Numarine has announced a new model in its XP expedition yacht range: The 45XP luxury yacht, ready to be built and the future flagship for the series.
The 26XP and 32XP were previously announced by the shipyard as compact explorer yachts taking advantage of a shallow draft to access the shallow waterways and shores that larger vessels would otherwise have to avoid.
Concept images reveal a broad beam that places the formal dining area and lounge side by side on a main deck surrounded by floor-to-ceiling windows and glass sliding doors that open out to the exterior to the sides as well as to the aft. A second larger salon is also placed within this large open-plan main deck space, with a C-shaped sofa and chaise-loungers placed around a coffee table, plus a nearby bar to serve refreshments throughout the gathering.
Outside, the main deck aft has two crescent sofas around two semi-circular tables for an intimate conversation in the shade, and to cool off the swimming pool along the stern. The inter-connectivity of the spaces allows for greater guest flow while hosting dockside events, and for a move convivial living environment whilst on long sea voyages.
The upper deck has a sofa in the bridge deck where guests can relax and take in the forward views from the interior, and behind there is the Captain’s cabin followed by the skylounge, which has a desk, bar, large C-shaped sofa and TV entertainment opposite. The upper deck aft is used for observation and for hosting the tenders and water toys.
The sundeck forward creates a symmetrical social area with two L-shaped sofas each with a drinks table. Amidships beneath the hardtop there is a wet bar and an alfresco dining table to seat 12 guests, while along the stern sofa/sunbeds surround a Jacuzzi.
The accommodation places a Master suite on the main deck, with the his-and-hers en-suite bathrooms joined in the middle by a walk-in-wardrobe behind, and a forward door leads out to a private bow sunbathing area with a spa pool and infinity waterfall. The main deck also has an office and gym in addition to the aforementioned lounges.
On the lower deck, there are four further guest cabins comprised of two VIP staterooms, a double cabin and a twin cabin, all with en-suite facilities. The crew accommodation is placed within the bow, and the stern has a beach club with a bar behind the engine room.
Numarine has received serious buyer enquiries for the 45XP explorer yacht and is ready to begin construction.
