Developed by the Prins van Oranje Group in Heeg, The Netherlands, The Venegy 37 is a yacht that combines the latest developments in hull shape, sustainability and performance. Nevertheless, first of all let’s go searching for some more information about its propulsion system (we always think about the engines, apparently…).

In the engine room, we find two Volvo Penta D3 diesel engines, compact and lightweight, each of them with 2.4 liters displacement, 5 cylinders and capable to ensure a power output of 161 kilowatts (220 hp). The maximum speed is over 38 knots, while the length overall recalls the yacht’s name, that is to say 37 feet (11,2 meters).

Above the steering console there is a special roof construction in which a sliding roof system has been integrated. This gives the wheelhouse a maximum amount of light and ensures that outside and inside become one».
