Designed with long-range capability in mind, the Classic 108 has a fuel capacity of over 50,000 litres which, the yard claimed, would enable it to cross the Atlantic and back on a single tank of fuel.

The 350GT interior has been described as “luminous and fresh” by the yard. The yacht has enough accommodation for a total of 10 guests in five cabins including a main deck master that takes full advantage of the 8.3 metre beam. The four remaining guest cabins sit on the lower deck alongside the crew accommodation.
