2004 Gianetti 85S

The 24 S model stands as a hinge point between the category of boats and that of ships, presenting itself as a long-range offshore cruiser, capable of proceeding uninterruptedly for over 1,500 miles at a speed of 12 knots, with engines - two Caterpillar C18s of 1,015 hp each - under load for just 45 percent. If we consider that in these conditions consumption is just 140 liters per hour, it is easy to understand why there is no need to force the pace to reach a maximum speed of 16 knots, which is paid for with a flow of more than doubled. The interior lay out is characterized by 5 comfortable cabins plus crew quarter.

Need to outline the large salon of the version we propose, an example of sober elegance married to rationality. Here, the subdivision of the spaces is exclusively functional, with the dining area made up of a round table for six diners and an L-shaped lounge. As if to act as a backdrop, on the forward side, a beautiful console element gives way to two symmetrical side corridors: the one on the left leading to the galley; the starboard one direct to the cabin area.
Although the comfort of the accommodation and common areas is very high, it is easy to imagine that the privileged environment in which to while away the hours at sea - especially during the summer - is represented by the flying bridge. In reality it is a mix of what, on cruise ships, is called a boat-deck and a sun-deck: a large open surface, away from the subdued roar of the machines (in this case, really contained), on which the life on board can be lived in its most varied forms.
And, also in this case, the separation of the guest area from the technical area - made up of a slightly elevated helm station - is more virtual than effective, proposing that same sense of space that one breathes below deck. Again from an architectural point of view, it is interesting to note that the internal bridge - clearly professional in layout - is placed at an intermediate level between the main deck and the flybridge, right along the passage which leads from the first to the second deck: this allows the captain to have immediate access to the most important operating areas of the boat. In this regard, we note the presence of two small maneuvering stations (equipped with levers for the inverters and joystick for the bow thruster), placed in a strategic position: one, at the aft end of the fly bridge; the other, removable, in a cavity of the cockpit.
