Cannes 2024 – Sirena 48 Hybrid | 16 m
We open with a trawler, a type of hull that always knows how to have its own appeal, however modern and contemporary in design it may be.
And, Sirena Yachts, offers one that is decidedly innovative, as well as hybrid.
It is, indeed, the Sirena 48 Hybrid, a cruiser that winks at sustainability, capable of cruising in hybrid up to 350 miles, as well as proceeding in total silence in full-electric mode.
Sustainable charm aside, the new Sirena is also a hull that knows its stuff, with a pleasant and well thought-out design, capable of devoting as much space to the exterior as to the interior, where 3 cabins can accommodate up to 6 people, plus one, eventually, should one opt for a crew cabin.

Solaris Power 60 Open | 18.2 m
Global debut at the Cannes Yachting Festival for Solaris Power’s newest addition, the 60 Open.
Sleek, elegant, and strong with engines ranging from 1,200 to 1,370 horsepower, Solaris’ new open is a hull that looks to comfort and elegance, externally as well as internally.
In fact, two large sundecks on deck, a large open-air lounge and between the two and three interior cabins make it a hull that knows how to look at cruising needs as well as day-cruiser needs, all condensed on a hull that makes aesthetics one of its many strengths.
A boat to keep in mind among spacious and versatile open boats.

The latter part well demonstrated by the on-board layout, which looks in no small part at occasions for relaxation as well as those dedicated to conviviality, whether these are outdoors or sheltered from the elements.

Quickly said, her 28.6 x 7.6 meters are thus exploited to the full to offer, at the same time, several exceptional salons and lounges and 5 VIP cabins, guaranteeing maximum comfort for the 10 people who will get to stay overnight on board.
In parallel, the range also wants to raise the bar in the game, offering as much as 2,000 nautical miles of cruising range… In short, Extra seeks, with the new X96, the semi-definitive platform for star cruising. To learn more, discover our in-depth article here!
