2600 Fly - The Owner Operator & Charter Yacht

Couach, the made-to-measure yacht constructor celebrates the success of its new 30, 33 and 37 metre models, and offers them a 26 metre little sister of remarkable quality. Following the study carried out among its clients, Couach unveils its new model and offers an entirely new concept: the Owner Operator & Charter Yacht. A versatile yacht, equally adapted for navigation with out a crew as for professional charter usage.

Owner Operator Concept
There is nothing more normal than wanting independence on your boat. You are a boat owner with a passion for sailing? You want to sail your boat yourself, t ake f amily or friends on holiday; venture out on to the open seas far from the beaten tracks with no fear for your safet y? The 2600 FLY is for you. With a reduced wind factor and 2 bow thrusters, manoeuvrability is tantamountto simplicit y. Unequalled autonomy for a yacht of this size, with an automatic system developed on all Couach yachts controlling each of the boats functions with a single touch screen. All the qualities and comforts of a Couach Super -Yacht, brought together in one 26 metre boat .

Charter usage
Hire out your boat so it can sail all year round in stead of being docked in the port? Gain on your investment? Couach recognises these legitimate ambitions and offers you appropriate solutions. The 2600 FLY has been designed to reconcile the Owner Operator concept with professional Charter usage. 4 cabins each with the very best equipment , in dependent bathroom and toilets, welcome 8 guests with all the luxury of a large yacht, for weeks of cruising on seas all over the world.

Chartering your boat implies being able to provide a home for a captain, seamen, and a cook . Great care has been taken to provide exemplary quarters for these professionals with 2 double cabins, functional crew quarters and an impeccably equipped kitchen.

As with all new Couach models, the layout design for crew circulation guarantees the intimacy of the guests.

Engines positioned at the centre of the hull, reduced line shafting angle and 12 000 litres of fuel will give the new 2600 FLY maximum power (32 knots max . speed ), unequalled in this category of yachts, covering 900 miles at a round 20 knots.

Expert construction, with an ultra resistant Kevlar© hull; the design of the underbody is based on professional vessels to insure exemplary sea handling.

As with all new Couach models in the range, the 2600 FLY presents the new Coauch design. Of course, as always the shipyard offers its own personal touch: the concept of custom-built layout, equipment and decoration on all models from 20 to 50 metres!
