Sacs Tecnorib has chosen the Cannes boat show, the most important nautical event in Eruope, scheduled for 12-17 September, to showcase for the first time the entire PIRELLI-branded walkaround speedboats line - from the entry level PIRELLI 30 to the flagship PIRELLI 50, including the forerunner 42 and the 35 - and to make the world premiere presentation of the Sacs Rebel 50 G. The latter will be exhibited along with the Rebel 47 and Rebel 55.

The PIRELLI 30, 35, 42 and 50 models, designed by the refined hand of Ted Mannerfelt, are distinguished by their clean, linear design. This range of boats has been created to offer adrenaline-fuelled performance, design and sportiness, characteristics that have always distinguished the PIRELLI brand, combined with stable, safe and comfortable cruising thanks to the walkaround configuration, which allows freedom of movement, ample sunbathing spaces and relax areas. The engine can be customised to meet owners' needs, while the double-redan planing hulls were conceived by Ocke Mannerfelt, a legendary powerboat designer.

At the same stand, the SACS line is exhibiting the Strider 11, 13 and 15, that belong to a historical range of the shipyard, characterised by performance that aims to combine classic rib sportiness with a high level of comfort.

All models are available for sea trials by appointment.

A world premiere of the much-awaited Rebel 50 G is presented at Quai Saint Pierre. Its intermediate size between 47 and 55 feet provides an ideal compromise between comfort and handling. This is an unconventional boat that straddles the classic rib and the cruiser markets. This transition is underlined, in the style designed by Christian Grande, by tapered foam profiles, which ensure safety when mooring and add sportiness without penalising the sleek lines of the side profile.

The deck lounge is partially enclosed to allow comfortable multi-day cruising, while the walkaround configuration and large aft and forward sunbeds enhance conviviality.

Below deck, the large forward master cabin and the comfortable midship VIP cabin can count on ample space and excellent privacy.

Alongside the 50 G will be the Rebel 55, which, at 17.30 metres in length overall, is a model with a convivial vocation, with ample outdoor space and a comfortable layout with two double cabins and a dinette. The engine can vary according to the owner's needs, and with maximum power, 50 knots can be reached.

The Rebel 47, recently redesigned again by Christian Grande with slimmer tubes, which constitutes a luxury cruiser with a modern design, will also be on show. The exterior layout enhances sportiness and safety, hallmarks of the Rebel line, while the design is reminiscent of that typical of larger boats. The lower deck has two double cabins with a Super Queen Size double bed, two-seater sofa and bookcase.

Sacs Tecnorib will be at the Cannes Yachting Festival from 12 to 17 September at the Pantiero stand 078 and the Quai Saint Pierre stand 140.
