Ancasta International Boat Sales will be showcasing an exciting selection of new and award-winning yachts, motorboats and catamarans at the 2023 boot Düsseldorf boat show (21-29 January 2023).
“boot Dusseldorf is a magnificent show, and this year we’ve got something for everyone,” says Will Blair, Ancasta’s Group Marketing Director.
“With over 2,000 exhibitors in 16 giant halls, virtually every boating brand on the planet will be on display, so if someone is looking to purchase, there is no better venue to compare brands and models.
“We’ll be representing an extensive range of impressive yachts and powerboats and strongly encourage anyone who is serious about buying to visit the show and book an appointment with us.”
The stellar line up includes the very best from BeneteauPower & Sail, Lagoon Catamaran, Prestige Motor Yachts, Bluegame and Sanlorenzo.
“In addition to the fantastic models we’ve got available to view, visitors will also be able to get a first glance at a full-size mock-up of the new CNB 78 interior, as well as chat to the teams at McConaghy Multihulls and Sanlorenzo to discuss the design and build of their next, truly customised, sailing or power boat.”
Beneteau Sail
From Beneteau Sail, and hot on the heels of it winning Performance Yacht of the Year at the British Yachting Awards, is the Beneteau First 36.
Perfectly optimised for short-handed sailing, the First 36 is a high-performance boat owing to its very high sail area/displacement coefficient and balanced nautical design. A standard
aluminium mast, cast iron keel and 2.25m draught have been chosen to offer the best combination of performance and ease of handling, whether on the racecourse or on family day-sailing trips.
Joining the First 36 will be the First 27 and 44, the First Yacht 53, Beneteau Oceanis 30.1, 34.1, 40.1, 46.1 and 51.1, and the elegant and sophisticated Oceanis Yacht 60.
Beneteau Power
Focusing on practical and easy living, the recently launched Swift Trawler 48 will be leading the fleet from Beneteau Power. Panoramic views are afforded from the 20 sqm flybridge, while the aft cockpit can accommodate a folding table and two director’s chairs which, together with the large bench seat, maximise the indoor/outdoor living space.
The hull has been optimised to provide a boat that is both comfortable and efficient. The slender bow is remarkably seaworthy, which reduces fuel consumption to give 600 nautical miles of range at nine knots and makes sailing safer.
The Swift Trawler 48 will be accompanied by Beneteau Power’s Gran Turismo 36 and 46, as well as the Grand Trawler 62.
Lagoon Catamarans
Designed with families in mind, the spacious Lagoon 46 makes living onboard easy-going and extremely pleasurable. The mast is stepped further aft, allowing for a larger and more powerful self-tacking jib, and a smaller and easier to handle mainsail. Boasting generous sized living spaces with elegant style, the whole family will enjoy sailing on this luxury catamaran.
Prestige Motor Yachts
Launched at the recent Cannes Yachting Festival, the Prestige M48 is the first power catamaran from Prestige Yachts. Taller than other power cats on the market, the M48 has a deep bridge deck linking the two hulls, promoting a similar look and feel as a monohull below deck, creating generous, brightly lit refined living spaces and full beam cabins, affording the ultimate in comfort.
Twin 320hp Volvo Penta D4s give the Prestige M48 a maximum speed of 20 knots with the reduced wet surface area of this multihull design making it 20 per cent more efficient than a similar- sized monohull, giving a range of 250nm at 18 knots or 600nm at 8 knots from the 1,200-litre tank.
Prestige will also be showcasing its S-Line 520S and the X60 from its X-Line.
Bluegame
A brand of Sanlorenzo, Bluegame offers yachtsmen a totally new style of living life at sea, reinventing traditional layouts. Highly customisable, the designs are both disruptive and innovative, creating unprecedented, multifunctional living spaces combined with extraordinary seaworthiness.
The Bluegame BG54, BG72 and BGX60 will be on display throughout the show, with the team ready to discuss just how customisable these yachts can be to meet an individual owner’s tastes and requirements.
Sanlorenzo
From the Italian shipyard’s semi-displacement range and designed with the alfresco lifestyle in mind, the 24m Sanlorenzo SD90 has a large window in the saloon which can remain open creating a continuous connection with the cockpit, which is augmented by the continuity of the natural flooring between the two areas, while the sizeable bow provides a generous open space.
With sustainability in mind, the interior by Patricia Urquiloa features many eco-focused elements including panelling made from recycled paper on the lower deck and every appliance on board having been carefully chosen for the highest quality and lowest consumption, including specialised materials for reducing electric load.
An optimised hull design coupled with hybrid propulsion, enables the SD90 to reach top speeds of 17 knots with a fuel capacity of 13,000 litres.
