The 17 World Superyacht Awards 2017 sponsors and partners

Navigo partner: Baglietto

Baglietto shipyard specialises in the construction of new aluminum planing and semi-planing from 35 to 50 metres as well as displacement superyachts above 40 metres in aluminum and steel. The production activity is completed by a refitting and a restoration activity and by the construction of military vessels. The shipyard spreads over 35,000 square metres and faces La Spezia and the “Poets’ Gulf” which is a strategic area for the navigation of superyachts in the Mediterranean sea.

Furthermore, the shipyard has recently completed a renovation project of the workshop area with includes considerable modifications and upgrading of the production facilities as well as office buildings. Seven new motor yachts are currently under construction at the yard: while the prototype of MV19 is being built, a new 55 metre displacement motor yacht is being produced together with two 43 metres and a 46 metre in the Baglietto Fast Product Range, one 54 metre motor yacht and a new 48 metre displacement line.

Other projects already developed both from the style and the engineering stand-points, designed by Francesco Paszkowski Design and the technical department of the yard, include also a 58 metre, a 62 metre displacement motor yacht and a 38 metre fast motor yacht. The outstanding effort is focused not only on the production of new vessels but also on the relevant engineering research and development activity of new models ensuring future enhancement and consolidation of the Product Range and of the yard activity. Each of these new projects coherently follows the conceptual design ideas that proved to be successful in the past, identifying Baglietto style as well as respecting all naval qualities such as stability, soundness and reliability which have always characterized Baglietto vessels since the onset of the yard production.

Navigo partner: CRN

CRN is an Italian brand and shipyard, part of the Ferretti Group, specialising in the construction of yachts from 40 to 100 metres. It is one of the largest manufacturing companies in the luxury marine sector in Europe.

Over the years, CRN has established itself as an icon of Italian excellence and the creator of unique masterpieces, which represent the true essence of the shipyard’s core mission: taking the wishes of its increasingly aware and demanding clients and giving them a tangible shape, without any limits or contraints. The shipyard is considered as a synonym of innovative craftsmanship. Just like in a real atelier, where customers come to get a bespoke suit, CRN builds fully-custom yachts taking the same approach as a master tailor. Each customer has their own specific measurements and needs, and no “suit” should ever be the same as another, even if they are made by the same hands. The superyachts built by CRN reflect the vision of their owners, matching their personal taste and style while fulfilling specific desires.

Every megayacht built by CRN is the result of the combination of different ideas, know-how, and professional skills – all sharing a great common passion – and the will to create something truly unique. The partnership with various world-famous architecture and design firms has allowed to show the different sides of the shipyard and CRN’s ability to let different schools of thought interact and work in synergy, to grasp the richness of diversity, and to show its flexibility and quality in developing unique and original projects.

The company has always been projected into the future and, thanks to its intuition, has always been a pioneer in the search for and the implementation of innovative design solutions. Thanks to its in-house design and technical teams, the shipbuilder develops projects from the blank sheet, showing all its excellence and exclusiveness in cutting-edge projects and bespoke designed yachts, able to meet all possible requests.

CRN takes care of every pleasure vessel it creates even after it has been delivered, ensuring full support to its owner and its crew. The yard leads the owner step by step into a world where industrial processes and craftsmanship harmoniously and passionately blend together, with the aim of turning his desires into reality.

CRN is a member of Sybass (Superyacht Builder Association).

Navigo partner: Mondomarine

Cantieri Navali Campanella started shipbuilding on what is now the 35,000 square metre Mondomarine Shipyard in 1915. Since then, Cantieri Navali Campanella shipyard represents a centre of excellence in ship and yacht building as well as in repairing. Anchored to the shipyard’s strong heritage, Mondomarine was created to sign the custom-made yachts over 40 metres made in aluminium alloy and steel. Two years ago Mr. Falciai and Mr. Zambrini, whose intentions are to enhance the uniqueness of each Mondomarine design, acquired the brand and the production site.

While the commercial and marketing duties of Mondomarine have been moved to the prestigious location of Monaco, the new owner's will is to empower more and more the Savona shipyards with new vitality and modernity. Cantieri Navali Campanella is the ideal setting for the production, the repair and refit offer and the showroom’s activities.

Along with its tradition, Mondomarine carries on designing, engineering and building ships at the Savona Cantieri Navali Campanella production site still offering full-cycle production right from the cutting of the hull plates all the way to completion.

62 yachts have been built so far by Mondomarine in addition to those previously delivered by Cantieri Navali Campanella. During the last nine years Mondomarine has sold 21 yachts over 40 metres length, nine of which were over 50 metres in length.

The upcoming years will see several important events, such as:

  • The delivery, at the end of 2015, of the 40 metre SF40 Serenity to her owner (Designer Luca Vallebona – SFL Design).
  • Those, in 2016, of the 50 metre Superyacht M50 (Designer Hot Lab Yacht & Design) and of the M60S (Designer Luca Dini Design), the first 60 metre yacht built by the shipyard (all these projects are built entirely in aluminium, a distinguishing feature of Mondomarine’s projects)
  • In spring 2017, the delivery of the M40 Explorer (Designer HydroTec – Sergio Cutolo) and of the M54 (Designer Luca Dini Design) both with steel hulls

The highly custom builds, the increasing international attention and the guarantee of the Italian quality are just some of the pillars on which Mondomarine leverages its renewal while constantly seeking for continuous improvement.

Navigo partner: Perini Navi

A combination of technical brilliance and near-perfect aesthetics put Perini Navi’s yachts in a class of their own. Industrialist Fabio Perini, unable to find the boat that he wanted for himself – a large sailing yacht which could be handled by one person – built his own. Since its 1984 launch, the company has added 55 yachts – up to 88 metres and over in length – to its stable. With over 50% of the world market for sailing yachts over 45 metres, Perini Navi’s track record is impressive. In-house design has allowed Perini Navi to implement its own systems and inventions. The fame of the Perini Navi Group is as well related to the motor yachts featuring the Picchiotti Brand. This name is part of an Italian shipbuilding tradition with roots dating back to the 17th Century. Since the 1990’s Picchiotti has been part of the Perini Navi Group which has absorbed its experience and valuable traditions. The Picchiotti brand identifies today a class of motor yachts with great affinity to the sailing universe and attests a true innovative spirit, aspects that well match the Perini Navi Group philosophy.
