Just a year ago, at the Cannes Yachting Festival, Fiart presented the project for the new P54 yacht, designed by architect Stefano Pastrovich, the result of a research and development process capable of combining aesthetic and functional choices, that put space and livability, design, elegance and high performance on a cruise in the foreground.

A year later, the first unit sold is ready to cross the ocean to reach the Caribbean, the second unit will be delivered to the Côte d'Azur in the spring, while the third is already under production and will sail the Greek seas.

Fiart CEO Giancarlo di Luggo comments on the warm welcome given to the P54 by the public: "The immediate sale of the first units and the great interest shown by the market in the P54 are confirmation of the validity of this project. A yacht with great potential, the result of a great teamwork and the passion that drives Fiart along a course of excellence that is developing through the creation of a complete line of the P range".

At the same time, the Seawalker range, with the SW43 models and the recent SW35 and SW39, launched in 2021, continues its unstoppable sales success, which places Fiart among the main players in the sector.

In the 2021-2022 nautical season Fiart recorded a substantial increase in production and for the 2022-2023 season the shipyard expects a further increase which will be around 50 units, registering a sold out across the entire range.

This important result was also achieved thanks to a widespread expansion of the sales network - the debut in the United States in February - an increase in production capacity and an optimization of production processes.

Internationalization is certainly one of the key factors of this success: currently, 30% of production remains in Italy, while 70% goes beyond national borders.

Fiart belongs to a solid group, also operating in other sectors, with assets exceeding 500 million euros and revenues of approximately 100 million, whose division linked to the production of yachts produced revenues of approximately 27 million in 2022. Solidity and stability, which allow us to look to the future and the challenges of the coming years with confidence, and which allow the group to invest in research and development and at the same time pursue a green-oriented approach.

In fact, one of the main medium-term goals, alongside the increase in units produced, is the pursuit of ever greater environmental sustainability.

The use of renewable energies to cover the energy needs linked to production, with the installation of a photovoltaic system on the factory sheds, has already guaranteed for several years complete energy independence with the production of 300,000 kW/h per year and will be the starting point also in the preparation of the sustainability report, on the agenda for 2023.

In parallel with the production of yachts, Fiart also has a division dedicated to refitting in over 50,000 m2 of covered and uncovered spaces in the shipyard, capable of ensuring an efficient technical assistance service, checks and storage, including after-sales.

Another service offered by the Fiart family is Fiart Rent, the division entirely dedicated to chartering, which offers an exclusive experience to lovers of the sea and pleasure craft, which was also sold out in 2022.

The Fiart Rent fleet offers yachts from 33 to 58 feet, divided between the Classic line and the Seawalker range. In 2023, the inclusion of a new Seawalker 35 is expected, which will be added to the charter proposal.

Fiart looks to 2023 with great enthusiasm and with many projects in the pipeline, pleased to find the public and customers at the main trade fairs in the sector, the Miami Boat Show in February 2023, with the presentation of the Seawalker line to the American market, the Cannes Yachting Festival and the Genoa Boat Show in autumn, and at local fairs in Italy and in the rest of the world where it will be present through its partners.

In the spring, however, the Inside Fiart event will be staged, dedicated to the press, partners and customers, who will have the opportunity to touch the 2023-2024 news and projects firsthand and savor once again the passion and love that drives this historic brand.
