Last Wednesday, the Italian shipyard Tecnomar has held a keel-laying ceremony of the 40m Motor Yacht Impero designed by Luca Dini in cooperation with the Shipyard’s Style Centre. The new semi-displacement superyacht IMPERO was built in aluminium and her delivery to the Owner is scheduled for 2013. To evoke a good fortune during her construction and throughout her future years at the sea, a ‘good luck’ fortune has been placed into the vessel’s keel. The Owner with his family and Tecnomar President Mr. Giovanni Costantino also attended the ceremony.
“This ceremony represents an important step forward in the company growth process started in 2009” says Giovanni Costantino.
“We are the only shipyard which implemented and completed a massive reorganisation and industrialisation plan in just two years. Our fleet today is made up of 21 new models and recently 4 important sales have been finalized: this 40-metre yacht, a 45-metre IMPERO yacht, a 33-metre REGALE yacht and the first sailing yacht named Silent 76 TECNOSAIL”.
The IMPERO line marks a new concept where space, comfort, natural light and safety are perfectly combined with state-of-art design, performance and new technologies for environmental protection.
Powered by twin 2 MTU 16V 2000 M94 engines of 1,920 HP each, the IMPERO 40 is expected to reach a maximum speed of 19 knots and a cruising speed of 17 knots.
As all Tecnomar yachts, she will have the “RINA Green Plus” certification which is the latest class notation based on the best environmental performance index.
