United Yacht Sales, the world's largest yacht brokerage firm with more than 250 yacht brokers, will partner with Aquitalia Yachts as their U.S. dealer. Aquitalia Yachts, designed and built at the Yihong Yachts Shipyard, are luxury flybridge cruising yachts with models from 64 to 95-feet known for their high level of owner customization capabilities.

The Yihong Yachts shipyard that builds each Aquitalia spans 45 acres and has a production area of 2.19 million square feet.

"A special event will be planned at FLIBS 2024 featuring the Aquitalia 78," continued Jeff. "Stay tuned to our Facebook and Instagram channels to find out more information as we get closer to the first boat arriving."
