The Magellano 27M was designed by Jarkko Jämsén, who combined sharp industrial precision with softer, sculptural curves. The result is a yacht with reflective surfaces that capture and mirror the sea, sky, and light around it. - Basco Boating News - Written by Aziza | BASCO Team < Back Share Azimut Introduces the Magellano 27M Before the Cannes Yachting Festival 2025 Aziza | BASCO Team Sep 11, 2025 The Magellano 27M was designed by Jarkko Jämsén, who combined sharp industrial precision with softer, sculptural curves. The result is a yacht with reflective surfaces that capture and mirror the sea, sky, and light around it. Azimut has unveiled the Magellano 27M, the latest addition to its crossover Magellano series, ahead of the 2025 Cannes Yachting Festival. This model represents a new design philosophy, balancing modern architecture with timeless style to create a yacht that blends long-range performance with comfort and elegance. The Magellano 27M was designed by Jarkko Jämsén, who combined sharp industrial precision with softer, sculptural curves. The result is a yacht with reflective surfaces that capture and mirror the sea, sky, and light around it. Azimut’s vision for this model is to maintain a design that will remain relevant and contemporary for decades to come. On the inside, the Magellano 27M stands out for its architectural approach. Created by AMDL CIRCLE in collaboration with Michele De Lucchi, the main deck has been reimagined as a “loggia,” essentially a suspended terrace that bridges the indoors and outdoors. Natural light, warm wooden finishes, and subtle metallic accents create an inviting atmosphere designed for both relaxation and extended voyages. This model embodies Azimut’s aim of producing yachts capable of undertaking long journeys while maintaining comfort and luxury. Whether anchored in calm waters or cruising across longer routes, the Magellano 27M offers a blend of functionality and sophistication. Federico Lantero, head of product design at Azimut, highlighted that the Magellano 27M is built to preserve its contemporary appeal over time. The launch of the Magellano 27M marks the third generation in Azimut’s crossover series. It continues the brand’s pursuit of yachts that merge the spirit of exploration with high-end design. The official debut will take place at the 2026 Cannes Yachting Festival, but anticipation is already high after its early reveal.

- BASCO Boating Launches BoatSellPro™: An Innovative, Convenient and Hassle-Free Digital Boat Brokerage in Asia
BASCO Boating, the premier boating platform in Asia-Pacific, has launched BoatSellPro™, a groundbreaking programme that provides a comprehensive solution for boat sellers. - Basco Boating News - Written by BASCO Team < Back Share BASCO Boating Launches BoatSellPro™: An Innovative, Convenient and Hassle-Free Digital Boat Brokerage in Asia BASCO Team Apr 24, 2023 BASCO Boating, the premier boating platform in Asia-Pacific, has launched BoatSellPro™, a groundbreaking programme that provides a comprehensive solution for boat sellers. Media Release 24 April 2023 For Immediate Release BASCO Boating Launches BoatSellPro™: An Innovative, Convenient and Hassle-Free Digital Boat Brokerage in Asia BoatSellPro™ is available to boat sellers worldwide, offering a convenient way to list and sell their boats without having to see it locally The digital platform aims to eliminates confusion and high brokerage fees for boat sellers Co-founder and Director of BASCO Boating, Dione Schick in front of the Princess 56 Flybridge Singapore, 24 April 2023 - BASCO Boating , the premier boating platform in Asia-Pacific, has launched BoatSellPro™, a groundbreaking programme that provides a comprehensive solution for boat sellers. The launch of BoatSellPro™ coincides with the Singapore Yachting Festival and aims to help boat sellers achieve their goals of selling their boats 33% faster and at a significantly reduced cost, eliminating the need for expensive boat brokers and removing any ambiguity about the best way to sell their boat. According to Dione Schick, Co-founder and Director of BASCO Boating , the traditional boat brokerage model is often focused on selling boats to buyers at the highest profit, rather than truly assisting the boat owner in selling their boat. As a result, many boat sellers are left with confusion about the best way to sell their boat, a lack of clarity about what the boat is worth, and high brokerage fees. “When you sell your boat, there are a lot of questions like, what is the boat worth, what is the best pricing strategy and how long will it take to sell the boat. BASCO’s BoatSellPro™ solution can help you with all of that. We'll take care of all of the planning, pricing and promotion. This means that boat owners don't have to worry about anything except selling their boat. We’ll make sure every boat sale project goes smoothly, so that boat owners can focus on getting the best possible price for their boats” said Schick. The digital boat brokerage allows boat owners to list, market and sell their boats without an expensive boat broker having to see it locally, which makes it more convenient and accessible. Digital boat brokers can help boat owners sell their boat even if they are not in the same country as the buyer. People can list their boat