2024 Cantiere Delle Marche 86 Darwin

Empire, designed with Hydro Tec’s signature Darwin aesthetics and CdM’s unique technical approach, is a testament to superior construction and design. The yacht’s project has been developed for long voyages also in high-latitude regions, so it includes an ‘ice belt’ at the waterline and reinforced hull and rudders for icy conditions. According to Owner’s requests, the hull has been partially built with

bulletproof steel plates, reflecting his intention to navigate remote and challenging seas. Another unique feature is a fourth pilot station in the engine room.

The interiors, designed by Alessandro Massari to the owner’s specifications for guest accommodations and style, radiates a sober, understated elegance. The designer created a warm, inviting ambiance by blending custom-made furniture with pieces from renowned brands like Poltrona Frau and Poliform.

The Owner’s full beam stateroom is situated amidships on the Lower deck, providing ample space and comfort. Adjacent to this luxurious stateroom are two twin cabins, each equipped with a pullman bed to accommodate additional guests. At the forward end of the Lower deck, a VIP suite offers a private and elegant retreat.

The crew quarters, designed to house four members, are located forward on the Main deck. This area includes a substantial crew mess for communal dining and relaxation. The quarters are strategically connected to the wheelhouse on the Upper deck via a dedicated staircase, ensuring efficient communication and movement for the crew. Empire’s Main deck is the epicenter of social activity, featuring both indoor and outdoor spaces for lounging and dining. A cozy bar enhances the social atmosphere, while the galley is conveniently equipped for meal preparation and service.

The Upper deck is home to a spacious and well-equipped gym, catering to fitness enthusiasts, but it is also a cozy lounging area opening onto a properly furnished stern terrace. The wheelhouse, designed with Boening integrated monitoring and control systems, ensures ease of handling for the captain and crew. The Sun deck, furnished with loose furniture and sunbeds, offers an ideal setting for open-air relaxation and enjoyment.

Measuring 26.30 meters, Empire is a compact and robust vessel, characterized by comfort and reliability. She is powered by twin Scania engines, each delivering 294 kW, and is equipped with three Northern Light Generators, providing a total of 155 kW of power. The yacht also features sodium-lithium chloride batteries for enhanced energy efficiency and is protected by a sophisticated anti-intrusion
