Leading Finnish boat manufacturer Saxdor Yachts has once again cemented its reputation for innovative design by winning the prestigious Design Innovation Award at the 64th Genoa International Boat Show with the brand-new Saxdor 340 GTWA.
Established by the Italian Marine Industry Association, Confindustria Nautica, in collaboration with I Saloni Nautici, this award recognizes outstanding achievements in research, innovation and design within the yachting industry. The Saxdor 340 GTWA won in the category “Motorboats – Up to 14m,” receiving high praise from the jury as a „compact walk-around with many features and enjoyable natural light.”
The independent jury, made up of Italian and international experts from different sectors, highlighted the 340 GTWA’s compact yet highly functional walk-around layout, which maximizes space while maintaining a sleek design. With features like an expansive wheelhouse with large sliding glass doors and optional sunroof, the boat seamlessly blends indoor and outdoor spaces, providing comfort and adaptability in all weather conditions.
