New Launch: Cantiere Delle Marche One-Off 43

Cantiere delle Marche have in July 2024 launched the fully custom One-off 43. Called Project B2 during construction, One-Off 43 has the characteristics of a purebred explorer yacht and is the third fully custom construction from Cantiere delle Marche following Crowbridge in 2022 and Audace in 2019. Her exterior lines by Francesco Paszkowski boast an elegant, awe-inspiring beauty, with the right equilibrium between comfortable interior living spaces and the build and technical reliability to take on the seas, and the confidence to sail head-on into remote destinations. An imposing explorer yacht, One-Off 43 strikes a distinctive pose as Paszkowski designed grand exterior deck spaces so guests can relax in a number of outdoor spots designed to offer maximum privacy while creating the feeling of openness and uninterrupted living spaces. Her bright interiors also designed by Paszkowski exude a refined elegance, combining sophistication with an inviting, unpretentious atmosphere. On the main deck, thanks to a wide body configuration from midship forward, four large suites, almost identical in size and features, are at guests’ disposal. Two more guest cabins are located on the Lower deck amidships. Eight crew members benefit from very large and well-appointed quarters on the lower deck forward. The Captain’s cabin is located on the Upper deck next to the wheelhouse. Tender and jet-skis are stored on the Upper deck forward while a chase boat is at owners’ and guest disposal for coastal exploration and comfortable transfers from the yacht ashore and vice versa. To further enhance guests’ comfort, a large beach club with sauna and hammam is located to the far aft of the lower deck, next to the large swim platform, where there is also a day head. With a robust and overengineered displacement steel hull and light aluminium superstructure, Cantiere delle Marche One-Off 43 has a displacement of around 440t. Her naval architecture which ensures excellent seakeeping and frugal fuel consumption, has been designed by Hydro Tec. Twin Caterpillar 1000hp and a 60000-litre fuel tanks allow a top speed of 14 knots and a range above 5000nm at 10 knots; this means she is able to sail far and wide with no need to stop for refuelling.

Project: Cantiere Delle Marche Deep Blue 115

Cantiere delle Marche has sold and starting construction of its first Deep Blue 115 model. The Deep Blue 115, designed by Horacio Bozzo stands as a remarkable successor to her predecessor, the 43m Acala, whose acclaim at prestigious events like the Cannes and Monaco yacht shows, along with her recognition at the World Superyacht Award, paved the way for her evolution into the successful Deep Blue series and it becoming the 141 model. With a robust steel hull, boasting a gross tonnage of 299, the Deep Blue 115 mirrors Acala in both character and amenities. At 35 meters in length with a beam of over seven meters, Deep Blue 115 is to be powered by twin Caterpillar 715hp each, a very modest power which aims to give low fuel consumption and a remarkable range. Axis Group Yacht Design has been entrusted to develop both naval architecture and engineering of the yacht. Cantiere delle Marche Deep Blue 115 offers accommodation for ten guests in five cabins, with the owner stateroom on the main deck forward and four guest suites on the Lower deck. A crew of seven will take care of managing the yacht and attending to the guests’ welfare. The Deep Blue 115 has a traditional layout with two salons, on the main and upper deck, a large galley on the Main deck, guest accommodations on the Lower deck, and plenty of outdoor areas on all decks. Among the yacht’s main features worth mentioning is the large swimming pool on the main deck aft with a tank to store the treated water while underway, a tender garage opening on the port side, openable sliding doors equipped with pneumatic gasketing on both sides of the main salon, a foldable terrace to starboard next to the dining area. Insulation to lower both the already exceptional noise and vibration levels has been improved to grant an incredible comfort and speech privacy in most interior areas. The whole AV/IT systems of the Deep Blue 115 are to be engineered by Videoworks: another yachting excellence from the Marche region, while the interior, envisioned by Giorgio M. Cassetta, promises to captivate and enchant with a subtle elegance made of silent details.

