Cruising sailing yacht 16.98

3-cabinwith open transomtwin steering wheels

In the design of Italia Yachts 16.98 the tradition of the great ocean-going fast cruisers is reborn and updated with the latest hydrodynamics. Italia Yachts 16.98 is a very blue water, conceived to cruise long distances, combining performance, comfort and timeless style, with the guarantee of safe arrival even under the harshest conditions. The Italia Yachts 16.98 is a complete all-round boat with the performance you would expect from a fast cruiser. Seagoing boat behaviour, yet classic and original lines. The result is a yacht to sail easily, even with a family crew in which to enjoy long cruises and all that a sailing cruiser can offer. The deck layout is reminiscent of a maxi-yacht. This allows expansive areas free from equipment: a separate cockpit area, side decks and large areas for sunbathing. All the equipment is of the highest quality, starting from the winches for jib and mainsail trim which are perfectly sized. All winches can be electrically powered. Behind the wheels a flat and clear surface can be fully allocated to a sunbathing area, in direct connection with the sea. Exterior design The coachroof design characterizes the boat, and strongly represents the signature of the yard. The distinctive portholes design is further emphasized by the presence of different levels that give movement to the whole profile. The grid on the coaming provides a touch of exclusivity, hiding other portholes. The coachroof is conceived to allow the storage of the sprayhood and all of the lines, which run recessed up to the winches.
