Evo R4+, the hard-top cruiser that can easily be converted into an open cruiser

At Cannes 2024, Evo Yachts will present the latest model in its R range, the 13-meter Evo R4+. This new model features a hard-top configuration that is fully modular, to adapt to various weather conditions.

New, more durable materials

Evo Yachts launches the Evo R4+, a new model in the R range, with the aim of enhancing the closed deck of the Evo R+, presented at Cannes in 2023. The project also marks a new stage in the shipyard's experimentation with new materials such as aluminum, with the aim of introducing more environmentally sustainable processes.

A cabin cruiser with generous outdoor space

The shipyard and Valerio Rivellini, who designed the exteriors and interiors, have worked together to bring to market a model that combines extremely livable exteriors with the comfort of a cabin cruiser. The Evo R4+, with its 13 m length, has an instantly recognizable style and offers a high level of comfort for cruising in all weather conditions. This is made possible by using the different spaces in different ways, according to need, thanks to innovative, modular solutions for the hard top and aft area.

A modular hard-top configuration

The aluminum hard-top was built at the shipyard, and consists of several removable Plexiglas sections that allow this area to be partially opened, offering different living conditions according to needs and weather conditions. By removing the hard-top, the Evo R4+ can be transformed into an open launch.

A removable, multifunctional rear platform

In the cockpit, the multi-functional, fully customized aft platform adds an extra meter of length to the boat when open, in addition to offering various possibilities for enjoying the yacht to the full. This transformation of the tenderlift is the result of a collaboration between the Blu Emme shipyard, designer Valerio Rivellini and Besenzoni.

The system's mechanisms enable the bathing platform to be lowered to around 80 centimetres below the sea surface, making it easy to get in and out of the water, or to be fully extended for safe and convenient access, even from high pontoons.

The platform is wide enough to be used as a boarding ladder, even with a dinghy or jet ski moored, without having to remove them. The sunbathing island in the center of the beach area is accompanied by a multifunctional sliding dining table.

Intimate, upscale interiors

The high-end interiors below deck are functional and customizable, offering comfortable ambiences where the emphasis is once again on transformation. A door opens onto a Plexiglas staircase with lighting and large non-slip steps, leading to a double cabin.

At the front of the bathroom is a generous dinette with a kitchen unit large enough to accommodate various appliances, a fold-down table that can be converted into another double bed, and a mirror with built-in TV.
