OPEN SEA – July/August Edition 2022

SAY CARBON YACHTS MARBELLA

Modern and Timeless “Sports Cars on Water”

Pacesetting boat industry manufacturer SAY Carbon Yachts has continued to consolidate its expansion plans across Europe with a new dealership in Marbella. The showroom was launched in May by Sascha Falk who, in addition to being managing partner of SAY Carbon Yachts Marbella, has another full-service property company (FRD), conceived Ocean View Marbella, and is setting up a concierge option for homeowners (Louis Concierge). A bespoke development of 44 private sea view residences in the hills – overlooking landscaped gardens and with 180-degree panoramic views of the Mediterranean and beyond to Gibraltar and Africa – Ocean View Marbella is due to be completed in 2024. SAY Carbon Yachts is considered the most technologically advanced manufacturer of carbon-built luxurious day boats. The models are ultra-light, fast and potent – appropriately described as “sports cars on water” – and they are manufactured with 50 per cent less fuel consumption compared to other peer group models. The brand is also recognised in the industry for “electrifying” yachting with the SAY 29E (in addition to the SAY 29), which offers silent boating in style. The innovative technology provided by e-mobility pioneers Kreisel Electric enables top speeds of up to 40 knots, and consumption of only 25 l/h at a cruising speed of 22 knots. Not surprising, then, that the SAY 29E was

honoured with an award as the world’s fastest production-built electric boat. “When I created Ocean View,” says Sacha Falk, “I wanted to bring a wider lifestyle offering to the Andalucian coast too – therefore Louis Concierge was born. But most importantly we are now bringing SAY Carbon Yachts to Marbella to reinvent its boating heritage, with purchase and charter opportunities. SAY Carbon Yachts are carbon masterpieces, they are pioneers of lightness, which allows this incredible acceleration akin to a sports car, and they are made from the most luxurious materials and offer the highest comfort. It is modern and timeless, it really is a piece of art.” The launch of the SAY Carbon Yachts Marbella dealership also showcased the latest SAY Carbon Yacht, the SAY 42, which has all the advantages of the SAY 29 including a light-weight carbon hydrodynamic hull and the Volvo Penta 430 Hp low-emission engine (using only 50 litres of fuel at an average speed of 20 knots). According to the company, this enables breath-taking acceleration of zero to 50 knots within seconds, but with more space for increased comfort and a master bedroom to make it an authentic “weekender” boat, with capacity up to 12 people. Meanwhile, the brand will soon be announcing details of its newest boat, the SAY 52, to be launched at the 2023 Cannes Yachting Festival. This model will feature the same SAY DNA, but will be the first yacht in its class to be

optionally equipped with an electric hybrid system, enabling silent boating in the marina and driving in sheltered bay, as well as a boost for exceptional speeds. The designer and CEO behind SAY Carbon Yacht is Austrian-born Karl Wagner, one of the most experienced carbon specialists in Europe. In addition to creating the most efficient yachts, the idea behind SAY Carbon Yachts is for buyers of high-end homes to be able to purchase a SAY Carbon Yacht to use as a day boat. Before joining SAY Carbon Yachts, Karl and his 700 employees at the Carbo Tech company were among the largest producers of carbon-fibre reinforced components in the automobile industry, with a customer base including prestigious global brands such as Aston Martin, McLaren and Porsche. Carbon is a material that has already been used extensively and proved successful not just in motorsports but in construction, aviation and other high-tech applications. “We are thrilled to expand SAY Carbon Yachts to Marbella,” says Karl Wagner. “The international audience and year-round weather makes it the perfect location for the launch. We’re delighted to have Sascha Falk leading the charge for us in taking our expertise to a new destination, with lightweight construction, unique acceleration and agility, plus fuel consumption reduction whilst still increasing range.”

All SAY Carbon Yachts are handcrafted with the latest technology in Germany. Every model has a unique “wave cutting” hull that cuts easily through the water with side wings offering maximum stability, plus additional support from a Seakeeper gyro-stabiliser.
