ICE YACHTS has recently launched its 70 feet flagship, a sleek sport cruising yacht in which the use of the highest technology combined to the yard’s decades of experience have brought to life a top-end performance cruiser.

Technology, performance, and versatility are the key words that describe the recently launched ICE 70 Talassa. Conceived by Italian studio Felci Yacht Design to provide superior comfort and top performance, the new ICE 70 has been designed using the most advanced modelling and CFD hull analysis software available today, bringing hull and structures efficiency, as well as space optimization, to the highest levels. Additionally, these avant-garde systems have allowed owner and shipyard to participate in many geometric and stylistic choices, thus offering the highest levels of customization.

Keeping performance and comfort in mind, the ICE 70 features a canoe-shape hull characterized by a reduced wet surface and high stability of form. The extensive use of carbon fibre for hull, deck, and structures also ensures fast, comfortable sailing as it delivers light weight, in fact the yacht’s displacement is just 25 tons, and superior rigidity, which also guarantees high safety standards, paramount aspect at ICE YACHTS. Featuring carbon mast with electric furling boom by Max Spar, the rigging as well has been designed for easy handling and top performance in all weather conditions.

The exterior deck design is characterized by clean lines and large, uncluttered spaces endowing the ICE 70 with a sleek, exclusive look. The single, large cockpit, which stems from a thorough ergonomic and functional study, guarantees maximum security, comfort, and ease of handling. The benches are wide, and the central table, which can accommodate 8 guests, is an authentic piece of architecture and technology. Made in carbon and teak, the base boasts two separate storage compartments, and three large electronic displays. The dodger and the bimini are also the work of extensive research. Built with the help of the virtual room, which allows to verify every functional concept in advance, they are perfectly integrated and provide a truly protected environment that allows to comfortably live outside even when the weather is not particularly favourable. As for manoeuvring, the numerous hydraulic and electric systems, and the rationally and cleverly arranged equipment, have all been designed to allow for short-handed sailing, being this one of the requests of the owner of Talassa, who loves cruising with his family but also enjoys sailing alone with his trusted captain. For instance, winches are set back and easily accessible, whilst the mainsail halyards run below deck back to the cockpit and can thus be operated directly from the wheel. To boost even further the sailing experience, the ICE 70 is equipped with a carbon bowsprit, designed in every detail, and carefully built, it can fit both gennaker and code zero. Additionally, it can be employed as a bow roller for the anchor. In line with the yard’s philosophy to provide a superior experience both under sail and at anchor, the ICE 70 features a lifting keel that goes from 2.8 to 4.5 metres, thus improving performance and stability under sail and allowing to anchor in the most beautiful secluded Mediterranean coves. To guarantee on board comfort the ICE 70 also features numerous storage areas, as the large garage aft that can house a 3.8m rigid tender as well as all sorts of sailing equipment.

As for the overall external aesthetics, ICE 70’s sleek, clean lines are further enhanced by the squared, flat, and slender deckhouse, whose large double-layer glass windows fill the interior with abundance of natural light. Inside as well, to provide superior comfort, the greatest attention has been paid to the smallest details. In keeping with ICE YACHTS’ superior craftsmanship, the overall interior décor is characterized by the synergy between the yard’s excellent naval carpentry and a classic modern aesthetic, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere for owners and guests to enjoy their time on board. Upon entering the lower deck, the bright “raised” living room provides plenty of space to relax and socialize in complete comfort. As far as the sleeping accommodations are concerned, the ICE 70 boasts a spacious owner suite in the bow – fitted with a studio and bathroom with a shower and sauna entirely covered in teak – and a guest cabin forward of the saloon, consisting of a double bed with large wardrobe and dedicated bathroom. On the other hand, the aft area is entirely devoted to the crew quarters, featuring the captain’s cabin with direct access to the kitchen area, thus guaranteeing complete privacy to owner and guests. In fact, this was one of the requirements of the owner of Talassa, who wished for a comfortable, spacious interior in which to enjoy his time on board with family and guests in complete privacy.

Launched on July 26^th, the new model by ICE YACHTS, renowned for its passion for superior craftsmanship and cutting-edge technologies, is a clear example of this Italian yard’s constant strive to meet clients’ wants and needs.
