Currently under construction at Wider's Vision Hub in Fano, the design – crafted by Luca Dini in collaboration with the Wider Centro Stile – focuses on maximizing light and space while enhancing the onboard aesthetic.Notable design elements include intelligently angled superstructure lines that allure from every angle, promoting both style and functionality.

With a focus on upscale outdoor living, numerous deck spaces are designed for an immersive experience on the water."The WiderCat 76 represents a modern interpretation of elegance, styled in a Hamptons flair that remains welcoming," expressed Marcello Maggi, President of W-Fin Sarl, the parent company of Wider. "With its sumptuous decor and expansive spaces, this yacht redefines what it means to enjoy a luxurious lifestyle on water.”This impressive yacht includes a lavish master suite with sweeping sea views, along with spacious guest accommodations and multiple outdoor areas for entertaining. Maggi emphasizes that the WiderCat 76 is designed to provide superyacht-like amenities in a 23.12-meter package, ensuring unmatched quality inside and out.WiLder 60 OutboardThe WiLder 60 has already made waves in the industry with its blend of high-performance and luxury design since its initial launch earlier in 2024. Now, Wider is poised to launch an Outboard version, catering to a diverse market, including North America. Featuring four Mercury Verado 600 outboards, this model promises exhilarating speeds of over 40 knots, with a comfortable cruising pace of 35 knots.This new iteration not only enhances performance but also optimizes interior space; the engine room has been transformed into a crew cabin, and the interior layout offers flexibility with two or three cabin options. The luxurious interior merges elements of both supercars and superyachts, showcasing an impressive standard of bespoke design.“The WiLder 60 is a true testament to the passions of discerning boat owners,” notes Maggi. “Our aim was to embody both aesthetics and functionality while offering innovative layout options and exceptional water interaction.”With its feather-light construction – displacing just 33 tons – the WiLder 60 Outboard combines comfort and functionality with amenities like an extensive dining space, large sunbeds, and easy maintenance features.The WiderCat 76 and WiLder 60 Outboard perfectly complement their larger counterparts, the WiderCat 92 and the original WiLder 60, demonstrating Wider’s continuous evolution and commitment to innovation. Maggi concludes, “From luxurious weekend getaways to majestic superyachts, we strive to showcase our versatility and vision for future yacht ownership at every level.”Cannes 2024 will also spotlight Wider's collaborations with various Italian and international brands. Visitors can enjoy Talenti's finely crafted furnishings, indulge in a Wider-flavored ice cream from TooA, and interact with the latest Seabob F9 models on display.
