Italian yard AB Yachts has announced the delivery of the first unit in its AB 130 series, named Effe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The 39.7-metre model has a sporty, slender exterior befitting her impressive top speed of 40+ knots, supported by waterjet propulsion. An “extendable” beach area at the stern is what sets Effe apart from others in her size bracket, with two large aft wings that deploy to form a “terrace on the sea”. She is an evolution of Wraith, the first unit in the AB 125 series.<\/p>\n\n\n

This beach area is integrated with the aft cockpit and main saloon, creating a single convivial area that exceeds 100 square metres. A sea-view pool, which can be covered and uncovered “on demand”, completes the space, while an alternative al fresco space is found on the flybridge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meanwhile, the main saloon measures 50 square metres and provides 360-degree views through floor-to-ceiling windows. The interior d\u00e9cor has been customised to the specific needs of the owners, who are “experienced yachtspeople who knew exactly what they were looking for”.<\/p>\n\n\n

Effe also benefits from a float-in garage, which has capacity for a 4.6-metre tender, two Jet Skis, Seabobs and several inflatable systems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The model has a shallow 1.3-metre draft and a range of 450 nautical miles at a cruising speed of 35 knots.<\/p>\n\n\n

According to BOATPro, AB Yachts has nine units on order or under construction, two of which belong to the AB 130 series.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
