Design limits set by the EU Recreational Craft Directive (2013/53/EU), in significant wave height. A category covers the conditions of those below it. It is the limit the boat was designed to, not a promise that it is safe in any conditions within it — that judgement stays with the skipper.

About Pardo Yachts

Premium production

Italian builder of motoryachts with a distinctive inverted-bow design, part of Cantiere del Pardo, producing since 2017.

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.
