Overmarine Group will be handing over not just one, but two of its new Mangusta 94 open megayachts this spring. The two were the first contracts signed for the series when it was announced last year.
The Mangusta 94 is based on the Mangusta 92, but she’s not just a little longer, at 94’2” (28.72 meters). Unlike her smaller sister, the Mangusta 94 has a flying bridge, completely devoted to open-air enjoyment. In fact, nearly all of the square footage up here is occupied by a giant sunpad. Another difference between the Mangusta 92 and 94 is that the larger megayacht has a bow cockpit complementing the sunning area. It’s ideal for dining or drinks—or both—given seating and a table, plus is a nice private spot to take in the scenery.
Otherwise, the Mangusta 94 doesn’t really differ too much from the 92, having essentially the same specifications. Beam is 21’7” (6.6 meters), draft is 5’3” (1.6 meters), fuel capacity is 2,325 gallons (8,800 liters), and twin 2,600-hp MTUs coupled with KaMeWa waterjets permit a reported top speed at half load of 38 knots. While Mangusta buyers typically like to harbor hop and therefore aren’t too concerned about having long range, the reported 300 nautical miles at best cruise that the Mangusta 94 should see will be enough to get you where you want to go.
Inside, the main deck is wide open, from the aft-deck doors straight to the triple-seat helm. Four skylights in the saloon makes for a nice atmosphere. Similarly, large ports below decks in the full-beam owner’s suite brighten the area. Two medium-size ports flank a large central one, with the outer windows able to open. Overmarine Group says this window design will be carried through all future Mangusta megayachts.
Even with a main-deck saloon, the Mangusta 94 has a TV/movie lounge below decks, opposite a twin guest stateroom. A VIP fully forward rounds out guest accommodations, and the captain and crew get cabins aft, just forward of the engine room.