Cantieri delle Marche has recently sold the second unit for a Nauta Air 108 model, and what would be the sixth unit of the Mario Pedol and Massimo Gino Nauta studio from Milan Italy, designed semi-custom series.  The Nauta Air series debuted in 2014 with two 90 models launched in that same year, and was followed with a 108 in 2016, and then a 111 a year later, and a 110 in 2019, with these last two units being both extended custom units born from the 108 platform. An evolved model within the Nauta Air series, this new 108 features subtle enhancements and modernized exterior lines for a truly captivating and contemporary appearance.

Her interiors are bright and airy, and the generous hull volume allows for spacious lodging for the Owners and their guests. Accommodation is split between the Main deck master and four spacious cabins below decks, but guests are likely to spend most of their time either in the cockpit, with its uninterrupted views aft, or on the sprawling Sun deck. Night quarters for five crew members are on the lower deck and the Captain cabin is adjacent the wheelhouse on the Upper deck.  Hull number two of the Nauta Air 108 is to be powered by twin 715hp Cat engines for top speeds up to thirteen knots, a cruise of twelve, and up to 5500 nautical miles of range at nine knots.

New Model: Cantiere Delle Marche RJ 115

Cantiere delle Marche has launched the first RJ 115 model, titled m/y Stellamar this is the second RJ series following the 130 launched in 2021.  The RJ series stems from a fruitful collaboration between the yard’s team and the talented Francesco Paszkowski who has developed a successful series of contemporary modern explorer yachts with an RJ 130 delivered and two more RJ 115 and RJ 155 in the pipeline, this commissioned by the owner of ,/y Stellamar.  Needless to add that this represents an attestation of trust for Cantiere delle Marche and provides a further reference within the yachting community. All models in the RJ line share a strong personality characterized by extremely well-balanced volumes and proportions throughout the design, as well as those characterizing features as, for example the invisible crane.  The RJ 115 project pays respect to the most exquisite yacht design tradition while implementing it with highly sophisticated design solutions. An extensive use of glass in the bulwarks and the open stern enhance the visual continuity with the surrounding environment. RJ 115 profile is tense yet it encompasses sensuous lines that add an unrivalled elegance to her exterior design. With this project, Francesco Paszkowski shows that medium size dimensions are not the enemy of creativity as they make it more effective. Paszkowski succeeded in providing the 35m super yacht with large spaces and luxury amenities while staying true to her explorer yacht’s soul, a peculiarity which sets Cantiere delle Marche from the other players in the super yacht industry.  The RJ 115 is an elegant yet robust, reliable, environment friendly, long range explorer super yacht with unrivalled technical equipment that allow her Owner, family and friends to enjoy safe journeys to the most remote and secluded areas of the globe. For all technical aspects, CdM has drawn not only on the expertise of its in-house design and engineering department but also that of long-standing partner Hydro Tec entrusted for the naval architecture.  The interior layout of this first RJ 115 was tailored to the Owner family’s specific needs and provides ensuite accommodation for eight guests in four lower deck cabins, and a master stateroom on the main deck forward. A crew of seven has their quarters on the Lower deck in three cabins while the Captain’s is next to the wheelhouse on the Upper deck.  A cleverly designed layout offers easy circulation and a functional connection between the decks with all exterior stairs located on the port side and large side walkways. Great emphasis has been given to outdoor areas with large lounging/dining areas on all decks. Yet, should you have enough of sun and wind, when you enter the Main or Upper salon you don’t lose contact with the outdoors as vast windows light the rooms while visually connecting them to the sea beyond.  On the Lower deck you realize that natural light and views are not reserved solely to the upper decks as all four guest cabins on the Lower deck, two Vip and two twin cabins, are indeed bright and airy thanks to large windows.  The yacht’s interior design and decoration are easy on the eye and shapes remain just as soft as the neutral colour palette. Textures of both wood and fabrics also play a central role by echoing materials found in nature. The interior decoration of Stellamar, in its entirety, work in harmony creating warm and welcoming environments. An extensive use of bright natural oak for flooring and ceilings and cream leather wall panelling gives the interior a soothing atmosphere throughout the yacht, in both social and private areas. Paszkowski designed all fixed furniture and chose, together with the Owners, most of the loose furniture and accessories by renowned manufacturers such as the Arpège Meridienne sofas by Christian Liaigre for the lounging area in the Main Salon, the Poliform Saint Germain sofa in the Skylounge, armchairs Archibald by Poltrona Frau, Cassina Hola chairs in the dining area whose table boasts a beautiful Breccia Aurora marble top. All bathrooms share the same bright and relaxing mood thanks to matt white statuary marble coupled to natural oak. The shower stall in the Owner’s bath is equipped with infra-red sauna and hammam.  The RJ 115 is a full-displacement explorer vessel with steel hull and aluminium superstructure. and powered by twin heavy-duty Caterpillar 724hp each  allows for range of around 5500nm at an economic speed of nine knots.

