The New PRESTIGE F5.7: Third-Generation Luxury and Innovation
The PRESTIGE F5.7 represents the latest evolution in the third generation of PRESTIGE’s F-Line, a range known for combining elegance, performance, and cutting-edge technology in flybridge motor yachts. Building on the innovations and improvements of its predecessors, the F5.7 takes luxury cruising to new heights with a focus on comfort, functionality, and design excellence. This yacht is crafted for both seasoned mariners and those looking to enjoy a premium boating experience. The F5.7 offers the perfect balance of advanced features and modern aesthetics, setting a new benchmark for the F-Line. Let’s dive into some of the standout features that make this yacht an exceptional choice.
Hydraulic Swim Platform: A Gateway to the Ocean
The PRESTIGE F5.7 greets you with an expansive hydraulic swim platform at the stern, designed for easy water access and perfect for carrying a tender up to 350 kilograms. Integrated into the platform are innovative stairs, providing a smooth transition from the water to the rear cockpit. This feature enhances both practicality and style, allowing guests to enjoy the ocean seamlessly, whether for water sports or simply lounging near the water’s edge.
Innovative Cockpit Design: A Social Haven
As you step into the rear cockpit, you’re greeted by a thoughtfully designed vis-à-vis sofa, encouraging face-to-face interaction while offering stunning panoramic views of the ocean. The entire area is designed to be an inviting social hub, with a teak dining table that can comfortably seat six. An integrated privacy screen discreetly hidden in the roof can be deployed when docked, or to shield guests from the afternoon sun, adding an element of comfort and convenience to this luxurious outdoor space.
Ocean View Galley: Open-Plan Entertaining
Inside the PRESTIGE F5.7, the well-appointed open-plan galley is a standout feature, perfectly situated between the cockpit and the main saloon. With an unobstructed ocean view and direct access to the outside, the galley is designed for seamless entertaining. Equipped with a three-burner induction cooktop, an oven, large refrigerator, and ample storage, this area ensures that the chef remains part of the conversation while preparing meals. The use of Corian countertops and elegant finishes add a touch of sophistication to this well-equipped culinary space.
Spacious Saloon: Luxury and Comfort Combined
Moving further inside, the saloon boasts expansive windows, side door access, and comfortable seating for up to 10 people. Designed with soft leather furnishings and indirect lighting, the space feels both luxurious and welcoming. The floor-to-ceiling windows create a terrace-on-the-sea effect typically only seen on much larger vessels, enhancing the sense of openness and connection to the water. The helm seat cleverly converts to expand the lounging area, while a discreet TV offers entertainment options for guests. Whether relaxing with friends or enjoying a family movie night, the saloon’s design prioritizes comfort without sacrificing style.
Master Suite: A Private Retreat
The master cabin, positioned forward of the boat, is a true private sanctuary. Featuring a full-beam layout, large windows, skylights, and a king-size bed, this space is bathed in natural light, creating a serene and spacious atmosphere. The tasteful decor, complete with soft furnishings and high-end timber finishes, elevates the luxury experience. The master suite also includes an ensuite bathroom with dual vanities, a large shower, and Corian finishes, ensuring the utmost in comfort and privacy.
VIP and Guest Cabins: Sophistication at Every Turn
The PRESTIGE F5.7 offers additional accommodation in the form of a VIP cabin and a twin guest cabin. The VIP cabin, with its walk-around queen-size bed and ensuite bathroom, is as spacious and well-appointed as many master suites on other yachts. The twin cabin, while smaller, provides comfortable sleeping arrangements for additional guests or children. Both cabins continue the theme of luxury, with ample storage, natural light, and elegant finishes throughout.
The Stunning Bow: Best in class
The bow of the PRESTIGE F5.7 is truly a standout feature, offering one of the most inviting lounging areas you’ll find on any yacht of its size. This space is designed for relaxation, with three plush lounges, two of which feature retractable backrests for customizable comfort. Whether you’re enjoying sunset drinks, snacking with friends, or simply soaking up the views, this bow is the perfect spot. A small table is conveniently placed for added functionality, and for protection from Australia’s harsh sun, a Euro awning can be quickly set up using four lightweight carbon poles. As the day turns to night, discreet pop-up lighting enhances the ambiance, making this a great space to relax after dark. The bow can comfortably seat up to six people, making it the ultimate social hub that seamlessly blends comfort and elegance, perfectly complementing the rest of the yacht.
Flybridge: The Best Seat in the House
The flybridge on the PRESTIGE F5.7 is designed for socializing, relaxing, and enjoying unparalleled views of the surrounding seascape. Multiple lounging areas, including a forward-facing sunpad and a dining area that seats up to 10 people, make the flybridge a versatile space for entertaining. A retractable sky roof adds natural light and ventilation, while a fully equipped wet bar with a grill and refrigeration ensures that drinks and meals are always within reach. At the helm, twin ergonomic seats and advanced navigation systems allow for comfortable and confident handling, whether cruising or docking.
Advanced Docking and Maneuvering Systems
For a yacht of this size, ease of maneuvering is crucial. The PRESTIGE F5.7 features the Volvo joystick docking system, which provides precise control during docking, along with bow and stern thrusters for added stability. Three docking stations—one at the helm, one on the flybridge, and a stern docking area—give the operator full control from any position. This intuitive system, combined with the boat’s sleek design, makes the PRESTIGE F5.7 a dream to navigate, even for owner-operators.
Power and Performance
Underneath its sleek exterior, the PRESTIGE F5.7 is powered by twin Volvo D8 engines, each providing 600 horsepower. These engines offer a perfect balance of power and fuel efficiency, ensuring a smooth cruising experience at 23 knots, with a top speed of 27 knots. With a fuel capacity of 2,200 liters, the yacht is built for long-range cruising, making it ideal for exploring coastlines or embarking on extended voyages.
Engine Room: Engineering Excellence
The engine room of the PRESTIGE F5.7 is a testament to the attention to detail that defines this yacht. Full access around both VOLVO IPS D8 engines ensures easy maintenance, while a SeaKeeper gyro stabilizer guarantees stability, even in choppy waters. The air conditioning system and fuel filters are easily accessible, and thoughtful features like a manual fuel gauge provide an extra layer of security.
The PRESTIGE F5.7 is designed with versatility and functionality, making it ideal for Australia’s diverse marine environments. Whether you’re cruising Sydney Harbour, exploring the Whitsundays, or embarking on extended voyages along the East or West Coast of Australia, this yacht is built to perform. With ample space for family and friends, luxurious lounging areas, and advanced maneuvering systems, the F5.7 allows you to cruise in comfort and confidence. It’s perfect for Australian conditions, where outdoor entertaining and a strong connection with the ocean are key. As big as your imagination allows, the PRESTIGE F5.7 offers limitless possibilities for adventure.
