Packing 10,400 hp, Da Vinci takes her owner and guests, including charter guests, where they want to go, quickly. Better yet, this Mangusta 165, the 11th in the series, indulges them in serene spaces to take the weight of the working world off their shoulders.
Like the 165s that came before her, Da Vinci shows off sporty, sculpted, even muscular lines. Even the grillwork on the aft end of the flying bridge adds to her aesthetic appeal. Mangustas are made by Italy’s Overmarine Group, a builder which never misses an opportunity to add style where there typically is none.
As a maxi open design, the Mangusta 165 also doesn’t miss an opportunity to maximize alfresco space. From the long aft deck to the extended flying bridge, guests can lounge, sun, sip, and generally enjoy each other’s company. One particularly welcoming spot aboard Da Vinci is the bow seating area. It has a hot tub, surrounded, of course, by sunpads.
However, if it’s off-the-yacht fun you seek, Da Vinci delivers. Her tender garage is toy central. A pair of PWCs, plus kayaks, paddleboards, and SeaBobs are all on hand.
Inside this semi-custom megayacht, the owner and interior designer Maxine Tissenbaum leave no doubt you’re onboard a luxury yacht. A bar spanning the port side of the saloon is covered in black Zebrino marble. More black Zebrino marble combines with two additional marbles in the entryway from the aft deck. They’re Blue Palissandro and black and white Marquina. As you’ll see in the video, they set quite the scene.
You’ll also see the serenity of the staterooms, from the master suite to two of the three guest cabins. As for that third cabin, it’s a smile-inducing bunks room, with pops of blue and black.
