The BGM75, from BlueGame, is a new luxury motor yacht from the Italian manufacturer. M stands for multihull, but this is a catamaran with a difference: the ratio between beam and length is closer to a monohull. ▫️ ➡️ Renders from Blue Game Yachts ▫️ She is first and foremost a luxurious, motor yacht that has two hulls, not one, but from some angles you wouldn't realise. This has allowed the designers to configure the area between the two hulls as a single space like a monohull allowing for a huge full beam owner’s cabin. ▫️ From the stern, she looks like an elegant and balanced monohull and the space between the two hulls conceals a garage for the tender. The reduced beam allows the BGM75 to be moored up between monohulls. ▫️ They estimate between a 23 and 38% fuel saving compared to a 90ft displacement power monohull with comparable living space. ▫️ BlueGame will be exhibiting at the Cannes Yachting Festival. ▫?? LENGTH 22,70 m - 74 ft 4 in DRAFT 1,30 m – 4 ft. 3 in BEAM 8,15 m – 26 ft. 7 in MAX SPEED 20 knots ▫️ ▫️ ▫️ #luxury #luxuryyacht #powerboat #katamarans
