Nautical Design Awards: SW 94 Kiboko best sailing yacht over 24 mt.

During the press conference in Milan, Yacht & Sail magazine editor in chief Andrea Brambilla and ADI ( Associazione per il Disegno Industriale) President Luisa Bocchietto announced the winners of the second edition of the Nautical Design Awards.

KIBOKO SW 94 was awarded best Sailing yacht over 24 mt.

“La Giuria ha premiato la risoluzione complessiva, ben bilanciata, sia all’interno, sia all’esterno. Il prodotto, che presenta una cura maniacale dei dettagli, dichiara un’attenzione continua al design, che non scade mai nel puro esercizio di stile. Il progetto rappresenta un eccellente esempio di concezione e realizzazione di yacht finalizzato a navigare veramente; risultato non sempre raggiunto da altre imbarcazioni di questa taglia e di questo livello di finiture”.

“The Jury appreciated the general well balanced completion , both from the interior and the exterior point of view. The product, that shows a maniacal care to details, is the expression of a design which is never a style exercise. The project is an excellent example of concept and construction of a yacht devoted to “real” navigation; a target not so frequently achieved by other yachts of similar size and so well finished.”

While CEO Willy Persico was collecting the prize at Sevenstars Hotel gala dinner in Milan, in Johannesburg, on the same day, Marco Alberti, General Manager of the yard, took part in another renowned event, the Business Excellence Award, organized by the Italian-South African Chamber of Trade and Industries. Marco Alberti received the HONORARY CHAIRPERSON’S SPECIAL AWARD.
