With current status reporting that all carpentry and the joining of the hull and deck being complete, the Sherpa XL build now focuses on fitting electrics, insulation and mechanics.

The layout of the Arcadia yacht is an impressive result from a collaboration with popular design team Hot Lab. A central staircase through the decks creates an atmosphere of elegance and poise, with surrounding features further accentuating the modern feel of the Sherpa XL.

Natural light is in abundance throughout the main deck of the vessel thanks to the topsides of the cockpit which have stylish openings, enabling guests inside to make the most of the spectacular views while at dinner at the formal eight to ten seater dining table.

Moving up on to the upper deck, a spacious 35 square metre sunlounge includes a fully equipped bar which is perfect for evening cocktails under the stars. Contrary to traditional layouts on flybridges, the Sherpa XL has a sunlounge completely dedicated to the comfort of the guests with no extra helm station up top. A skylounge is also found onboard, so guests can enjoy the view in the comfort of the interiors, but can still enjoy the cool sea breeze with a touch of a button.

SHERPA XL retains all of ARCADIA’s fundamental brand values comfort, performance, easy handling, eco-friendly technology and customisation options in terms of layout and décor,

In addition to other customisable features such as furnishings and colour schemes, the Arcadia Sherpa XL also has a three or four cabin layout available. For both layouts, extra care has been paid in order to give guests the high level of privacy normally seen on larger vessels. Crew will have thier own corridors and way around the yacht so guests can enjoy their voyage freely.

Standard issue units will be fitted with a pair of Volvo Penta IPS 1050 engines, with another option of having twin IPS 1350 engines instead. Top speeds can reach up to 20 knots with an admirable reach of 1,500 nautical miles while cruising at 10 knots.

Sure to be a hit amongst discerning yacht buyers, the Arcadia Sherpa XL will unquestionably become of of the finest yachts for sale.
