What this builder is
Pardo Yachts is an Italian motoryacht brand of Cantiere del Pardo, known for its distinctive inverted-bow design language applied across three ranges: the sporty Walkaround (P38-P50), the long-range Endurance (E60, E72), and the hybrid GT series. It sits in the premium semi-custom segment of the Italian motoryacht market, differentiated by styling cues borrowed from the builder's sailing-yacht heritage.
Who sails them
Buyers are typically experienced powerboaters or former sailors drawn to the distinctive inverted-bow styling, using the Walkaround models for day trips and coastal cruising with family or small groups, and the larger Endurance/GT models for extended cruising and overnighting in the Mediterranean and beyond.
Signature models
The P38 helped establish the Walkaround line's sporty inverted-bow identity, while the E60 and E72 Endurance models showcase the brand's long-range cruising comfort, and the GT75 represents the flagship blending sportiness with Endurance-level volume.
Strengths
Pardo is repeatedly recognized for its distinctive inverted-bow styling, Italian craftsmanship, and space-efficient interior layouts inspired by sailing-yacht design principles.
Considerations
As a semi-custom Italian production builder with a relatively young, focused range (three lines, modest model count), Pardo offers less breadth than mass-market motoryacht brands and pricing sits at a premium design-driven level rather than volume-market value.

History
Pardo Yachts began in 2017, when Cantiere del Pardo -- by then more than fifty years into building sailing boats -- turned that experience towards motor yachts. The inverted bow was there from the start and states the intention: a boat meant to be in accord with the sea rather than to override it. The layouts owe their logic to the sailing tradition the yard came from, which is why they read differently from most motor yachts. Three ranges follow from it: the walkaround open boats P38, P43, P50 and the coming P75; the Endurance E60 and E72, for long, quiet passages at controlled speed and consumption; and the GT52 and GT75, with the GT65 to come, which put the walkaround's temperament into an Endurance's volume.
