The young studio has worked on only a handful of yacht projects, but their background in industrial and residential design has given them an eye for detail and the renders of the Logica 183 reveal clean, balanced lines and some innovative design solutions. &nbsp; “Perhaps the standout feature of the Logica 183 is the private foredeck area,”&nbsp;says Alessio Benassini, one of <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/5224" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Acube Design (Company)">Acube’</a>s trio of partners. “It’s basically a continuation of the owner’s suite on the forward main deck with a private hot tub and chill-out zone protected by the high bulwarks.” &nbsp;&nbsp;<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/60005/image/large-a808e4d04b6c221f3c3106cb89253474.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/60005">There is a second much larger pool on the forward upper deck, and the sundeck can be completely enclosed by wrap-round glazing as the owner wishes to use the yacht during the off-season.

Unusually, the crew tender is housed in a compartment between the owner’s bathroom and the galley on the main deck. &nbsp;<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/60001/image/large-f970acd80d76a3c4f8821c6256fd8c55.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/60001">The new project also reunites <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/4329" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Logica Yachts (Company)">Logica Yachts&nbsp;</a>and naval architect Pierluigi Ausonio of<a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/4331" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="P.L.A.N.A.

But running at an economical 10 knots on just the central engine her range increases to 6,000nm.” &nbsp;With the steel hull blocks almost complete and construction of the aluminium superstructure due to start in February, the Logica 183 is expected to be launched in June 2020. The intention is that she will be the first in a mini-series. &nbsp;
