ISA Yachts is pleased to announce that the construction on hull # 3 of its new 80-metre “Continental” model is officially underway. The project has been started on speculation and will be available for delivery for the first quarter of 2028.

This is the third 80-metre hull currently in build at the Ancona shipyard. The other two units are already sold and scheduled for delivery in 2026 and 2027 respectively.

The first four blocks have already been assembled and construction will continue until the entire hull is built.

“We believe that there are the right economic conditions to invest again in the construction of an 80-metre vessel, following the sale of the other 2 hulls currently in build with the same size and engineering, also began as on-spec projects. Drawing on over 50-year history, our experience leads us to trust the current market and supports our decision to invest in projects we believe to be at the vanguard in terms of design and technical innovation” says Giuseppe Palumbo, CEO at Palumbo Superyachts.
