  1. Picchiotti Vitruvius 55-meter "Galileo G" launches


    The latest yacht in the Picchiotti Vitruvius series launched on the top of the last weekend. She is the second yacht in a series of three (so far) and is 55-meters in length. The first yacht of the series is the widely acclaimed "Exuma".

    This second yacht (55-meter) is named "Galileo G" and comes with steel hull and aluminum superstructure construction. Displacement at full load is expected to be in the region of 753-tonnes. Two CAT 3512C engines are onboard and top speed is around 16-knots with a range of near 9,000 nautical miles at 11-knots possible with 152,000 LT fuel tankage.

    Galileo G comes in a flag blue hull and brilliant white superstructure with her iconic oversized Sat Com dome. The new yacht will have a plethora of toys including a 9.5-meter main Hurricane tender, a 6.3-meter tender and a smaller rescue tender of 4.20-meters.

    She has an ice-classed hull with penetrative and fine entry into the water. The vessel was designed by Vitruvius Ltd and built under hull number C.2156. Naval Architecture was by Philippe Briand with a wide beam of 10.40-meters and full load draft in the region of 3-meters.
