Deck flares at the bow, to decrease the weight of the boat, keep the center of gravity low, promote the descent of water coming up to the deck, and decrease turbulence on the front sails: with these features, our curiosity about the new RM 1180 was really high, and as soon as we arrived at the Cannes Yachting Festival, we climbed aboard. Hosting us was Tommy Moscatelli of Yacht Synergy, Fora Marine’s exclusive dealer for Italy.
The detail of the flared broadside that makes the construction of the new RM 11.80 very intricate, since Marc Lombard’s choice to have a recessed deck obliges having the first redans in marine plywood and the last one in Vtr that mates with the sandwich deck to achieve the rounded shape. The bow is inverted, a choice that marries both aerodynamic and aesthetic reasons and fits into an overall look that is clearly sporty.
The hull is the typical angular one seen on boats geared to important performance at carrying gaits, the RM 1180 yes from the first tests, as the photos also show, has shown an aptitude for gliding and surfing with ease under gennaker.
The interiors are bright, in the spirit of modern design and with moderate use of wood both for aesthetic choice and weight saving.
