The family business worked on the design together with the M2 Atelier from Milan. The steel-aluminium displacement vessel is to be accelerated to 17 knots by two Caterpillar diesel engines, each with an output of 1825 kilowatts. At a speed of twelve knots, the Codecasa engineers predict an operating radius of 5000 nautical miles. The layout provides for two owner's suites and four guest cabins as well as a five by two metre pool on the sundeck. The 950 tonne displacement and LY3 and RINA-certified format sleeps up to 16 crew members.
"Regina d'Italia" (Queen of Italy) was the name of a 51-metre-long Codecasa. As the Italian daily newspaper "La Nazione" reports, it is once again the private yacht of Stefano Dolce and Domenico Gabbana. The interior, which the Dolce & Gabbana founders will be enjoying to the full from summer 2019, is likely to be correspondingly style-conscious. Although the two still work together as fashion designers, they have been going their separate ways in their private lives since 2003.
