Solaris 80RS Altihia: Truthfulness, simplicity and substance

Time flies and summer has just arrived. We are making every effort not to disappoint your expectations. To this matter, we want to share with you the emotion exhaled from the view of the first model of the Solaris 80RS sailing into the Mediterranean waters.

We thank the owner for trusting the whole team and for giving such an important name to the hull, Alithia, that in Greek means "what will not be forgotten". This yacht is the result of a detailed study that fuses speed with offshore safety and stunning aesthetics and, even in her simplicity, she emerges extraordinary.

And that's exactly how it is, an important goal for us, that will remain an indelible memory in the Solaris history. It is an analysis aimed to imagine and realize an incredible synergy between the spaces on and below deck. This dimensional combination allowed to design a unique and innovative saloon: clear light, open horizon, clean and vast extensions, luxury comfort. The coachroof's windows are an original solution to enjoy the glares of the sky and the sea, even from inside.

We would like to share the pictures of the shooting we did last week. A veritable queen of the seas lulled by the Mediterranean waters and ready to face the Seven Seas and make the whole Solaris world extremely proud for the achieved goal.

Nevertheless, we won't stop here: we are working at full speed to deliver the hull no.2 this summer.
