FRAUSCHER 686 LIDO
Following the successful series of sailing yachts of elegant
design that have been built over the years as well as the proven
interest that Frauscher's electrically powered craft have been
enjoying, the Austrian company now in the lime light as European
leader has decided to add to its sales catalogue a series of
models geared to be tenders. The tenders,designed in
collaboration with George Nissen, feature inboard or outboard
petrol or diesel engines and are particularly reliable and
manoeuvrable even in the worse meteorological conditions thanks
to their innovative keels.
The typical somewhat "retro" look
that has imprinted the series right from the outset is to be
found again in this newer model which is regarded as being the
fleet's king pin. The "686 Lido" has a perfect runabout
waterline with an original round steering console at mid ship
which, aside from its pleasant esthetical look, allows for
greater space on board. In fact seat wise, besides the two
armchairs next to the driver there is a comfortable sofa astern
and two smaller ones at the bows that face each other forming a
small saloon. The engine cover is used as a sundeck separating
the cockpit from the bathing area which has an integrated diving
platform. The standard qualitative version foresees a teak deck
and numerous accessories. A specific price list of the optional
fittings allows, however, for an ample personalized choice of solutions.
