Arrow Wider 42: The Transforming Motor Yacht



Wider 42: The Transforming Motor Yacht
A concentration of adrenaline and fun. A playground to enjoy at sea, packed with intuitive features which make her unique. The wider cockpit, patented by Tilli Antonelli, makes it possible to create an impressive walkable surface area of 18m² in the cockpit and a 6.6m width at waterline, unthinkable for a 42 footer until now.

High performance and lightweight, Wider has been built by exploring brand new vacuum infusion molding (Scrimp System) techniques for carbon and vinylester resins, also used in both Formula 1 and the aerospace industry. The resulting product is particularly aerodynamic, and features two strong points: maximum efficiency and minimum waste. These aims have also been achieved through the shape of the hull, produced according to the stepped hull – typical of racing yachts – method. Creating an air cushion between the surface of the sea and the hull, the yacht rises up slightly, maintaining a highly dynamic sailing trim.

I am really digging the outside of the box mentality on this project, looks great. It should make a great day cruiser.

^ I am not sure about the price, all I know is that they have this one-off and doing a lot of promo. The concept is very intriguing and it can make a great day cruiser but the price will no doubt be in the premium side.

Just take a look at the helm

I will try to get a hold on the representative in the Caribbean tomorrow and see if he can tell me how much it costs.
