PRIDE & PRESTIGE

The 630S (SportYacht) is a coupe-style launch featuring a stylish TSport Flybridge that’s exclusive to larger models in the S-line range. You can also order the 630 in a full-sized flybridge version, without the stunning opening roof panel of the 630S. The more compact (though still expansive) Sport Flybridge moves the helm aft and gives the vessel a more rakish and sporty profile.

This stylish vessel looks fast, but the emphasis is on cruising comfort. Twin Volvo Penta IPS 950s give it a respectable top speed of almost 30 knots with excellent throttle response and a sporty feel, though the boat is quiet inside and out. Cruising at 24 knots with the Volvos spinning at 2,250rpm, Serenità is even quieter and, with her gyro stabiliser, progress is steady as she goes in a seaway.

Prestige’s 630S utilises space extremely well. It has a roomy three-cabin layout, plus a crew cabin aft, accessed from the swim’s owners use the crew cabin for storage, but it is fully-appointed with two bunks and a separate head and shower. Engine room access is either through the aft cabin or via a ladder from the cockpit hatch.
