ISA Yachts announces sale of second 65m Classic model

Italian yard ISA Yachts, a brand of Palumbo Superyachts, has sold the second unit in its Classic 65m series to a European buyer. The sale was conducted by Kristina Falkone of Aberton Yachts, with delivery scheduled for 2028.

This project will follow in the footsteps of the first hull, the 65.5-metre launched as Resilience, with Enrico Gobbi – Team for Design leading exterior and interior design. At 64.8 metres, the new build is slightly smaller than her predecessor but boasts a greater interior volume of 1,420GT.

Accommodation will be across eight crew cabins and six guest cabins, including an owner's suite – complete with double fold-out balcony – that will make full use of the yacht's 12-metre beam. Interior details are undisclosed, though the yard did tease "contemporary style furniture" and "clean lines" as its focus.

Model highlights include a large swimming pool on the main deck and an expansive beach club, with the latter housing a lounge, bar, showers, gym, sauna, massage room and a "welcome zone" for embarking and disembarking guests. 

Also worthy of note is the flydeck Jacuzzi and the new build's storage capacity, with two Jet Skis and two tenders supported by a hydraulic crane and sliding lateral system for hauling and launching.

"We deeply thank the owner and his team for choosing ISA Yachts’ 65-metre platform, a combination of careful design and most advanced technological solutions," said Giuseppe Palumbo, director at Palumbo Superyachts. "This superyacht joins the fleet of nine 40-80 metre ISA Yachts units under construction, as the world epitome of enduring Made in Italy excellence."

Powered by twin MTU engines, the project is expected to reach a top speed of 17 knots and a range of 5,500 nautical miles at 11 knots.

ISA Yachts recently celebrated the sale of its first Unica 45M Steel model, characterised by long-range cruising and a cascading, interconnected stern area.
