Brief Summary

Originating from a pioneering Finnish shipyard celebrated for reinventing modern adventure boating, this craft is engineered specifically for active water lovers who refuse to compromise between outdoor fun and helm protection. Built upon a high-efficiency twin-stepped hull with a sharp entry angle, it delivers smooth offshore transit, minimal fuel burn, and responsive high-speed control. Whether your day calls for island hopping, watersports, or coastal entertaining, the design keeps passengers close to the elements while offering peaceful refuge whenever conditions demand it.

The interior and exterior spaces are crafted around modular versatility. At the front, innovative forward-opening side portals allow natural illumination and fresh breezes to flood the private lower sleeping quarters, creating an airy overnight retreat complete with a comfortable double berth and dedicated head facilities. Above deck, the broad walkaround layout provides safe, unobstructed movement from stem to stern. The protected helm features ergonomic seating and forward-tilting glass, while the rear cockpit can be tailored with a wet bar module, dynamic U-shaped dinette, or an additional rear sleeping cabin to match your ideal style of hosting.

Key Features:

  • Protected Navigation Station: A forward-raked full-wrap windshield combined with an overhead roof structure safeguards the driver and passengers from wind and spray without sacrificing expansive panoramic views.
  • Seamless Cabin Access: Distinctive upward-opening forward side portals eliminate dark, enclosed spaces below, filling the lower suite with natural light and direct access to the bow area.
  • Adaptable Social Zones: Rear deck configurations allow you to select between open floor space for gear, an outdoor kitchenette for dining, or a full convertible lounge with a height-adjustable table.
  • Advanced Hull Dynamics: The dual-step deep-V running surface minimizes drag and impact in chop, providing impressive fuel efficiency along with a stable, smooth ride at high speeds.