New Model: Cantiere delle Marche Deep Blue 141

Cantiere Delle Marche is delighted to announce that the full custom 43-metre explorer yacht, named m/y Acala has been successfully launched. A pure cus­tom yacht this 43m shows CDM ex­pe­ri­ence and its ap­proach to ex­plorer yacht build­ing. 43m Custom has been com­mis­sioned by an ex­pe­ri­enced yachts­man who, over the years, owned yachts built by ship­yards such as Fead­ship, Lürssen, Blohm and Voss. He is a re­peat client for CDM, a yard which gained his full con­fi­dence hav­ing en­joyed the feel of comfort and safety of his pre­vi­ous Cantiere delle Marche Dar­win 102, cruis­ing in the Med but also sail­ing the ex­panses of the Pa­cific Ocean, the At­lantic and reach­ing the wild beauty of re­mote des­ti­na­tions and the best div­ing spots in the world. Cantiere delle Marche 43m Custom also in­au­gu­rates a new col­lab­o­ra­tion with Ho­ra­cio Bozzo De­sign who de­signed her con­spic­u­ous and eye- catch­ing lines. Her se­vere pro­file with a raked bow and com­pact su­per­struc­ture cap­tures the very soul of an ex­plorer ves­sel combin­ing it with the el­e­gance of a lux­ury yacht that will stand the test of time. Large win­dows on the main deck whose mul­lions seem not to join the su­per­struc­ture are un­doubt­edly a pro­file’s sig­na­ture features. All shapes, vol­umes and lines com­pose a har­mo­nious geom­e­try while her roomy body en­com­passes lux­ury so­cial ar­eas and very large and com­fort­able crew quar­ters, as re­quested by the owner whose plans in­clude long term cruis­ing to reach the far­thest cor­ners of the world. Guest ar­eas are spread over three decks plus a sun deck. Cantiere delle Marche 43m fea­tures a nicely or­ga­nized in­te­rior lay­out that sleeps twelve guests in six suites. A large lobby sits in be­tween the main sa­lon and guest night quar­ters. The full beam main deck, from amidships for­ward is ded­i­cated to guests and own­ers. Three large Vip and ex­tremely com­fort­able owner suite to star­board side are flooded by nat­ural light from large win­dows. Two twin cab­ins are lo­cated on the lower deck. An in­ti­mate sa­lon on the main deck and a large panoramic sky lounge on the up­per deck with din­ing area have been de­signed and dec­o­rated for in­door re­lax­ation and en­ter­tain­ment. A par­tic­u­larly large cock­pit fea­tures din­ing and loung­ing ar­eas, a swim­ming pool and lots of space to re­lax. A large and par­tially shaded sun deck per­fectly in­te­grated into the pro­file pro­vides the so­cial hub for the guests with an al fresco din­ing, bar, vast sun­bathing area along­side a sec­ond swim­ming pool. A dumb­waiter con­nects the gal­ley lo­cated on the lower deck to all deck, sun deck in­cluded, to con­vey food and drinks and ease the work of crew. Cantiere delle Marche 43m Custom in­te­rior de­sign by Mex­i­can ar­chi­tect Si­mon Hamui is lux­u­ri­ous and re­laxed at the same time. It means that it of­fers the pos­si­bil­ity to feel at ease with both beach cloth­ing or for­mally dressed for a din­ner. 43m Custom has a full dis­place­ment naval ar­chi­tec­ture by Ser­gio Cu­tolo Hy­dro Tec of­fer­ing large vol­umes in a 440GT and the smoothest of travel even in rough seas en­sur­ing ex­cel­lent com­fort and to­tal safety. En­gi­neer­ing has been de­vel­oped by the yard tech­ni­cal de­part­ment in col­lab­o­ra­tion with Hy­dro Tec. Need­less to add that she, like all ex­plorer yachts built by Cantiere delle Marche, fea­tures a thick and ro­bust steel hull and light alu­minium su­per­struc­ture. With a to­tal length of 43 me­tres and thanks to a hull geom­e­try her twin Cater­pil­lar 1014hp en­gines will give a range of above five thousand nautical at ten knots and a top speed of forteen knots. The yacht’s en­gine room,, as all en­gine rooms built by CDM, is a show­piece that stands out for its clean­li­ness and func­tion­al­ity with all the yacht’s sys­tems and ma­chiner­ies set up to ac­com­mo­date easy main­te­nance. CDM is a pure breed ex­plorer there­fore she needs a high level of in­de­pen­dence. The en­gine room is one of the sources of that in­de­pen­dence as its re­dun­dant equip­ment al­low to sail far and wide and to reach re­mote ar­eas of the globe where it is im­pos­si­ble to ac­cess any sort of as­sis­tance. An ex­pan­sive lazarette pro­vides a very large stor­age area needed for many cruis­ing ne­ces­si­ties, wa­ter toys, div­ing equip­ment, etc. The main ten­der is stored on the up­per deck for­ward. Crew quar­ters and ser­vice ar­eas are func­tional and well-ap­pointed, as re­quested by the owner. Five cab­ins are on the lower deck along­side a roomy crew mess op­po­site a pro­fes­sional gal­ley and the cap­tain has his own cabin on the Up­per deck next to the wheel­house.

