Perini Navi’s 25m Eco-tender Scoops Award for Innovation
\n \tWhen you think of Italian shipyard Perini Navi, the most iconic sailing yachts ever to be launched instantly come to mind; from Maltese Falcon’s world-famous rig to the sleek sophistication of the 60m Seahawk. What you may not instantly associate Perini Navi with, however, are motor yachts \u2013 until now. Since rebranding, Perini Navi\u2019s first motor yacht to launch and first-ever planing model, the 25m Eco-tender, is truly reshaping conceptions about the Italian yard, and has proven its own award-winning success in doing so.
\n Penned entirely by the hand of Perini Navi\u2019s in-house design team, Perini Navi proudly announced this week that the 25m Eco-tender scooped the \u2018Environment and Energy\u2019 award at the 2019 MDO. Montecarlo Prize 2019. The ceremony, held at the prestigious Yacht Club de Monaco this Thursday, was held in recognition of shipbuilders whose capabilities in the fields of innovation, technology, design and sustainability have excelled. The new award honouring the recognition of such topical themes in the industry of today was fittingly held in a location widely accepted as a global yachting epicentre, under the high Patronage of H.S.H. Prince Albert II of Monaco.
\nThe Eco-tender is a \u2018mini superyacht\u2019 built for an existing Perini Navi owner who wanted an \u2018independent extension\u2019 of their sailing yacht. Fast, light and built entirely from aluminium, the Eco-tender realises an Owner\u2019s desire for exploration and adventure in style, and is instantly recognisable from its clear lines and classic \u2018Perini\u2019 navy blue hull as one of the yard\u2019s distinguished custom projects.
\nIn terms of innovation, the Eco-tender has no shortage of remarkable features. Its propulsion system, unique navigation system and Anchor Watching System set this 25m firmly apart from the crowd. In addition, the Eco-tender also features a double VSAT system for internet connection and three Iridium telephones, capable of maintaining a 100 Mbps connection to her mother ship even at a distance of ten miles away. \u00a0
\nEdoardo Tabacchi, Perini Navi\u2019s Vice Chairman and Majority Shareholder, commented upon receiving the award, \u201cWe greeted this news with great satisfaction and we are honoured to share your prize with the owner who encouraged us to design a craft this revolutionary as well as with everyone that contributed to making the project real.\u201d<\/p>\n
