The full aluminium yacht will house five staterooms for her 12 guests. Gian Marco Campanino worked together with the shipyard and owner to create the interior spaces with designer Luca Dini once again being in charge of the exterior design and naval architecture.“We are happy for the sale of this new yacht which further strengthens the leadership of our shipyard within this size range for the production of semi-displacement aluminium yachts,” says Group CEO Giuseppe Taranto. “Furthermore, it has been a pleasure to work with the owner and his highly experienced team and we thank the team at Dbeere Yachts for their dedication and professional approach. This is the fourth hull sold from the Impero Series and we know that she will be another turn-head Admiral Yacht.”
