Must-Haves: Lightning across the Water

This powerful 19-metre daycruiser with crisp, attractive lines may be the most perfect combination of car and boat design yet achieved. Its name alone immediately reflects its illustrious provenance. The Tecnomar for Lamborghini 63 boasts a distinctive supersporty profile. “The hull and superstructure rest on a high-performance keel designed by a team of spcialised hydrodynamics engineers, and provide a contemporary interpretation of the lines created by Marcello Gandini for the iconic Lamborghini Miura and Countach cars of the 1960s and 70s”, says Giovanni Costantino, CEO of Italian Sea Group, which includes the Tecnomar brand. “The hard top is inspired by Lamborghini’s models, providing surprising aerodynamic performance and protection from sun and wind”. The project, developed by Tecnomar with contributions from the Lamborghini style centre, focussed on elements contained in both brands’ DNA. The bow lights are a homage to the Terzo Millennio concept car and the Lamborghini Sián FKP 37, both featuring front spotlights whose design includes the typical Lamborghini stylistic elements. The first models of the yacht will be available in 2021, and it will be produced in a limited edition. “The lucky clients will be rewarded not only by jaw-dropping performance but also the pleasure of owning a floating work of art”, says Costantino. The pilot cabin derives directly from the car cockpit, where all navigation and monitoring systems are fully integrated. The carbon fibre details, sleek seats, helm/steering wheel and the unmistakeable “start&stop” button are straight out of the Lamborghini car textbook. “With the Tecnomar for Lamborghini 63 we’ve reached a new level of production efficiency”, Costantino adds. “For the first time the yard is producing a series-built yacht with a very short lead time compared to what we’re used to with our megayachts. This new challenge will enable us to deliver the yacht in a very short time. We’ve invested in a new pavilion specifically dedicated to this project”. It’s a tough challenge for the Italian Sea Group, which has launched its new model during the Covid-19 emergency. “Fortunately, with careful long-term planning and targeted investment the Tecnomar for Lamborghini project did not experience any significant delays”. https://tecnomar.com
