APREAMARE CELEBRATES
MAESTRO 88
APREAMARE CELEBRATES A HISTORIC MOMENT WITH THE LAUNCH OF THE NEW FLAGSHIP MAESTRO 88, THE LARGEST VESSEL EVER BUILT BY THE SHIPYARD
The private celebration was attended by the owner, an Italian and an admirer of the Apreamare brand who already owns other boats by the Sorrentine shipyard. The owner brought his family and expressly requested the attendance of all the workers and suppliers who contributed with passion and dedication to the realization of this fascinating and ambitious project, in addition to the Apreamare management. The traditional christening ritual sealed the launch to the notes of the Mameli anthem, a song chosen to represent the essence of the all-Italian project, which proudly represents Made in Italy for the world to see.
The ceremony was a moment of great emotion for both the owner and the shipyard, testifying to the important milestone, summarized in the words of CEO Rita Pollio and President Cataldo Aprea.
“We celebrated a dream come true, thanks to an owner who truly believes in us! A special thanks to all the collaborators who have accompanied us in our journey of constant growth, which has brought us to experience this joyful emotion during the launch ceremony, full of pride for the creation of the Maestro 88,” comments Rita Pollio, CEO of Apreamare.
Cataldo Aprea added, “To realize the Maestro 88, we involved our entire supply chain of suppliers and artisans from Campania, the same ones who have supported the growth of Apreamare since the beginning. The launch of this boat represents a fundamental milestone. I cannot help but express my gratitude to all the workers and suppliers who have made this magnificent project possible.”
Maestro 88
The Maestro 88 represented a new challenge for the Sorrentine shipyard, for the architect Marco Casali and for the engineer Umberto Tagliavini. It is a totally custom-built vessel with a semi-planing hull that maintains the family feeling of the previous Maestro line while introducing profound stylistic and functional innovations.
27.10 meters long and 7 meters wide with a draft of 1.80 meters and a displacement at full load of 90 tons, the Maestro 88 is powered by two 1,650 horsepower MAN engines, capable of reaching a maximum speed of 22 knots and a range of 1,000 nautical miles at a cruising speed of 10 knots. The owner of the first unit opted for more powerful 2,000 horsepower engines, perfectly balancing weight and power for long-range navigation in absolute comfort.

The exterior lines integrate perfectly with the bright interiors and large living spaces, which include a large beach club and a long sliding glass window on the main deck to bring the sea even closer. On the flybridge, there is a relaxation area, a galley with a wet-bar and solar panels. The interiors are completely customizable, available in configurations of up to four cabins and ample space for entertainment, all aimed at a superior quality of life on board, especially for long-range cruises.
