Visitors to the Cannes Yachting Festival had the opportunity to see in action the new Greenline 58 Fly Hybridthe flagship of the Greenline fleet, demonstrating that luxury and ecological responsibility can coexist. Thanks to its new-generation hybrid propulsion and carefully selected interiors, this yacht’s emissions are up to 40% lower than those of a standard diesel engine.
The Greenline 58 Fly Hybrid presents itself with the now emblematic lines of the Slovenian brand, but with the addition of a generous flybridge that gives the boat an extra dimension for cruising. Architect’s design Marco Casali has created an elegant, timeless silhouette that minimizes the appearance of the flybridge while maximizing usable space.
Exterior spaces of the Greenline 58 Fly Hybrid
In the Greenline 58 Fly Hybrid’s outdoor living area, flexibility is the watchword. In addition to a fully equipped outdoor cockpit, there’s room for an elegant bar, a dining table for six and an open deck for lounging or sitting. The solid three-bar railing at the stern and the glass balustrade at the bow ensure optimum safety.
The aft main deck offers an elegant and comfortable multifunctional space. Its focal point is a magnificent square dining table, with deep sofas on two sides, offering unobstructed ocean views. A short teak-clad staircase leads down to the bathing platform, another distinctive feature of the Greenline 58 Fly Hybrid. Here, the depth reaches almost 2 meters, enough to spread out deckchairs and chairs, creating an incomparable seaside atmosphere. Alternatively, hydraulic controls can be used to lower the platform into the sea. The comfortable padded seat recessed into the transom opens to reveal ample equipment storage, capable of accommodating a tender of up to 500 kg, although a lighter boat is recommended for performance reasons. Naturally, the Greenline 58 Fly Hybrid also features a bow lounge.
A bright and open saloon
Large, pillarless windows transform the interior of the Greenline 58 Fly Hybrid into a bright, convivial space in direct contact with the sea. The extra-large galley, equipped with refrigerator, freezer, induction hob and dishwasher, is located at the stern and can be completely opened up to the outside deck thanks to the glass door and tilting window.
One of Greenline’s distinguishing features is the space under the kitchen, which can be dedicated to a wide variety of functions. Some owners prefer to devote this space to food storage, while others choose to turn it into a laundry and technical area, and still others transform it into an independent cabin.
The materials chosen by Greenline Yachts and Marco Casali are in line with the shipyard’s philosophy of responsible sailing. They include fabrics made from recycled fibers, sustainable woods and recycled PET foam. What’s more, waste materials are recycled or used to generate heat. The Greenline 58 Fly Hybrid is offered with two interior color schemes that reflect different personalities: a cool atmosphere reminiscent of whites and light blues; and a warmer finish using more natural off-whites and beiges.
Spaces below deck on the Greenline 58 Fly Hybrid
The sleeping area is reached by descending a wide staircase to the lower deck, where a hall gives access to the three cabins. The most beautiful is obviously the owner’s suite, which occupies the entire width of the boat at mid-height. The hull’s generous windows let in natural light and offer a splendid view of the anchorage. In addition to the king-size bed, there’s a sofa, dressing table and walk-in wardrobe. Equally successful, the bathroom features designer fittings and elegant porcelain, contrasting with the warm wood finishes and refined curves of the joinery. The bathroom is a quiet, relaxing space, with separate shower cubicle and shower heads.
Forward is a spacious VIP double cabin, also with private bathroom. To the right, there’s a third flexible cabin that can be configured as a double for children or a double bed for friends, with private bathroom in both cases. This cabin can be converted into an office or dedicated TV room.
Hybrid propulsion
Greenline Yachts has always put eco-sustainability at the forefront, and the Greenline 58 Fly Hybrid is no exception, using the same super-efficient “superdislocating” hull design as the smallest boats in the range, delivering optimum performance at a range of speeds, from 6 knots cruising to 29 knots at full speed.
As a pioneer of the hybrid sector in yachting, Greenline Yachts has been perfecting its technology for over 15 years, and the latest implementation enables the Greenline 58 Fly Hybrid to offer an impressive 20 nautical miles of silent electric range at speeds of up to 6 knots. In the typical Greenline yacht duty cycle, the hybrid system reduces emissions by up to 40%.
The solar roof is equipped with a 4 kW system to power on-board services. Although it can also slightly increase the yacht’s range, its main advantage is to enable long days and nights at anchor without having to switch on a noisy generator. By combining Greenline’s high-quality lithium polymer batteries with solar generation of up to 20 kWh, it is possible to achieve up to three days at anchor without the need for a generator. A range that can be extended to infinity if air conditioning is not required.
“Our unique approach to responsible yachting allows owners to choose between speed when necessary and optimum efficiency over short distances. – explains Greenline general manager Vladimir Zinchenko – The Greenline 58 Fly Hybrid is an example of this concept, but it can also be found in all our other yachts. The philosophy of eco-responsible yachting has led us to significantly reduce waste and energy use on site, by eliminating paper marketing material and recycling as much as possible”.
