About the Prestige M8

On YachtingNews, we have extensively praised the formidable characteristics of this extraordinary catamaran, especially in our sea trial. But it’s absolutely worth summarizing them. The Prestige M8 is the perfect cruiser for lifestyle-oriented vacations: it’s a sumptuous cruising yacht capable of offering a dream lifestyle, having redefined the standards of onboard wellness. Designed by Camillo Garroni, the Prestige M8 has literally broken the market’s conventions. This luxurious 19-meter-long catamaran is equipped with extraordinary finishes and represents a true floating apartment, with a whopping 300 square meters of living space and every comfort imaginable.

Particularly captivating is the hydraulic platform, which, with its compass-like movement, can be experienced both as a terrace extending from the lounge and as a beach area. It spans over 4 meters wide and a remarkable 1.5 meters deep, with three configuration options (submerged for swimming, aligned with the garage, or raised to extend the main deck), making it the most coveted feature of this yacht. Another highlight of the Prestige M8 is the 16-meter flybridge, with modular furniture that allows the owner to create cozy conversation corners, sunbathing areas with chaise lounges, or accommodate up to ten people for dinner.

The Prestige M8 can be configured with either four or five guest cabins, in addition to crew cabins positioned at the bow. The largest spaces onboard are the salon and the master cabin, measuring 50 and 30 square meters respectively. As for the propulsion system, the standard setup includes two Volvo Penta D8 diesel engines, 600 HP each, offering a top speed of 20 knots at 2900 RPM.

Since its launch, the Prestige M8 has garnered not only immense appreciation from the public but also several awards that attest to its quality. More specifically, the catamaran was praised at the Düsseldorf Boat Show during the prestigious “Motor Boats Awards” in the category of flybridges over 60 feet. In short, those who have the opportunity to test it during one of the tour stops should not miss this chance.
