Italia Yachts 14.98

Interior Styling and Features

The Italia Yachts 14.98 interior exudes contemporary Italian craftsmanship through the thoughtful use of refined materials and an intelligently organized layout. Upon descending the companionway, you are immediately welcomed by an inviting living space that seamlessly balances form and function.

 

The Bellissima package elevates comfort with plush upholstery and premium fabrics, enveloping the saloon settees, cabin seating, and backrests. These luxurious soft goods are paired with subtle detailing—like contrast stitching and designer accents—to create a sophisticated, stylish atmosphere.

 

A blend of oak paneling and laminated fabric on the overhead surfaces adds warmth and texture to the interior. The gentle grain of the oak contrasts beautifully with the modern fabric panels, creating a bright and airy environment without sacrificing durability or ease of maintenance.

 

The cabin sole is finished in oak with distinctive longitudinal milling, adding an element of visual interest and depth. Teak joinery is applied throughout the yacht’s interior, enhancing the design’s classic yet modern appeal. From cabinetry to trim work, every piece is carefully crafted to ensure smooth edges, flush fittings, and a sense of unity with the rest of the space.

Hull and Deck

The hull and deck of the Italia Yachts 14.98 is constructed utilizing vinylester resins with unidirectional and biaxial fibers with variable density PVC foam core vacuum lamination. The structural framework is laminated with unidirectional carbon reinforcements integrated into the hull and deck. The “T” keel with steel structure incorporates a lead torpedo keel, the entire structure is then encapsulated with GRP fairing to create the perfect hydrodynamic shape.

 

The biconical rudder stock is constructed of anticorodal EN6082 with reinforcement blades throughout the structure of the sandwich construction of the high efficiency wing sections for added performance, stiffness, and strength. The rudder bearings are self-aligning roller bearings. 

 

HULL 

The 14.98 exhibits relatively straight stem and stern overhangs, maximizing waterline length for efficient upwind performance and better speed potential. A moderate beam is carried aft, providing plenty of form stability without pushing the design into the extreme “wide and flat” territory seen in some race-focused yachts. This helps maintain balanced handling and reduces drag in lighter conditions.

 

Great care has been taken to keep weight low and centered, which helps minimize pitching and improves the boat’s motion in waves. The use of advanced composite construction ensures the hull is both stiff and relatively light, optimizing sailing performance under both racing and cruising loads. 
 

Forward sections are fine enough to part the water cleanly, enhancing upwind ability and reducing wave impact. As you move aft, the hull sections gain volume to provide buoyancy and stability, contributing to strong off-wind performance and overall seakeeping. 

• Bow thruster with dedicated 130Ah AGM battery with controls at the helms
• Cruising bowsprit with integrated anchor roller High-aspect ratio rudder ensures precise helm feedback and control across a range of heel angles and speeds.
• “T” Keel with steel structure and lead torpedo covered with GRP fairing for optimized hydrodynamic flow.

 

DECK 

The deck of the Italia Yachts 14.98 reflects the yacht’s performance-cruiser ethos, offering a clean, functional layout for both racing maneuvers and leisurely cruising. The cabin top is kept relatively low, emphasizing the yacht’s modern lines and allowing for excellent visibility from the helm. Flush hatches reduce tripping hazards and contribute to the uncluttered aesthetic. The minimal coachroof height also helps reduce windage, improving performance under sail. 

 

Generously wide side decks allow crew to move forward and aft without obstruction—a benefit both when racing and in day-to-day cruising. Handrails and guardrails are well-placed for secure footing and added safety.

• White non-skid deck
• (7) Lewmar flush hatches with Ocean Air screens and shades screens
