Great Coaster

The Portofino 53 is an excellent example of what a company can achieve when it sets itself a goal in which quality is not the exception but the rule and everything is planned to perfection. It is always one step ahead of the problems that may arise; nothing has been overlooked or left to chance. The hull is a cumulus of knowledge of all the people who have dedicated part of the lives to developing­ a yacht of this quality.

With the undisputable influence of the “Predator” range, it combines its features without sacrificing its own personality and style. This vessel combines ergonomics, practicality, beauty and power that let us enjoy all the facets of a coastal trip, whether a diving expedition or a private outdoor party. The Portofino 53 offers the chance to enjoy it as if it were designed exclusively for this purpose.

 

 

On the exterior, there is ample, inviting and comfortable­ space towards the bow and beyond the windshield, a comfortable sunbathing area. Further aft, there is the bridge located to starboard and to port, a wet bar, which has an icemaker and to starboard, a table large enough to sit eight comfortably. Towards the stern, there is another comfortable sunbathing area for three bathers.

Its profile is completely sporting and is notable from a distance. Here we have two options: one totally outdoor with a canvas cover and the other of a rigid roof that slides aft mechanically to cover the passengers seated at the table and flooding the control center with sunlight.

 

 

Between the wet bar and the bridge, there is the access to the lower deck, which has three cabins, the galley and an interior table. The galley is perfectly equipped with a refrigerator, microwave/electric oven and cupboard space. Opposite the galley, to starboard, there is an open sofa at an angle to a fan-shaped table and a mobile bench.

The cabins are distributed around the communal areas. The main cabin has a double bed with clothes and oddment storage space in the lower part. It has a bathroom to port with generous­ proportions and a closet to starboard. Aft of the galley, there is another cabin with twin beds and a bathroom and on the other side, there is a cabin with single beds, which can be used by guests or crew.
