The ICE 70 Grand Comfort is the third model of a series born from the collaboration with the Felci Yacht Design studio together with the yard’s technical staff. ICE 70 Grand Comfort is a source of pride for the shipyard because it denotes its continuous and steady expansion after the successes of the previous two models.
Quality and comfort are the keywords which distinguish all ICE hulls with a focus on on-board comfort.
ICE 70 GC is a technologically advanced boat with ample comfortable interior and exterior spaces, easy to drive without sacrificing performance and safety. There are currently two models under construction, the first of which will be launched by the end of March 2023 in Varazze.

Many other details, to be discovered by climbing aboard, highlight how the deck study was conducted in the search for a synthesis between a deck ideal for relaxed cruising life and that of seamanship and efficiency, necessary during long-distance sailing or racing.
Particularly elegant as well as functional are the maxi dodger and the two bimini to protect the helmsman and guest cockpit. All goodies intended to emphasise the focus of the Ice 70 Grand Comfort, which is precisely comfort. Following the success of the previous model, at the stern we find the seats that have been extended towards the middle of the boat, thus offering two chaise longues and allowing more storage space.
Generous dimensions ensure considerable interior roominess without complications for shallow water navigation or access to the ports thanks to a Keel Lifting system that varies draft from 2.8 metres to 4.5 metres.
Navigation will be facilitated by state-of-the-art instrumentation and maneuvering assisted by electronics and hydraulics also of the latest generation in order not to fail the “easy sailing” concept that distinguishes every ICE product.
A luxury vessel with modern and attractive water lines, beautiful to see moored at the dock and majestic to cross the sea, very fast in light winds and manageable on her own without losing contact with the water, all safely and with a small crew.
The boat is equipped with a powerful 230 hp Yanmar engine that enables incredible performance even in no wind. Ensuring this performance is compounded by the high technologies used in the construction and the incredible quality of craftsmanship of the highest quality performed by technicians with experience gained over many years dedicated to building boats that have written the history of sailing.
Beneath the aft deck, with good and useful free area, is a garage for a 3.2-metre rigid-keel tender with a folding transom or usable as ample and capable storage that can also be accessed from a walk-through on deck.
In the garage there is a carbon crane (exclusive ICE patent) that will facilitate all manoeuvres related to the handling of the tender.
The main essence used in the furnishings is teak left natural, the first message of how classicism and nautical tradition can be married with the contemporary. The inserts that cover the vertical walls and create a continuum throughout the living spaces are made of natural leather.
The aft area, organised with the captain’s cabin, communicating with the galley area, is completely self-contained to ensure considerable privacy for the owner and his guests.
The forward area is dedicated to the master cabin, which is spacious and elegant with a master bathroom complete with shower and sauna all lined in teak and with a small study where one can retire in absolute tranquility, and the guest area consisting of a cabin with a double bed and ample closets and a dedicated bathroom.
