This Island Gypsy 46 with the two-cabin layout is
available for immediate delivery. It suits cruising families
seeking an economical and feature-filled motor yacht.
At 46ft (14m) it’s the same LOA as the first two Newport
models, but the space below decks has been expertly
optimised to accommodate a second cabin, with large
ensuite in common, including separate shower, toilet
and vanity.
The second cabin is lockable with full-head room and
plenty of storage. The galley and saloon are designed
for socialising, and feature large Corian benchtops, twin
140L refrigerators/freezers, overhead cabinetry, pantry,
convection microwave and two-burner electric hotplate.
The cockpit features two tables that can convert to one
large dining table, and banquette seating for up to six
people, and an additional four on the opposite side –
great for entertaining friends and family, and cruising the
east coast.
Along with a hot and cold shower on the transom, the
lazarette comprises insulated storage to fit refrigerator
plates or Waeco portable refrigeration, fenders, ropes,
and other gear.
Powered by a 550hp Cummins diesel engine and
Onan generator, coupled to a Twin Disc 2.1 gearbox
and running through the new technology “Python
drive” system which has been especially designed for
this range of boats, the new model requires minimal
maintenance and delivers sensational performance of
20+ knots, along with class-leading fuel economy.
The “python drive” system is next to silent and low
vibration compared to a standard boat this size. The
engine room is seriously spacious, carpeted throughout
and with generous head room.
For ease of access for the tender and watersports there
is also a hi-lo hydraulic swim platform.
“After more than 30 years in the boating business, we
have analysed the servicing cost of boats,” said Brett
Flanagan, Director at Island Gypsy.
“Boating should be low maintenance and pleasurable.
With Island Gypsy, we have sought to minimise the cost
of ownership and make boating a breeze.”