New Model: Cantiere Delle Marche Darwin 106

Cantiere delle Marche has launched its first Darwin 106 model, named m/y Uptight she has been designed to fulfil her owner desire to have a reliable and comfortable explorer super yacht to enjoy months long fishing expeditions in remote and uncontaminated seas. The owners family owns a few fisherman yachts and they wanted to add a slow, displacement explorer vessel to enjoy long expeditions from the moment the yacht leaves the quay to the final destination. Fast trip to fishing spots and adrenaline fishing activities will be held by using the yacht’s large ‘tender’, which is an American Fisherman that will be towed during long trips. The new Darwin 106 is based on the naval platform of the 102, designed, engineered and modified by Sergio Cutolo of Hydro Tec to match her owner requests. For its layout and technical characteristics Darwin 106 meets American standards, according to her Owner’s wishes the yacht features a specifically designed layout with a country kitchen which opens onto the main salon giving the whole environment an informal atmosphere and, instead of a sky-lounge, the Upper Deck hosts a panoramic Owner Stateroom. The most peculiar feature of Darwin 106 is the aft cockpit fitted as that to a sportfisherman. The stern platform has been transformed into an enclosed cockpit with a bulwark. A ‘battle station’ has been centrally placed in the cockpit, and fishing will be carried in ‘stand up’ position allowing multiple strikes to be managed at the same time, giving more fun to the ‘fishing family’. Screw-less rod holders, have been placed on the large teak cap-rail around the cockpit, all equipped with drainages and an easy access for periodic maintenance. Many lockers holding tackle boxes are encompassed into the fishing cockpit bulwarks while flush floor tanks with water recirculation and pump for live fish bait are located on the transom and below the cockpit floor. The adjoining lazarette is arranged cohesively with the fishing activities and include a small yet fully equipped workshop. A double Eskimo ice maker with both salt and fresh water is in the main cockpit alongside a few freezers located beneath the sofa. In order to increase the range also in terms of food loading capacity, the storage space has been improved and optimized for long term food conservation.

