Fincantieri 145m Fortissimo superyacht

Fortissimo 145m superyacht from Fincantieri, the largest yacht builder in Italy.

Fincantieri , selected Ken Freivokh Design to partner them in the development of an amazing 145m turbine powered Fortissimo superyacht.

“Fortissimo” is a super yacht designed with total flexibility in mind. Essential parts of the superstructure rely on a tremendously rigid spaceframe system which allows large span openings without the need for fashion plates which would prevent full panoramic views. The design concept acknowledges the tremendous power of the turbine installation, and integrates such powerplant as an integral part of the total design. The accommodation remains generous for such a sleek yacht, whilst the owners can enjoy traveling at high speed to reach their destination unusually quickly.

The yacht features 7 decks, including a sun deck, a high visibility bridge and operational deck, a dedicated owner’s deck, a social and entertaining deck which enjoys the use of open yet protected terraces both forward and aft, a guest deck with further terracing and an art gallery with views into the amazing machine room, plus a purposeful crew deck with excellent amenity and crew social spaces and a utility deck which provides handsome accommodation for the galley, laundry, stores, etc. all linked with segregated circulation routes to ensure that the crew can carry on their duties throughout the yacht discreetly and efficiently.

Fincantier’s Fortissimo Superyacht

fincantieri yachts 145 m fortissimo superyacht

It’s the kind of assignment that most design teams can only dream of: Create a turbine-powered superyacht that’s not only very large, but amazing.

That’s exactly what Ken Freivokh Design and Fincantieri Yachts accomplished when they collaborated on the Fortissimo superyacht concept which measures an impressive 145 meters and is capable achieving speeds of over 35 knots.

The Fortissimo features a total of seven decks, including a sun deck, a high-visibility bridge and operational deck, a dedicated owner’s deck, a social and entertaining deck, a guest deck and a crew deck. The utility deck, which contains the galley, laundry and stores, was designed with segregated circulation routes to ensure that the crew can carry on their duties throughout the yacht discreetly and efficiently. Eight suites await the owners and their guests, and the yacht can accommodate a crew of 48. Other amenities include a see-through swimming pool and Jacuzzi and a main deck gymnasium and bar. achieving speeds of over 35 knots.

This futuristic superyacht also sports garages fore and aft to house toys and tenders, including a couple of elegant 10-meter, high-performance tenders; a limo tender; and utility, sports and rescue tenders, all launched via beam cranes from sophisticated shell doors. achieving speeds of over 35 knots.

A critical element of the Fortissimo’s design is its rigid spaceframe system which enables full panoramic views. The design concept also acknowledges the tremendous power of the turbine installation, and integrates the powerplant as an integral part of the total design. The guest deck contains an art gallery that offers views into the machine room which is a work of art in itself. achieving speeds of over 35 knots.

As Ken Freivokh notes, “. . . it is essential that the design is developed in close collaboration with a truly experienced yard, and we feel privileged that our lateral thinking proposals were creatively analyzed and brilliantly resolved by Fincantieri’s in-house engineering team.” achieving speeds of over 35 knots.

The Fortissimo is much more than luxurious — it’s a totally unique concept that would surely turn heads on any body of water.

The largest super yacht builder in Italy, Fincantieri, selected Ken Freivokh Design to partner them in the development of an amazing 145m turbine powered super yacht. The 145m Fortissimo is all about effortless motion, long sight lines, the sensation of space, of speed of purity of line, the very special sensation which is the invisible by-product of perfect proportions, the transparency between interior and exterior, the interplay of levels, the handsome triple height atrium, the treatment of the yacht as a proper transportation machine communicating the structure and the direct relationship with the sea.

The inspiration was definitely structure based – it is essentially a very large, very long yacht, very much an ocean going vessel, to be subjected to stresses which require a sound structural solution. Rather than rely on the conventional internal structures which are mainly reinforcements to the hull and deck plating, the idea is to have the equivalent of a space frame structure which is much more efficient, and would leave the hull and deck to be calculated simply as the skin of the yacht. This concept extends to the side decks, where traditionally one would find the normal overhangs over the passageways, with the occasional styled fashion plate. Instead, a more elegant solution has been found, whereby the hull and deck are treated as part of the same major structure, with what effectively is the equivalent of a Vierendeel beam linking both and adding strength as well as visual excitement

Ken Freivokh 145m yacht concept ‘Fortissimo’

Ken Freivokh Design has been selected as one of the finalists for the International Yacht & Aviation Awards 2014 with the 145m mega yacht Fortissimo concept, entering the ‘Yacht Concept Design over 30 metres’ category. Representing one of the fastest superyachts in the world, yacht Fortissimo concept design is a high performance gas turbine vessel, based on a platform developed by Fincantieri Shipyard. Fortissimo is all about effortless motion, long sightlines, the sensation of space, of speed, of purity of line, the transparency between interior and exterior, the interplay of levels, the handsome triple height atriums, the treatment of the yacht as a proper transportation machine communicating the structure and the direct relationship with the sea. The inspiration was definitely structure based – it is essentially a very large, very long yacht, very much an ocean going vessel, to be subjected to stresses which require a sound structural solution. Instead of relying on conventional internal structures, Fortissimo’s structural solution is the equivalent of a space frame structure which is much more efficient than a beam and post structure, and the hull and deck can be calculated simply as the skin of the yacht. The Fortissimo yacht concept extends to the side decks, where traditionally one would find the normal overhangs over the passageways, with the occasional styled fashion plate. Again, a more elegant solution has been found, whereby the hull and deck are treated as part of the same major structure, with what effectively is the equivalent of a Vierendeel beam linking both and adding strength as well as visual excitement. A unique feature of the Fortissimo superyacht design is the transparency between interior and exterior, the interplay of levels, the handsome triple height atriums, the treatment of the yacht as a proper transportation machine communicating the structure internally and externally, as well as a direct relationship with the sea.

Dykstra’s Exo superyacht concept borrows the idea of exoskeletons from nature to create wide open space below decks

Defined as a yacht over 78ft (24m), superyachts are run by a professional crew and are often built to eye-watering specifications (and budgets!)

For many years, the word superyacht was synonymous with fuel-guzzling motor boats. It is refreshing, then, to see that many superyacht designers in recent years returning to sail, alongside experimenting with form and function.

From 100ft wooden yachts fitted with fully electric systems – taking advantage of advances in clean energy – to luxury day cruisers and high performance minded designs, the world of the superyacht sailing boats continues to be an innovative space.

Even fuel powered superyachts are seeing a boom in creative design and are breaking boundaries in terms of what can be done to make huge luxury cruisers environmentally friendly while providing the ease of use and aesthetics to be expected in a £multi-million yacht.
