Austin Parker made a significant impression at the Cannes Yachting Festival this week.

The Italian shipyard introduced not just one, but two completely new yacht lines. The Unica collection features three catamarans of 58 feet (shown at top), 68 feet, and 78 feet, while the Iconica series includes three navetta yachts measuring 77 feet, 88 feet, and 100 feet. All

Both collections were designed by renowned firms Pininfarina and De Simoni Yacht Design. These prestigious Italian studios recently opened a joint boutique in the yachting hotspot of Porto Lotti and began collaborating with Austin Parker a few years ago, establishing a unique design identity for the shipyard.

The Unica and Iconica lines merge traditional Italian elegance with contemporary technology. Drawing from the inspiration of the CAT56 introduced at Cannes last year, the new models achieve a flawless fusion of sporty aesthetics and elegance. The six inaugural vessels exhibit sleek, sophisticated exteriors complemented by aerodynamic shapes and a fresh, signature A-shaped hardtop support.

These models will feature environmentally friendly innovations including solar panels to reduce ecological impact and cutting-edge navigation systems for an enhanced cruising experience. Each yacht will also be fitted with high-quality materials and luxurious furnishings. The outdoor areas will feature items from the Segno collection, designed by Pininfarina for Reflex.

The Unica multihulls aim to offer an “extraordinary,” one-of-a-kind experience at sea. These catamarans feature spacious living areas illuminated by ample windows. The interior and exterior spaces are seamlessly integrated, enabling sailors to navigate effortlessly. Each Unica is also furnished with a lavish, full-beam owner’s suite.

The Iconica navettas promise to feature some of the most spacious dimensions in their class, according to Austin Parker. These yachts are designed with expansive, light-filled living areas and vast outdoor decks. The top-end Iconica 100 boasts an impressive two-level aft entrance. The lower deck will house guest cabins, while the upper deck features a spacious main salon and an owner’s suite complete with a private terrace. Additionally, the 100 features a loft-style beach club providing direct access to the sea.
