aritimo’s M70 is an extremely capable
flybridge cruiser with the pedigree and
build to cross oceans safely.
This contemporary stunner offers relaxed
luxurious styling for easy living and understated
elegance throughout, but those smart lines
disguise ship-like systems within.
Long-range reserves of fuel and water plus
critical system redundancy will keep you secure
on any voyage, while high bulwarks and walk-
around decks offer big boat safety to everyone
aboard.

SCANIA ECONOMY
If genuine bluewater exploration is high on your
agenda, this is where the M70 really excels.
Maritimo's super-efficient shaft drives and hull
design are coupled in this instance to twin 900
horsepower Scanias to ensure class-leading fuel
consumption when you point that bow over the
horizon.
Maritimo founder Bill Barry-Cotter’s

preference for Scanias lies in their superior

efficiency at cruising revs and enviable 500-hour

servicing schedule.

Packing 6,300-litre fuel tanks in her hull,

this M70 can comfortably deliver 1,000 to

1,200 nautical mile range at around 10 knot

displacement speeds, but even sitting on a

leisurely 20 knots, this big cruiser will see almost

600 nautical miles from a tank between fills.

And when it comes time to park your pride

and joy at the dock, this boat has you covered,

despite her significant size and the windage that

comes with that towering flybridge.

The main upper helm is linked to two

additional stations (one upstairs and one on the

aft deck) and the skipper can also utilise a Yacht

Controller for effortless manoeuvring.

EASY ENTERTAINER

Once aboard, this M70 will immediately

captivate any new owner with the acres of space

on offer. Featuring four main cabins, including a

M70 really excels.”
