The Perini Navi Group, world leader in the design and building of large sailing and motor yachts, is proud to announce the launch of motor yacht Grace E (hull C.2189). Mega yacht Grace E is a new 73m Picchiotti vessel that is the third motor yacht sold by the Perini Navi Group, at their Picchiotti shipyard in La Spezia, Italy.
Superyacht Grace E, like her predecessors superyacht Exuma and Galileo G yacht, is part of the Group’s project for relaunching the historic Picchiotti brand name in the world of large motor yachts. Picchiotti is famous for its design, engineering and high production standards, qualities that it shares with the rest of the Perini Navi Group.
Luxury yacht Grace E has the same hull and superstructure design elements that both characterize the rest of the Picchiotti Vitruvius® series and assure efficient and autonomous navigation. Grace E has an advanced diesel-electric propulsion system with two Azipod propellers, electronically activated propellers that are mounted on a movable support called a pod, that allow the yacht to reach a cruising speed of 16.5 knots.
Grace E yacht is also equipped with a variety of tenders for the exploration of the surrounding environment.
Ideal for cruising in the Mediterranean or in the Caribbean, Grace E yacht has been designed for autonomous and energy efficient cruising in comfort and safety.
Exterior spaces are divided over five decks. The Upper Deck, also called the Wellness Deck, has an area that is entirely devoted to wellness with a gym, a sauna and hydrotherapy equipment. The interiors, designed by Remi Tessier, are elegant and contemporary.
The 73m Grace E yacht will be delivered by the end of the year 2013.
At their Perini Istanbul-Yildiz shipyard the Group is currently constructing the first sailing yacht in their new 70m series, scheduled for delivery in 2015, and the third yacht in their 60m series, a yacht that can be delivered within two years.
At their Italian shipyards they are also currently constructing the second yacht in their 60m series, the sloop superyacht P3 (hull C.2218), whose delivery is scheduled for the year 2014, and the second yacht in their 38m Racing Line.
