At Azimut’s shipyard in Viareggio, Italy, the first unit of the Grande 30M has been launched.
According to the yard, this marks a moment of collective pride for everyone involved in the project.
The Grande 30M is said to combine contemporary design with cutting-edge technology. For the first time, designer Alberto Mancini and the studio m²atelier have joined forces: Mancini is responsible for the yacht’s sleek exterior lines, while m²atelier designed the interiors with its distinctive architectural vision.
From a technical perspective, the Grande 30M is, according to the manufacturer, a milestone as the first yacht to feature the new Rolls-Royce mtu propulsion system. This combines mtu engines with POD technology and reportedly delivers a 15 percent increase in efficiency compared to traditional shaft line systems, significantly reducing fuel consumption and CO₂ emissions.
The Grande 30M will make her premiere at the Cannes Yachting Festival 2025.
