NEW SETZER MONTE-FINO SERIES UNDERWAY

Setzer Yacht Architects has been working with Kha-Shing Shipyards in Taiwan on new designs at both 19 and 34 meters for their Monte-Fino vessel line. The 19m (62') Sport Yacht, which will reach speeds of up the 35 knots, features three staterooms below deck and a full beam master. The galley will be half a level below the main deck, which also includes the salon and pilot area under a retracting sunroof. The aft deck features a sunning pad and dining areas and access to a crew lounge and cabin below. The swim step is accessible from either side and lifts to reveal a tender garage positioned above the engine space.  A flybridge version will also be available.The second design, at 34m (112'), will be for a "Sport Yacht" that  addresses the traditional needs of yacht owners with a new and refined style. An oversized main aft deck is a differintiating feature of the design, with a large dining area, bar and sunning lounge. The Flybridge is multi-level and includes seating, bar, grill and hot tub amenities. With a beam of 6.9m a draft of 1.9m the hull form will hold ample fuel stores for extended cruising and yield top speeds from 18 to 26 knots depending on selected powering options.
