SEVEN Yacht for Sale

Style-wise, the curvaceous, Italian-designed flying bridge motoryacht is the trendsetter these days. Drop by any marina in the country and you’ll likely encounter several midrange motoryachts–and probably a few mondo motoryachts–that derive their appearance and panache from the famous Italian flair for fabulous fashion.

What makes great styling work, of course, is the stylist’s ability to maximize style while engendering a smidgen of practicality. The extra visibility afforded by the familiar double-eye-shape side windows on most modern Italianate motoryachts is a good example of this, and so are the cockpit shade their elongated boat decks offer and the convenience of their lower helm stations, which are functional yet seamlessly blend with highly finished European decors.

The Italian-built Aicon 56 perfectly reflects this style. Not only has Italian designer Fulvio di Simoni taken the exterior layout of this creamily gelcoated, three-stateroom, three-head motoryacht well beyond contemporary thinking.
