Fairline Premieres New Phantom 65 in Cannes, Awarded Best Exterior Design

The Phantom 65 has been awarded the Best Exterior Design Trophy at the 2022 World Yachts Trophies Awards. The yacht made her official debut at the 2022 Cannes Yachting Festival.

This award ceremony recognized the best motorboats and yachts from 13-140 metres launched over the past year and Fairline’s Phantom 65 was awarded for its unparalleled and elegant exterior design. Based on the technical platform of the Targa 65, but with a revised window line and a new deck and superstructure, the Fairline Phantom 65 is a boat that focuses on great livability of the exterior spaces with an upper deck that is in keeping with the boat’s sporty lines. The result is a 20-metre, 35-knot yacht capable of making the most of a day at sea for guests, but also suitable for longer cruises.

The Phantom 65 features a spectacular minimal design with a single fluid styling line sweeping up past the windscreen into a compact sports bridge before evolving into a low-level radar arch. The outside spaces appear to deliver a subtly judged balance between sleek lines and practicality.

In addition, the large hull windows and glazed roof allow natural light to brighten the spacious interior where the dining room is able to host a generous number of guests. The main deck design features a large platform which also allows the tender to be easily launched. The garage is suitable for storing a Williams 345 SportJet tender and the entire area above the tender garage is optimized into a sundeck with direct contact with the aft platform. This does not sacrifice the cockpit table which becomes more of an informal social area for relaxing. Moving inside there is a dining room with plenty of seating. Fairline’s team has also designed a galley that maximizes the workspace with a fridge/freezer and bar area that extends into the cockpit – perfect for on-water living. Owners can customize the interior of their yacht and choose between oak or walnut veneers with satin or high-gloss lacquer and either three or four-cabin layouts.
