Fairline Yachts has today signed contracts with the Alberto Mancini Yacht Design studio (amyachtdesign.com) in an exciting strategic move by the company to secure its collaboration to design new and innovative yachts that will surprise, excite and delight Fairline customers throughout the world.

Andrew Pope, Head of Design at Fairline told us, “It was an exhaustive selection process, Alberto clearly demonstrated his understanding of the brand and we’re very excited to see him applying his talent and design language to our future new models. Vripack will ensure each of our new models are at the leading edge of marine technology.”
