Australia’s Maritimo Yachts used the Palm Beach International Boat Show as the occasion for the North American premiere of the Maritimo M600 Offshore Flybridge Motor Yacht.

The M600 has straight shafts at an 8-degree angle, coupled to five-blade nibral propellers. Standard engines are twin 800-horsepower Volvo Penta D13s. Maritimo says it chose the propulsion setup with an eye toward engineering simplicity for offshore cruising.

In addition to helping with efficiency, Maritimo says, this setup limits the yacht’s draft to 4 feet, 10 inches, which allows for exploring in more remote anchorages. The 1,200-gallon fuel capacity also was chosen with an eye toward long-distance cruising and offshore stability. The setup includes three tanks that lower the M600’s center of gravity: two wing tanks and a 607-gallon main tank on the keel line. Refueling can be done through a single filler on either side of the yacht.

The M600 has an upper cockpit and adventure deck with seating, dining, a barbecue grill, a sink and refrigeration.

Up top, the flybridge balcony spans about 120 square feet with a station aft for docking or for use during offshore fishing. The flybridge hardtop has a rear awning with optional clear and roll-up sections for use in various types of weather. With the flybridge doors open to the skylounge on nice days, the total space for relaxation is nearly 250 square feet.

On what Maritimo calls the upper cockpit and adventure deck, there’s more protected seating, along with dining, a barbecue grill, a sink and refrigeration for outdoor cooking. Side decks lead forward from here to the anchor well, with significant bulwarks for safety at sea.

Inside, the layout includes three staterooms and two heads. One of the guest staterooms has a convertible setup for single or double berth use. The master stateroom is amidships with a king-size berth and hullside windows that provide wide views of the outdoors.

“We’re really excited to showcase the M600 to our North American customers,” Keith Teynor, Maritimo’s managing partner for the Americas, stated in a press release. “It really showcases what makes every Maritimo so special from the accommodations, fit and finish, volume and seakeeping ability.”
