Cruising in comfort

Yonca shipyard has released images of the ‘beguiling’ new Mishi 88, a 27-metre cruising superyacht designed to appeal to owners with a sailing or motoring background.

Mishi Yachts says the philosophy behind the Mishi 88 is to maximise cockpit space with comfortable seating for 12, in deep sofas around extending tables.

The tables can be lowered to transform the sofas for lounging beneath the hard top. In total, the cockpit offers 35 square metres of living space.

Sailing functions are concentrated farther aft, where helm pedestals give access to push-button sail controls and an overview of the boat’s systems on 12-inch displays. Four electric sheet winches are positioned on a low coaming, clear of the cockpit social area. The main sheet is fastened to the hard top to keep it out of the way.

Each deck area on Mishi 88 has been developed with entertaining in mind. Once at anchor, the foredeck has been conceived as a relaxation area.
