This concept is a new "classic" U.S. Fisherman yacht. Despite various types,the architectural "type" is always reckonable in the shape of these boats:low high of the transom and cockpit plane,clear bow flushing deck,tuna-tower and driving consolle on "fly".So, my idea is:reduce the environmental impact merging new technologies with the boat design staying focused on this trend:so,I respect these instances also giving to the boat an "old style soul".This Fisherman yacht is a translation of this idea:a boat with classic and reckonable shapes that is,"under the dress",an high-tech marine craft.
