Mangusta & Leopard yachts

The 6th and latest Mangusta 165 is called "Sharq" for those interested.

I do not know if you all realized but the Overmarine/Mangusta website has been done over to a brand new one.

building the mangusta 165

How is the hull of the mangusta 165 built? From a mold or is it peiced together like a cruise ship?

Happy reading:

Onboard a Mangusta 165...this was probably on a seatrial and you can see the boat wasn't finished at the time. Taped up everywhere.

The latest Leopard 34-meter that recently launched is called "Koji", the sixteenth hull of the series.

The seventh and latest (165) hull is called "Misunderstood".

Successor to the Mangusta 130 "Misunderstood"?

I'm not sure but it seems logical...

I looked everywhere on YF and could not find this video of Moonraker so I thought I would try posting this one.

I just came across this thread, can add some info. In 2009 I was aboard Hull 3 during sea trials for an opportunity to experience the design/hull performance as client project manager hired by a ranking Emirate family to build Hull 5, a 47m Mangusta Leopard under contract with Rodriguez Group that had stalled. Hull 3 at 200tonnes on 2nd sea trial made 36knots, 4 more than predicted speed powered by 3 MTU (9000HP) driving twin Ka-me-wa jets and a centre boster. Working with the Mangusta team was a great experience that provided me some very fond memories of a very generous and highly skilled people.

That boat is in San Francisco Bay now ,its beautiful
