Show Wrap Up - A Maritimo Success

It was a mixed back of tricks from the weather gods, but that didn't deter the buyers.

Maritimo had people lined up and coming back to view the Maritimo C47 & C60 Sports Cabriolets.

Maritimo C47 Sports Cabriolet
The addition of the C47 Sports Cabriolet to the Maritimo stable has caused a even bigger stir than normal. That's because the design team has managed to retain virtually all the features of its larger siblings in a much more compact package.

You'll enjoy all the style, technology and luxury that the Maritimo Sports Cabriolet series offers, including a hydraulic transom garage to hold you tender, or some toys. Furthermore, like every Maritimo an advanced hull design provides superb balance and poise, so you'll never bury the stern or ride bow high - or use the fuel inefficiently. 

However, in a world-first, the C47 also has Volvo certified IPS installation with positive buoyancy tanks. So when you saddle up in this new addition to the Maritimo fleet, you'll be in one of the safest IPS powered motoryachts ever built. The Maritimo C47 Sports Cabriolet. It truly is oceans apart.

Maritimo C60 Sports Cabriolet
The spectacular C60 Sports Cabriolet would look very much at home in any of the glamorous European ports along the Mediterranean coast. And its long list of luxury appointments make it ideal for Australia's love of sun and sea. From the sleek hardtop with its electronic sliding glass run-roof right down to the hydraulic transom garage door near the waterline - features that must been seen to be believed.

The unique design elements that have become synonymous with Maritimo's craftsmanship have all been incorporated in the C60 Sports Cabriolet. To take in the view, saloon seating in lofted and positioned forward. Driving and docking is made easy thanks to 360 degree visibility at the helm. And with the galley, bar, saloon and cockpit all on one level, nobody gets left out of the conversation when you're entertaining.

It's one thing too look great tied up at the dock, but it's at sea that a C60's true value is revealed. That's when you discover how much the vessel's 'ride' contributes to the sheer pleasure of cruising. Designed with an advanced variable deadrise hull, the Maritimo's engines are mounted forward to provide better weight distribution and a more efficient prop shaft angle of just 9 degrees. The sense of poise and balance this brings not only enhances performance, it also provides superior safety and exceptional fuel efficiency. So while others cling to the security of the shoreline, the C60 provides confidence for real long-range enjoyment.

Maritimo and Pier 35 Boat Sales were very proud to present at the Melbourne International Boat Show and Lifestyle Festival, and thank everyone who made it a success.
