Columbus Yachts, a brand of Palumbo Superyachts, presents the two new models Atlantique line from 37 to 55 metres.
These innovative projects embody Hot Lab's "Architecture for Voyagers" design philosophy that prompted the immediate sale of the line progenitor: Columbus Atlantique 43 meters.
The design is a combination of stylistic, planning and functional elements dedicated to cruising and to enjoy at full every single moment aboard. Great interaction of spaces with the marine environment, the external lines are clean and elegant with a touch of sportiness, like in the Italian GT cars appreciated all over the world.
The hull silhouette of the entire line recalls the sailing yachts of bygone days and the stern area, with its large panoramic swimming pool, is just 50 cm above water level.
Atlantique 37 is compact (under 300GT) and combines sporty lines with refined interiors. Below deck, the layout includes 4 double cabins with en-suite, while the owner cabin is on the main deck forward. There are two dining areas, one outdoor on the main deck and the other one on the upper deck to cater for up to 10 people. The peculiarity of the latter is the large rounded windows, moving up/down and horizontally, which can be closed or opened as needed to emphasize the constant connection with the sea.
The first garage for the 4.45-metre tender is located on the right side while the forward hangar is to house a second 3.25-metre tender and the rescue boat.
Thanks to 2 MAN 1400hp engines, this superyacht can reach a maximum speed of 15 knots and a cruising speed of 13 knots.
The flagship of the line, Atlantique 55 represents the ultimate synthesis of all the innovations specific of this new concept. With steel hull and aluminum superstructure, she has a tonnage of 900 GT and a layout spread over four decks. The convivial area on the main deck aft has been designed to achieve maximum comfort thanks to the three levels of the cockpit sloping down to the sea and comprising: the large scenographic swimming pool, the living area with C-shaped sofa and coffee table and finally the bar area near the entrance to the main hall.
The main deck is available in two layouts both with the owner cabin forward: the first version has a Gym with private balcony, whereas the second one has a fifth VIP cabin and a private balcony in the owner cabin. Below deck we find four double cabins with en-suite. The 13-member staff are accommodated in seven cabins.
The second pool is on the sun deck, while tenders and jet skis are stowed in the forward garage.
Modernity, elegance, sophistication are the ingredients that make the design of the Atlantique line a beacon in the yachting market.
