Rowan from TMG Yachts had the pleasure of talking with Erwin Bamps, Vice President of PRESTIGE Yachts about the NEW PRESTIGE F5.7 features. In this interview, they explored the exciting innovations of the new PRESTIGE F5.7 model.

Erwin Bamps has been the brand director for PRESTIGE for six years, during which he has overseen significant growth and innovation. He shares, “It’s been quite an exciting ride. We’ve expanded geographically, broadened our product range, and continuously improved our attention to detail.” The PRESTIGE F5.7 represents a pivotal moment in this journey, following the successful launch of the F4.9.

Key Features

The PRESTIGE F5.7 marks the second model in the third generation of the F line, following the successful F4.9. Bamps emphasized that this model features striking designs and improved functionality, paving the way for future models in the F line.

Bold and Dynamic Exterior
The F5.7 is immediately recognizable by its bold lines, making a striking visual statement. Beyond its aesthetic appeal, the exterior design enhances mobility around the yacht, featuring thoughtfully placed stairs that seamlessly connect the swim platform and cockpit, ensuring easy access for everyone on board.

Innovative Layout
One of the standout features is the vis-à-vis seating arrangement in the cockpit, fostering an engaging environment for conversation and connection with the surroundings. Guests can enjoy a clear view of the water, ensuring that no one has their back to the stunning scenery.

Ocean View Galley
The galley is positioned as the centrepiece of life onboard, allowing those preparing meals or drinks to remain part of the conversation. This innovative layout enhances the social experience, making it a perfect gathering spot for family and friends.

Comfortable Sleeping Arrangements
The PRESTIGE F5.7 features a master suite in the bow and a VIP cabin midships, both designed for maximum comfort and privacy. The layout ensures that guests enjoy a restful stay, with thoughtful features such as a separation from the engine room for added tranquillity.

Entertaining Spaces
With ample room for entertaining, from the cockpit to the swim platform, the F5.7 offers multiple zones for relaxation and socializing. The flybridge provides an exceptional outdoor terrace, perfect for enjoying the view and fresh air.

Tailored for the Australian Market
Rowan points out the features that will particularly resonate with Australian buyers. “The central galley invites social interaction, and we love our outdoor spaces,” he notes, adding that the flybridge is ideal for navigating Australia’s beautiful waterways. Erwin acknowledges this, stating, “We have taken so much feedback from our clients in Australia, and we’ve tried to incorporate that into this new generation of product.”

A Personal Favorite: Connectivity and Light

When asked about his favorite feature, Erwin shares, “What I love about it is that even when you’re inside, you never feel like you’re inside.” The F5.7 offers a 360-degree view of the exterior, creating a bright and open atmosphere. Additionally, the large side access door allows for natural ventilation, further enhancing the onboard experience.

Ideal for Families and Entertaining
The F5.7‘s three-cabin, three-bathroom layout makes it ideal for families. “We believe that people will have an excellent time on board with a little bit more privacy or a higher service level,” Erwin explains. The option for a crew cabin adds flexibility for those seeking enhanced service during their voyages.

Looking Ahead: The Future of PRESTIGE

Erwin is optimistic about the future of PRESTIGE Yachts. He reveals plans for expanding their F-line, stating, “There’s going to be more models in that new lineup, replacing the existing products.” Additionally, PRESTIGE is venturing into the multi-hull market with new offerings that will further solidify their leadership in the luxury yacht segment.
