Overview The Schaefer 600 is a 18.08 m motor yacht designed to introduce a new concept of space and onboard technology. The model features a submersible swim platform that lowers 30 cm below the waterline and a layout engineered for flexible day and night use.

Design and comfort Naval architecture and interior layout were developed by Schaefer Yachts engineering. The swim platform supports up to 800 kg — suitable for jet-skis or inflatable tenders — and includes an integrated ladder for re-boarding. Two wide retractable side balconies expand the social areas on deck, providing additional space for seating, tables and free circulation.

Technology and propulsion The vessel is equipped with advanced navigation and control systems: multi-touch displays, joystick control, advanced sensors and a Glass Cockpit for intuitive operation. Highlighted propulsion example: Volvo Penta IPS 950, offering strong power and torque, a mechanical compressor for increased low-rpm boost, an improved silencer and a better-insulated air filter to reduce noise and vibration.

Finish and craftsmanship High-grade materials and handcrafted details are applied throughout the boat to ensure refined finish and consistent attention to assembly and ergonomics, suitable for professional-purpose and owner-operated use.
