This year’s Festival de la Plaisance in Cannes saw Maxi Dolphin unveil the new special editions of MD51 Power boat: BELLAVISTA yacht tender and GT (Gran Turismo) yacht tender. Bellavista and GT boats represent the most recent evolutions of the stylistic as well as technological innovation of the yachts from the Erbusco shipyard.

The new designs are a product of the valuable partnership between Dobroserdov Design and Maxi Dolphin. Scale models of the boats were on show at the Maxi Dolphin stand along Quai Saint Pierre (QSP104).
The MD51 Power BELLAVISTA yacht tender model is dedicated to the well-known wine cellar of the same name belonging to the Terra Moretti group. Its prestigious grapes produce fine, fragrant and fruity wines, among the best vintages in the world, known for their refined and inimitable flavour.
Realising potential and creating excellence: this is the philosophy of the wine cellar, a combination of unique artisanship and the epitome of “made in Italy”, values shared by Maxi Dolphin and expressed to the full in the MD 51 Power BELLAVISTA yacht tender, a synonym for extreme elegance, excellence and attention to detail.

The incredible elegance of the waterlines of the BELLAVISTA yacht tender, just like the colours and the wood used for its exterior and the general design, recall warm colours and the striking lines of the bottles, the prized wooden barrels, the elegance and tradition of the cellar from which it takes its name.
The layout and the extremely fine materials employed, as well as the top-level craftsmanship, like the MD 51 Power BELLAVISTA yacht tender to a Bentley or a Rolls Royce, true emblems of excellence: the colours of the exterior are metallic, dark red and black. The deck is produced from finest teak while the cushions and the extremely comfortable sofa come in quilted leather in a sophisticated ivory colour.
The interior surfaces are in wood, in precious finishes and essences, painted in oyster white. The interior sofas are in soft leather, available in the variants ivory 2024 or blue 2242. The floor will be in leather in the elegant shades of blue or natural hide, or in peppercorn Loro Piana Byron Plain fabric.
A stunning white marble is used for the kitchen surfaces, a blend of tradition and innovation, while an elegant blue marble is used for the bathroom surfaces. The basins and handles are in brass.
Both the BELLAVISTA and the GT yacht tender editions were entirely created using the Sprint technology to obtain extremely robust motor yachts of a contained weight that make it possible to install engines of a lower capacity to those normally used in yachts of this size, thus guaranteeing a notable reduction in consumption: both the BELLAVISTA and the GT models have two 435hp Volvo Penta IPS 600 engines.
This revolutionary propulsion system, already used in the MD51 Power yacht tender and MD53 yacht tender, guarantees a higher top speed, greater acceleration and improved performances with an incredible increase in efficiency compared with inboard engine systems.
