Flybridge Boats: A Complete Guide

Dec 15, 2023

less than a min

Flybridge boats, also known as flybridge yachts stand as a testament to the evolution of luxury boating. Combining functionality with opulence, these vessels offer more than just a boating experience; they are a symbol of maritime innovation and design excellence.

The Evolution of Flybridge Boats

Flybridge boats have their roots in the early 20th century, originating from military-grade vessels. They served as additional control stations over the wheelhouse, providing a strategic vantage point. This design was adopted and refined by luxury yacht builders , who transformed these utilitarian spaces into hubs of comfort and elegance. Modern flybridge yachts are distinguished by their elevated helm, sitting, and lounge areas, which provide panoramic views and a unique connection to the sea. This evolution from practicality to luxury symbolises the yachting industry's growth and the increasing demand for sophisticated maritime experiences.

Design and Aesthetics

The design of flybridge boats is a careful balance between aesthetic appeal and functional excellence. On smaller vessels, flybridges are often fully enclosed, offering protection and comfort in various weather conditions. For larger yachts, the flybridge becomes an expansive open-air lounge, equipped with state-of-the-art navigation systems, plush seating, and bespoke amenities. These spaces are thoughtfully designed to maximise both the usability of the area and the aesthetic appeal, often featuring customizable options to reflect the owner's personal style and preferences.

Unparalleled Features and Benefits

Enhanced Visibility and Control : The primary advantage of a flybridge is the exceptional visibility it provides. Situated at the highest point on the yacht, it offers an unobstructed 360-degree view, essential for navigation and docking. This elevated position allows captains to manoeuvre the yacht with precision, even in challenging conditions.

Social and Leisure Hub : The flybridge serves as a social epicentre on the yacht. It's typically furnished with luxurious seating, entertainment systems, wet bars, and sometimes even features like jacuzzis. This space is designed for relaxation and socialising, offering an unrivalled setting for guests to enjoy the journey together.

Ideal for Sunbathing and Recreation : The flybridge's elevated position is perfect for sunbathing and enjoying the sea breeze. It provides a serene spot for guests to unwind, often equipped with sun loungers and shade options. The design often incorporates elements that facilitate intimate gatherings, making it an ideal space for hosting parties or enjoying peaceful solitude.

Considerations and Trade-Offs

Owning a flybridge comes with its set of considerations:

Accessibility and Space : Accessing the flybridge typically requires climbing stairs or a ladder, which might be challenging for some individuals. This setup can also impact the layout of the main deck, sometimes reducing the available space.

Weather and Stability : Flybridges offer an exceptional experience on clear days, but their elevated position can be less advantageous in rough weather, affecting stability and comfort.

Cost and Maintenance : The addition of a flybridge can increase both the initial investment and the resale value of the yacht. However, it also entails additional costs for maintaining navigation equipment and other controls on both the main and upper helm stations.

Storage and Navigation Limitations : The increased height of the yacht due to the flybridge might limit access to certain waterways and increase storage fees, especially in dry-stack marinas.

Their evolution from practical military use to symbols of luxury and innovation underscores the dynamic nature of the yachting industry and its constant pursuit of excellence.

Description

Yachts with flybridges have continued to be among the most popular motor yachts built and purchased in the last several decades. Particularly in warmer clients, flybridge yachts have a lot of advantages for boat owners that want to cruise from high up and outdoors. Because this space becomes the entertainment focal point due to the views that a flybridge offers, manufacturers have begun to make longer and wider bridges with lots of usable space. Many luxury motor yachts now have flybridges with lots of comfortable seating, a wet-bar that can include a fridge, ice maker, and grill, televisions, dining tables, and even jacuuzi's on the larger yachts. Many of these flybridge yachts also have hardtops providing shade from the summer sun and protection from the elements.

The upper helm on a flybridge is really the defining characteristic of a flybridge yacht. Whether running a flybridge convertible sportfish to find schooling tuna or cruising to a destination on your motor yacht, driving from the helm on a flybridge is an amazing experience. Major yacht brands like Azimut , Princess , Sunseeker , Ferretti , Sea Ray , Prestige, and others have continued to perfect the flybridge yacht and it has become the most popular of all models in each brand. Choosing a smaller sportbridge like the Princess S60 or a larger flybridge like the Azimut 80 can depend on factors like how the owner plans to use the boat and of course, budget.
