Exploring the Confines of the Seas

“This new boat in the CdM Nauta Air series answers to a very specific market demand with a product whose features are unmatched: an overengineered, long-range three-deck displacement hull yacht featuring about 20% more volume than the competition, with both exterior and interior spaces inspired by the latest trends in Italian yachting and industrial design. Once again, Cantiere delle Marche brought its clients beyond traditional yachting and introduced them to a revolutionary world of sense, excitement and unending possibility.”
Vasco Buonpensiere, CdM’s Sales Director.

For Cantiere delle Marche (CdM), it all begins with the person whom the ship is built for. Their wishes become the compass that drives the shipyard to discover and materialize the perfect yacht. (CdM) Nauta Air 108' "Narvalo"—like the rest of the fleet—is a personalized vessel; the shipping company works tirelessly along its owners until they achieve the ideal customization.

This vessel is the 100ft flagship yacht of the Italian shipyard Cantiere delle Marche (CdM), an explorer built with steel and aluminum, masterfully designed for family vacations in shallow waters (thanks to its narrow draft), as well as more challenging adventures in the most defiant oceans. The possibilities are endless, given the yacht’s remarkable range of 5,500 mN @ 9 knots.

 

 

 

 

 

 

              

The vessel was designed by the prestigious Milan studio Nauta Design, which boasts a long collaborative history with some of the most renowned shipbuilders in the world. The yacht displays an innovating balance between firmness, elegance, volume, and design. CdM and Nauta Design share the vision of a motor yacht defined by the optimized relationship between the interior and the exterior spaces, by giving the same importance and priority to the outdoor living as well as the indoor living, and to emphasize the seamless connection between them.

This mega-yacht comes with a wide-ranging number of features to maximize comfort and the overall ship’s autonomy during long cruising voyages. The upper deck, boasting over 70 m2 of space, becomes a grand observatory towards the sea. It is furnished with a sundeck and a hydro-massage pool located at the stern. With a 7.5m beam, this yacht boasts a comfortable layout that includes a full beam master cabin on the main deck.

Each ambient is very well proportioned. The main deck is dedicated to social life; furniture can be rearranged to cover any requirements that may arise, let it be in the dining area, or the rest of the recreational spaces. It also features a true beach club with which the designer managed to emphasize direct contact with the sea for easier and more pleasant diving and swimming.

From the cozy exterior saloon on the aft part of the main deck, guests can access the beautiful saloon, lit by very ample side windows allowing for natural light flooding. It is perfect for board games, reading on the comfortable couches and family time. A spacious dining area will be the ideal location to enjoy a delicious supper. The yacht has been exquisitely designed and furnished by leading Italian firms such as Minotti, Cassina, Bauline, Moroso, and Loro Piana.

 

 

 

 

 

The ship’s LED lighting system was provided by Altraluca. Plus, the stern staircase is a distinctive and revolutionary feature in this yacht due to its innovative concept. There are five cabins—one main suite with its own bathroom and working space, and four guest cabins, all of unusual size for this type of yacht, with an extraordinarily large foyer that encourages guests to relax.

On the lower deck, you find the crew area with three double cabins. This place includes ample storage spaces for provisions, making this vessel capable of staying at sea for long periods of time while completely stocked.

The garage has enough capacity to store a variety of equipment, accesories and smaller vehicles to practice water sports. The naval architecture of the CdM Nauta Air 108’ “Narvalo” was overseen by Hydrotech. Its command center is equipped with state-of-the-art GPS and navigation systems.

In addition, the CdM Nauta Air 108’ “Narvalo” received the prestigious award 'ISS Leadership and Design Award 2016 in the “Best Interior Design” category, and won at BOAT’s World Superyacht Awards 2017 with the “Judges' Special Award for Quality & Value,” as well as a mention in their top 10 superyacht staircases.  Zarpo Yachts is the official distributor of Cantiere delle Marche in Mexico.
