Cantiere delle Marche has won the 2023 World Superyacht Awards with the stunning M/Y Acala, in the category displacement motor yachts 499gt and below, 40m to 44.9m.

At 42m, Acala is the epitome of an ocean-going explorer yacht: a vessel that exudes strength, dependability, comfort, and elegance. She serves as a remarkable culmination of her Owner's extensive yachting expertise, Cantiere delle Marche's mastery in constructing exceptional explorer yachts, Horacio Bozzo's meticulous exterior design, and Simon Hamui's impressive interior design and decoration prowess.

"The judges admired Acala's rugged good looks, her well-sized engines that provide a top speed of 15.3 knots and a 7,506-nautical- mile range at 10 knots, excellent crew areas, a superb diving store and her elegant and modern interior. Their summary was that this is a true explorer yacht, well conceived and built, that perfectly met all of her owner's needs. As such, she is an extremely deserving winner."
