In the words of Sessa Marine’s designer Christian Grande, the boat’s form echoes a 70’s, with squared bow and soft sides, a muscular and powerful body that resembles a shark, fast and sleek, cutting edge, fitting the revolutionary styl. Sleek steel, teak accents and luxurious sunbeds lining the foredeck; the helm divides the ergonomically designed cockpit, complete with a wide “L” shaped couch, from the sunbathing area.
The dining table, in solid teak, can be raised or lowered to the desired height and converts into another sunbathing area at the stern; the double helm incorporates a large console that hides a galley complete with sink and stove along with a teak cupboard, in complete harmony with the open deck.
The form, function and practicality of all the various components are very detailed. The intelligent use of integrated cleats on the internal sides of the hull structurally and esthetically creates a streamlined boat.
Below decks the high standards are easily recognized in the detailing that is integral to the development of the Key Largo range: a double bed that can be split into single beds and an “L” shaped couch, a separate bathroom with toilet and sink, all are unique for a boat of this length and size. All materials used in the building of the boat are the latest, for example lacquered stained walnut dressed with fabrics in soft tones.
The propulsion and hull form are the product of extensive testing and refining at the new “Centro Studi di Sessa Marine”, one of the few boat builders to have an in-house research and development facility.
The V shaped hull of Key Largo 27 is extremely safe, “dry”, tender and maneuverable, capable of up to 44 knots (with 2 Yamaha 150 HP 4 stroke engines). The Key Largo 27 can accommodate a maximum of 400 HP, either with twin or a single engine. For the launch, there is a package with either two Yamaha F 150’s or a single Yamaha V8 F 300/350. The packaging demonstrates Sessa Marine’s willingness to offer a top luxurious product without any compromises including: twin hydraulic rudders, 500 litre fuel tank, external shower, equipped for water skiing, GPS Raymarine Wide, VHF, 42 litre fridge.
