design inspired by the classic cars from the 30's and 40's but with a modern touch.
A new boating concept that reflects your own distinct personality.
The most striking features of the C68 are the distribution of space, the choice of materials, how the colours play with each other, and how the windows allow light to merge the traditional boundaries between the external and internal spaces amplifying the internal spaces and bringing them in harmony with the outside. She is a non-conventional solution that invites one to live onboard her as one would live in one's home. A yacht with the spirit of a luxury attic whilst sitting in the marina. The yacht for a fashionable couple yet knows how to remain discrete.
An aft cabin that is the pride of her owner!
The owner's cabin best illustrates the philosophy of this yacht. An area that highlights one of the yacht's important characteristics where light is a fundamental element. The sleeping area and the bathroom create a unique space whereby one becomes a part of the other, and vice versa. The double sinks in front of the large window where the one on the right reflects the one on the left and the spa effect created by the chromo therapeutic lighting in the shower stall enclosed in a glass wall.
An amazing kitchen.
The internal spaces still maintain a nautical air about them but at the same time clearly separate the "domestic" areas. For this, Sessa Marine has collaborated with Dada who have conceptualised the yacht's kitchen with the same creative spirit and functionality created for the home. The result? To merge in a narrow space the cooking, washing and refrigeration functions without sacrificing ergonomics or aesthetics that one would have in a beautiful home. This is highlighted with the magnificent "Cave à Vin" illuminated in LED, an outstanding example of the refined spirit of the yacht.
The pleasure to be together and to relax.
The C68 was designed with space in mind to enjoy time together with one's friends. For example, the large internal volumes and the external areas both rich as well as refined for one's guests or the exceptional sun bed at the bow with the 2 integrated chaise lounges that invite one to reflect on a sunset as one would do on from one's own terrace at home.
Principal characteristics of the c68 yacht. with the stamp of reliability.
Propelled with 2 MAN V12 engines of 1360 HP each, the C68 can ensure optimum performance and a comfortable ride. For the development of the new hull, Sessa Marine has reunited a working group consisting of their own engineering staff, the Arnaboldi office from Viareggio and Christian Grande, who was for many years the yard's designer. The hydrodynamic form of the new hull has been developed with the Krylov Shipbuilding Institute of Saint Petersburg, the leading model test basin in Europe.
Sessa Marine has searched for the best for their flagship! All of the technical details have been specified with a focus on quality and the highest reliability. Installed on the C68 are the best components available such as for the hydraulic and electrical systems where the best technical solution is to install redundancy in the main systems previously done only on much larger yachts.
