    Those are custom made for each boat, for my Azimut 98 flybridge it was $16,500 and I requested a 3ft increase of height for added fun! Just be careful not to get so beat up before you deflate and store it, otherwise you will do like I did the first time, foot-kicked it into the garage and towed the dinghy!

    Cheers.

    Great! Thanks!

    I may send you some more questions in PM so as to not hijack this thread anymore! but thanks for the ballpark! I should think it wouldnt go up exponentially for larger ones, maybe proportionally, but not exponentially...

    You so very welcome and I'll be glad to help when I can. The price is totally in your hand, they can do wonders, the more wonders you want the more you have to pay for but the product is solid and the seams are tuff stuff and you will never get bored with it, tired yes, bored no!

    Cheers.

    Finally getting to post the last few shots from Miami. Too bad the day job gets in the way of my boating fun.

    Monday was cool and clear, good for shooting

    Did they cut away the side gunnel for the window view? Crazy window design

    Take a bow

    Cool landing craft

    Was the first yacht "It's Almost Good"?

    Holes in hulls

    More holes in hulls. How will that hull look in 10 years?

    And they're close to the waterline

    Was able to get a quick tour through the new Lazzara 92. Just going to throw the photos up. Thanks to our YF friend Brandon for the hospitality.

    Well, after six days at the show, my dogs were tired. And as the sun was heading west and setting on the 2012 Miami Yacht & Brokerage Show, overall I think builders, brokers and vendors were pleased with the results.
    Now we can look forward to the Palm Beach Show in a few weeks.
    Until then, be well my YF friends.

    Again thank you so much for your wonderful pictures!
    I like her design - but I do not like that she does not have a lower helm station..

    I assume you are speaking of the Lazzara 92? Maybe that is why the front of the 'fly' is enclosed. However, if you take a look at the original 'design' of the 92, you will find that they have the lower helm station as you call it. Of course the 'older' version has a retractable sun roof over the interior helm station. "Algorythm" does not in order to accommodate for the expanded sundeck/fly. See the below pic of the 'older' version from the Lazzara website.

    In the first photo of post #71 by Capt Tom, I see that Wider Yachts yachts had banners on the floating Lazzara Showroom. I was just curious how two different brands allow that?

    Thanks for showing me that, you said: " lower helm station as you call it" is that wrong - if that is the case I am sorry and what is the right term?

    Regarding the Wider Yachts banners, I guess the Lazzara broker is the dealer for Wider Yachts as well..

    Nothing is really wrong with it at all just different people call things differently, no harm :) On the other model, it would be a lower helm station since it also has a flybridge nav station.

    Wider Yachts not only had banners hanging, they had one of their boats on display. Tucked in on the port side of the Lazzara 92, you could get to the Wider display via the Lazzara ramp/dock. Maybe they were a late entry? Maybe Lazzara was sub-letting their space? Maybe Lazzara was short one yacht and wanted to fill the space? Who knows. In case you missed it, here's a shot from inside the 92.

    Honestly, I don't mean to be bad but the first thing I saw in the above pic was the Lazzara 92 rails, beautiful! On a side note, the Wider boats are certainly an interesting concept, however, makes me think of alot of servicing.
