Gulfstream is a name well-known in the business aviation industry but it is also a name in the center console segment and their largest build at present is the 52 Center Console. The builder introduced the 52CC for their 10th anniversary. This is one of those times when the model name matches the actual LOA. 52-feet long and with a beam of 15-feet, she has space for you to be comfortable onboard.

42-meter E-Volution Sloop Splashes In Technical Launch
Around the same time over the weekend Perini Navi launched two vessels. The first was the 25.5-meter ECO-tender built for an experienced owner who also happens to own a 52-meter Perini and the other was the 42-meter E-Volution sloop. However, this was the technical launch for the 42-meter sloop as she won't be completed fully until 2020. The vessel was sold to an owner in July of 2018 and the concept was announced at the 2017 Monaco Yacht Show (MYS)...
25.5-meter ECO Tender Launches At Perini Navi
Perini Navi recently launched the new 25.5-meter ECO tender. This is the yacht that is envisioned to be a large chase tender to the new Perini Navi 42.2-meter E-volution sloop. However, this first unit is going to provide role to an owner who has a 52-meter Perini Navi sailing vessel. The ECO tender is called that name because she is as efficient and environmentally friendly as it goes without going all electric. The vessel does carry a diesel-electric setup. Hamilton waterjets are linked to two 1,627 horse power engines which should allow this craft to see a 30-knot top end...
BeachClub 660 By Van der Valk
Glass technology in the yachting industry is becoming more and more advanced and this is leading designers and builders alike to present radical concepts for build. Sometimes they are proposed on a large scale such as with the Oceanco "DAR" or with the new Nobiskrug project 'Artefact' that is under construction nearing launch. However, the smaller scale yachts are also benefiting from the advances in glass making technology as well as the implementation. The BeachClub 660 and 600 are two models in the works by Dutch builder Van der Valk...

Technohull's Omega 45 At Miami Yacht Show
The center console market is continually expanding not just in the variations being offered but in size too. Alot of vessels are pushing 50-feet and beyond as the norm now so it is nice that we still can see sub-50-foot CCs that have alot to offer. At the ongoing Miami Yacht Show, Technohull displayed their Omega 45. It is a large luxury performance RIB and while it doesn't have the impressive 6-engine setup of Cigarette Racing's 59' Tirranna bolted to the stern, her performance is eye-watering. The Omega 45 can top out at around 78-knots and carry a maximum of four 400HP outboards. It is also optional for inboard setup. In tri-engine configuration the horse power variations are 300, 350 and 400. Onboard this 13.80-meter craft there is capacity for 1,100 LT of fuel...
