Arcadia 100

Light and efficiency combine to set apart the latest yacht from Arcadia.

Arcadia 100

Superyacht design drives what recreational boaters see in all segments of the market. So it may be smart to pay attention to what Arcadia is doing with its new 100.

Arcadia 100

Arcadia uses design to bring together onboard comfort and cruising efficiency
in ways that will make knowledgeable boaters stop and think.

Arcadia 100

Powered by a pair of 1,000-horsepower MAN diesels, the Arcadia 100 offers a range of more than 1,000 miles at cruising speeds of nearly 14 knots.

With that powerplant, this 101-footer tops out at better than 16 knots.

Some may consider the combination of structures seemingly made of glass, angular design, and traditional boatbuilding elements such as the foredeck planking with contrasting caulking, to be an odd juxtaposition,
but when you step aboard, it just works.

The way the design team uses artificial and natural light is especially striking in the forward, main-deck master, where a grid of photo-voltaic cells in the glass overhead produces a dappled grid pattern in sunlight.

The long, wide hardtop over the cockpit offers welcome shelter from too-bright sunshine and pouring-down rain.

The flying bridge has the same effect, with all-around views from its elevated position.
Those windows can power up when a full enclosure is desired.

The helm has a ship-like feel—spaceship, that is.

While her look is not for everyone, there’s a certain beauty conferred by her thoughtful design.

The onboard spaces welcome your family and friends with an easy grace.

Dedicated lounging and dining areas in the main saloon are framed by unimpeded views.

Seabreezes and sophistication come together in the formal dining area.

Nothing is forgotten in the details, such as the tactile experience of using these companionway stairs.

The starboard VIP stateroom welcomes treasured guests with expansive space and fine finishes.

Huge hullside windows only add to the feel of the VIP with its excellent use of light.

Even the double cabins hew to the design on the Arcadia 100, albeit in a smaller format.

On Hull No. 1, all belowdecks head compartments offer similar levels of opulence in the guest quarters.

With a proud bow and angular shape, the Arcadia 100 feels like an explorer yacht poised to take us into the future.

And when she gets there, she’ll undoubtedly fit right in.
