AB Yachts has announced the launch of its first AB 100 model.

With an overall length of 30 meters, but with registered length of under 24 meters, the shipyard believes it has perfectly met two major market demands: to maximize interior volumes while keeping the ease of management and running costs of a small yacht, thereby making this model extremely versatile and able to satisfy a wide range of customer requirements.

She is elegant but aggressive, which results in wide appeal. Thanks to large lateral windows, the main deck is awash with natural light, which blurs the boundaries between the interior and exterior spaces. Comfortably seated around the dining table or on the salon sofa, guests are able to enjoy unobstructed panoramic views.

Three MAN engines producing 1900 horsepower each, coupled with MJP waterjets, allow her to reach a top speed of 52 knots in outstanding comfort and stability in navigation.

The exterior deck areas have been specifically designed to enhance and make most of the moments spent in open air, as shown by spacious sunbathing areas and the aft tender garage which is ingeniously finished and transforms into a massive beach club.

The AB 100 will be officially presented at Cannes Yacht Show 2016.
