Legendary custom yacht builder, Astondoa, returns to the Miami Yacht Show with G Marine, "The European Yacht Boutique," its exclusive dealer for North America, Mexico and Caribbean. A new version of the 52 Flybridge, designed with G Marine's input to please today's discerning boater, will make its debut in the United States. Together with its sister ship, the 66 Flybridge, Astondoa will demonstrate the two newest jewels of its cabin cruiser range from 44 to 80 feet. Also debuting in America is the sporty 377 Coupe, the newest, eye-catching, open model from Astondoa. All models demonstrate the shipyard's extensive attention to detail and customization capabilities.

The Astondoa 52 Flybridge

This 52' yacht is compact, sporty and versatile, offering a social, breezy flybridge, a large deck and submersible swim platform, and a bright spacious interior, utilizing natural light. Though classic in construction, the exterior's contours and modern flybridge lines update the look and enhance its cruising ability-an excellent choice for day boating with family and friends, island hopping, or overnighting. G Marine worked with the shipyard to customize the model, adding functional features like the transom garage, outdoor flybridge kitchen, ample lounge areas and a modern carbon fiber lower helm.

Natural wood, leather and top quality decorative features are found throughout the vessel, creating a relaxed atmosphere of minimalist luxury while incorporating three spacious cabins and heads, a top deck helm, galley and salon. The interior spaces are skillfully designed to create a restful and intimate vibe, combining aesthetics with function.

The Astondoa 66 Flybridge

Livable, luxurious and functional, the 66' Flybridge expands the yacht's use as a day cruiser and adds extended range and stay capabilities with MAN V-8 1200 engines, a 950-gallon fuel tank and ample accommodations. Easy to operate by an owner, the yacht is also equipped to include crew quarters as well as tenders and toys on the large swim platform.

The flybridge is ideal for entertaining, offering both shade and sun, an outdoor kitchen and lounging area for all to enjoy with the captain. The essence of boating is experienced "on the fly."

Large, unobstructed windows are a distinguishing feature, providing maximum views of the sea and natural light for the four cabins, galley and salon. This 66' boat feels like a superyacht and offers all hand-built leather and fine wood interiors with amenities to entertain family and friends in fine style.

The Astondoa 377 Coupé

Following the success of the 655 Coupe, Astondoa created this compact model to expand the entry-level appeal of its Open range, featuring easy handling and surprisingly spacious interiors.

At 38' with an inverted bow, characteristic of the Coupé series, the 377's sharp and sporty lines reflect the collaboration of the shipyard with well-known designers from the automotive and supercar sector. A 300-HP Volvo Penta D4 inboard engine guarantees strong performance.

The walk-around layout offers a wooden deck with large bow and aft sun pads. A compact T-top, coupled with a tall windshield, provides excellent visibility and sun protection for its three helm seats and the touch screen console. An amidships seating area with two benches and an electric retractable provides more social space. Inside a lounge/cabin and mini galley, with a refrigerator and audio/TV system, includes a spacious head portside. Four sleep comfortably in the master stateroom and adjacent two-bunk cabin. The 377 Coupe feels exceptionally spacious for its size.

Stay tuned for a future announcement on the outboard version of this model that G Marine sees as appealing to the fun loving, day boaters who enjoy the simplicity and easy maintenance of the new performance outboard technology.
