Italia 16.98

Defined by precision engineering and refined aesthetics, the new Italia Yachts 16.98 represents a sophisticated approach to the cruiser-racer segment. With an overall length of 17.1 meters and a beam of 4.85 meters, this vessel offers a stable yet responsive platform designed for both competitive sailing and comfortable long-range cruising. The hull is powered by a Volvo Penta 75 Hp engine paired with a Sail-Drive transmission. The interior environment showcases superior craftsmanship, featuring marine plywood bulkheads finished in horizontal teak veneer with a hand-rubbed satin touch. Owners can choose between multiple layout configurations, ranging from a 3-cabin/2-bathroom standard setup to an optional 4-cabin arrangement, ensuring versatility for different crew requirements. The spacious dinette includes a generous 140 x 85 cm table, while the linear galley design provides nearly four meters of functional workspace equipped with a three-burner gimballed stove. Built for performance and ease of handling, the deck layout includes an extensive array of high-quality hardware. It features dual jib tracks with adjustable cars, twelve stoppers, and a complete suite of blocks for halyard and reefing management. The cockpit is designed for efficiency, complemented by an openable transom system that provides easy access to the sea. The forward sail locker offers independent deck access, with the option to convert this space for crew accommodation. This new boat is currently available to be configured to the owner's specifications at our agency located in Marina Cala de' Medici, Rosignano Solvay. Please note that the list price refers to the vessel without equipment, and VAT is excluded. Leasing options are available for those interested in flexible acquisition financing.
