Project: Lancia Aprea 42

Lancia Aprea the new brand of Fratelli Aprea which debuted with the 52 model in 2023, presents its second act of five, with the arrival of the 42 project set to arrive in the second half of 2025.  The Lancia Aprea 42 is again a design of Brunello Acampora, with similar lines to the bigger 52 but in a more compact twelve meter platform.  So far details for the 42 are this rendering, which is shared on the boat builder social media pages.  Most probably like the bigger sister the Lancia Aprea 42 will be offered with three propulsion choices of IPS, outboards, and shafts, and expect two or three lower cabin choices.  The Lancia Aprea 52 has been as successful as it can be, with the builder so far delivering five units as of end 2025.  Due to the hand making and customization of the Lancia Aprea 52 they can build about three to four 52's a year with each unit taking about five months to build.

New Model: Lancia Aprea 52

Lancia Aprea is a new line from Fratelli Aprea which debuts its first 52 model, a beautiful traditional yacht inspired to the past with centre console features which bring it to the present and take the Sorrento builder into future.  A project of Brunello Acampora, who took care of both design and naval architecture, the Lancia 52 received the compliments in each boat show, from its debut at Cannes Yachting Festival, to Genoa and Monaco yacht show that it was one, if not the most beautiful boat in these shows.  The Lancia Aprea 52 is also a versatile yacht, offered in four lower deck layouts; six berths in three cabins and two heads with no lower saloon and galley, two cabins two heads with L-shaped dinette in between the cabins, two cabin with three berths midships cabin plus saloon and galley, and forward U-shaped saloon and two twin berths cabins at midships.  The Aprea Lancia 52 is also offered in three distinctive engine propulsion choices with Man 800hp with line shafts, Volvo 600hp IPS pods drives, and quadruple Mercury 600hp outboards for fifty knots performance.  Lancia Aprea 52 hull one featured a three cabins sleep only lower deck layout, and twin Man 800hp on shaft drives, with hull #two set to be a quadruple outboard version for the USA market set to launch in 2024.  Lancia Aprea is a new departure for the Aprea Brothers, which with this 52 celebrate the beginning of a new line which is planned to feature four other models which start from 32 and go up to 72 feet.  Next incoming is set to be the 62, which is then to be followed by the 42 model.

Project: Lancia Aprea 52

Fratelli Aprea present the project for the Lancia 52, a walk around Gozzo inspired yacht of sixteen meters in length, with design coming from Brunello Acampora's Victory design. The Lancia 52 follows what other traditional gozzo builders have pioneered in recent years, most notably Apreamare and Mimi, for a walk around centre console traditional yacht suited for day cruisers with bow to stern exterior spaces.  Brunello Acampora design was a pioneer in this style when he designed the 11m Gozzo for Apreamare in 2017, although the next versions of the models by Marco Casali proved more a point where the design should go. Previous to this model Fratelli Aprea was the most traditional of the production gozzo builders, with current builds of seven to fifteen meters having an abundant flair which can compete with that of Eastern Carolina sportfish custom builders.  From the renderings visible so far the flair on the Lancia 52 seems less dramatic.  The Lancia Aprea 52 will feature three propulsion choices from traditional line shafts, Volvo IPS pod drives, and quadruple Mercury 600hp outboards with this last option showing the Italian Sorrento builder also looking at the expansive North American market.
