Vismara V62_03 Mills Launch

A new luxury jewel with the interior design by Arch. Monica Leona

Viareggio, 11 June 2016 – In a beautiful ceremony at the Vismara headquarters in Viareggio, the latest in the series of 62ft fast cruising yachts was launched. With more than 150 guests looking on, the new jewel in the Vismara crown was lowered into the water for the very first time.

Built for a highly experienced owner who was looking for a yacht that combined searing performance with the most elegant of lines and finishes, and in keeping with the full tradition of the Italian shipyard, the Vismara V62_03 Mills ‘WIZARD’ is constructed entirely of carbon fibre including her mast and furling boom. The yacht, born from the Vismara’s experience in the construction of composite sail and motor yachts, and which the in-house design studio worked closely with the Irish Mills Design in the development of water lines and appendices has certainly not disappointed.

The stunning interior design was deceloped by Architect Monica Leone. Born in Milan, the Leone is mainly engaged in design, interior construction and interior design, although she has a keen sailor and understands the importance of finding a balance between style, comfort and practicality in an ocean-going yacht such the V62 which needs to work both as a lightweight performance yacht and a authentic blue water cruiser.

‘WIZARD’s interior features three separate areas; the two twin guest cabins, each their own ensuite heads, a large saloon area for relaxation with an expansive and well-equipped galley, and the master cabin which offers generous space to her owner with further access to the crew area located forward in the plumb bow section. The interior is finished in oak which helps to softens and create sinuous lines with a nod to more classic yachts. All material choices have been made to make the cabin spaces, relaxing, comfortable and practical.

Externally, the classic interior cues are left firmly behind with a hull sprayed in grey graphite giving ‘WIZARD’ a sporty, focussed and modern tone.Last but not the least is the choice of colors.

Monica Leone: “it was a very creative experience that got me involved actively in all phases of development of the boat, from the preliminary studies for the project, for now I can not wait to sail!

Alessandro Vismara: “in more than 30 years of shipbuilding we are here today to celebrate another great boat for an important clients . If we could make a comparison with other markets we could say that over the years we went from racing cars to luxury ones , this is our DNA”.
