Nauta Design has revealed its latest project; at 74.85 metres in length overall with a beam of 12.8 metres, the XP75 explorer goes well beyond any other explorer project the studio has designed to date.
Based on a client brief, the engineering by Azure Naval Architects is well advanced and comes complete with a 200-page specification document.
Nauta says the XP75 is “more than just a concept, it’s a mature project ready to start building”.
The technical spaces have been designed to allow for diesel-electric or hybrid propulsion with batteries (space can also be set aside for methanol tanks) with the aim of reducing the yacht’s environmental impact, saving fuel and increasing range.
Studies have been conducted to ensure operational efficiency and reduce fuel consumption. Special double glazing reduces heat transfer, for example, and engine cooling water is recycled.
