Pearl Yachts To Showcase Both Flagship And Best Seller At Cannes Yachting Festival 2022

Pearl Yachts is preparing the most exciting models for the Cannes Yachting Festival 2022. The bestselling Pearl 62 and the flagship Pearl 95 will entice guests to visit the all-British brand and enjoy the industry’s landmark event in the presence of good company and unique yachts.

Pearl is pleased to announce the yard’s participation in the 2022 Cannes Yachting Festival from the 6th to the 11th of September. The Pearl 62 is returning to Cannes after a successful debut at the show last year, this time accompanied by her big sister, the flagship Pearl 95, offering guests an A-to-Z image of how exterior designer Bill Dixon and interior designer Kelly Hoppen CBE are a perfect match for the brand, flawlessly adapting their world-famous British styling across the range. The result is a testament to atelier shipbuilding, where each model is recognized as a member of the Pearl family while retaining an identifying personal sparkle.

Compact, Complete, and Competitive

Measuring 18.6m, the Pearl 62 is the only yacht in the size-class to offer accommodations for eight guests across four cabins, including a full beam owner’s suite with a private entrance, plus the owner’s choice of a crew cabin or jet ski garage. Other highlights include an aft galley open to the cockpit, a vast flybridge, a foredeck lounge, and the benefits of Volvo IPS pod drive propulsion, including joystick control.

Smart at Scale

The flagship Pearl 95 boasts a full beam owner’s cabin on the main deck, as well as an expansive beach club with fold-down buttresses. She has proven to be an award-winning combination of performance, style and quality, taking the title of ‘Best Layout’ at the World Yachts Trophies. The Pearl 95 went on to receive further recognition with the awards of ‘Best Interior Design – Power Yachts’ and ‘Best Main Saloon’ at the International Yacht and Aviation Awards.

British Design, Inside and Out

Award-winning naval architect Bill Dixon is behind the innovation and superb seakeeping that characterise Pearl Yachts, penning smart lines to sharpen each model’s streamlined exterior. And for the interiors, no other yacht builder works with the world-renowned designer Kelly Hoppen CBE. Her ever-evolving style, defined by a subtle fusion of clean lines and neutral tones, intuitively balanced with an opulent warmth, has been honoured with numerous prestigious awards. Every Pearl is a canvas, upon which Kelly’s unmistakable design philosophy takes shape into a unique and surprising yet coordinated interior.

Looking ahead to 2022 Cannes Yachting Festival, Pearl Yachts Managing Director, Iain Smallridge said, “As we prepare to set a course for the French Riviera, we reflect on all the accomplishments of this busy year. And so, it’s with great pride that we will participate in the industry’s headline event with two of our treasures: the bestselling Pearl 62 and the flagship Pearl 95. Guests are guaranteed a good time and should expect to see something absolutely unique in the market.”
