The 80HT #007 features a full Kevlar hull and deck, complemented by carbon fibre components. This robust construction was specifically selected by the owner, who has also specified an exclusive lamination package and additional uni-directional fibers in high-load areas.
One notable engineering achievement is the removal of the central windshield pillar, providing an unobstructed view. The yacht will also feature a fully customized dashboard and instrumentation package with multiple back-up systems, as requested by the owner, who plans to operate the yacht personally.
Nuvolari Lenard, a prestigious Venice-based design studio known for their work on some of the world’s most luxurious megayachts, has been tasked with both the interior styling and exterior detailing of the 80HT #007. This collaboration marks a first for Otam, adding a unique touch to the project.
Additional features include a sliding sunroof integrated into the hardtop, a bespoke garage configured to house two jet skis, and extra-tall, pillar-free structural windows in the main deck saloon for enhanced natural light. The full-beam master suite will feature double windows, adding to the yacht’s luxurious feel.
Powered by twin MTU 2600hp engines coupled with Arneson drives, the 80HT #007 is expected to reach a top speed of 47 knots. The hull lines, designed by Umberto Tagliavini and Aldo Scorzoni Marine Design & Services, are aimed at optimizing performance.
Matteo Belardinelli, Otam’s sales and communication manager, emphasized the company’s commitment to bespoke design and smart engineering. “This owner wanted to build something truly different, and we are confident that we can not only meet but exceed his expectations.”
With the hull and deck lamination complete and special insulation components installed for extra-quiet onboard comfort, outfitting is now underway. Otam is on track for a timely delivery in March 2025.
