New Designs
The Italy-based builder Tecnomar has unveiled the details of their latest forward-thinking concept: a 40.07-metre superyacht by the name of Tecnomar Cat133 FT, which features an
interior and exterior design courtesy of The Italian Sea Group.This design by Tecnomar draws inspiration from another one of the company’s creations, namely the 43.5-metre yacht
This Is It, and manages to recreate a similar blueprint but for a smaller catamaran in the 499 GT volume class.
As many as 10 guests can be accommodated onboard the yacht Tecnomar Cat133, which has been augmented to enhance the exterior spaces so that they are able to reach an impressively
roomy 300-square-metres despite the yacht’s 40-metre length. One of the most standout upgrades is the decision to elevate the Tecnomar Cat133’s stern by leveraging her two hulls,
as well as including two internal wings and foldable side doors in order to construct an expansive swimming platform with the ability to

After almost five years in development, and six months of rigorous testing, the new F45 is ready to dramatically reduce the world of stabiliser power consumption! The first, patent
pending system by Quantum Marine Stabilizers was installed in March 2024, on a 47-metre Feadship refit.
This new F45 Electric/Hydraulic Hybrid Power System represents a big step forward in marine stabilisation, especially for those concerned about carbon footprints, energy
conservation and sustainability. John Allen, Quantum CEO comments on this new revolutionary technology:
ADVANTAGES
• Reduces power consumption- up to 60% - 80%
By reconfiguring and simplifying the design, this system is able to use power as needed, when needed versus a traditional system that must remain running at 40% capacity, even at
idle. Results show, the overall cost to run the system is reduced by 60% at zero speed and 80% recovery in underway mode, representing enormous savings.

Maverick, the second in Cantiere delle Marche’s Flexplorer series, is fast approaching completion at the shipyard in Ancona. Owned by Tom Schröder, Top Gun aficionado and now
principal shareholder in the shipyard, the 44-metre explorer yacht has been designed and built expressly for a round-the-world tour.When Tom Schröder was first introduced to
Cantiere delle Marche in 2019 at the Cannes Yachting Festival, he was particularly struck by the onboard technical spaces. “I could see how well everything had been put together
and that impressed me,” says the German-born entrepreneur. “I thought that sooner or later I wanted to own a CdM.” A year later he attended the launch of Aurelia, the first
Flexplorer, and a few months after that he signed the contract for Maverick in the midst of the pandemic. Little did he know at the time that he would end up investing in the
company.“Maverick had been in construction for a year
