The Austrian shipyard Schöchl, which is less known for design extravagance, is launching a provocatively progressive new design

This was created in collaboration between the shipyard, the Slovenian designers Jakopin & Jakopin and the industrial design studio Kiska, which had already designed the lines for the successful Frauscher motorboats. According to the new managing director Andreas Schöchl, the striking design with its overhanging deck, large pull-out bathing platform, huge cockpit and open-plan interior should not only provide pleasure for one person at the wheel when sailing, but for the whole family during their entire stay on board. Read more about the boat in the current issue of YACHT.
