Italia Yachts IY 14.98 Bellissima
About this yacht
The Italia Yachts IY 14.98 Bellissima represents a thoughtful evolution in performance cruising design, blending long-distance capability with refined onboard living. Introduced in 2020, this 15.35-meter sailing yacht holds CE (A) certification, qualifying her for open ocean passages while maintaining the responsiveness and handling characteristics that define the sport-cruiser category. Her fiberglass hull employs a sophisticated sandwich construction with bi-axial and unidirectional reinforcements, vinylester resin, and strategic carbon elements—a combination that delivers structural integrity while keeping displacement in check. The 2.50-meter draft strikes a practical balance between performance under sail and accessibility to a broader range of anchorages. Accommodating up to ten guests across three cabins, the IY 14.98 Bellissima offers flexible interior arrangements with two or three bathroom configurations, each designed to maximize storage without compromising livability. The saloon centers around a generous dining table flanked by a U-shaped sofa and secondary settee, creating distinct social zones within an open, light-filled space. Premium materials, full-height wardrobes, and ambient lighting elevate the experience, while the optional wine cellar adds a welcome touch for extended cruising. On deck, twin wheels replace the traditional tiller, providing better sightlines and control. The integrated bowsprit extends sail-handling options, and the teak-finished cockpit adds both visual warmth and practical durability. Clean lines and contemporary detailing—matte and glossy surfaces working in concert—enhance both volume and natural light throughout. Whether approaching her as a capable bluewater cruiser or a responsive racer-cruiser for weekend sailing, the Italia Yachts IY 14.98 Bellissima delivers a cohesive package where performance, comfort, and thoughtful design converge.
