Navetta 73 makers her debut as the top of the Absolute Yacht range. The official launch of this semi-displacement trawler will happe during Cannes Yachting Festival in September.
The “modern-classic” boats’ segment in general, and more specifically the trawlers’ one are living their best years. Still. the market is far from being saturated, and many boat builders have their own ideas and ways to interpret the theme.

Absolute is well known

Here is the idea of Absolute Yachts for a new trawler, which features a well articulated and finely furnished layout, with the usual abundance of space typical of the brand.
As for the space on board, Absolute is well known for the surprising volumetry of the interiors, especially hen compared to the overall dimensions of the boat.
One of the first spaces to amaze is the flying bridge, more proper of a superyacht, and whose layout and gratifying furnishing is made to mimic the ones in the salon below.

And talking of the salon itself, it sports an atmosphere of luxurious refinement thanks to the different hues of brown and beige. Here too there’s a nice living space to aft, with sofas, armchairs and TV cabinet, and a dining room to bow with a table for eight. The galley is in a separate, between the dining room and the pilothouse, as normally on such boats there’s on-board crew to serve the guests. For the same reason, Navetta 73 also features a direct staircase from the galley to the flying bridge, so the crew can move up and down without crossing the salon.

The lower deck sports four cabins with en-suite, and a pretty modern décor as the rest of the boat. Worth a mention is the finishing details which extend even to the bulkheads.
The owner, as expected, has a full-beam suite amidships, with the bathroom to port side divided into three separated areas: WC on one side, shower cabinet on the opposite, and sink countertop in the middle. As for the VP cabin to bow, the availability of space and – of course- the level of care will give the owners a second choice for their favorite room.
The crew is accommodated to the far aft, with two cabins and direct access to the engine room.

As for the powertrain, Absolute Navetta 73 boasts twin brand new Volvo Penta D13 engines coupled to IPS1350 transmissions. We will test her soon and provide you with all our readings, meanwhile the chance to see her and schedule a free trial is for the upcoming Cannes Yachting Festival from September the 12th.
