Cantiere delle Marche announces the launch of the Deep Blue 115 titled m/y Octopus, a new explorer super yacht that builds upon the striking and successful Deep Blue concept developed in collaboration with designer and naval architect Horacio Bozzo. The Deep Blue 115 traces its origins to Acala, the first CdM Deep Blue vision yacht. Initially conceived as a one-off project, Acala delivered in 2022 then became the Deep Blue 141 quickly captured the attention of enthusiasts and industry insiders alike, thanks to its distinctive design, robust explorer capabilities, exceeding expectations, as CdM received an order for a second Deep Blue 141 and requests from clients seeking yachts inspired with the same concept but on other sizes. Responding to this strong market interest, CdM and Horacio Bozzo developed the Deep Blue range with the 130 and the 115 as an evolution of the original idea, retaining the bold identity and functionality of original Deep Blue 141 while redesigning the platform to meet the demands of her owner. Giorgio M. Cassetta has been entrusted to create yacht’s interiors that matched with the overall feel of the exterior lines, who provided an accommodation for ten guests plus two across five suites, including the Owner’s quarters, while a crew of seven is housed in four dedicated cabins.. The Deep Blue 115 embodies CdM’s core philosophy: combining seaworthiness, efficiency, and long-range capability with contemporary design and exceptional comfort, designed for extended cruising in all conditions, the yacht features generous volumes, optimized layouts, and the rugged reliability that has become synonymous with the CdM name. With the Deep Blue 115 Cantiere delle Marche reinforces its position as a leading builder of explorer yachts, demonstrating once again its commitment to quality, and client-driven development. Bold and elegantly flared, the Deep Blue 115’s bow features the range’s signature ‘beak look’: a distinctive design achieved by introducing a subtle gap between the upper section and the main hull. This refined detail extends from the bow all the way to the overhang of the upper deck’s stern, lending the yacht a sense of lightness and motion. The Deep Blue 115 features more than just large windows: on the forward section of the main deck, they serve as a defining design element that shapes the yacht’s entire profile. These windows become a signature feature of the project, distinguished by their mullions that appear to float, subtly detached from the superstructure. The cockpit, designed with functionality and relaxation en plein air in mind, gives easy access to the main indoor living areas. It includes a swimming pool, ample seating, and convenient storage. A generous swim platform not only enhances the entire beach area comfort but also adds sleekness to the yacht’s overall profile, ensuring both aesthetics and function are balanced. A tender garage is situated aft, with an opening hatch to port. With an overall length of 35 metres the first Deep Blue 115 is powered by twin Caterpillar 715hp, which enable a top speed of thirteen knots and ensures efficient long-range cruising of up to 5,500 nautical miles at nine knots.
