EXTRA X99 Fast is a concentrate of power and volume to provide guests with great livability and fun on board.
The naval architecture designed by Palumbo Superyachts and the comprehensively studied exteriors by the Guida Design studio have led to the creation of a 30-metre model, with a planing hull in composite and carbon fiber, capable of reaching a maximum speed of 37 knots.
The unmistakable external lines with a marked and dynamic personality combined with external and internal spaces with a modern Mediterranean flair.
The focal point of the new EXTRA X99 Fast is certainly the stern which distributes its 75 square metres (thanks also to the collapsible balconies) over 3 convivial areas sloping down towards the sea: the beach area, the lounge area furnished with sun loungers and sofas and finally the dining area fitted with extendable table to sit up to 12 people and multi-purpose console. The desired effect is that of a return to nature, sea and leisure.
The interiors are by Luca Dini - Design & Architecture studio which for this project selected nuances of sand which become more materialized and masculine with the addition of inserts of steel and leather in different shades of grey, as well as natural leather coverings on walls and floor.
The environment is embellished by the use of square oak strips that alternate with a uniform rhythm, generating coverings with rigorous and symmetrical lines. All interspersed with smoked-effect black lacquered glass.
The use of marble is scrupulous, the Calacatta Borghini and the Golden Spider appear below deck to embellish convivial and reserved corners.
The interior layout merges with the exterior one thanks to the aft galley which, through an up/down glass partition, is able to enliven more informal moments or become a space for the exclusive use of the chef. The transformism typical of the Extra models signifies the search for innovative and flexible solutions for the daily use of the boat.
The main deck saloon offers great comfort and in addition to the enveloping L-shaped sofa with armchairs there is also a comfortable bar. The coffee tables serving the sofas can be transformed into a table thanks to an up/down mechanism, to ensure a second internal dining area.
The sun deck, accessible through an external staircase on the starboard side, reserves maximum privacy and is furnished with several sun loungers, a dining table with up/down movement and a bar.
Below deck, we find 4 cabins, two of which with twin beds and a pulman bed, a VIP cabin and the owner's cabin positioned amidships to take advantage of the 7.3-metre maximum beam.
The 4-metre tender is housed in a dedicated garage on the starboard side.
Driven by two 2600hp MTU engines combined with water jets, at maximum speed X99 Fast enjoys stability and great maneuverability as well as being absolutely silent below deck for extreme comfort on board.
The X99 Fast model, optimized for the American market, will be exhibited at the Cannes Yachting Festival 2023 and subsequently based in Miami.
