Bigger is not necessarily always better, a fact Maritimo was quite aware of when contemplating their largest sedan model yet, the S75. So, naturally, they took their time – three years, in fact, which included conferring with owners while Managing Director Tom Barry-Cotter drove the architecture team to ensure this first hull was just right for its new Gold Coast-based owner.
The stunning result gleamed before me at its launch during the 2023 Sanctuary Cove International Boat Show, while a flybridge model is already afloat.
“The global launch of the S75 heralds the start of Maritimo’s 20th-anniversary celebrations,” noted Barry-Cotter, “and what could be more fitting than releasing this grand vessel, the epitome of everything that is Maritimo.”
My first impression of the S75 is its striking and sleek profile, thanks to nearly 75 feet of waterline, including the vast 18-square-metre Adventure Deck. Some reverse shear also enhances the look, while the tall hull is stylishly punctuated with elongated dark windows that match the targa bar.
