Jumbo Maritimo
The saloon is fully air-conditioned and offers 360? visibility thanks to large windows and the glass sliding doors to the cockpit. Views can be enjoyed from a stylish leather Natuzzi suite selected by the owner. The dark wood coffee table is a nice touch.
Sleeping quarters are accessed from a small stairway forward of the saloon. There is a single guest cabin to starboard. It has a cupboard big enough for two people to stand in. The porthole opens for fresh air and the deck hatch has retractable shade and fly screens. The laundry is forward of this cabin.
The amidships VIP guest cabin is accessed on the portside. It has a massive storage pit that you step down into. It even has drawers. The island queen-size bed is the centrepiece faced by a television. It has an ensuite big enough to walk around in, bathed in natural light from a porthole and a deck hatch. There is a shower, toilet and vanity.
The day head is forward and to starboard. It doubles as an ensuite for the forward cabin. The forward cabin has a queen-size island bed. There is heaps of storage and deck hatch for fresh air and natural light.
The below-deck master cabin has a king-size island bed with storage underneath. There are his and hers wardrobes, a desk and television. The ensuite is an interesting set-up and an example of the thought that went into the design throughout the boat. It spans from

port to starboard, with his and hers toilets?one on either side?and a sink each side also. The shower is dead centre, accessible from both sides.
The flybridge is 38ft long and has all the luxuries you would expect of that space. There is a three-seat helm station, which overlooks large screens displaying radar, GPS, engine systems and depth sounder information. This set-up is the owner's choice. The helm station was designed for skippers by Ross Willaton, Maritimo's sea-trial skipper. The large windows provide 360? visibility.
The flybridge is carpeted. There are two lounges, a bathroom, fridge and icemaker, liquor cabinet, storage for glasses, more general storage and a pop-up television.
The large sunroof is an excellent idea,
adding sounds and smells to whichever view you choose.
The flybridge has its own aft deck with docking controls on both sides and a large space to lean on the rail and enjoy watching the sun sink into a tropical bay.
We took the big Maritimo for a spin out front of the Gold Coast. The twin 1550hp Caterpillar C32s cruised nicely on 1700rpm for 23 knots, burning 150 l/h with the port engine and 145 with the starboard engine. According to Maritimo, if you stick to a laid-back troll of nine or 10 knots, the range of the vessel is approximately 1,500 nautical miles.
