The Italian Sea Group has revealed the details of the Admiral Quaranta line, which saw the sale of its first unit finalised in May, just a few months after the project was unveiled. The result of a collaboration between the Monaco-based studio The A Group and the Centro Stile of the Italian Sea Group, this superyacht allows the Group to expand its fleet by adding a new 40-metre production segment to the semi-custom Admiral projects while maintaining the style and elegance that haracterise distinguish the brand.
THE A GROUP: THE CONCEPT
Admiral Quaranta stands out for its large volumes and very high quality, with comfort and layout typical of a 60-metre yacht. Featuring two owners' staterooms and four large guest/VIP staterooms, Quaranta can accommodate up to two families for weeks of fun between trips, slides and water play. An ideal yacht where you can live, work and have fun. On the Admiral Quaranta, the experience is equal to that of a much larger yacht, but with reduced management costs. This was confirmed by the owner of the first unit, currently under construction, who immediately showed interest in the project.
THE DESIGN
The style of the external lines is contemporary and modern but without excess; curved, tense and soft lines alternate with more decisive and marked straight lines, giving the whole an elegant and timeless character. Thanks to its shallow draft and flexible layout that is easily adaptable to different customer requests, the superyacht Quaranta is ideal for sailing in the waters of the Bahamas and the Caribbean both in charter mode and on a family cruise. With environmental sustainability in mind, both the hull and superstructure are made of aluminium and on-board weights have been optimised to minimise consumption.
“We managed to create a harmonious synergy in this project thanks to our strong expertise in terms of design, quality and innovation.” comments Giovanni Costantino, founder & CEO of The Italian Sea Group “At 40 metres, this is the only superyacht currently on the market in its category, to offer a six-cabin layout as an added value.”
THE ITALIAN SEA GROUP CENTRO STILE: THE INTERIORS
QUARANTA's interiors are exceptional in terms of space and comfort. The layout has been designed to provide large living areas on all three decks, from cabins to bathrooms and lounges, considering the length of the yacht. The interior design is suitable for both private use and long charter seasons. It is characterised by a sporty yet elegant style, defined by a calm colour palette and a refined selection of materials. An elegant combination of a glossy, honey-coloured Canaletto oak finish is paired with a more sporty, rough sanded light oak, together giving a casual, luxurious feel. In addition, the light shades of leather and fabrics create a welcoming and warm ambience, enhancing the already abundant natural light from the large side windows.
Particular attention has been paid to the ergonomic study of all the internal volumes. Sharp corners have been avoided and all the edges of the surfaces have been gently rounded. The design follows a "cocooning" mood, enhanced by the overall atmosphere created by the refined materials. The interior features 6 guest cabins, two of which are dedicated to the owner, one on the main deck and another larger one on the upper deck; the latter offers exclusive use of the deck thanks to the decentralised external access staircase, guaranteeing maximum privacy and large, dedicated outdoor spaces. On the main deck, the large saloon houses the living-dining area and a technologically advanced games area; three large floor-to-ceiling windows frame the landscape, offering an uninterrupted view of the surroundings, creating close visual
communication with the outside and ensuring optimal natural lighting. At the stern, a spectacular full-beam staircase becomes the iconic element, the "signature" of the yacht; the conventional platform or "beach" hosts another hidden platform that slides silently like a real drawer, tripling the surface area and allowing access to the sea typical of large yachts.
The interiors of this new line are designed to express a sporty, youthful elegance that is in perfect dialogue with the exterior style. Sinuous curves, soft surfaces and refined details create an enveloping, intimate and luxuriously discreet atmosphere.
