The Cannes Yachting Festival will be an opportunity for Arcadia Yachts to showcase the A96, the brand’s latest project and one which has convinced owners in Europe and beyond thanks to the new concept of wellbeing it offers. Alongside the A96, Robb Report’s best motoryacht of the year, the Yard will be showcasing a Sherpa 60, the epitome of extreme flexibility, and a Sherpa 80, whose main strength is the generosity of the living spaces.

All three models reflect the brand’s ability to give the concept of slow yachting a contemporary twist that privileges both connection with nature and technological innovation to enhance onboard comfort.

“This French boat show is an unmissable event for the whole industry and this year we’ll be showing three highly successful models that perfectly exemplify our offering of ‘slow’ yachting, which respects nature and encourages contemplation and the enjoyment of every moment of a cruise, from convivial situations to peaceful intimacy,” commented Ugo Pellegrino, who founded Arcadia Yachts in 2008 and launched a range of boats built with exquisite craftsmanship and inspired by the alluring scenery of the Gulf of Sorrento.

The Cannes Yachting Festival – from September 10 to 15 – will therefore be hosting A96, the emblem of a new concept of wellbeing and judged the best motoryacht of the year by the panel of the prestigious Robb Report Best of The Best, an endorsement of the brand’s skill at understanding the needs of American owners. The interior design is by Igor Lobanov, who has drawn sleek curves with an Art Deco flavour across dark lacquered surfaces. The yacht is powered by four Volvo Penta IPS 1350 engines to guarantee excellent manoeuvrability, long range, low emissions and acoustic comfort.

Sherpa 60

Alongside the 30-metre 5-cabin A96 will be two much-loved boats from the Sherpa line. The 18.67-metre-long Sherpa 60 is characterised by its extreme flexibility, with a layout that privileges the stern cockpit, living area and cabins, thanks in part to the 5.60-metre beam. The shipyard offers owners a choice of configurations. Two Volvo Penta IPS 600 engines give the yacht long-range cruising capabilities, with a cruising speed of 17 knots and a top speed of 22 knots.

Sherpa 60

Sherpa 80 is 24 metres long and 7 metres in the beam, with a total of 220 square metres of liveable internal and external space. The feeling of proximity to the water and the surrounding environment is best experienced in the 65-square-metre cockpit, which is connected to the stern platform by a short flight of steps. The Sunlounge has a bar area and can be fully customised, with interiors featuring furnishings with a sophisticated simplicity of style.

In the most powerful configuration (two Volvo Penta IPS-1.350 engines), the yacht has a top speed of over 23 knots, while consumption levels are nearly 30% lower than other boats in this segment. The range at 10 knots is over 1,400 nautical miles
