Solaris Power is renowned for crafting some of the most striking vessels on the water, and their latest 60 Coupe might be their most beautiful work yet. Hugo Andreae takes us on a tour and sea trial of this latest stunner
Solaris Power has a reputation for building the most beautiful boats on the water, and the Solaris Power 60 Coupé is their latest masterstroke. Blending the sleek lines of a performance cruiser with the protection of a hardtop, it represents a masterclass in Italian design.
The exterior styling is defined by a signature vertical stem and a hull shaped with complex, elegant curves. Every detail is engineered for aesthetic purity; a hydraulic tender garage hides toys and equipment completely out of sight, while pop-up cleats and a recessed anchor locker maintain an unbroken profile.
Inside, the 60 Coupé offers an impressive experience. The defining feature is a pair of massive side windows that drop electronically into the hull. When paired with the large overhead sunroof and a pantograph helm door, the fully enclosed, air-conditioned saloon becomes a breezy, semi-open lounge in seconds.
The interior is finished in a warm blend of natural teak, Alcantara, and leather, featuring clever touches like a pop-up coffee station and a dedicated day head positioned for easy access from the cockpit.
Accommodation is equally impressive for a 60-foot yacht. A massive full-beam owner’s suite sits amidships, utilising the boat’s generous width to provide a sense of luxury usually reserved for much larger vessels. This is complemented by a VIP cabin forward and a versatile third cabin that can be configured as a guest twin or a private office.
On the water, the Solaris Power 60 Coupé is as poweful as it is elegant. Powered by twin Volvo Penta IPS 1350s, the hull’s low centre of gravity ensures a stable, dry ride even in choppy conditions.
During Hugo Andreae’s sea trial, the boat reached a top speed of 36 knots, though it felt most at home at a comfortable 28-knot fast cruise. Starting at €2.1 million, this is a premium machine for those who refuse to choose between the thrill of a sporty open boat and the serious capability of a long-distance cruiser.
