On the occasion of the 2016 Cannes Yachting Festival 2016, Canados organized it first press conference since the acquisition.
Michel Karsenti and the management team of Canados Yachts were glad to give an overview of the situation of the shipyard that will have reached a totally debt free position by late October 2016, offering it a unique strength within the industry. Canados future has been explained and four new projects to be launched in 2017 have been released:
Gladiator 428 by Canados
The Gladiator 428 has been designed by Roman designer, Marco Casali in direct collaboration with Michel Karsenti and Gianluca Fanelli, the head of new project developments at Canados.
The task requested to Casali was particularly difficult to respect. Hewas asked to work on a highly technical hull in terms of architectureand the model had to incorporate:
-a modern and elegant design to immediately reach the status of modern-classic and respect the Canados values.
-Create a true day-boat, offering gigantic outdoor spaces and allowing for the “run-it-yourself” kind of clients, a true sociallay out.
-respect the Canados DNA with a luxury customizable interior.
-give the boat a strong Charisma to appeal to super-yacht owners for their tow-tenders or commuter boat and a level of luxury that will immediately position the model at the top of the market forfamily oriented clients.
Gladiator 822 by Canados
Also designed by Marco Casali, this sport boat offers a unique layout and will be available in various versions power/transmission packages offering top speeds ranging from 34 to 58 knots.
Casali’s task was not made easy by the strict guidelines he was given that reflect Canados’ typical flexibility. The 822 Gladiator had to be designed and engineered to be able to offer multiple interior layout, 3or 4 cabins, various main deck arrangements and either V-Drive transmission or Surface Drives for speed addicted clients.The 822 not only offers impressive interior volumes, she will also offer, bar none, the largest exterior decks in the category and a very new circulation concept between the aft deck, the main saloon and the fore deck which layout becomes a true extension of the interior and becomes a true social area. All this has been achieved thanks to the perfect interaction between the designer and the builder.
