Press Release from Explorer Yachts

Occasionally something new and very different will appear in the marketplace and the effect that it has is profound. We knew from the very first days of development that the Marlow Explorer 78E would excel in every test applied from strength to performance to visual beauty. Each and every Marlow Explorer is built with the quality and care you would find in completely custom yacht. We create an interactive experience for our customers and encourage your input so that the final product is an expression of your dreams. Our technologically advanced method of construction allows the absence of interior bulkheads creating a spaciousness in these yachts that permits nearly every requirement for space, storage and cabin configuration that you may have.

FAIRLINE’S FASTEST BOAT STORMS INTO
PALMA INTERNATIONAL BOAT SHOW
April 26^th – May 4^th 2008
Stand P7-10

Fairline Boats’ representatives in Mallorca - Fairline South Mallorca, Fairline North Mallorca and Fairline Cala D’Or - join up to show-case a stunning 10-boat line up of Fairlines at this year’s Palma International Boat Show, which runs from Saturday 26^th April until Sunday 4^th May along the Paseo Maritimo in Palma.  Among the boats on show will be the fastest Fairline in production, the award winning Fairline Targa 38 sports cruiser.   

On behalf of the three Mallorcan Fairline dealers, Bryan Jones, Marketing Manager for Fairline Boats welcomes the fastest Fairline to Palma, “The Targa 38 has been one of our fastest selling models since her launch in 2006 at which time she was capable of speeds of 36 knots.  In Mallorca, the interest in the model has been intense but now that she can effortlessly achieve 42 knots when powered by new Volvo Penta D6-370 EVC diesel engines, we are sure she will be a winner for any customers seeking a stylish, elegant sports cruiser.”

 Since her launch, the Targa 38 has received much professional accolade from specialist magazines throughout Europe and boat test reports constantly praise her contemporary design, robust sea-keeping qualities and elegance of style. 

Last year she won the Sportscruiser below 45ft category in the UK’s ‘Motor Boat of The Year Awards’ and ‘European Powerboat of the Year’ in the 30ft to 40ft category as judged by magazines from 10 European countries, including Boote in Germany and Yate in Spain.

Johnson 77 and Johnson 105:

European Premiere in Majorca

 Palma de Majorca, 7^th of April 2008 – The first two examples of the new models Johnson 77 and Johnson 105 have arrived in Palma de Majorca. The company Avantgarde Yachts, official distributors for Johnson Yachts on the European market, will present the two superyachts to a broader public and celebrate their official European premiere during the international boat show “Salón Náutico de Palma“ held in Majorca between the 26^th of April and the 4^th of May. The Johnson 105 will be the largest yacht displayed in show.  

With the Johnson 77 and 105 the Taiwanese shipyard Johnson, one of the few yards that only build yachts for its own proper brand, completes its actual range that started with the Johnson 87.  All three yachts have been designed by the renowned English naval architect Bill Dixon and combine European yachting design with the precision and experience of far east ship building tradition.  

The two superyachts that now arrived in Majorca are flybridge versions (also available as skylounge versions with a closed fly) and are displayed as follows: The Johnson 77 features four double cabins with en-suite bathrooms and, with it’s own separate entrance, crew quarters for 2 crew with it’s own bathroom. The Johnson 105 has four double cabins with en-suite bathrooms on the lower deck and totally separate crew quarters for four persons with two bathrooms on the lower deck. A fifth cabin – the spectacular master stateroom with fantastic views and a spacious bathroom – is situated on the foreship of the main deck.

 Prospective clients interested in a viewing are asked to contact directly with Avantgarde Yachts to make an appointment.

 The fourth model and new flagship of the Johnson range, the Johnson 125, is currently under preparation.
