The Cannes Yachting Festival may be over, but the conversations, ideas and new opportunities continue.
From 8 to 13 September, the Istion Yachting team was in Cannes for a week of yacht visits, meetings and reconnecting with partners from across the industry. As official dealers for leading yacht brands, it was a valuable opportunity to get closer to the latest models and strengthen the relationships behind them.
A Closer Look at What’s Next
Among the highlights were Excess Catamarans, with the Excess 11 Rider’s Edition, Excess 13 and Excess 14 offering a closer look at the brand’s distinctive combination of sailing performance, contemporary design and comfort.
We also had the opportunity to spend time with CNB Yachts, exploring the CNB 62 and CNB 78, and with Wider, discovering the impressive WiderCat 92 and its innovative approach to modern yacht design.
Cannes also gave us a first look at some of the season’s most anticipated new arrivals, including the Lagoon 47, presented in World Premiere, as well as Fountaine Pajot’s new FP48, FP55 and FPY70S. These premieres offered an exciting glimpse into where the next generation of cruising is heading.
But Cannes was about more than the yachts on display.
Where Partnerships Take Shape
Face-to-face meetings with our partners gave us the chance to exchange ideas, discuss new models and explore what is ahead for yacht ownership and charter investment.
These relationships are an important part of how we work. Knowing the brands, their yachts and the people behind them allows us to offer our clients informed guidance when choosing their next yacht.
We leave Cannes with fresh inspiration, stronger collaborations and new possibilities to share with our clients.
