Some yachts have a lot of room while others seem to be very crowded. If you entertain on the yacht often you will want something that can accommodate a certain amount of people. Since you pay so much for your yacht you want to make sure that it has all the room you will need, whether it is to entertain a crowd or if it’s just the two of you. If you are looking for a larger yacht that is able to comfortably hold a crowd and is energy efficient then you will want the Magnum 100.
It is not due to be released until 2012, but it is already the most popular yacht that Magnum is offering. The Magnum 100 is popular because it is the largest yacht that Magnum has to offer. Alberto Mancini, an Italian designer is focusing more on more livable space at the cockpit. Alberto Mancini is a young designer and he knows what people are looking for.

This will allow for more horse power because nothing is weighing it down. Using these materials will save more than 20% of the weight compared to other models. If you don’t want to drive fast the Magnum 100 offers an electric engine that can be operated on slow speed so it runs quietly as well as smoke and fume free when you need it to. There won’t be exhaust fumes rising up as you sit in slow drive.
The interior uses florescent lighting to help save energy. There are four double staterooms, as well as a reception area and salon area with very nice crew cabins so you can enjoy yourself while you are on the yacht. The owner will be able to customize their yacht to suit their needs.
