Top Ten Yacht Novelties of Moscow Yacht Show 2019

This boat is determined to at least repeat the success of its bestselling predecessor, Targa 43. To win the hearts of potential customers, Targa 43 Open will be a new design by Alberto Mancini, a folding motorized roof, flexible layout. The novelty is driven by a pair of Volvo Penta IPS600 D6 diesel engines. The charm of the Fairline Targa 43 Open was already felt by visitors to the Cannes Yacht Festival last autumn, where the boat won the World Yacht Trophies award.

Meet 55 Fly, the hit of the Azimut flybridge collection. The boat combines beauty and innovation. Its interiors were designed by Achille Salvagni, a world renowned designer, while the EPS servo steering and the Integrated Control & Monitoring System make it look as if you are at the driver's seat in a luxury car.

The exhibit with the inscription «Made in Russia». This multifunctional seven-meter boat with cabin was created by Velvette Marine shipyard in cooperation with Yamaha. An enclosed cockpit, sleeping places for 2-4 people, galley and bathroom, carefully calculated hull of variable keel - its main strengths.

The new Merry Fisher 1095 is the flagship model of the French shipyard Jeanneau range, demonstrating that boats over 10 meters long can be equipped with outboard engines. The hull of the Merry Fisher 1095 is specially designed for this type of engine. In addition, the boat is very spacious in its size.

In front of us is Delphia Yachts' first BluEscape Displacement Motor Cruiser with Tony Castro. The low draft (0.84 m) makes him «his boyfriend» in shallow waters, while the trawler-style architecture also allows him to walk peacefully at sea.

Plavdachniki, rejoice - a big house on the water, and besides with a heliport, became a reality! The reality is Heliboat 209. The living area of the houseboat varies from 160 to 300 square meters, and to live on board you can at least all year round, the benefit of the steel hull of the catamaran type will calmly winter in the ice. All life support systems are self-contained and environmentally friendly, and it is also able to move at speeds of up to 16 km/h with a range of 1,200 km.

This is the benchmark among professional towboats in their own right. New look, updated ballast Switchback system with FastFill pumps and the biggest standard package in the series: ZFT4 motorized tower, two control monitors, new generation 5500 GDI Ilmor engine, premium Klipsch stereo system... And this is only part of a long list.

Northman Shipyard is taking the popular Maxus 26 to the Moscow Yacht Show 2019. Compared to the previous models, she has a modern deck layout with a full length stopwatch for safety. In addition, the deck is designed so that the owner can install almost any additional equipment.

It's hard to single out one particular thing at the American Lund Boats booth. The company is going to Moscow to please with an extensive exposition. For fishing or just for a walk - Lund boats are universal in this respect.
