News: The Vicem 65 Classic Flybridge

65 Classic Flybridge By Vicem
​

YF briefly covered the standard Vicem 65 Classic model in the past but has not yet referenced the 65 Classic Flybridge version. Besides the model having the obvious addition of a flybridge there is a thrust to make the boat more modern overall while still keeping the traditional and classic features Vicem is known for. The 65 Classic Flybridge as you may expect is built via the cold-molded process as the yard has utilized this method for a long time. However, the yacht can also be manufactured in Fiberglass -GRP, Sandwich PVC, Vinlyester Resin-.

Vicem also gives the option to have regular shaft and rudder configuration or podded Volvo Pentas D11 725HP. The vessel can be powered to accommodate a top speed near 32-knots and cruise quickly at 25-knots for better range. The vessel is also more geared towards sustainable running with lithium batteries onboard, the 65 Classic Flybridge can potentially run on them for 15 hours or more which allows for clean, silent and more environmentally friendly operations. This would be pretty handy when anchored overnight.

Below deck is where a full-beam master suite and a large V-berth. The cabins are on either side of the galley/common area on the deck. The common area on the starboard side has a dining L-shape set-up which can in theory be partitioned-off from the galley and be converted to make a third cabin if that is needed. Typically the boat will run as a full two-cabin vessel.

Here's a look at what the Flybridge version of the 65 Classic model offers. It is a flybridge naturally because it has a secondary helm position here. The flybridge also turns out to be a nice al-fresco area for guests. Built-in settee on the port side is serviced by a couple of smaller tables. Aft of this position is more built-in seating but this time for a layout pad. The good thing is that the entire flybridge is covered by a hardtop. On the other side there is facility for grilling, a sink, fridge, ice-maker etc. Access to the flybridge is via a curved stair at the aft. The flybrige version offers more space and real estate within a similar footprint as the standard 65 Classic.
