Excellence in design Comfort and safety The Impression range embodies a true passion for sailing, technological innovations and distinctive design. Rob Humphreys of Humphreys Design Studio has been working with Impression Yachts for over ten years to design this unique range of Deck Saloon yachts. Every yacht coming from Elan s 6.000 sq meter facility in Slovenia is the result of our 65-year long passion for building quality yachts. Impression Yachts set new standards in quality, comfort and safety onboard. With a raised Deck Saloon they offer the largest volume in class and each model has numerous interior layouts to suit even the most demanding of yachtsmen. At Impression Yachts we listen to our customers and try to accommodate their wishes to design and build the most comprehensive, quality, cruising Deck Saloon yachts available. In addition to hand layup Impression uses also VAIL and D VAIL technology and its benefits. Latest technologies and modern interior design make Impression Yachts leaders and trend setters in every aspect. Your yacht is built by our highly skilled craftsmen with great care and attention to every detail. We want to make sure that your yacht is in perfect condition when she is delivered to you so every Impression Yacht goes through a testing process in our test tank before departure from the yard. DECK Saloon VOLUME The deck-saloon layout provides extra volume in comparison to traditional designs as a bigger beam is available and put to good use. DECK Saloon INVERTED We inverted the layout and put the saloon forward of the companionway, so the social area is located at full beam. SHORT-HANDED SAILING Short-handed solutions improve the yacht s safety and comfort, easily operated by a limited crew. SELF-TACKING JIB A comfortable solution, designed for short-handed crews, brings easy manouvering in any weather conditions. 6 Bathing platform The bathing platform comes in two sizes with the large platform closing the cockpit completely during sailing. 7
The Impression 50 delivers a consistently pleasurable sailing experience, which means fast cruising and easy handling even when short-handed. Impression Yachts combine hull design with optimal rig and sail area to ensure a safe and stable yacht in every sea condition. The twin wheel/twin rudder system ensures better control and handling even in the most extreme conditions.
