A project of silence and light
The Silent 80, flagship of Silent Yachts, a pioneer in sustainable boating, is an electrically powered catamaran driven by the sun, but also a total design object where engineering and aesthetic sensibility come together.
At 80 feet in length, the Silent 80 reinterprets the tradition of the Italian superyacht in a contemporary key. Every space is designed to welcome, open up, and let in natural light. The two-deck layout alternates between convivial areas and more intimate spaces, such as the master cabins with large windows and an atmosphere reminiscent of the calm of a seaside villa.
Wooden surfaces run across the decks like a thread connecting interior and exterior. From the lounge to the main deck, and extending to the outdoor areas dedicated to relaxation and socializing, the Rovere Michelangelo Montblanc flooring from the Classica collection, finished with NaturPlus2 Matt and Selezione Elegant, helps create a sense of architectural continuity: a warm and refined line guiding the gaze toward the horizon. It is not just a covering, but the surface that defines the yacht’s identity—a link between nature and technology. The warmth of the wood dialogues with the purity of the lines and materials, creating a sensory continuity with every step and glance.
In this balance between efficiency and aesthetics, the parquet becomes a metaphor for the project: natural material embracing technology, tradition meeting the future. It is both a poetic and technical gesture, capable of restoring navigation to its original value—the contact with nature, the slow passage of time, and the silence that becomes luxury.


“We chose Italy as the heart of our company,” explains Fabrizio Iarrera, CEO of Silent Yachts. “Our catamarans reflect the style, precision, and craftsmanship that define Italian excellence, bringing it to the seas of the world.”
