Absolute Yachts is presenting 11 models at the Cannes Yachting Festival 2026, creating one of the most extensive single-builder displays relevant to Luxury Yacht Guide at this year's show. The presentation is led by world premieres of the Navetta 50, Navetta 58 and Navetta 66, joined by established yachts from both the Navetta and Fly families.
The full Cannes selection includes the Navetta 50, Navetta 53, Navetta 58, Navetta 62, Navetta 66, Navetta 70 and Navetta 75, together with the 52 FLY, 56 FLY, 60 FLY and 70 FLY. Taken together, the line-up gives visitors an unusually broad opportunity to compare Absolute's two principal approaches to contemporary luxury cruising.
Three Navetta models make their world premieres
The Navetta 50, Navetta 58 and Navetta 66 form the centrepiece of Absolute's Cannes presentation, with all three making their world debuts. Absolute describes the new generation around increased light, versatility and connection with the sea, continuing themes that have become central to the Navetta identity.
The Navetta 50 introduces those ideas in the most compact of the three new models, with a terrace-style cockpit, open-air flybridge and an emphasis on bright interior spaces. The Navetta 58 and Navetta 66 extend the same design direction into progressively more substantial cruising platforms while retaining the family resemblance of the range.
The Navetta family appears in depth
Alongside the premieres, Absolute is showing the Navetta 53, Navetta 62, Navetta 70 and Navetta 75. This gives visitors the opportunity to move through much of the current Navetta family in one location and see how the shipyard adapts the same core philosophy across different layouts and levels of onboard volume.
The range has become closely associated with large windows, flexible exterior areas and an emphasis on creating visual continuity between the interior and the sea. Cannes provides a particularly useful setting for comparing how those themes change from one Navetta model to another rather than assessing each yacht in isolation.
Four Fly models offer a different character
Absolute's Fly range is represented by the 52 FLY, 56 FLY, 60 FLY and 70 FLY. These yachts provide a more conventional flybridge counterpoint to the Navetta family while retaining the builder's focus on panoramic glazing, adaptable exterior spaces and practical cruising layouts.
The four models progressively develop the flybridge concept with larger social areas and increasingly flexible deck arrangements. Presenting them together allows buyers to compare the evolution of the Fly range directly rather than relying on specifications or separate model visits.
Cannes becomes a showcase for the Absolute portfolio
With 11 yachts on display and three world premieres, Absolute is using Cannes as a major statement about its current production programme. The presentation is broad enough to show both continuity and change, combining established models with the newest generation of Navetta designs.
For Luxury Yacht Guide, that makes Absolute one of the most significant builders to watch at the 2026 festival. Buyers can compare the Fly and Navetta philosophies side by side, examine three new yachts at their world premieres and see a substantial portion of the Italian builder's current range in one place.
