Beside the excellent performance, Tecnohull Omega 47 features a large cabin and luxurious finishes. Seven units have already been sold.
On the wave of the success of the popular Omega 45, Tecnohull Omega 47 is the new flagship of the Greek boatyard. It is slightly longer and broader of the predecessor, to offer a flexible deck space and a comfortable interior. But the performance is still one of its core values, with top speeds north of 80 knots.
Luxury is fast, space is too
You can feel the extra room of Omega 47 on deck, where several configurations are available, including extra helm seating, a cockpit table and additional sunpads for lounging.
And in the cabin below, which offers much more space than you expect from a fast RIB. It’s enough for a double V-berth, a full-height shower and heads compartment, and plenty of storage for clothes and other items. The cabin receives ample natural light via sleek windows in the deckhead, but it also benefits from LED lighting, which emphasizes the superyacht-style finish. Quality leather, exotic veneers and premium Corian combine to create a sense of real luxury.
On the main deck, a full walk-around layout is a feature of every Technohull. It gives easy access to a sunpad and a seat forward, where an optional bimini can be rigged on custom carbon poles. Aft, there’s a sofa in fine, hand-finished leather in the color desired by the owner. In seconds this converts into a huge sunpad, using the matched fill-in.
For the entertainment of guests there’s a fully equipped wet bar with fridge, optional cooktop, espresso machine and water maker, plus a high-quality Fusion Apollo marine audio as standard.
_To handle properly a big rib with such power, Tecnohull have given Omega 47 their patented Dynastream hull, which employs two distinct steps in the hull to channel air in.
Speed and raw good looks are as much a part of the new Tecnohull Omega 47’s DNA as they are of all the manufacturer’s boats. Versatile transom design gives the owner different choices when it comes to propulsion. Options include the brand new, amazing twin 600hp Mercury Verado V12 outboards, for the state of the art in technology (read the article at our link below to discover these wonder engines). Otherwise, there’s room on the transom for up to four 450hp Mercury Racing motors, for 1800 hp in total, or for two diesel-powered inboards, even with surface drives.
Performance can exceed 80 knots, making the 47 a true sports boat.
To handle properly a big rib with such power, Tecnohull have given Omega 47 their patented Dynastream hull. Developed over five years with a dedicated in-house team of naval architects, Dynastream employs two distinct steps in the hull to channel air in. This provides lift, natural cushioning and stability at all speeds. What’s more, this hyper-ventilated hull shape is 10-15 per cent more efficient than previous Technohull designs, according to the yard, offering lower fuel consumption for higher speeds.
Through a rigorous process of CFD simulation, scale and full-sized tank testing, and utilizing the performance results of stepped hulls systematic series from industry’s leading test facilities, Technohull has gained a thorough understanding of this technology. It is part of what allows the boat to plane at low speeds and achieve its impressive top speed. The super deep-V hull form also makes the Omega 47 a dry boat, deflecting spray and cutting through waves.
Digital switching puts control over the boat’s systems at the helmsman’s fingertips. Navigation options run from solid-state Quantum radar to a remote-control searchlight and night vision camera. The ergonomically designed helm console and shock-mitigating seats make driving the boat safe and comfortable.
And this blend of space, luxury and performance seems to be a winning one, according to the company’s release which tells of seven Tecnohull Omega 47 already sold. Six are staying in the central Mediterranean, while one is already in the US.
