junction between the hull and deck to the highest part of the hull, at the edge of the deck. In this way, the line takes on a convex longitudinal profile that sweeps from bow to stern, allowing for further expansion of the deck spaces, particularly in the forward area. Itama 70’ s profile is also characterised by the side windows running along the hull – first introduced on the Itama 54 – and the transom, which harmoniously follows the angle of the stem, creating an elegant and dynamic silhouette that embodies the brand’ s sporting spirit.
MAIN DECK
The main deck of Itama 70 is designed for enjoying life at sea in the utmost comfort, making the most of the spaces dedicated to socialising.
From the spacious stern platform, which can accommodate a 3.25-metre tender, access to the cockpit is via a door that opens in two sections: the upper section has a pantograph opening mechanism, while the lower section swings out to create a practical step. At the stern, the living area is dominated by a large sun pad – an iconic Itama feature – which is directly connected to the dining area by an integrated backrest that provides a seamless transition between the different areas on the main deck. The U-shaped dining area is completed by a table with a teak top. Opposite, on the starboard side, is the wet bar unit, which is fitted with a sink and fridge and can be customised on request with an ice maker, a grill or a hob, as well as an additional drawer-style fridge – one possible configuration also offers the option of having two different cooking stations simultaneously. The unit can also be transformed into an elegant chaise longue thanks to the addition of a comfortable cushion with a versatile backrest, further increasing the seating options in the
living area( optional). A practical electric bimini top protects this area from the sun and can be fitted with side panels and an aft extension to provide additional shade.
The helm station is located on the port side and provides excellent visibility as well as seating for up to three people. The standard configuration includes two 12-inch touchscreen chartplotters, which can be upgraded to 16-inch units as an option, with SIMRAD navigation systems.
In keeping with Itama tradition, access to the foredeck is centrally positioned in relation to the windscreen and reached via convenient steps. This area is completely separate from the companionway leading down to the lower deck, creating a smoother and more natural flow of movement on board. In line with the styling of Itama 54, Itama 70 also features a
spacious forward sun pad, perfectly integrated into the deck design and acting as an invitation to enjoy the sea in complete freedom, with a panoramic view that enhances the open yacht concept.
LOWER DECK
The welcoming and elegant lower deck is designed to offer the utmost in comfort on board, featuring a galley, a dinette, three cabins and three bathrooms. The stylistic and functional solutions that characterise the spaces below deck include the single floor level featured throughout all the settings. The result is a lower deck free of steps, allowing for fluid, uninterrupted movement. The large windows running along the hull, incorporating the portholes, allow natural light to flood into the interiors.
