1. What are the boats of the moment?
The best of the yachts just presented at the winter shows, Dusseldorf and Miami above all, but not only. From the roaring Cigarettes to the more Mediterranean 320 GT of Invictus, these are the 18 motor boats of the moment in the world.
2. New arrivals
A new category of yacht is born, the multispace of Cetera: the idea came thinking of a luxury villa, where all the “main rooms” are on the same level. In the same way, Cetera 60 takes up this configuration and adapts it to the world of boating. In 2020 we will see the first multispace yacht touching the water. This boat will be built in Italy, by the shipyard Fiart Mare.

9. Tell me which bow you have and I will tell you which boat you are
It’s about the bow. Now it has become a distinctive feature, every shipyard does it its own way and the boats become recognizable or unique thanks to her: we are talking about the bow. In this issue we analyse how design is evolving, starting from what for many might seem like a “detail.
10. What your boat says about your boat
