Motor yacht FRETTE has been launched by Columbus Yachts and named after the luxury Frette brand. She is the second hull in the Atlantique 43, designed to meet the needs of her new owner who was looking for a bespoke interior layout and maximised outdoor spaces which maintain a seamless connection.
The exterior and interior of this 43m (141’) luxury yacht have been created by Hot Lab Studio and their characteristic blend of style and function is evident throughout. The exterior profile is elegant and free from any sharp edges – reminiscent of shapes seen in nature such as smooth stones or nutshells. The “sailing-type” stern of Atlantique 43m is perhaps its most distinctive area and sits low in the water – a mere 50cm above sea level – and features an impressive 5-metre central swimming pool further enhanced by folding side wings.
Her interior reflects her name and is adorned with the luxurious fabrics, soft furnishings and linens the Frette brand is known for. Sophisticated combinations of materials reflect the exceptional Italian craftsmanship and ensures maximum functionality and enjoyment of the spaces on board. The lower deck offers a five-stateroom layout with two VIP suites which can be joined together to create a VVIP, and three further twin/doubles all with ensuite bathroom facilities.
Power comes from twin CAT C32 970kW engines which deliver a top speed of 15.5 knots and a cruising speed of 14.5knots. Storage for a 5.5m tender is at the stern with the garage opening on the starboard side plus the main deck forward can house a second tender and two jet skis.
Luxury yacht FRETTE will be on display at the 2204 Cannes and Monaco Boats Shows this autumn.
