The most interesting yachts at Cannes Yachting Festival 2023

Features of Cannes Yachting Festival 2023

In addition to the usual already impressive number of premieres of yachts of different sizes, there will also be one interesting innovation at the Cannes Yachting Festival 2023. In 2023, the exhibition will feature a new area called “Small Boats”. This new area is dedicated exclusively to powerboats and RIBs between 8 and 11 meters in length.

Also this year, there will be approximately 600 exhibitors, more than 650 yachts and 140 premieres and previews.

Fountaine Pajot New 80 premiere 

Probably the main event for the Fountaine Pajot shipyard at the exhibition is the premiere of the new flagship. The New 80 will be presented to a wide audience for the first time at the Cannes Boat Show. 

We talked in more detail about the catamaran here. The week before last the Fountaine Pajot New 80 was launched. The excitement around the New 80 makes it clear that the catamaran is set to become one of the shipyard's most popular models. 

Premiere of Grand Soleil 72 Long Cruise

Another interesting premiere is Grand Soleil 72 LC. The new yacht from the Grand Soleil shipyard was created with an eye on yachtsmen who prefer versatile yachts and a high level of comfort.

The main feature of the new yacht should be the wheelhouse and the huge panoramic window in the salon. The design of the yacht was developed by the design firm Nauta Design. We talked about the yacht in detail in this material.

The second coming of Dufour 41

Dufour Yachts will also be at the exhibition. Among the main yachts of the shipyard is the Dufour 41. The yacht was already presented at the beginning of the year at Boot Dusseldorf 2023, but the shipyard will not miss the opportunity to once again show its new model.

A comfortable sailing yacht in three versions was created specifically for lovers of real yachting and sailing connoisseurs. More details about Dufour 41 can be found here or view our video tour on the yacht!

Sailing superyacht Nyumba 

South African shipyard Southern Wind recently launched its new sailing yacht Nyumba. This yacht is a modified SW96 model that will be presented at the Cannes Boat Show.

The yacht is 29 meters long and is also the shipyard's first hybrid sailing yacht. Over the summer, Nyumba has already covered 7,500 nautical miles and the next destination is Cannes. The yacht will be presented to the public in all its glory for the first time.

Electric sailing catamaran SunReef 60 Eco

Probably one of the greenest catamarans at the exhibition. Shockproof solar panels are built into SunReef 60 Eco housings. The boat is equipped with an electric propulsion system with two 70 kW electric motors driven by 140-200 kW lithium batteries.

They are designed for continuous operation of on-board equipment. If suddenly the owner by some miracle does not have enough electricity from solar panels, then two 80 kW diesel generators will come to the rescue.
