Italia Yachts 998 2027

The IY 9.98 NextGen is engineered for excellence on the racecourse and designed to impress under all sailing conditions. As the latest advancement in the Fuoriserie line, it combines lighter weight, increased stiffness, enhanced power, and cutting-edge technology to provide an unparalleled sailing experience where speed and control are perfectly balanced. This yacht boasts a construction technology that improves stiffness by 35%, reduces weight by 20%, and elevates performance by 17% compared to its standard counterpart. A masterpiece of Italian craftsmanship, it's tailored for those who aspire to lead rather than follow. While primarily a racing vessel, the NextGen does not skimp on comfort or sophisticated aesthetics. Its interior features lightweight composite materials with meticulous detailing, including floorboards, doors, and hatches crafted from advanced materials. The upholstery is made from Batyline, which is flame-retardant, eco-friendly, and ultra-light, ensuring both safety and sporty elegance. The yacht comes equipped with a regatta-style galley, a bathroom with a shower and WC, 220V/12V electrical systems, and an integrated audio system. At the core of the NextGen is its advanced technology; the hull and deck are constructed in a single infusion using recyclable vinylester resin, promoting structural integrity, reduced weight, and a smaller environmental footprint. The new lamination plan, developed by Kelly Design Studio, enhances stiffness and responsiveness in all sailing conditions. Internal structures such as stringers, bulkheads, and furniture are made from composite materials, improving torsional strength and lowering the center of gravity. With a final displacement of around 4000 kg, this yacht perfectly balances agility, stability, ease of handling, and uncompromised performance. Every aspect is meticulously designed for peak performance, featuring a standard sail plan with a carbon mast, optional full carbon standing rigging, and a 1500 mm bowsprit for an 8% increase in upwind and 20% increase in downwind sail area. The NextGen can be tailored for various racing needs, offering options like IRC and Offshore configurations, carbon standing rigging, an FBG system with fiber-optic sensors, and a Genesys chip for complete construction traceability. Collaborating closely with a racing team, every detail can be customized for optimal competition setup. Performance and Tech Upgrades include a standard carbon mast raised by 1.10 meters and an extended 1,500 mm bowsprit designed for powerful asymmetric spinnakers. The appendages feature revised keel geometry with approximately 150 kg more ballast in the lead bulb and a full-carbon rudder blade. Smart monitoring is achieved through built-in fiber-optic load sensors at high-stress points and a digital passport for tracking structural history. For lightweight accommodation, the yacht offers light composite bulkheads, minimalist floorboards, and eco-friendly Batyline upholstery. Cruising amenities feature a functional regatta galley, an enclosed marine head with shower and WC, plus an integrated audio system.
