Saxdor Yachts, one the fastest-growing brand in the global boating industry, is thrilled to announce the world premiere of the 460 GTC at boot Düsseldorf 2026, taking place from seventeen to 25 January. The launch of the new flagship model stands as a defining milestone in the Finnish brand’s development, supporting its official entry into larger sport cruisers and yachts up to fifteen meters segment. Building on experience gained across its fleet and from valuable owner and market feedback, Saxdor has developed the new 460 GTC as a natural evolution of the successful 400 series by elevating the brand’s signature strengths and introducing new features and solutions that create a level of comfort and refinement usually found on larger yachts.  At the heart of this evolution is the 460 GTC closed-open concept: the enclosed, all-season wheelhouse opens seamlessly to the exterior, ensuring uninterrupted circulation from the bow lounge to the aft deck. Dual-opening side doors allow the wheelhouse to merge naturally with the outdoors, while a large galley enhances the onboard experience with ample facilities for cooking and entertaining. Forward of the galley, an innovative two-part door solution provides access to the large convertible foredeck lounge through an upper section that lifts and slides into the roof enabling the lower section to hinge open. Aft, a half-height window paired with a port-side door opens the saloon to the expansive open-air cockpit, enhancing the sense of space and connection with the water. This seamless connection between interiors and exteriors is reinforced by the yacht’s outdoor living areas, designed to complement the interiors and offer new ways to relax and gather on board. Saxdor’s signature “private island” feeling is enhanced through the largest fold-down terraces in this class, which create a generous open platform directly above the water. New elements across the terraces introduce fresh ways to enjoy the outdoors, bringing added versatility and comfort to life on board. The aft deck has also been refined with new configurable options, opening up additional space for relaxing, gathering, and entertaining. Scaling up in size without compromising performance, the 460 GTC remains unmistakably Saxdor. A wide range of Mercury power options, from triple V8-300 engines up to twin V12-600s, allows owners to tailor the 460 GTC’s performance to their needs, with top configurations also offering the advanced Fathom® e-power system from Navico. Saxdor was in fact the first boatbuilder outside the U.S. to adopt this integrated lithium-ion auxiliary power management solution, which sets a new benchmark in onboard energy efficiency. The new 460 GTC has been thoughtfully designed to appeal to today’s varied boating lifestyles: from boaters looking to upgrade, experienced owners seeking a more agile and owner-operated yacht, to those who value social, comfortable time on the water, the 460 GTC delivers the space, refinement, and effortless usability that define the next generation of Saxdor range.

Project: Aiata Sunfinder 38

Aiata a brand founded by the Anadolu Group from Turkey follow its debut at the 2025 Dusseldorf boat show of the Wayfinder 38, with the more open Sunfinder 38.  Again a design from Jarkko Jämsén and his Navia Design Studio the Sunfinder 38 is an open version of the Wayfinder 38 replacing the fully enclosed hard-top with a central T-Top .  While many may think this is Wayfinder 38 Suntop version, in many cases it is correct with the exception that the hard-top has been extended giving extra sun cover to the aft part of the cockpit.  With this change the exterior main deck of the Aiata Sunfinder 38 offers a more open and sport layout.  A triple seat centre console helm now replaces the offset dual seat, with a galley located behind versus the one to side and L-shape of the Wayfinder 38, and an astern dinette with opposite settees.  Saying all, what I just said can change as the Aiata 38 comes with a modular construction, and specified during build.  For example the settee behind the helm station can be specified as an L-shape, and the fore deck layout is also available in four different versions; Camper, Sofa, U Sofa, and Sunbed.  The cabin layout with entrance to port of the helm, features a double berth, and shower head to starboard.  The Aiata Sunfinder 38 is powered by twin outboard engines from 300hp up to 400hp, with top speeds up to 46 knots from twin 350hp Mercury outboards.

This connection extends inward. The aft salon, located at water level, links directly to the beach area, creating a seamless flow between exterior and interior. This layout allows the aft salon to serve as a private extension of the owner’s suite. The full-beam master cabin, spanning an impressive 6.3 meters in width, connects directly to this salon, offering the owner a superyacht-level apartment where one feels already outdoors. On the same level, two or three VIP cabins, depending on the chosen layout, offer generous dimensions that top their category competitors. Well-designed, discreet crew quarters ensure impeccable service and onboard efficiency. Moving to the main deck, Bluegame leverages an asymmetric design, featuring a single staircase on the starboard side, to maximize the dining area. This creates space for a customizable outdoor bar and kitchen unit, adding a further layer of personalization for the owner. Inside, the upper salon impresses with 360-degree glazing and two large opposing sofas, a layout choice that immediately conveys the perception of a superior class yacht. The new Bluegame BGX flagship stands as a testament to a powerful creative synergy between four defining figures in the industry; Luca Santella the Bluegame founder and concept creator, Louis T.

Galeon have announced the new 520 Fly project.  A replacement to the 500 Fly after a decade in production, very little is known of this new 520 Fly project, except that it is designed by long standing Galeon designer Tony Castro.  The 500 Fly debuted Galeon today signature drop down terraces in 2015, and while not new at the time, the Polish yacht maker was the first to introduce this on cruisers rather then sports boats or mega yachts. The idea proved a winner, as the drop down balconies are now featured on nearly all Galeon's above thirteen meters.  The 520 Fly features more of everything, so except bigger transforming terraces, and as the above rendering shows more glazed surfaces, and a larger flybridge hard-top supported by an aft looking spoiler.

Project: Cantiere delle Marche RAW 110

 

Cantiere delle Marche announce the keel laying of RAW 110.  Announced as a RAW 102 project in the fall of 2024, the project was extended by two meters aft to become the RAW 110 for the first in the new semi-custom series as designed by Giorgio M. Cassetta The keel laying of a yacht is a highly symbolic and significant milestone in the construction process, as it marks the moment when the vessel truly begins to take shape. The keel forms the structural backbone of the yacht, the very foundation upon which every other component will be built. In maritime tradition, this ceremony represents the birth of the ship, embodying the beginning of its journey from a design or dream into a tangible reality. It is often seen as the foundation of “everything,” symbolizing strength, stability, and the promise of the vessel’s future life at sea. RAW’s keel laying was no exception, and it was a deeply emotional and joyful private ceremony. When asked about the features that attracted him most, the Owner said that much appreciated was the refreshing aesthetics crafted by Cassetta, with whom an immediate affinity was felt. From a functional point of view, extremely generous liveable spaces and volumes, and the seamless connection between large indoor and outdoor spaces were winning points, alongside the yacht’s technical reliability. Among his early requests, already anticipated in the design, was the inclusion of a large tender and ample storage space for multiple toys at the bow. Additionally, he wanted to enjoy biking, his favorite sport, even while on holiday aboard his yacht. To accommodate this, several bicycles will be stored in a dedicated, easily accessible area on the aft beach, enclosed by bulwarks.
