Fantastic Yacht

Design & Construction

Designed around a planing GRP hull and a carbon fibre superstructure she features a 5.55m beam and a 1.64m draft. The yacht is built over 2 decks.

Exterior Design

Fantastic combines the sleek, sporty lines of a coupe with the added functionality of a modest flybridge. The vessel's exterior is characterized by its practical design, which includes a flush pivoting bathing platform that elegantly integrates into the stern, offering easy access for a variety of water activities. This platform serves a dual purpose, doubling as a launch for the tender garage capable of housing both a Williams 325 jet tender and a jet ski.

Moving to the cockpit area, Fantastic provides a spacious outdoor setting featuring a large sun pad, comfortable seating around a generous table, and a fully-equipped wet bar that includes a barbecue, fridge, and ice maker. This well-appointed space is ample, making it well-suited for alfresco dining or leisure.

The sporty silhouette of the yacht is enhanced by its sizable side decks, protected by high bulwarks, which lead to the foredeck. Here, guests can enjoy additional outdoor lounging options, including a sunbathing area and a powered cabana for shade. The foredeck offers an alternative vantage point, ideal for privacy and unobstructed views when moored stern-to.

Ascending to the flybridge, visitors find a compact yet inviting area that includes a helm station and additional seating. Though smaller than those found on dedicated flybridge models, this space provides an open-air experience without compromising the yacht's performance-focused design. The Fantastic's flybridge is equipped with a bimini top for sun protection and is an ideal spot for experiencing the thrill of open-water cruising.

Interior Design

The main saloon is imbued with a sense of openness and light, achieved through the extensive use of full-height windows that lower completely, creating a harmonious indoor/outdoor environment. This area is equipped with ample storage facilities and a retractable television for entertainment purposes.

The saloon also includes a dining area that is suitably positioned adjacent to the side access door, enhancing the convenience for both guests and crew. This area is furnished with a substantial table surrounded by comfortable seating, facilitating communal meals and social gatherings.

In terms of practicalities, the galley is discreetly situated, with a significant storage area beneath the floor. It is appointed with an all-electric ceramic hob and high-quality Miele appliances, including an integrated fridge-freezer and dishwasher. The galley is fitted with ample cabinetry for storing culinary essentials.

The helm station, located forward in the saloon, is configured with a single helm seat and is equipped with an array of navigation instruments housed within Raymarine multifunction displays. The yacht features IPS propulsion, thus, the helm is furnished with joystick control, bow thruster, and engine controls. Additionally, it includes a sunroof above, which is a sizable retractable section that allows for natural light and air to enhance the helm experience during navigation.

Accommodation

Fantastic boasts four cabins, each with its own ensuite facilities, ensuring privacy and convenience for all guests aboard.

The master cabin features a walk-in wardrobe, a rarity on a sports cruiser of this size, and an expansive ensuite bathroom with a large shower. The suite is further complemented by a subtle high gloss finish on the woodwork, a breakfast nook, and large windows that flood the space with natural light.

The cabin arrangement includes a spacious VIP cabin located at the bow, offering ample headroom and equipped with sizeable hanging lockers for storage. It features a thoughtfully designed dressing table and a dedicated ensuite bathroom with a separate shower area, showcasing fine Italian craftsmanship.

In addition to the VIP cabin, Fantastic houses two guest cabins with single beds, both of which also benefit from private ensuite bathrooms and hanging lockers for personal belongings. One of these cabins includes a Pullman berth, allowing for a third person to be accommodated when necessary, bringing the total guest sleeping capacity to nine when utilized.

Crew accommodation is also thoughtfully designed, with up to three crew members able to be housed on board. The crew cabins maintain a high standard of finish, with air conditioning controls and adequate storage. The crew area includes a shared bathroom with a separate shower and laundry facilities.

Performance & Capabilities

Equipped with triple Volvo Penta IPS-1350 engines, each delivering a robust 1,000 horsepower, Fantastic demonstrates impressive agility and power. The advanced propulsion system, featuring IPS pod drives, not only enhances maneuverability but also contributes to the vessel's top speed of approximately 35 knots. At a cruising speed of around 28 knots, owners can enjoy swift passages, maintaining efficiency without compromising on velocity.

As for the range, the Fantastic can cover about 300 nautical miles at cruising speed, making it suitable for extended voyages along coastlines or between islands. Speed and distance capabilities are balanced to provide both exhilarating sprints and longer, more contemplative journeys.

One of the yacht's notable mechanical features includes the SeaKeeper gyro stabilizer, which significantly reduces roll motion at sea, contributing to the comfort of guests and crew alike. This technology is particularly valuable when the yacht is at rest, offering a more stable platform and enhancing the onboard experience.

The dual generators onboard the Fantastic underscore its self-sufficiency, ensuring that all systems can run independently and reliably, a feature often reserved for larger vessels.

Amenities

The yacht can house plenty of nautical toys and accessories, with a well-appointed tender garage for storing her impressive locker.
