ISA Yachts has sold a new 66-meter project, opening the new Sportiva line. The US Client was introduced by Steve Doyle of Apollo Yachts. Ian Kerr of Kerr Maritime is the surveyor appointed by the Client for the technical specifications and the supervision of the construction.
Distinguished by a steel hull and aluminum superstructure, ISA Sportiva features an extremely sporty profile and an original and innovative reverse bow. The exterior design was developed by Nuvolari Lenard, while the naval engineering was elaborated by the in-house technical office of Palumbo Superyachts.
“With a consolidated financial health and an order book exceeding 400 million, we look into the future with determination and optimism. On this new 66 meters, Nuvolari Lenard has interpreted very well the ISA style, designing a superyacht with sleek lines and the iconic features of the brand”, comments Giuseppe Palumbo, Sole Director of Palumbo Superyachts.
“Nuvolari Lenard is content to work on this new ISA project, having a possibility to create the powerful "muscle yacht" design, blending it with elegance of its sleekness, coming from the lengthy hull. We believe something great is being created here, thanks to this first effective collaboration with Palumbo Superyachts”, comments Dan Lenard.
This new superyacht will be built at the Ancona shipyard with delivery scheduled in 2025.
Palumbo Superyachts took root in 2008, when the Columbus Yachts brand was established, and in 2011 it launched its first 54m superyacht, emblematically christened Prima (the First). Currently, Palumbo Superyachts comprises a representative office in Monaco and a logistics network of five shipyards in the Mediterranean (Ancona, Malta, Marseille, Naples, and Savona); it also operates the following brands: ISA Yachts, Columbus Yachts, Mondomarine, Extra Yachts and Palumbo SY Refit.