Project: Cantiere delle Marche Flexplorer 142

Cantiere delle Marche is glad to announce the sale of another yacht of the Flexplorer line: a Flexplorer 142 has been sold to a young and enthusiast German owner, a keen sailor, who has previously owned several sailing and motor yachts. The Hydro Tec bold exterior design will be completed with refined interiors by Francesco Paszkowski and Margherita Casprini. The owner’s wishes and lifestyle match with Paszkowski’s approach and impeccable poise and the yacht will feature top-end characteristics in terms of functionality and style. As the Flexplorer 130 Aurelia, the 142 features an asymmetrical layout on the main deck. The asymmetry consists in a full beam configuration to starboard which adds square metres to the salon while leaving a useful passageway to port side. For the records, the asymmetrical layout is not something invented in these last years: it actually made its first appearance on Camaleon B a 43m custom yacht designed by Paolo Caliari and his ‘pupil’ Sergio Cutolo in 2002, followed by 53m Leo Fun and Vinydrea. The owner and his family have great plans to fully enjoy their new yacht: they will be firstly exploring many destinations around the Med, after which eventually they will be heading to the Northern latitudes to cross the Northwest Passage. The Passage has been a byword for mystery and endeavour but in recent decades the ice cover retreated and during just a few weeks in Summer it became possible to pass through. The crossing, however, still bears the risk to run into ice floes and a very robust hull is highly recommended. This is why the Flexplorer 142 hull will feature, among other technical upgrades an ice-belt of 22mm steel plates 400 mm above and below the waterline.  Flexplorer 142 will also feature other special features from the A-frame crane that when not used fits flush in the deck and is unseen,  collapsible bulwarks that extend to the further reach of the cockpit, two spaces for two eight meter special tenders on the aft deck, and Infinity pool on the transom.  Cantiere delle Marche Flexplorer 142 will feature six guest cabins, including two owner stateroom one on the forward part of the main deck, and another on the upper deck.  Flexplorer 142 is to be powered by twin MTU 1200hp which give her a top speed up to fourteen knots and a range up to five thousand nautical miles.

New Model: Cantiere Delle Marche Accaio 123

On a rainy September morning, a very private yet cheerful ceremony celebrated the launching of the Acciaio 123. This is the second unit in the Acciaio series built by CdM, the first being the Acciaio 105 launched in 2018. Both yachts bring the signature of Sergio Cutolo from Hydro Tec who was entrusted also for the naval architecture and engineering. Impeccably contemporary in her exterior line that elegantly clothes a robust explorer vessel body, the Acciaio 123 blinks an eye to the past with high-end, timeless and sophisticated interiors developed by Cantiere delle Marche in-house design department in conjunction with the owners.  Leveraging on CdM's experience in the construction of explorer yachts renowned for their sea-keeping and long range, the Acciaio 123 boast generous and extremely comfortable interior spaces spread on three decks plus a large sun deck to host to the highest standards, up to twelve guests in five cabins and seven crew members. For all its characteristics, the Acciaio 123 is an explorer vessel for owners to enjoy the best of ocean exploring in full safety and comfort.  The Main deck layout, with a wide-body configuration, grants extra space to all environments from amidship to forward. This means that both the galley, located to port side, and the Owners stateroom which occupies the forward section of the deck, are extremely large with the latter enjoying an extremely high level of comfort and livability for a yacht of her size.  In an age where eco-friendly attitude is becoming more important also in the yachting industry, at 37.35 metres, with a beam of 7.80m and a displacement of 320t, the Acciaio 123 has two Caterpillar engines of just 533kW each which allow for a top speed of 13 knots and a range, at 10 knots, of 5,500 nautical miles. These remarkable figures are obtained thanks to Hydro Tec full-displacement hull design featuring a smooth distribution of the lines which provides significant reduction of resistance and excellent seaworthiness.  A proper explorer, the Acciaio 123 has large storage to navigate for thousands of miles without the need for any stop for provisioning. The technical spaces are as usual CdM’s feather in the cap for the machinery and equipment, piping and cabling, and their outstanding levels of spaciousness, brightness and meticulously designed layout that allows easy handling and maintenance. Top-end machinery and redundancy in equipment are not there to make Captain and engineer’s life easier, they are testament to the yard’s core mission to make navigation of its explorers in far and remote areas of the globe as safe as possible.
