RPH He 85

A raised pilothouse layout means that the wheelhouse position is elevated and the forward main deck area freed for other purposes – such as a main-deck master stateroom, separate dining area or crew quarters. No one can say with certainty which designer produced the first raised pilothouse (RPH) boat, but it is clear the type evolved from both the cruiser style and flush deck style yachts that were in fashion well into the 1950s. This RPH project was designed for Ana Maritime Group in 2005. Considering the exterior styling trends of the period the boat had a quite modern and distinctive look. Project was renounced depending on the approaching world crisis after the preliminary design process was completed.
