The hybrid crossover

The Seadeck 7 belongs to the yard's first hybrid series, a family built around efficiency and a close connection to the water. It offers four cabins plus a crew cabin in a package of just under 22 metres. The pitch is a boat that lets owners spend time at anchor with a much smaller environmental cost. The design leads with sustainability without giving up comfort. For owners watching emissions, it is a genuinely modern answer.

Alberto Mancini drew the exterior and the studio of Matteo Thun and Antonio Rodriguez shaped the interior. Carbon fibre lightens the structure by around 30 per cent, and recycled PET makes up a share of the build. The boat holds RINA Green Plus certification. The 7 is a design-led boat with sustainability at its core. It reads as fresh and forward-looking on the water.

The Fun Island stern

The defining feature is the reinvented stern, an unprecedented open-air lounge with opening wings and an aft platform that descends into the water. It turns the back of the boat into a beach-club terrace level with the sea. Guests swim, lounge and gather in a space that feels part of the water itself. The opening wings widen the deck at anchor. It is the heart of life aboard on a sunny day.

The main deck opens to the cockpit and the stern lounge for a seamless indoor-outdoor flow. The upper deck adds another social area for sunny days. Wide side decks keep movement safe and easy. Stowage keeps the working gear out of sight. At anchor the 7 is built around the pleasure of being in and on the sea.

A mild-hybrid drivetrain, an 80 kWh battery and a stern that descends into the sea cut CO2 by up to 40 per cent.

Interior and accommodation

Matteo Thun and Antonio Rodriguez gave the interior a natural, tactile palette in keeping with the boat's environmental brief. Four cabins sleep the guests in comfort, and the carbon build frees up genuine volume. Natural light fills the main deck and the cabins below. Hull windows keep the lower deck bright and open. The materials carry the sustainability story into the detailing.

A crew cabin supports longer trips, and the galley is set up for sociable cruising. Recycled materials, including PET equivalent to thousands of plastic bottles per boat, run through the build. Storage suits weeks aboard with the family. The owner's cabin gives a genuine sense of retreat. It is an interior that carries its story with quiet confidence.

Hybrid engineering

Standard power is twin Volvo Penta IPS 1200 pods at 900 hp, with an optional step up to IPS 1350 at 1,000 hp, for a top speed of around 31 knots. A mild-hybrid system with an 80 kWh lithium battery drives a zero-emission hotel mode, holding the boat at anchor for up to eight hours overnight without running generators. The result is quiet, clean nights aboard. Pod control keeps the boat easy to berth. Few boats of the size offer this hybrid ability.

The efficiency package cuts annual CO2 by up to 40 per cent through the hybrid drive, the carbon build and the recycled materials. The boat can carry up to 1,410 Wp of solar panels. The hull holds a level, quiet attitude at cruise. Handling stays predictable as conditions build. Owners get real environmental gains without giving up performance.

The owner it suits

The Seadeck 7 is for the owner who wants water-level living and a genuine efficiency story in one boat. Buyers drawn to the descending stern lounge and quiet hybrid nights at anchor will find little else like it. It suits families who spend their time in and on the sea. The hybrid hotel mode changes how nights at anchor feel. For many buyers it is the freshest boat in the range.

It also appeals to owners conscious of emissions who refuse to give up design or performance. The crew cabin adds flexibility for longer trips. For summer cruising built around swimming and time at anchor, the 7 is a forward-looking choice. Its green credentials add resale appeal as the market shifts. Owning one places a buyer at the front of the yard's thinking.

Who it is for: The owner who wants water-level living and quiet hybrid nights at anchor with a genuinely lighter footprint.
