The union of the superyacht style and the explorer
Cantiere delle Marche’s 108 feet Explorer Yacht receives the prestigious award from the World’s most important association of Super and Megayacht operators, in the category Best Interior Design.
Cantiere delle Marche, world leader in the construction of explorer yachts in steel and aluminum, is continuing its series of successes by achieving the prestigious international “ISS LEADERSHIP AND DESIGN AWARD 2016” thanks to its 108 feet explorer yacht M/Y Narvalo, built at the Ancona shipyard and designed by Nauta Yachts.
The prize was awarded by the International Superyacht Society (ISS), the association that, for 25 years has been bringing together the most important operators and professionals of Super and Megayachts around the world, and that gives these highly prestigious Awards through a highly selective voting mechanism. The jury in this case is composed entirely of members associated with ISS. The votes are from competent and objective individuals such as professionals, designers and, in many cases, even owners or Super Megayacht construction sites managers.
M/Y Narvalo impressed the judges for the wise use of items that are recognised as icons of Italian style, placed and mixed with the elegant and timeless architecture, interior design and carpentry, typical of Nauta Yachts. The best and most sophisticated materials act as luxurious accents integrating perfectly in the light, breezy, bright environment. An Explorer Vessel in which the synthesis of solidity, elegance, volume and design finds its best balance: in fact, this synthesis is the figure which characterises the whole Nauta Air line and thanks to which Cantiere delle Marche has revolutionised the world of Explorer Yachts. Essential and lightweight at the same time, strong enough to sail the oceans. As powerful as a hurricane yet as light and fresh as a summer breeze.
Vasco Buonpensiere, sales and marketing director of the shipyard, said: “Receiving an award given by a jury of industry professionals is an immense satisfaction for the wonderful team CdM / Nauta Yachts and for ship owners who have also the great merit of having worked on our side day by day, inciting us to research and develop every single detail and sharing with us their incredible taste and sense of elegance.”

Founder and Managing Director, Joshua Lee states, “We have proudly worked with CdM team for years.
