The recently established Italian luxury yacht builder Cantiere Delle Marche is proud to announce its Darwin Class yacht range’s success. After building three Darwin 86′ yachts, the yard has signed a contract to build the fourth Darwin superyacht – the 95′ Darwin Class motor yacht – after only 11 months from the company’s birth.

Vasco Buonpensiere, sales and marketing director, comments:”We are incredibly satisfied  and proud of the redemption we had after the important showcase in Cannes. The  number and the quality of the contacts that came from the boat show are amazing and the  overall appreciation for the construction’s features of the Darwin Class confirmed our  belief that the yacht market is now looking for quality, contents, design and attention for  the details, in order to answer to this evolution of the ship owner’s needs. The new  nautical year has opened in the best way for Cantiere delle Marche: after less than a year  from our birth, we debut with the first Darwin Class in one of the most important boat show of the international market. More, we have already signed four contracts, in  particular the most recent, for the sale of a 95’ Darwin Class yacht”.

Darwin Class 95’yacht , designed by Hydro Tec Srl (Sergio Cutolo), maintains the Darwin family  feeling,  but it differentiates from the  86’ for many features: the interiors  – each room is  10sqm bigger -,  the crew accomodations (5 people), two Caterpillar engines C18 that give  13,5 knots speed without noise and the minimum levels of consumption. The sky lounge,  opened on the wheelhouse, is designed to satisfy the ship-owner request of steering his yacht and, at the same time, enjoying the company of his guests. The interiors will be contemporary, linear and very luminous, with a total white lower deck enriched by details in essence. The interior designers are Pierluigi Floris and Marco Veglia.

As the interiors, also the exteriors  gain in volumes  in order to enjoy the very best sensations every minute of the life aboard: all the bridges are noticeably longer and the sundeck has become about 50sqm, from 40sqm on the Darwin 86.

The new Darwin 95′ expedition yacht totally matches with the Darwin Class’ technical features as far as for the  extra-thick steel plates, the Cupro Nickel piping, the remote controlled valves, the automatic parallel device for gensets’ management, etc.

Every details in the engine room has been designed and constructed following the criteria that are usually used on high quality vessels exceeding 40 metres. The treatment systems for bilge, black and grey water are plants used also on commercial ships and could work H24.As for the 86’, the 95’ we have two rudders that could be controlled also independently to offer an incredible maneuverability in every sea condition.

This system has been tested time after time by the captain of the Darwin Class 86’ motor yacht “Vitadimare 3”, during more than 3000 miles of navigation from the day of delivery.

“The fourth closed contract and the two letters of interests we have just signed for the next years demonstrate once again that our yachts fit with the current yacht market’s needs” – comments Vasco Buonpensiere. And he adds: ”Ever since its recent foundation, Cantiere delle Marche has set out to distinguish itself in terms of the contents of its vessels, focussing on top-flight quality and unique design. Each ship, produced in only a limited number of units, guarantees sturdy, seaworthy performance, combined with low fuel consumption and the stunning volumes of the interiors”.
