Project: Majesty 72

The latest project from Majesty Yachts the 72 will boast an exquisite design with distinguished engineering aiming to bridge the gap between the 62 and the best-selling 100 superyacht. Gulf Craft’s in-house design team has successfully re-defined the exteriors and individual accents drawing inspiration from the existing award-winning superyachts in the Majesty Yachts collection, the Majesty 72’s exterior entertainment areas are relatively larger within the segment with ample space on the fly-bridge. With an optional hydraulic swim platform and comfortable crew quarters, the Majesty 72 is an elegant fly-bridge motor yacht with a large fun factor and true cruising ambitions. Marking the latest collaboration between Majesty Yachts and Netherlands-based Phathom Studio, the interiors have been crafted with a seamless blend of luxurious, intrinsic beauty with Gulf Craft’s design philosophy in terms of luxury, practicality, comfort and technology. Powered by a Twin MAN 1200hp engines, the Majesty 72 is capable of achieving a top speed of up to 30 knots and is able to comfortably navigate shallow waters at a draft of under two meters, Thanks to its cleanly modelled surfaces and composite-hull that provides a smooth and dry ride, the Majesty 72’s opulent design will be a steppingstone for other models in the range.

New Model: Salpa 35 Avantgarde

Back in 2010 Salpa was among the first European Italian boat builders to get into the centre console sport cruiser revolution, entered with the 30 GT model which is still in production today.  Twelve years later Salpa is back again with a new centre console sport cruiser, a different model to the GT series also offered in a 40 model with this new Avantgarde 35.  Forward thinking as its name suggests the new Salpa 35 Avantgarde is a walk around centre console sport cruiser with modern looking lines and the reverse shear bow which steals the attention outside.  Considering its exterior spaces and its size the Avantgarde 35 is also spacious below decks offering accommodation for four, in a forward double berth and twin berths at midships, with shower head and mini galley in between the sleeping areas.  But the forward thinking of the Salpa 35 Avantgarde continues in the power and propulsion options for the standard twin Yamaha or Mercury outboards from 250 up to 350hp engines to the single FNM 350hp diesel with line shaft with innovative option for a hybrid with 33hp electric motor set up.

Improve-it = Pardo 50

Pardo Yachts is pleased to reveal the first-ever P50 entirely customized with Missoni fabrics, a project resulting from the collaboration of two pioneering brands of the Made in Italy: the historic Milanese maison founded by Ottavio Missoni in 1953 and Cantiere del Pardo, shipyard with artisanal and industrial roots dating back to 1973. Despite coming from very different industries, the two brands share common values such as attention and commitment to luxury, aesthetics and unique creative design marked by a distinct overseas entrepreneurial spirit. The result? The elegant, clean lines of the Pardo 50, a model which was presented in 2018 are broken by the movement of the iconic, colourful Missoni pattern creating a perfectly balanced combination. Two Italian synonyms of excellence with different styles but perfectly compatible and synergistic.  Pardo 50 Missoni Customised was presented and unveiled at the Cannes boats show in early-mid September 2022.

Sardinia Fire Destroys Five Boats

A fire which started on a twelve meter flybridge cruiser on Eastern pontoon of the Frigiano yacht marina in Castelsardo, to the North of Sardinia at around 04:30 hours of Tuesday six December destroyed and sank four other boats, and damaged two, one which has extensive damage.  The first notice of the fire was reported by a group of fisherman who immediately advised the Sassari police, which called the Civil Protection and Fire Fighting squad.  Two fire engines where called on the scene.  The acting inquiry on the case has inspected the marina cameras, which from initial investigation looks that a short circuit on a twelve meter flybridge cruiser started the fire. No one was injured in the fire.  The same marina had a similar big fire back in 2013 which destroyed eleven boats.

Some of the wrecked boats in this fire are a late eighties Ferretti 36 Altura, and a Piantoni 45 Fantasy.  The damaged boats are a Bavaria 37 Sport, and a Sciallino 40 Fly.

New Model: Sessa C47

Sessa present the new C47, a fully enclosed hard top coupe which shares hull and most of the lines with the upcoming Fly 47 model with a slightly different upper structure.  Unlike some other sport cruisers of the segment who share flybridge sport cruiser platforms the C47 still looks sleek in its hard-top version, and it actually looks like it was made this way. Rightly so Sessa calls the C47 dynamic sport which is totally correct, especially when one notes its practical side from the yacht like walk around deck, to its three cabins interior, and aft galley layout on the main deck.  The Sessa C47 is standard powered by twin Volvo 380hp, or optional 440hp and or 480hp engines with IPS pod propulsion.

Technical Data:

LOA - 14.27 m (46.8ft)

Hull Length - 12.54 m

Project: Cayman 540WA

Following the success Cayman is having with its 400WA model, the Italian builder is presenting a new bigger seventeen meter 540WA.  Like all recent Cayman the 540WA is a project of Ferragni, who presented a sleek looking exterior and useable deck from fore to aft.  The central dinette and galley are spacious as you can get in this size, with a maximum beam of five meters, and all this can be expanded aft with the opening bulkheads which increase this area space by about twenty percent.  Below deck the Cayman 540WA presents itself as a cruising yacht, with three double cabins, master stateroom forward, two shower heads layout.  In between the cabins is an L-shaped saloon.  A crew cabin is located midships in between the cabins and engine room.  The Cayman 540WA is to be powered by twin Volvo 480hp, or optional 610hp both with IPS pod drives.  An outboard option of triple 600hp Mercury with hidden outboards under the aft sun-pad will also be available.
