Genoa-based Otam specialises in customisation requests, but the boutique boatbuilder says its newest and seventh Otam 80HT takes modification to a new level, thanks to “extreme” custom specs from the owner-operator client.
The new Otam 80HT has a particularly robust construction, featuring a full Kevlar hull and deck, complemented by carbon fibre hardtop and deck components selected by the owner.
The Italian shipyard says the selection required an exclusive lamination package and additional uni-directional fibres in high-load areas.
Otam, which is celebrating its 70th anniversary this year, has modified the engineering of the hardtop coupling and removed the central windshield pillar, creating a view with minimal obstruction.
The yacht features a customised dashboard and instrumentation package with multiple back-up systems specified by the owner who will drive and crew the boat himself.
