Construction progresses on ISA Yachts' second 65m Classic model

6 October 2026 • Written by Dea Jusufi

Italian yard ISA Yachts, a brand of Palumbo Superyachts, has announced that outfitting has begun on the second unit in its Classic 65m series at its facilities in Ancona, Italy. The unit was sold in 2025 to a European buyer, with delivery scheduled for 2028.

This project will follow in the footsteps of the first hull, the 65.5-metre launched as Resilience, with Enrico Gobbi – Team for Design leading exterior and interior design. Naval architecture is being handled by the shipyard’s technical department. At 64.8 metres, the new build is slightly smaller than her predecessor but boasts a greater interior volume of 1,420GT. 

The news comes at the same time as outfitting begins on the second unit of the ISA Unica 45M Steel model (pictured)

Accommodation will be across eight crew cabins and six guest cabins, including an owner's suite – complete with double fold-out balcony – that will make full use of the yacht's 12-metre beam. Interior details are undisclosed, though the yard did tease "contemporary style furniture" and "clean lines" as its focus.

Model highlights include a large swimming pool on the main deck and an expansive beach club, with the latter housing a lounge, bar, showers, gym, sauna, massage room and a "welcome zone" for embarking and disembarking guests.

Also worthy of note is the flydeck Jacuzzi and the new build's storage capacity, with two Jet Skis and two tenders supported by a hydraulic crane and sliding lateral system for hauling and launching.

Powered by twin MTU engines, the project is expected to reach a top speed of 17 knots and a range of 5,500 nautical miles at 11 knots.

Exclusive BOATPro data shows 13 ISA Yachts are currently under construction, including two units from its Unica 45M Steel series, scheduled for delivery in 2028 and 2029, respectively. The news comes on the same day that the yard announced that outfitting has begun on the second unit in its Unica 45M Steel series at its facilities in Ancona, Italy.
