From a German Frers' design Maxi Dolphin 118' is the buttonhole of Maxi Dolphin's new production line now ranging from 65' up to 118' for semi-custom boat series.
Constructed with composite material, 36 metres length overall for 8 metres with maximum beam, Maxi Dolphin 118' has a sloop rig with mast and boom in Carbon fibre by Southern Spars from New Zealand, deck gear and winches by Harken and sails by North Sails Italia.
The sail plan and the entire rigging have been designed to make handling the yacht as easy as possible; and a crew of four is really sufficient to comfortably sail her on a cruise.
The bulb sliding fin is mobile and can be adjusted to obtain a maximum draft of 5.50 metres during the sailing and a minimum of 3.50 metres when sailing in shallow waters. Besides the 550 hp main engine Maxi Dolphin 118' has at her disposal also a 130 hp auxiliary engine which supplies power to the hydraulic circuit that handles the fin piston, the sail plan rigging and the stern hatch.
