A fabulous new concept megayacht

Make sure you visit Icon Yachts and view their fabulous 85m concept megayacht Britannia when you go to this year’s Monaco Yacht Show.  Designed by Laurent Giles Naval Architects, H2 Yacht Design and Icon Yachts, Britannia is elegant and sleek.  “Our aim was to produce a design with wide market appeal and character to make it individual and be recognizable as an Icon product,” explains Jonny Horsfield, H2 Yacht Design’s founder.

This megayacht has style and many innovations including a glass elevator and a circular dining room which is encircled by full length windows. Further features include a glass bottom Jacuzzi which cleverly filters light into the bridge deck. There is a beach club which has another Jacuzzi, sauna and a hamam. Britannia can accommodate a maximum of 24 guests and a crew of around 25. However, depending on your own specs, a very luxurious and spacious arrangement of accommodations for 12 plus a magnificent stateroom for the owner can easily be done.

The recommended means of propulsion, is a diesel-electric engine which should give a top speed of 19 knots with a cruising speed of 16 knots. When cruising at 16 knots, the range should be in the region of 6,000 nautical miles. Britannia is equipped with 2 limousine tenders to shuttle guests to and from port. She is also kitted out with a selection of water toys and water sports equipment.
