Rosetti Superyachts unveils details of its 85m expedition supply vessel concept

Developed in collaboration with Rolls-Royce Marine

“…A genuine expedition #superyacht that I believe meets the aspirations of the market and the practical requirements of the shipyard.”

Fulvio Dodich - Partner and Chairman of Rosetti Superyachts

Following the announcement that #rosettisuperyachts SpA will start building large custom yachts at San Vitale shipyard in Italy (Ravenna), the new company has released details of its 85m expedition supply vessel concept designed by Tommaso Spadolini.

“This is the most ‘authentic’ #yacht I’ve designed in my 40-year career,” says the Italian designer. “A fundamental part of the design process was reviewing the many commercial ships launched by Rosetti to date. These rugged, seaworthy vessels are required to operate around the clock in all weathers, and that same DNA has been integrated into the design of the 85m expedition concept.”

“Another key consideration was that the project had to be buildable following design to market and design to service criteria,” says #fulviododich, Chairman of #rosettisuperyachts. “I’ve known Tommaso for over 20 years and we worked together to develop a design that combines his creativity with my knowledge of the needs of the market, while also meeting the technical criteria required by Class for unrestricted navigation.”

AVAILABLE IN TWO VERSIONS The concept is available in two versions with a fully certified helipad located amidships or aft, depending on client preference. Both configurations are rated at approximately 2,200GT and can carry large tenders on deck, but the aft helipad offers several practical advantages. A sailing #yacht, for example, can be stowed amidships without adversely affecting helicopter operations. With minimal modifications to the design, the spacious salon under the helipad can also be replaced with a dedicated helicopter hangar.

“Despite the abundance of exterior space, we arrived at a general arrangement that makes optimal use of the interior volume of the forward superstructure,” says Spadolini of the fivedeck layout.

The lower deck comprises the galley, crew mess and lounge, and accommodation for 12 crew (the captain’s cabin is on the bridge deck). The main deck houses four double guest cabins with en-suite bathrooms, plus additional crew accommodation.

The full-beam owner’s deck features an open-plan suite forward, His & Her bathrooms, walkin wardrobe, and aft dining room. The upper deck forward is also dedicated to the owner’s use with a private lounge, study and access to the open foredeck with pool. Another salon aft serves as a media room and/or sky lounge.
