“The Darwin Class continues to provide us with great satisfaction, firmly establishing itself as a reference in the explorer yachts’ market. This Darwin 86 adds up to a total of twelve Darwins from 86 to 112 feet already delivered.”
The Darwin 86 Empire, acquired by an enthusiast American Owner, showcases bespoke configuration, machinery, and layout meticulously crafted to her Owner’s specifications. Some requests, such as a hull reinforced with bullet proof steel plates, arise from the Owners’ navigation plans, as they seek to venture into distant and challenging seas.
Empire will be a genuine beauty of construction and design boasting the unmistakable Darwin aesthetics by Hydro Tec while leveraging on CdM’s unique approach to technical areas. Her interior design has been developed by Massari Design.
The project, customized according to his Owner precise requests, is designed to sail for long periods at the highest latitudes so she will feature an ‘ice belt’ at waterline level and enhanced scantlings in the hull and rudders to cope with icy conditions. Among the Owner’s requests there are also a fourth pilot station in the engine room.
Her layout interior and design feature a layout consistent with the Owner’s requests as for number of guests and style. The overall onboard atmosphere exudes a sober and understated elegance. The interior designer achieved a warm and inviting ambiance by skillfully blending custom-made furniture with pieces from renowned manufacturers like Poltrona Frau and Poliform.
“The direct relationship with the owner, his 360° involvement in the development of the project at all stages, his emotional at seeing what were just ideas or drawings become reality, are why I do the best job in the world, in the best place.”
