Jeanneau launched a new line of flybridge motor yachts designed by the naval architecture firm of T. Castro Design. The first model of this line, the Velasco 43, was presented at the 2012 Paris Boat Show and will be at the 2013 Düsseldorf Boat Show.
Elegant hull lines contribute to fuel efficiency and optimise seakeeping at speeds of 15 to 28 knots. Innovations in terms of comfort and use of space combine for a totally new approach to life aboard a flybridge motor yacht. This is an all-new direction that the Jeanneau brand is taking in the design of flybridge motor yachts.
Inspired by larger yachts, the Velasco 43 makes a strong personal statement on the exterior, paired with a contemporary style on the interior.
Aboard the Velasco 43, the distribution of interior and exterior living spaces results in an unexpected, superior level of comfort, with a layout that is particularly well suited for today’s multi-generational families.
Designed for smooth, safe cruising at high speeds, the highly tapered hull of the Velasco 43 is comfortable and efficient in all cruising conditions. Shaft drive transmission and joystick control are the preferred technical solutions for frequent cruising and effortless manoeuvring.
Innovative and elegant, powerful and reassuring, the Velasco 43 unveils an all-new approach to the motor yacht, one conceptualised entirely for family cruising.
