The
Maiorcan 17 M is a splendid example of cruising harmony with high
technology performance. The hull represents the latest in Naval
Architecture and has been thoroughly tank tested. The large double
chines give efficiency over a range of speeds from 14 knots long
range cruise to 30 knots sprint speed, and unparalleled
seaworthiness, all with maximum fuel economy. The practical layout
is designed for all weather cruising.
The
command bridge has a spacious sun pad for lounging protected from
the wind, extending from the bench seat for the upper helm. Full
controls and throttles are provided. Down the steps is the sun
deck with ample entertaining space and a bench seat with stowage
under. Refreshments are as close as the wet bar. High railings
with tinted plexiglass panels provide safety and protection from
the wind without interfering with the view. Down the steps aft is
the jacuzzi hot tub and swim platform for easy access to the
water. Entrance to the main lounge is from the sun deck down
through the companionway. The lounge is spacious thanks to the
generous beam, and well appointed with silk sculptured rugs.
Directly to port is the entertainment center with an L shaped
settee across the way. Up one step is the dinette with excellent
visibility through the forward windshield. The main helm has a
proper chart table and chart stowage with complete electronics
panel. A very well equipped galley is a few steps down with all
the conveniences a gourmet chef could ask for, microwave,
dishwasher, eye level ovens, trash compactor, range top with
barbecue, and large fridge with freezer.
There
is a choice of three large cabins, each with their own hanging
lockers. The master stateroom aft, is full width and has his and
her night tables and dressers on each side of a queen size bed.
There is a walk in closet and private w.c. with full size bath
tub. The mid stateroom has upper and lower single berths. The
forward cabin has a queen size bed with his and hers night tables
on each side. The forward w.c. has a separate shower and access
from either the forward cabin or hallway.
The
engine room is very business like and has a work bench. All
systems are laid out to commercial standards and are arranged into
systems of priority. Twin diesels and twin generators as well as a
shore power system are all professionally organized.
Euro-American
styling, enduring quality, an investment to last a lifetime. This
is only one of a long line of quality motoryachts to come. Not to
be compared quickly with competitors, this is a boat that bears up
under scrutiny.
