Sure was a beauty. US flagged and stopped over for a couple of days in Kefalos. Never saw the owners, but saw a crewman taking a little Yorkie for a walk.
Can you identify the boat.

Tecnomarine T100
This looks having an extra modified raised pilot house above the standard raised PH.
The yard altough legendary with incredible history coming from the sixties for its first Paolo Caliari designs has closed its doors in 2003. And its premises was bought over by Azimut Benetti.
Some steps where done in 2006/07 to restart the brand with a new line of big opens but as far as I know this has failed.
They where also among the second to use Righini for his designs just after he did the Falcon jobs. Then the designer reached famous status for his designs with Azimut.

Yes that is the same a Tecnomarine T100 but without the raised pilot house.
Still looking classy I might add. Look also for the Tecnomarine T58, T62, and T72/75/77 which are also great lookers. Those T62 still fetch a lot of money if well maintained. I know of one which sold 400k EUs about two years ago but was in reall good condition.
Another similar brand to Tecnomarine I suggest you to look at which is also very similar are the Mondomarines designed by Cichero. I still like the ninties built Mondo M60....
Today Mondo just builds custom constructions of 100 feet plus.
It is impressive how Paolo Caliari and Spadolini made school in the sixties and seventies for this design which has been copied over and over, but all these designs will always show tribute without knowing to these designers.

I think it's a modified tecnomar 95, not 100. The 95 has the kink step-up in the forward guard rails that the 100 doesn't have, compare above two pics
PYB, there was a rph-rph version of the 95. I mean, they stuck an rph on top of the standard rph (and the standard rph became a small room like an office or whatever the owner requested). But the standard tecnomar build in this rph-rph design left very tall glazed sides on the flybridge so it felt very enclosed, and not at all like a normal flybridge. It looks like this boat in tinkicker's post has been modded to take down the sides of the flybridge to make it feel more open

Hello JFM
both have the sliding shearline aft, if you look well at the other in the lower picture.
I tryed to look at some old mag where I should have all details about this and if it is a T95 or 100, but got tired searching. But you might be right this is a T95
But surely it is no Tecnomar, this is a Tecnomarine.
I think also this Tecnomarine was designed by a non Italian designer, Jon Banenberg comes to mind but I might be completely wrong as I am trying to remember things.
Tecnomar is a much younger brand then
Tecnomarine. Tecnomar started with powerboat style cruisers designed by Fabio Buzzi in the mid eighties. Today Tecnomar is still going strong and again builds only Super Yachts above 80feet.
Going back to Tecnomar in that time due to the Italian Class 1 success they had a good thing going on with powerboat style builders in the shoe peninsula in the eighties like the amazing handling C&B (also Fabio Buzzi) the 50 Nitro won 3 if not more Class 1 titles (gancia dei gancia, cesa 1882 etc etc), Tecnomar, the Abbates (who won Class 1 EU title) etc etc
Most of these have switched to Cruisers or Yachts, but they surely got results where it mattered......

It was infact designed by Gilgenast and Federici, and was born as T92

Yup both have the sloping/sliding shearline aft, but the easy distinction between 95 and 100 is the step up in the forward s/s hand rail, a couple of metres forward of the step up in the shearline. The 95 has this step up; the 100 doesn't
Yes it is Tecnomarine, not Tecnomar. Sorry, I made a mistake when I typed "tecnomar" and I meant to say tecnomarine
Funky monkey your link goes to a standard build "rph-rph" t95. You can see in those pics what I mean about the high sides to the flybridge. The boat in your link isn't the one in Tinkicker's photo at the top of this thread, because Tinkicker's boat has had the sides of the flybridge taken down (I'd guess because the owners wanted it to feel more open)

Hey jfm, I see what you mean about the fb stepping down now, I'd say it was a standard advertising photo of the boat on the link I put up, the boat on the link has been fully renovated in 2004 and I'd say that drop side on the fb was done then, she's in the Greek islands and is also flying an American flag cant be many of them around there can there? Was it a popular boat? says it was built in 1994 she has defiantly aged well!

Yes it could be same boat with some pics pre refit and some after. It would be some coincidence if there were 2 in greek islands with USA flag. The photo in tinkicker's post shows other non standard tweaks that could have occured on a refit especially deletion of much of the black striping that the original t95s had.
It wasn't a popular boat in the sense that a Fairline/Princess 40-whatever has 200 built. I don't know how many t95s were built but for this sort of boat there were probably say 15-20 built or some number like that, and only a few of those with the rph-rph feature

I think 3 or 4 where built. Not a lot of T92 series where delivered. You also have to remember that each Tecnomarine was more a custom build, and build time was for a minimum of 1 year in this size. What Tecnomarine sold well was the T72/75/77 series which they delivered in about 15 units. Tecnomarine was always a small yard building like 10 boats max per year, and this included the small 45 Cobra. Its most succesful sales remain the C42 and the T62 for flybridge motor yachts. Both of which I still like a lot.
In that period everyone suffered the sales success of the Azimut 100 Jumbo which sold at 30 plus units...

Thanks for all the interesting posts. I am surprised she was so old, she really did look "as new". I expected her to be maybe a couple of years old tops.
Mind you if they have a crew of five on board, I'm guessing skipper, engineer, steward/ess, mate / deckhand and chef, they will have plenty of hands to clean and polish.
