Side by side in the water for the firs time: the brand new ClubSwan80 and the Persico60', a cutting-edge motoryacht
starting afresh with a design that is focussed on a high average speed that doesn’t rattle the teeth out of the sailors’ mouths, but from concept is also to be built using Persico’s automated approach. The plan is that developing this into a highly accurate series build at a good cost point can be realised. With this and the Fly40, Persico is looking to be able to turn the marine industry on its head and move closer to the automotive industry, where a production boat can be built to as high, if not higher quality and reliability than a bespoke build by the best team of guys you can muster. Reducing unnecessary materials by increasing accuracy makes absolute sense, even from an environmental sustainability point of view. That is only achievable through automation, which is Persico Group’s bread and butter. In the next 12months wemay see a manufacturing revolution in the top end of
themarine industry. There are those who say they used to love the lofting process froma set of offsets, and handmaking tools froma stack of wood. But their knees see that as nothingmore than nostalgia.
New projects Persico Marine has presented many interesting novelties in recent months. ‘Recently we saw two of our most innovative projects side by side in the water for the first time: the brand new ClubSwan80, a magnificent sailboat, and the Persico60' a cutting-edge motoryacht’, explains Marcello Persico. ‘The eternal competition between wind and engine, both designed by two of the most renowned naval architects, the ClubSwan80 by Juan Kouyoumdjian, the Persico60’ by Germán Mani Frers. The Persico60’ is a unique “toys carrier fast powerboat”, a perfect day-boat where six to 12 guests can motor 45knts safely,
bringing along two large jet-skis, a couple of sea bobs and SUPs, while being also able to relax and stay connected to the world thanks to the info-tainment system on the 55” screen. It’s an evolution of the classical tender, a “shadow” yacht, agile, versatile and fast. ‘Each of these boats is unique in
concept, style, and development. We have spent months of effort and dedication, proudly arriving at the final result.’ That’s not all, as PersicoMarine has
announced a partnership with the world- renowned design studio Zagato that will bring to themarket the very first hyperboat. ‘The ultimate advance-composite
technology, the design and finishing of a million-euro supercar and a new propulsion that looks and definitely ismore similar to that of a jet plane, and it glides on water in total silence… it will be hyper in every detail,’ saysMarcello Persico.

The new Fly40 foiler takes Persico’s automated manufacturing approach to the next level. This is a boat that couldn’t be built by hand, not even by the world’s best boatbuilders
