The Flexplorer 165, the shipyard’s largest explorer yacht to date, exemplifies a testament to Cantiere delle Marche’s commitment to excellence.

“The news of the sale of the sixth explorer yacht in three months needs no further comment! Amidst the ebb and flow of the nautical industry, we are reaping the rewards of our enduring commitment. With each passing year, we have sown the seeds of quality, precision, and unmatched expertise. Today, the sale of the Flexplorer 165 represents a new chapter in Cantiere delle Marche prowess,” says Vasco Buonpensiere, co-founder and CEO of Cantiere delle Marche.

“While the tide of the nautical market is in descent, Cantiere delle Marche remains steadfast, weathering every challenge with grace and determination. It is plain to see that we are actually bucking the trend with commercial successes that come at an impressive pace for a shipyard of our size,” Buonpensiere maintains. “When the market goes down, only the best and most reliable products stand the test of a crisis. We can proudly say that our explorer yachts have earned a great reputation for their ingrained quality and the ingenuity of their design.”

“What sets the Flexplorer 165 apart is not just her breathtaking design or state-of-the-art features, but the shipyard’s values she embodies,” adds Ennio Cecchini, the company’s co-founder and President. With a total length shy of 49.90 metres, a beam of 9 metres, and a Gross Tonnage shy of 500GT, the Flexplorer 165 features the series’s unmistakable exterior design by Sergio Cutolo/Hydro Tec that will also develop the yacht’s naval architecture and complex engineering. The yacht interiors by Hus studio will embody their signature style of understated elegance, a timeless design that transcends fleeting trends and stands the test of time. The Flexplorer 165 will feature an astonishingly large and powerful A-frame crane with a lifting capacity of above 4.5 tone to handle a large tender and multiple water-toys. The yacht will be propelled by twin Caterpillar C32 Acert, 970kW each.

The Owner has already decided that Flexplorer 165 will be offered on the charter market. With her ocean-going capabilities, extraordinary long-range endurance, reliability and comfort, this vessel will allow charterers to live an experience that goes beyond the reach of the most luxury cruising.

More information on the project will be delivered as soon as possible. Stay tuned!
