Xs of London: perfection labelled Custom Line
sábado, 1 de febrero de 2003
"XS" of London is the second hull of the prestigious Custom Line 112’ series, emphasising her
majestic and disarming beauty. Her smooth interiors are elegant and aristocratic, her exterior
lines are both aggressive and refined. "XS" of London really dominates the seas. She is 34
metres in length and 7,08 metres wide and can host ten passengers and five crew. The dark
blue smoth lines of her hull rises to her white superstructure, all built in composite materials.
Speed and power, in this planing hull, are synonymous with impressive performance: a
maximum speed of nearly 29 knots and a cruising speed of 26 knots are the unforgettable
emotions experienced on this Custom Line 112’. Designed by CRN Engineering and Zuccon
International Project, who cared for the interiors and exteriors, the vessel joins her clean
external layout to the richness of her interiors. The main deck has been conceived as a huge
"living area": the access to a super-equipped galley is from the aft saloon and the ample dining
area is forward. The dominant colours are ivory and beige: from the mocha coloured armchair
by Frau, to the ceiling in light coloured leather, to the walnut frames. Light and brightness are
the main characteristic of this boat. The original semi circular design of the bar on the main
deck, planned as a functional and large space, reproduces the sinuous lines of the sofas
creating a fascinating affect. The light coloured fabrics in the owner’s suite on the lower deck
return like Arianna’s thread. The white wall panels and luminous decorations are magically
matched to the gold coloured silk bedspreads. The two identical guest cabins have single beds
and a hidden pullman bed and each one has a private shower. A detailed study of the interiors
of this mega yacht assures her guests a perfect lifestyle "en pleine air". The upper deck, which
is over 60 metres, is the ideal place to relax: Jacuzzi whirlpool, large comfortable sun loungers,
chaise-longue and bar overlook breathtaking views. A second pilot station, with two sofas on
either side, is also situated outside so that the owner can enjoy all of the yacht’s manoeuvres,
whilst the raised pilothouse allows for the vessel to be easily controlled thanks to the very
sophisticated electronic equipment. Only one word is necessary to sum up the heart and soul
of this mega yacht: perfection, which becomes a reality in this Custom Line creation.
