Arcadia 85 tropical edition delivered in Dominican Republic

ARCADIA YACHTS – the innovative and unique "eco-friendly" Italian shipyard – has the pleasure to
announce the successful delivery of #arcadia 85 in its TROPICAL edition at Casa de Campo – Dominican
Republic. This is the very first #arcadia #yacht to arrive in one of the most exclusive Caribbean yacht
location – thanks to the largest and established Dominican Republic brokerage group.
The layout and the functional living concepts of #arcadia 85 are the result of a construction evolution: the
linear #design of the superstructure and the vertical line of the bow allow a better use of every single available
internal and external space. Living capacity is wider than other yachts of the same “nominal” length. The
uniqueness of ARCADIA’s project is finding in the #design solution to integrate solar panels into a #yacht with
navigation performance.
Yard's passion for solar technology and clean mobility is finally expressed in this 25,9m length and 7,15m
width #yacht equipped with approx 40sqm of photovoltaic panels each composed of hundreds of high
performance solar cells. The electricity produced through these panels has a maximum power of approx
4kw. That’s how and where any #arcadia #yacht get alternative energy for equipment on board such as
refrigerators, ice makers, audio-video system, satellite TV antenna, etc. and switch-off the power generators
wihile at anchor in a bay during the daylight.
The #design of #arcadia 85 reflects simple and understated styling with an harmonious blend between the
indoor and outdoor areas. Her deckhouse has been made almost entirely out of double layered reflecting
glass, giving the interior a bright and airy feel. The sliding over-head and lateral blinds can provide privacy
and shade, as required by the owner and his guests once in port or in bay. #arcadia 85 impressive external
aft-deck lounge of approx 47sqm features a well protected cockpit, perfect for dining, as well as large
sunbathing area towards the stern of the #yacht.
ARCADIA 85 is a semi-planing #yacht. Its particular hull (NPL) is named after the National Physical
Laboratory of England where tests were conducted to determine the best shape hull and the best ratio
length-beam in terms of hydrodynamic efficiency. Studies and tests were implemented by ARCADIA’s
technical department as well as hull shape - prior to adopt the NPL as ARCADIA’s Hulls with the result of
excellent sea keeping qualities and noise reduction for an exceptional comfort while cruising or at anchor.
The advanced semi-planing hull which allows efficient performances together with the very light
superstructure in stainless steel significantly reduces weight and fuel consumption and related running costs
of its (relatively to her volumes) low-power engines.
The 25,9 metre #arcadia 85 has a full load displacement of 67 tons. She is powered by twin MAN diesels
R6-730hp each, giving her the maximum speed of 18 knots and she can comfortably cruise at the speed of
16.5 knots, as well as 12.0 knots. Her range is approx 950NM @12.0 knots.
