| Mondomarine 138 |  |
The 48th yacht launched by Italian shipyard
Mondomarine is 42-meter (138-foot) Kimberly II, built for Greek spirits manufacturer
Spyros Metaxa. Studio Ruggiero in Genoa, Italy, created the design package for
this steel-hulled displacement vessel. Powered by twin 1,500-hp Caterpillar
3508Bs, she tops out at 16.5 knots and cruises at a comfortable 15 knots.
Her interior layout is fairly traditional, with the salon,
dining room and owner’s suite located on the main deck. Eight guests are
accommodated in four spacious lower-deck staterooms configured as two doubles
and two twins. Six crew cabins are in the bow, while the captain, chief engineer
and housekeeper are all housed on the upper deck. The yacht’s large sun deck is
its prime gathering spot and features a bar, Jacuzzi and comfortable sun
lounges.
Five more motor yachts are currently in build at the shipyard,
including a 50-meter expedition vessel due for delivery in 2007 to Luciano
Benetton, chairman of the Benetton Group. With these projects, Mondomarine truly
has arrived on the international superyacht scene.
