CDM’S 102’ DARWIN
NO.2 OF FOUR UNDER CONTRACT Come early May in Ancona, Italy the Cantiere Delle Marche team will be celebrating the launch of their latest Darwin Class explorer, ahead of a further delivery of the 108’ flagship of their Nauta Air series designed by Nauta Yachts later in the season. The new Explorer Yacht Darwin Class M/Y Babbo, 102’ of steel and aluminum, will be officially presented at Cannes show in September. This unit’s layout is particularly suited for larger groups of guests with a great attention paid to toys and to the diving center, situated in the vast fully equipped garage that measures almost 270sqft (25sqm). As in the sistership M/Y Acala presented at the latest Fort Lauderdale Yacht Show, the aft platform will store a 16’ 6” (5m) tender while the upper deck will carry the main 20’ 7” (6.30m) tender. A special management team, which involved the experienced captain Marc Maudet and the staff at CdM, were dedicated to the yacht's design and build. Vasco Buonpensiere and Ennio

Cecchini, the highly personable and experienced co-founders of CDM, were united in declaring: “The success of our Darwin Class 102 is the proof of how a product developed by identifying a very specific market demand can give great commercial satisfaction, even in difficult times like these. There are now four Darwin Class 102 sold and this shows that CdM continues not only to be the absolute reference for all those who want to own a real Explorer yacht, but also to be once again a shipyard that listens and perfectly translates the real needs of yachtsmen in every corner of the world.” MY Babbo features three decks, a 244 GT volume, and the factor that has contributed so much to CDM’s success: the maintenance of quality finishes and the luxury typical of the superyacht world with exquisite engineering and reliability. If you haven’t yet visited a CDM yacht or the shipyard we highly recommend it, we promise you won’t be disappointed! www.cantieredellemarche.it
