The new build will now undergo final works over the next two months, with delivery to her owner scheduled shortly after.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The flagship has been built to RINA Commercial Class Standards and is characterised by a plumb bow, curved glass and a low-profile superstructure. Though she is mainly an aluminium build, the VisionF 101 also features a custom-built carbon fibre hardtop to reduce weight while enhancing structural performance.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/www.boatshowchina.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/12-1024x576.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-16264\" style=\"width:700px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.boatshowchina.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/12-1024x576.webp 1024w, https:\/\/www.boatshowchina.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/12-300x169.webp 300w, https:\/\/www.boatshowchina.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/12-768x432.webp 768w, https:\/\/www.boatshowchina.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/12-1536x864.webp 1536w, https:\/\/www.boatshowchina.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/12-1568x882.webp 1568w, https:\/\/www.boatshowchina.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/12.webp 1600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>&#8220;The [model] is for a Mediterranean boat capable of both ambitious crossings between cruising grounds, and long holidays involving coastal hops between harbours and anchorages,&#8221; a spokesperson for the shipyard said at her launch. &#8220;She could easily manage Capri to Porto Cervo in a day, for example, or Messina to Corfu.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Accommodation is across three crew cabins, four guest cabins and a 30-square-metre owner&#8217;s cabin that fills half the starboard hull. The latter comprises a main bedroom, a 6.5-metre dressing room and a spacious en suite.
