Sergio Cutolo-designed Columbus Sport Hybrid 40M Yacht at launch
First exponent of the ‘Sport Hybrid’ line, the yacht represents the perfect mix between the sporty style and the elegant comfort of a megayacht, designed to offer high performance, while at the same time promising a low environmental impact. Hence the choice for an aluminum hull and superstructure so to limit the weights, thus optimizing the fuel consumption; even more effective is the decision to equip the yacht with a hybrid propulsion system, the possibility to add two electric engines, on top of the main ones, enables both to reach a maximum speed of 7,5 knots, when using only the electric propulsion, and to produce new energy when the main engines are running.
Featuring a style that is both dynamic and sophisticated the Columbus Sport Hybrid 40M yacht, distributed on four deck contemplates four guest cabin on the lower deck, a large living room on the main deck, exceptionally bright, tanks to the high windows that overlook the external terraces, followed by the Owner apartment . On the upper deck are located another smaller salon and a fully equipped sky lounge that can be enjoyed either for an outdoor party, or just for relax.
Once again Sergio Cutolo is confirmed as one of the most innovative naval designer on the Italian market, able to offer always different and advanced solutions, whether it comes to design a small steel explorer, or to conceive fast and modern superyacht in aluminium; combining the most advanced technologies with an increasing great care for environmental issues. This attitude is proving to be successful, as confirmed by the well-established partnership with some of the biggest Italian shipyard, as well as the increasing number of project realized so far.
