A Falcon Made to Measure
The 115 is the flagship of this Italian yacht builder and as such, makes an interesting offer since it represents the company’s entry into the range of yachts of more than 100 feet in length, even though they already have a model exactly 100 feet long. Another of the yacht’s strengths is the personalization of all of its components, which is something that Falcon Yachts offers to distinguished clients tempted by its beauty.
On the outside, the lines, and contours and in general the poise of the yacht denote strength and aggressiveness without putting aside elegance and practicality. Entertainment and comfort have also not been forgotten; areas for the delight and enjoyment of simple pleasures, such as the sundeck on the bow, which is reached from the main deck by a small stairway. This is a place for people who like to relax as well as enjoying the panorama. Towards the center of the vessel, there is a flybridge that gives a distinct view both of the yacht itself and its surroundings. Here passengers can enjoy pleasant moments of togetherness, as well as enjoying the power and control of the yacht under the due supervision of the Captain.
Moving inside, it is clear that this vessel can be adapted to the needs of each client because the yacht in question belongs to a Falcon client and its entire interior can be adapted, from the materials used to the distribution. The yacht builder was kind enough to send me the original plans of two of the yachts it has built, each a different version of four and five cabins. Taking the five-cabin version as a base, both the owner’s and the VIP guests' cabins are furnished with the best of the best, from the woods and materials used for the finish through to the equipment on the communal rooms including an LCD TV and hi-fi stereo equipment, etc.). Another important point is that each cabin has its own bathroom, which is a comfort normally reserved for larger vessels.
Even the finish of the crew’s area is impeccable: marble and luxury finishes of the constant factor of this beautiful yacht. The galley is also equipped with the newest on the market; the electro-domestic equipment is supplied by the well-known German manufacturer Miele, which is a guarantee of quality.
Falcon have concern themselves about every detail including the flybridge, which has a refrigerator, icemaker and sink. The yacht also has a crane to maneuver the water toys such as launches, jet skis or wet bikes. It is a yacht that will more and more make us cast off in order not to see land for as long as possible.
