Moonen 68 Flybridge

This Moonen 68 'Rio Grande' was built for a very experienced owner from the commercial shipping industry. During construction, at the request of the owner, the ship was made more silent after an acoustic study by Van Cappellen, which made the yacht extra well insulated and noise-reduced. The current and 3rd owner of the Rio Grande had a flybridge applied in 2021, creating a beautiful extra seating area and an extra steering position on top of the yacht with all basic functions. The flybridge was designed and built by renowned Dutch shipbuilding companies. On board are at least 20 Moonen folders of the construction of the boat, there are also 2 new folders in which the refit and construction of the Flybridge are well documented. All drawings and calculations are included. The following work was carried out during the 2021 refit: Entire yacht re-upholstered, mattresses renewed, extra child's bed created in SB forecabin, lighting completely replaced by LED lighting, interior blinds installed, AIS Class A & Navigation equipment replaced with PC Navigo, engine controls and actuators replaced (Aventics / Bosch / Rexroth), completely new flybridge applied with benches and windshield, second steering position installed on flybridge, extra tender supports installed at the rear for Williams Sport 395 (not included), new kitchen installed in wheelhouse with refrigerator / hob / sink / cupboard space, kitchen / dinette refitted below deck, new tent around cockpit, new sails and outdoor sun blinds, teak decks repaired / cleaned / sanded where necessary, exterior woodwork repainted, stabilizers system overhauled, propeller shafts and screws balanced, all pumps fitted with new rubbers, hydrophore and pump renewed, water tank cleaned.
