The blossoming masterpiece
The Moonflower 72 retains all the key features of modern yet timeless design, onboard liveability and maximum connection with the marine environment. A project in collaboration with Nauta Design, to be delivered in 2025.
“The exterior design is based on the holistic and balanced combination of style and comfort with pure, elegant lines and a harmonious connection between exterior and interior.”
Moonflower 72 is a collaborative project between Nauta Design and Wider yachts, an innovative superyacht that retains all the key features of modern yet timeless design, onboard liveability and maximum connection with the marine environment.
The exterior styling reflects Nauta’s trademark preference for clean, uncluttered design without fussy or superfluous detailing. Visual lightness, seamless outdoor/indoor connections, predominantly horizontal lines and the extensive use of glass, highlight the balanced proportions, while the chamfered sheer line amidships adds a dynamic aspect to the displacement hull.
The Moonflower 72 will be equipped with the Wider’s latest generation hybrid technology comprising two variable-speed generators supplied by MAN Energy Solutions of 1.860 kW each that, in combination with a sodium nickel battery bank of approximately 1 MW/h from FZSoNick, give the chance to produce energy always at the lowest point of consumption, reducing the CO2 emission of about 20%.
Hybrid Powertrain
The Moonflower 72 will be equipped with the Wider’s latest generation hybrid propulsion system comprising two variable-speed generators supplied by MAN Energy Solutions of 1.860 kW each that,in combination with a sodium nickel battery bank of approximately 1 MW/h from FZSoNick, give the chance to produce energy always at the lowest point of consumption, reducing the CO2 emission of about 20%.
The endothermic engines are HVO (Hydrotreated Vegetable Oil) and Methanol ready in order to follow the WIDER net zero way. Moreover, the energy dissipated in the form of heat from the electric propulsion system will be recycled for all the hot-water uses on board and the operation of the onboard amenities has been optimized to ensure maximum efficiency.
“There are no fussy or superfluous details that might interrupt the close relationship with nature and the marine environment.”
