Gunboat 68 on Display at Cannes Yachting Festival

We’re pleased to announce Gunboat 68 BreakFree will be on display in Port Canto Sailing Area of the 2022 Cannes Yachting Festival! Guests with sales or media interests are encouraged to pre-book a boarding time.

In the meantime, take a closer look on board with Quentin Mayerat, Loïck Peyron and Benoit Lebizay in this sea trial / interview video above by Skippers Magazine.

This year we are honored to see the Gunboat 68 chosen as one of the three yachts incorporated in the event artwork, to convey the visual identity of the show! For their artistic adaptation, Cannes Yachting Festival selected a drone photo by Patrick Condy featuring TOSCA under full sail on a Transatlantic voyage.

“For 2022, the Yachting Festival is unveiling a new and glamorous visual identity, which is in line with continuity while highlighting three units representing the show: a superyacht, a catamaran sailing boat and a dayboat. This new creation retains the main characteristics of the show’s DNA: elegance, clean lines, calm sea, horizon and lovely lifestyle that all inspire navigation.

This new design also features a couple sharing a wonderful moment in an incredible setting. The Yachting Festival is a showcase for the gems of the seas, which highlights unique skills and the craftsmen of shipbuilding. It enables everyone – sea lovers, yachting fans, seasoned visitors and those who are simply curious – to discover a world, in an idyllic setting emblematic of the French Riviera.”
