A96 by Arcadia Yachts at the 2024 Monaco Yacht Show

Arcadia Yachts is showcasing the second unit of A96, named best motoryacht of the year by the Robb Report, from September 25 to 28 in Monaco.

This 30-metre yacht offering an on-board lifestyle that strikes a balance between discretion, contact with nature and conviviality, at the same time as delivering a comfortable cruising experience, continues to meet with approval, confirming that this is the ideal boat for the modern owner.

Interest continues unabated in A96, which was also named best motoryacht of 2024 by the Robb Report. That’s why the shipyard based on the Sorrento coast has decided to exhibit the boat at the Superyacht Show held in Monaco from September 25 to 28.

The many plus points of this 30-metre yacht with five cabins include some of the shipyard’s strengths, which have been emphasised and strengthened on this boat. A good example is the availability of a slow cruising mode that brings together contact with nature, a high level of comfort and extremely versatile spaces. From the stern swim platform to the bow, the settings flow seamlessly into one another, allowing the owners to choose between conviviality, discretion and privacy, while the main lounges have been designed to embrace versatility, thanks in part to side and aft walls that transform these spaces into open-air settings. The complete separation of guest and crew flows, the fully appointed pantry and, optionally, a second day toilet on the Upper Deck ensure high service standards. 

The interiors featuring pale and neutral colours, with contrasting dark or metallic elements, are the result of collaboration between Igor Lobanov and the shipyard. The spaces are decorated with natural, eco-friendly materials, the design embraces soft lines and furnishings with a pleasing handfeel, and the sleek curves and dark lacquered surfaces conjure up an Art Deco mood.

The yard’s CEO Ugo Pellegrino commented: “A96 is highly appreciated all over the world by owners who are increasingly attracted to an unhurried cruising style that’s based on an environmentally sustainable approach and offers a versatile on-board lifestyle centred around deep wellbeing, starting with a more relaxed pace of life. We’re happy to have tapped into the needs expressed by the industry and charted a new course for our company and the market in general, one that in some way underscores the desire for cruising as an experience, a source of pleasure and wellbeing and a stimulus for all five senses, designed to point up the preferences of the owner and their guests about how to enjoy the boat at different times during the day. We might say that A96 is the best representation of the concept of ARCADIA, so dear to the ancient Greeks, because in a certain sense this is a boat that wants to offer an idyllic, ideal world, even when out to sea.
