Superior accommodations for 10 to 12 guests, a 500 GRT limit and delivery
in time for the summer Olympic Games were the parameters that shaped the
build of Bravado. Abeking & Rasmussen met the American owner’s request
one week before the contracted delivery with a stunning 44.9-meter
steel-and-aluminum tri-deck. Distinguished by large floor-to-ceiling windows,
her exterior styling and interior design are by Reymond Langton Design.
Built
both to Lloyd’s Rules and the MCA Code, the yacht’s construction includes six
watertight bulkheads and double-bottom tanks for fuel and fresh and black water.
Equipment highlights include fin stabilizers with zero-speed function, an Atlas
shore-power converter with SmartBOX and seamless transfer, and a 100-hp electric
bow thruster. Caterpillar supplied the two 1,000-hp 3508B main engines that
propel her to a maximum speed of 14.5 knots. At 12 knots, she can voyage
3,500 nautical miles.
