The maxi open Mangusta 110 family continues to grow. Hull number four splashed this week in Italy, in anticipation of making the most of the summer season in the Med.
The semi-custom series, which premiered in 2014, counts customers from around the world. The latest owner is from Europe. Each of the models measures 110’9” (33.8 meters) with a low profile that includes a flying bridge. It’s atypical of maxi opens, which might be part of the attraction.
A big part of the attraction, of course, is the performance. The Mangusta 110 features twin 2,600-hp MTU engines that propel the megayacht to speeds upwards of 33 knots (at half load). This suits the owner’s goal, which is to take guests out to a variety of places over the course of a day. While fast yachts don’t enjoy long range, the yacht still permits seeing about 380 nautical miles at her cruising speed. Regardless of speed, waterjets coupled to the diesel engines help to reduce vibration and sound. Gyroscopic stabilizers help combat pitch and roll while cruising, as well as while at anchor. And, speaking of anchoring, the Mangusta 110 has a shallow draft of just 5’6” (1.7 meters).
Interestingly, the captain and crew don’t need to deploy the anchor to enjoy a cove. The Mangusta 110 has a station-keeping system similar to Dynamic Positioning. It therefore lets the yacht maintain a specific GPS position regardless of current or wind. This, as well as joystick helm control, makes maneuverability more notable.
While we don’t have details on the general arrangement inside, up to four staterooms accommodating eight people are available. Some owners alternately have asked for just three staterooms, with a cinema/games room replacing the fourth guest cabin. What we do know, though, is that the owner selected Piet Boon for interior design. The Dutch company handles furniture design, lighting design, and more.
