Cannes' finest brokerage yachts

More prestigious than ever, the Cannes International Boat and Yacht Show adorned itself for its 30th anniversary with all its finery to invite its 65.000 visitors (up 19% compared to 2006) to dream and escape. With more than 200 new models on display for the first time ever, Cannes has confirmed its position as Europe’s leading in-water show. Hosting, for the 2nd consecutive year, ever more magnificent boats, Port Pierre Canto met with great success, both among the visitors and the brokers, who represented the majority of the exhibitors. <img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/123221/image/large-2006c5ebff188f8cc1fba2603c08dbc2.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/123221">An International Exhibition The show welcomed the key players in pleasure boating and luxury yachting from all over the world: Europe, United States, Asia, Middle East &amp; Oceania. In all, 26 nations were present at the event now known worldwide. Close to 70% of the exhibitors and 87% of the boats on display came from abroad. The visitors, trade professionals and private individuals alike, also appeared to be increasingly cosmopolitan, with a significant rise in the presence of foreigners –close to 50% compared to 30% in 2006, 13% in 2004 and 6% in 2000– with the Eastern European countries, particularly Russia, strongly represented. <img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/123222/image/large-dc882f8e5e86deebfa3874757292ded3.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/123222">Port Pierre Canto, a second year marked by success Appearing for the first time at the 2006 show, the brokerage section seems to have found its place, as shown by the satisfaction expressed by all the Port Pierre Canto exhibitors: the customers were there in numbers and business was negotiated. Reminder of the figures for the 30th Cannes International Boat and Yacht Show: - 585 boats in water (Vieux Port + Port Canto), 87% came from abroad - 200 new models - 480 exhibitors, 70% were from abroad - 80,000 m² of exhibition space<img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/123223/image/large-c6ec47cee2f462340545287de076a660.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/123223">The Mangusta Fancy One and the CRN <a href="#managed-by-application" data-legacy="true" data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/768">Kanaloa</a>, both showed by Camper &amp; Nicholsons<img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/123224/image/large-0fd913ae4525b607dd584fd22f3bb27a.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/123224">Toby Maclaurin of Cavendish White<img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/123225/image/large-b0404770ba5d680791402e643a2f698f.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/123225"><img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/123226/image/large-e070c6c9958686ff27886d190e1cb90e.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/123226">Martin Bott of Yachting Partners International<img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/123227/image/large-26e2eab0df3f11c6491821035575155f.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/123227">The new CRN 43 <a href="#managed-by-application" data-legacy="true" data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/540">Emerald Star</a><img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/123228/image/large-a56b43d696af2dc224241f6a8122e9ec.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/123228"><img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/123229/image/large-860817e90ffecabb89d13a9da54d121e.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/123229">Remco Immink of <a href="#managed-by-application" data-legacy="true" data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/291">Ciris Capital</a><img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/123230/image/large-fff926f661ba1aac57de594c66840edf.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/123230">The new Maiora 38 <a href="#managed-by-application" data-legacy="true" data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/1299">Melina C</a> and the new Baglietto <a href="#managed-by-application" data-legacy="true" data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/572">B-17</a><img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/123231/image/large-eafdc5434600621ac5e253ac5faacdc5.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/123231">David Price of BCR Yachts onboard <a href="#managed-by-application" data-legacy="true" data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/539">Wally B</a><img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/123232/image/large-0180aae0993d784821ba7302678a71e9.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/123232"><a href="#managed-by-application" data-legacy="true" data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/1212">Gaja</a>, <a href="#managed-by-application" data-legacy="true" data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/1253">Waverunner</a> and the Lazzara LSX<img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/123233/image/large-d4060294e0117927efdc5e29cbcd0c47.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/123233"><img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/123234/image/large-061a2d4aaabc6292fc4c8e479f838919.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/123234">Luca Sbisa of Fraser Yachts onboard the San Lorenzo Atlantica Atlantica<img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/123235/image/large-27f31d1df4f46e617822ad50442e2182.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/123235">The new Ocea Commuter 108 <a href="#managed-by-application" data-legacy="true" data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/753">Marhaba</a><img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/123236/image/large-e1e62fb7da4c8ab16a93e808d35f868c.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/123236"><img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/123237/image/large-6571deefd0dca0431cad308ba9a734e9.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/123237">Photo credit: <a target="_blank" href="https://www.superyachtphoto.com">Merijn de Waard / Yacht-Images.com</a>

The Cannes International Boat and Yacht Show 2007

Cavendish White will be unveiling the latest range of super yachts, known as Leviathan Yachts, at this year's Monaco Yacht Show, 19 -22 September. The independently owned British company has joined forces with US-based Mega Yacht Group to build the yachts, varying in length from 45 - 150 metres, in China. The first fruit of the collaboration, Project <a href="#managed-by-application" data-legacy="true" data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/1370">Midas</a> started steel cutting in July at the Nanhua High Speed Engineering facility in central South East China. Built to Lloyds specifications and MCA compliant, the 68 metre Leviathan will be delivered in autumn 2009. Models and plans of a range of Leviathan Yachts will be on display at Cave! ndish White's stand during the show, stand no: TQT17 The advantages of building super yachts in China are numerous: the workforce is one of the most skilled and economic in the world: there is minimal waiting time for building slots; actual construction times are considerably quicker than in European shipyards and the price of building a super yacht is significantly lower than anywhere else in the world. Project Midas has a price tag of US $53,000,000. Cavendish White will also be offering an eclectic selection of yachts for sale at the show, including the brand new 51.9 metre <a href="#managed-by-application" data-legacy="true" data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/1090">O'Ptasia</a>.
