On August 26 at 6:00 AM, Comar Yachts proudly launched its new flagship, the C-Cat 65, marking an important milestone for the Italian shipyard. Measuring 21 meters in length and 9.20 meters in width, this maxi catamaran was carefully lifted by crane and touched the water for the very first time. As it descended into the sea, its sleek, streamlined, and rounded lines were revealed in full — the expression of a design created to combine speed, comfort, and elegance.
The yacht’s golden-sand hull immediately captured attention. As dawn broke, its warm tone shimmered against the water, becoming increasingly luminous as the sun rose higher, a fitting symbol of both a new beginning and a proud achievement for the Fiumicino-based yard.
“This yacht is the result of the work of around fifty people, who dedicated approximately 40,000 hours over the last two years, along with more than 4,000 hours of project development,” explained Massimo Guardigli of Comar Yachts. “Our Technical Office, designer Enrico Contreas, the engineering firm Naval Design for structural and hydrodynamic studies, and Studio Amadio & Partners all contributed to this achievement. The C-Cat 65 is currently the largest sport-cruise catamaran under construction in Italy. Its creation here in Fiumicino is not only a milestone for our shipyard but also a signal to other entrepreneurs — an invitation to resume production and restore Fiumicino’s central role in nautical construction, a sector tied to its vocation and long tradition.”
The launch was both a technical triumph and a symbolic moment, reinforcing Comar Yachts’ position as a builder of high-performance, Italian-crafted multihulls. Beyond its impressive scale and technical features, the C-Cat 65 embodies the company’s philosophy of blending innovation with heritage — ensuring that Italian shipbuilding expertise continues to shine on an international stage.
With the hull and exterior now complete, work is moving forward on the yacht’s interior fittings, which are being designed and finished with the same meticulous attention to detail. Once finalized, this first unit will make its international debut at the Cannes Yachting Festival, where it is expected to draw considerable attention from the global sailing community.
Meanwhile, Comar Yachts’ Technical Office has already begun preparing construction of a second C-Cat 65, which is destined for the United States. This follow-up project demonstrates the growing demand for large, sport-cruise catamarans that combine performance, comfort, and craftsmanship — and confirms the shipyard’s commitment to expanding its presence beyond Europe.
The launch of the C-Cat 65 was more than just the arrival of a new yacht; it was a celebration of Italian ingenuity, collaboration, and resilience. By bringing such a project to life entirely in Fiumicino, Comar Yachts has not only introduced a new benchmark in multihull design but has also contributed to the revival of one of Italy’s most historic hubs of nautical construction.