for sale on the platform and buyers from anywhere in the world can see it and make an offer. BoatSellPro™ offers a complete step-by-step program that is tailored to meet the specific needs of boat sellers. The program includes a crystal clear and predictable 9-step roadmap that helps boat sellers understand the value of their boat, determine the best selling price, and market their boat effectively to potential buyers. The digital boat brokerage is the result of years of research and testing in the marine industry. Dione Schick has been working in the industry for over 35 years and has become obsessed with improving the boat sale results for boat owners. Through trial and error, Schick was able to piece together the methods that worked. This led to a significant transformation in her clients’ boat sale results, and people began approaching her, asking how they could achieve the same results. BoatSellPro™ is available to boat sellers worldwide, and interested boat owners, captains, and agents can book a call with the BASCO Boating team to learn more about the program and how it can help them sell their boats faster and at half the cost. With BoatSellPro™, BASCO Boating continues its mission to empower members of the boating community to lead a more fulfilling boating lifestyle with the most comprehensive boating knowledge and efficient boating services. BoatSellPro™ is just one of the many services offered by BASCO Boating, which provides everything for your boating lifestyle all in one place, including buying and selling boats, charters, parts, and accessories. About BASCO Boating BASCO is a boating platform in Asia Pacific that strives to address issues faced by the boating community in the traditional boat brokerage by investing time to understand clients and their needs so as to provide accurate information and present the best practices to help them achieve their innermost dreams about life at sea.

- How AI Is Transforming Yacht Production at Benetti
Benetti is introducing Artificial Intelligence into its production process, marking a major shift in how luxury yachts are built. - Basco Boating News - Written by Aziza | BASCO Team < Back Share How AI Is Transforming Yacht Production at Benetti Aziza | BASCO Team Jan 2, 2026 Benetti is introducing Artificial Intelligence into its production process, marking a major shift in how luxury yachts are built. The yacht industry is known for craftsmanship, precision, and detail. Now, it is stepping into a new era. Benetti is introducing Artificial Intelligence into its production process, marking a major shift in how luxury yachts are built. This is not about replacing tradition. It is about strengthening it. A Strategic Move Toward Smarter Production Benetti has partnered with the Quinn University Consortium to launch its first AI-driven production initiative. The project will begin at the Livorno shipyard by the end of the year and focuses on improving how work flows across the Custom Operations division. The first phase targets four core areas: Logistics Planning Production Engineering Safety These functions sit at the heart of yacht construction. Optimising them means faster processes, fewer errors, and more reliable outcomes. From Manual Processes to Data-Driven Decisions One of the biggest advantages of AI is its ability to handle complex data in real time. At Benetti, AI will support smarter planning, automate repetitive activities, and reduce the risk of human error in manual tasks. This shift allows teams to spend less time on routine processing and more time on high-value work that requires expertise and craftsmanship. The result is better decision-making, smoother operations, and higher overall quality. Building on Proven Innovation This new initiative builds on an earlier collaboration between Benetti and the Quinn Consortium. From 2022 to 2024, both teams worked on synchronising logistics through better supply chain integration. That project created a strong data foundation. It also revealed clear opportunities where AI could make a meaningful impact. The insights gathered during that phase are now being turned into practical solutions inside the shipyard. Practical AI Tools with Real Impact Several AI-based systems are already planned for implementation. One example is the automation of material booking and incoming delivery controls. This system aligns material arrivals with yacht production schedules and available warehouse space, reducing delays and inefficiencies. Another key development is a Three-Year Plan Simulator. This tool can process complex scenarios, test different production strategies, and support continuous improvement across key performance indicators. These are not experimental ideas. They are practical tools designed to improve daily operations. A Future-Ready Production Model For Benetti, AI is not just about efficiency. It is about long-term sustainability and resilience. By combining advanced technology with skilled people and refined processes, the company is building a production model that is flexible, scalable, and ready for future challenges. Innovation has always been part of Benetti’s DNA. This move confirms its commitment to leading the yacht industry into a smarter, more connected future, while preserving the excellence that defines the brand.
