The first 39.4-metre Flexplorer Aurelia has been launched by Cantiere delle Marche. The explorer, which has a range of 5,000 nautical miles, has been described as a “game changer” by CdM co-founder Vasco Buonpensiere. Designed by Hydro Tec, the Flexplorer combines luxury with practicality. The collapsible aft deck bulwarks fold out to port and starboard to create an “infinity deck”, which is also equipped with a pop-up A-Frame crane (hidden under the deck) capable of lifting 3,500 kilograms. The Francesco Paszkowski-designed interior features accommodation for nine guests, a gym and a wine cellar that spans the main and upper decks inside the stairwell. cantieredellemarche.it
