About Arcadia Yachts

Semi-custom

Neapolitan builder of glass-walled, solar-roofed semi-displacement motor yachts — seven models in the A and Sherpa collections, from the 18.7-metre Sherpa 60 to the 35-metre A115, built at Torre Annunziata on the Bay of Naples.

Arcadia Yachts places its roots in the culture around Naples — from ancient Pompeii and the Maritime Republic of Amalfi to the Neapolitan Renaissance and the city's cooking — and says its yachts carry on that long love story with the sea. The page marks one date: 22 December 2009, the launch of the first Arcadia 85, bound for Düsseldorf, under a line from Ugo Pellegrino: 'When there's an idea, you're halfway through the journey.' The yard calls its approach the 'Yachting Renaissance', a way of cruising built around people rediscovering a more natural harmony with the sea, with large spaces and windows that open the boat to nature, which technology is meant to protect. The name comes from classical literature, where Arcadia was an idyllic land whose people lived in perfect harmony with nature.
