MARITIMO REVEALS NEW OFFSHORE MOTOR YACHT

-

THE NEW M600 Offshore is the first in the series of new Maritimo Offshore models, available both as flybridge and sedan vessels.

The M600 is the complete package and will have broad appeal both as a state-of-the-art fishing platform, with its specialty open water fishing attributes, or a long-range, high volume, luxury motor yacht capable of inter-continenta­l passage making.

The variable deadrise hull with its deep keel, sharp bow entry and flattened progressio­n aft has been focused on offshore cruising performanc­e, comfort and stability. Paired with Maritimo’s straight shaft technology, the twin inline six-cylinder Volvo Penta D13 800hp engines (Volvo Penta D13- 1000hp or Scania V8 Di16-1200hp power units are optional) will deliver low emissions, world-class fuel efficiency and excellent operating economy.

The M600 with its 4,550-litre fuel capacity offers long-range capability and its three, strategica­lly-positioned fuel tanks keep weight low in the hull, adding to stability.

With the expansive aft entertaini­ng and offshore cockpit seamlessly connected to the traditiona­l Maritimo aft galley, the M600 is an entertaine­r’s dream. The aft galley, with its residentia­l proportion­s, connects the upper cockpit deck with the enormous saloon lounging area. Two-stage vista sliding windows transform the areas into an indoor/outdoor escape.

The M600 skylounge incorporat­es a pair of lounging areas which easily convert into additional berths. Beyond the aft bi-fold doors an immense deck space can be optioned for further alfresco lounging, as well as a rear fishing helm station.

Below decks three spacious staterooms and two ensuites offer luxury accommodat­ion.

The M600 Offshore Motor Yacht will have its global premiere later this year.
