Smartgyro’s commitment to innovation and reliability has made it the partner of choice for leading global OEMs and boat manufacturers. The following brands will showcase Smartgyro-equipped vessels during the events, including several important new launches and premieres:

Rio Yachts
·       Sport Coupé 50 – equipped with SG20 (Cannes debut)
 
The installation aboard the new Sport Coupé 50 further strengthens the collaboration between Smartgyro and Rio Yachts. Alongside this latest project, several other Smartgyro-equipped Rio Yachts have been completed, with additional installations already planned across different vessels in the yard’s portfolio. The growing adoption of Smartgyro technology reflects the shipyard’s confidence in recommending stabilization solutions that are increasingly requested by owners, seeking enhanced onboard comfort and an improved cruising experience.
 
Bluegame
·       BGM75 – equipped with two SG80s, (one in each hull)
·       BG64 – equipped with an SG40 (World Premiere for Cannes)
 
Bluegame and Smartgyro have developed a strong and longstanding partnership over the years, with stabilization systems installed across several models in the shipyard’s range. The relationship is built on mutual trust, proven performance and a shared commitment to enhancing onboard comfort and owner experience. The continued adoption of Smartgyro technology by Bluegame, including on innovative projects such as the BGM75 multihull, further reflects the value of this successful relationship.
 
Centouno Navi
·       Vespro 55 – equipped with an SG20 (Cannes debut)
 
Ahead of its Cannes debut, the recently launched Vespro 55 successfully completed commissioning and sea trials, achieving up to 83% roll reduction at resonance thanks to the Smartgyro SG20 installed onboard. Designed as a high-performance 16.5-metre yacht capable of speeds up to 56 knots, the Vespro 55 combines advanced composite construction, waterjet propulsion and cutting-edge stabilization technology to deliver both exhilarating performance and enhanced onboard comfort. Following the positive commissioning results and strong market reception, additional hulls are already under construction, with further Smartgyro units ordered for upcoming deliveries, marking a promising start to the collaboration between the two companies.
 
Manari

Ad Astra Yachts
·       Ad Astra 60 – equipped with an SG20
 
The Ad Astra 60 showcases a successful collaboration built around a shared focus on comfort, reliability and intelligent engineering. Selected for its modular architecture and ease of serviceability, the Smartgyro SG20 was seamlessly integrated into the yacht to enhance onboard comfort while supporting the vessel’s long-term ownership philosophy.
The growing number of premium yacht manufacturers choosing Smartgyro highlights the industry’s confidence in the company’s technology and its ability to deliver superior onboard comfort with long-term reliability and ease of maintenance.
