24 of the best luxury yachts heading to the Cannes Yachting Festival 2017

Andiamo

At 47.6 metres LOA, Andiamo is likely to be one of the biggest yachts on display at the 2017 Cannes Yachting Festival. Launched by Italian yard Baglietto in June and currently undergoing sea trials, she was styled inside and out by Francesco Paszkowski. Star features include her transatlantic cruising range when cruising at 12 knots, which is made possible by twin 2,012hp MTU 12V4000 M63 diesel engines drawing on a total fuel capacity of 80,000 litres.

Clorinda

Swooping exterior styling and equally dramatic 34-knot performance make Clorinda one of our stars of Cannes 2017. Launched by Palumbo Group in July, this 36.45 metre cruiser is historically significant as the first ISA yacht to be completed since the Ancona-based yard was acquired in August 2016. She also features an unconventional layout, with the indoor dining area situated aft of the main-deck lounge.

E Vai

This lightweight 25.25 metre carbon fibre yacht from Italian yard Mylius is sure to turn the heads of sailing aficionados visiting this year’s Cannes show. Hull number three in the yard’s flagship Mylius 76 range, E Vai displaces just 30 tonnes and boasts a sleek flush-deck design by Alberto Simeone.

Galego

Hull number three in the Darwin 102 series of compact explorer yachts, Galego features several customisations on the standard Hydro Tec design, such as 2.18 metre headroom and an upper deck gym. Built by Italian yard Cantiere delle Marche from a steel hull and aluminium superstructure and launched in Ancona in April, she will be getting her public debut at Cannes 2017, where visitors will hope to catch a glimpse of her warm and welcoming Pierluigi Floris interiors.

Kalliente

The first in a new range of Ilumen yachts from Italian yard Dominator, Kalliente will make her public debut at the 2017 Cannes Yachting Festival. Alberto Mancini created the interior and exterior styling for this bright and airy yacht, which features a main-deck master cabin that is absolutely flooded in natural light, while a sporty top speed of 21 knots is made possible by a pair of 1,200hp MAN V8 diesel engines.

Maxima

Hull number two in the Filippetti Navetta 26 series, Maxima will be making her worldwide debut at Cannes 2017. Six years have passed since the launch of her sister ship Sakata and the Italian yard has been busy adding several new features including a raised pilothouse and a forward-facing dining area on the main deck, which promises great views out to sea.

Mystere

The sunset sea trials are a real VIP highlight of the Cannes Yachting Festival, and with her scorching top speed of 48 knots, Mystere is sure to be the hottest invite at this year’s show. Launched by Italian yard Otam back in March as hull number four in the Millennium 80HT series, her staggering turn of pace is made possible by a twin 2,600hp MTU 16V2000 M94 diesel engine set-up twinned to Arneson surface drives.

Outer Reef Classic 630

It’s not all about the European yards, however, with a number of American builders making the journey across the Atlantic for the Cannes Yachting Festival. One of the most notable is Outer Reef Yachts, which is giving a European debut to the Classic 630. This 19.23 metre trawler is the epitome of a pocket superyacht, with three generous cabins and upper deck tender storage cleverly incorporated into its compact dimensions. What's more, Outer Reef can modify the design Classic 630 to suit an owner's needs, with the aft deck, saloon, galley and cockpit all customisable.

Skyler

The Cannes Yachting Festival wouldn’t be complete without a big new yacht from Italian boatbuilding giant Benetti. The Fast 125 range has stolen the show at Cannes for the past two years with the debuts of Iron Man and Constance Joy, and with hull number three Skyler, the yard is hoping to complete the hat-trick. Subtly updated with clever superstructure modifications, this highly sensuous 38 metre yacht features silk carpets and a sprung floor in the dining room.
