Arcadia yachts sherpa 4 units sold

After the successful on water debut at the latest Cannes Yachting Festival 2016 and two important awards received – The World Yachts Trophies 2016 – in the category “Most Innovative Yacht” from 50 to 80 feet –and Boat of the Year 2016 in the motor yacht category – Arcadia Yachts is pleased to reveal all the details about the appreciated new “entry level” Sherpa.

Sherpa, unveiled for the first time last January 2016 during the Boot Dusseldorf,today counts 4 units sold -all in the open deck version – with 3 in Europe and 1 in the United States.

Ugo Pellegrino – President of Arcadia Yachts remarks with satisfaction:

“Once again Arcadia Yachts has been able to surprise by launching for the first time something novel. A ‘small/large yacht’ with a futuristic design still missing in the array of products offered in the yachting arena. A smart and compact boat, which, thanks to her characteristics in relation to her size, also opens up to all those fans of the big and over-powered day-cruiser. SHERPA represents an alternative solution for those ones who prefer the tranquillity of

cruising at 18-20 knots. SHERPA is for those ones who consider low consumption an added value, not alack of power performances. SHERPA is for those ones who want to enjoy and have their guests enjoy the luxury of  large convivial outdoor area, or the serene conversations on comfortable sofas during cruising,protected by a large awning.”

The production of SHERPA is part of the recent extension of Arcadia Yachts’ GRP range.Together with the Arcadia 100 (presently under construction), the yard’s GRP family line is as follows: SHERPA – ARCADIA 85– ARCADIA 85S – ARCADIA 100 – ARCADIA 115. All models are built using dedicated molds, one for each model.

ARCADIA SHERPA – KEY FACTS

– 17.70m LOA with an exceptional 5.60m beam

– Unexpected storage spaces – SHERPA’s tender garage guarantees an unusual volume for this size yacht.

AREA: 13 square meters / 140 square feet – VOLUME: 7 cube meters / 247 cube feet

– High efficiency NPL hull improved by new technical solutions adopted as the result of studies conducted in partnership between Arcadia’s technical department and Volvo Penta

– Two different superstructures options: Open deck and Salon deck

–  Extremely flexible layout: one, two and three cabin versions  –  Sherpa has been designed to get the maximum in layout flexibility

– A 41 square meter (441 square feet) cockpit – the same as the Arcadia 85

– Convertible Sport flying-bridge “easy-to-close” upper deck area with automatic up/down window system

– At full displacement a speed of 12 knots, with a consumption of apx. 43 liters/hour

– 4KW of solar panel energy

– Waste water treatment

– Eco anti fouling

SHERPA is a “forward thinking design yacht”with an overall length of 17,70m  and a width/beam of 5,60m, even more marked by the concept of “open space” of the aft cockpit to which Arcadia has accustomed us since its debut.  A compact size able to confirm all of the key factors of bigger yachts available  in the range of the yard (internal/external areas and volumes, high performance  efficient  hull,minimalist and neat interiors). SHERPA can be perfectly compared to much larger boats (65 ft) for her LWL(16,10m) and beam (5,60m).

The efficient length/width ratio given by the specific NPL hull is another factor  that contributes to the unbelievable volumes of the yacht, and, at the same time, it’s certainly a winning factor for potential customers oriented towards yachts of this size.

As usual, Guide a Design has been responsible for the design and naval architecture of this innovative model,in collaboration with the technical department of Arcadia Yachts.

SHERPA is the natural evolution of Arcadia fleet towards reduced size boats.  This amazing small yacht manages to keep integral in only 58 feet the vision and features that make each Arcadia yacht different from the rest of its competitors, having also given to the volumes on board a new concept of distribution, aimed at putting forth areas more used by guests, such as the stern cockpit, the living area, and cabins.

FLEXIBILITY AND LAY-OUT

In the development of Sherpa, one of the major goals has been the achievement of maximum flexibility. The shipyard offers a variety of arrangements depending on the use, such as day cruiser, shadow boats, supply vessels for mega-yachts, mini yacht in support to villas overlooking the sea, or simply a day-boat, a fisherman, etc. It offers two different superstructure options.

Open deck, definitely preferred in the Mediterranean market, and Salon deck, for tropical zones or those ones very cold, which make greater use of easily air-conditioning areas.

SHERPA also offers many layout options: they have available one-, two-, or three-cabin models.

The Open version, with the main deck used mostly as the aft cockpit, offers  an area of over 40 square meters completely free, a huge terrace overlooking the sea that can be arranged at the owner’s liking with sunbathing  areas, sofas, armchairs, tables, furniture and so on, according to one’s needs of life  on board.

SHERPA also lends as a support boat to waterfront villas or mega-yachts, being at the same time an entertaining “party-boat,” able to accommodate a  surprising number of guests. If the owner wishes a day-boat, this type of use would suggest the specific Open deck configuration with just one cabin for the owner. Instead, a use for cruises and mini-cruises by an owner with a young  family would see the boat internally arranged according to a layout with 2/3 cabins.

-Version with one cabin (owner suites)

Sherpa comes with a large owner’s suite, which includes a living room/lounge zone modular thanks to sliding

panels that allow the separation into  different areas. It’s also equipped with a large closet and a bathroom with full beam with a beautiful shower.

-Version with two cabins

In this version, in addition to the large owner’s suite equipped with a significant wardrobe and a full beam bathroom with wonderful shower. The  second cabin, with two comfortable beds and a practical guest bathroom with  a separate shower, consistently offers 2m height. This bathroom has an external  access  to the second cabin to allow for its use as day-head for guest during the day.

-Version with three cabins

The version with three cabins of the new Arcadia model proposes the owner’s double cabin bow, with large bathroom and separate shower. The two guest cabins offer a consistent height of 2m, and have a shared bathroom accessible from the hallway. Sherpa offers the chance to account for 1 cabin for a possible sailor.

-For the Asian market or Tropical climates

Sherpa has also been studied for the Asian market. In the Salon Deck version, it provides a solution to the great demand of shaded spaces. The veranda can be, in a special version, further stretched. For a use in

tropical climates, the Cabin Deck version offers extensive use of air-conditioning not only in the deck are about also in the Flying Bridge/Lounge, extremely flexible thanks to an intelligent use of perimeter windows with

electric/power folding.

AN INNOVATIVE AND CONVERTIBLE SPORTS FLYING BRIDGE

Arcadia SHERPA introduces a new concept of sports flying-bridge- “Easy-to-close” -convertible into a closed platform, completely protected by the side windows that can be raised up to meet the hardtop. Just like in cars, the upper deck of SHERPA become “convertible.” The entire upper deck area, being equipped with air-conditioning, becomes much more flexible and usable in all weather conditions, in very hot climates or in bad weather – or left open – as with any traditional flying bridge.
