An imposing grey hull and four Volvo Penta IPS1200s propelling her through the waves. These are only a couple of the reasons why Amer Yachts Permare’s latest creation, the new Amer Cento Quad, launched last week from Viareggio, is a step ahead of its competition. The large windows provide direct contact with the sea, while on the performance side the new Amer Cento Quad has reached 32 knots during test runs, proving also that not only does she offer unmatched onboard comfort, but significantly reduced consumption. The model, featuring a unique level of attention to the most minute details in order to create an impeccable chiaroscuro effect and to make the metallic surfaces truly stand out, will be among the most anticipated eye-catchers at the 59th Genoa International Boat Show later this year. www.ameryachts.it

The shipyard Amer Yachts, Permare Group, won the Women Value Company Award, handed out by Intesa San Paolo in partnership with the Bellisario Foundation. The “Women Value Company” Award, is reserved for small to medium businesses that stand out for their real and innovative strategies and policies in favour of inclusion, participation and promotion of women’s contributions within the company environment. Among the motivations behind Amer Yachts deserving the award, listed as one of the top 10 companies in the North West of Italy, is: “entrepreneurship that is aware of its environment, of equal opportunities, that something gives back to its territory, all values that should never taken for granted and which fly in the face of purely profit-focused mentalities”. www.ameryachts.it www.fondazionebellisario.org www.intesasanpaolo.com
