A new concept of cruising at sea, featuring comfortable and innovative living spaces. Prestige F5.7 is this and much more: the latest creation from Prestige Yachts combines an inviting atmosphere designed for the pleasure of being together and entertaining without compromise and with maximum privacy, with convivial spaces closely connected to the water, inviting you to come aboard anytime and anywhere. Born and shaped with great ambition, the F5.7 is a unique yacht on the market, developed to best meet the new expectations and aspirations of high-level boating enthusiasts. It is the second model of the new F-Line generation, representing a significant step in terms of elegance and sophistication. Every design choice, from the shape of the hull to every detail of the fittings and finishes, is primarily driven by the expression of a certain idea of life on board for greater well-being, harmony, and serenity.
“The Prestige F5.7 continues the evolution of the brand in its new F-Line generation, offering a new interpretation of the current market trends and customer expectations – said Prestige Vice President Erwin Bamps – The new model positions itself within the core of the brand, the 40 to 70-foot motor yacht segment, demonstrating the constant innovative approach of Prestige”.
The Prestige F5.7 will make her world premiere at the Cannes Yachting Festival from September 10 to 15, 2024, on display alongside the M8, F4.9, and X60.
Lines that reflect the waves
Designed with fluid, elegant exterior lines, the new Prestige F5.7 features curves inspired by the movement of water – a smooth and powerful look. The stylish plaques on both sides extend the large hull windows, a distinctive feature of the new F-Line generation; while the deep V- hull, designed by Michael Peters, allows this majestic 17-meter yacht to navigate the sea and ride the waves with comfort and safety. As for the bow, it is slightly rounded to improve stability.
Designed to offer an unprecedented onboard living experience, the Prestige F5.7’s design reveals dynamic exterior living spaces that also contribute to creating well-ventilated interior spaces.
“This new F5.7 perfectly incarnates our desire to anticipate the expectations and needs of our customers, by placing ever-more innovative products on the market – explains Prestige Product Marketing Manager Clémence Cessou – The deep V-shaped hull offers real cruising comfort, while the ocean-view galley – the heart of life on board – opens onto the cockpit in an original way, maximising the view of the ocean. Intelligently designed, the owner’s suite on the semi-main deck offers all the space and comforts of a much larger yacht, specifically designed to push boundaries and fully open to the sea, for a more inviting atmosphere and greater privacy and comfort. In short, the new F5.7 offers a stunning onboard experience, comparable to that of a superyacht”.
A comfortable conviviality-oriented flybridge
Covered by an elegant hardtop with an opening roof, the flybridge of the Prestige F5.7 is the perfect place to gather, offering a helm station with a seat for a co-pilot to share the joy of cruising. Nearby, the immense and comfortable sunbathing area invites you to dream or converse.
The flybridge of the Prestige F5.7 is equipped with a bar and a well-appointed kitchen, opening onto elegant C-shaped benches and a table that can accommodate six people. A true terrace with an ocean view, it is the ideal place to savor moments together while enjoying the panoramic scenery.
The living spaces of the Prestige F5.7
From dawn to dusk, Prestige F5.7 offers as many living spaces as there are moments to share. One of its strengths is the easy access to the sea through two safe passages, portside and starboard, with only two steps down to the vast aft platform, designed for diving in, cooling off, or simply chatting by the water. At the bow, a different atmosphere can be felt, with semicircular benches around a discreet table and a sunbathing area with an adjustable backrest for moments of pure relaxation: a true lounge facing the sea that can transform in an instant. Easily accessible from wide and secure gangways, it is the ideal place to enjoy the sea, whether at anchor or sailing, to relax, read, daydream, or simply gaze at the horizon.
At the stern of the Prestige F5.7, a spacious and inviting cockpit naturally becomes the central gathering spot, with facing benches and a table for conversation, enjoying a cocktail while watching the sunset, or sharing a meal with friends. The flow on board is smooth, and the abundant storage space makes the living area functional and pleasant. Surrounded by the sea, caressed by the breeze, and sheltered from the sun by an elegant canvas sunshade, the cockpit can be transformed into a private space, perfectly protected from the elements.
Finally, the OceanView galley is the true meeting point between interior and exterior, embodying the emphasis on balancing the pleasures of entertaining with ease of movement on board, which are the hallmarks of the Prestige F5.7. This fully-equipped galley is designed to ensure a constant connection with both nature and guests. Completing the living area is the spacious indoor salon, with a large C-shaped sofa where everyone on board can enjoy a spectacular view of the ocean in all its vastness. The entire living area is flooded with natural light, thanks to a wide and tall sliding glass door that provides access to the deck and an exceptional panoramic view. The visibility extends aft through the kitchen windows and forward through the windshield. This nearly uninterrupted 360° view of the sea ensures an immersive experience and moments of contemplation.
As for the sleeping zone of the Prestige F5.7, accessible from the main deck, a private entrance allows owners to easily and discreetly enter their cabin. Intelligently located on a semi-main deck, the forward master suite ensures perfect peace both at sea, away from the engine room, and at anchor in port, away from dockside activities. The generous living space with flush floors, high ceilings, natural light through the hull windows, and the soft glow of the curved LED lines create a refined and enveloping atmosphere in the master suite. High-quality materials, such as wood and fabrics in natural tones, contribute to its luxurious charm. With a king-size berth, an en-suite bathroom with a separate shower and double sink, a vanity, and a large walk-in closet, this suite offers absolute comfort and convenience, combining privacy with serenity.
Equally comfortable are the guest accommodations on the Prestige F5.7. The magnificent VIP cabin features the same refined design as the master suite and also offers a sea view, a comfortable queen-size berth, a walk-in closet, and a private bathroom. The unique diagonal orientation of the berth provides a sense of spaciousness and ease of movement. Lastly, a third cabin has two single berths and a separate bathroom. The ample aft storage space can be optionally converted into a well-equipped skipper’s cabin with separate access.
Prestige F5.7: a high-tech yacht
With the new F-Line generation, Prestige aims to meet the needs of experienced high-level cruisers by using the latest technological innovations. The onboard monitoring and assistance system, Seanapps, is designed to enhance safety and peace of mind. This application allows for easy monitoring of onboard equipment and cruising data, simplifying maintenance and ensuring yacht safety during cruises. Additionally, all onboard functions, from air conditioning to the bilge pump, can be monitored and controlled via the Ship Control online interface. Simple and user-friendly, Ship Control functions like an onboard computer, accessible from a smartphone or tablet. The joystick and Volvo IPS transmission system, supported by Garmin Surround View, allow for surprisingly easy docking maneuvers. Entering the port or making long passages leaves no room for doubt or uncertainty, enabling a calm and confident cruising experience.
