Contigo: The Fuel Cell Powered Luxury Yacht Now Available for Charter
A new chapter in the evolution of the luxury yacht has arrived on the charter market.
The remarkable Contigo, a 50 metre superyacht from Italian shipyard Sanlorenzo, now welcomes guests for the 2026 season. This pioneering vessel introduces fuel cell technology into the world of luxury yachting while preserving the elegance and craftsmanship that define the lifestyle of The 1%.
Listed for charter through Cecil Wright with a weekly rate of approximately $355,000, Contigo represents a vision of refined travel on the sea where innovation and luxury exist in harmony.
A Luxury Yacht Powered by Advanced Fuel Cell Technology
Contigo holds a historic place in the superyacht industry as the first luxury yacht equipped with methanol fuel cells. The technology converts methanol into hydrogen and then into electricity to supply the yacht’s onboard systems.
This advanced system allows extended time at anchor with a serene onboard atmosphere and a refined energy profile that reflects the future of sustainable yachting.
The yacht was originally delivered in 2024 under the name Almax, built by Sanlorenzo for the shipyard’s CEO Massimo Perotti. A discreet private transaction introduced a new owner and the vessel received her present name Contigo.
Built on the acclaimed Sanlorenzo 50Steel platform, the yacht brings together innovation and Italian design heritage in a seamless expression of modern maritime luxury.
Elegant Design with Transoceanic Capability
Contigo carries a hybrid diesel electric propulsion system that provides smooth cruising across the world’s most desirable yachting destinations. The yacht cruises comfortably at approximately 12.5 knots, reaches a maximum speed of 16 knots, and offers a range of about 4,000 nautical miles.
This capability opens access to iconic cruising grounds that captivate the imagination of Ultra High Net Worth Individuals including the Mediterranean Riviera, the Balearic Islands, the Greek archipelago, and the turquoise waters of the Caribbean.
Her steel hull paired with a lightweight aluminium superstructure contributes to excellent balance and stability. Advanced stabilisation systems ensure a calm and comfortable experience whether underway or at anchor.
Interior Spaces Inspired by Contemporary Italian Design
With an impressive internal volume of 1,347 gross tons, Contigo offers generous living spaces curated by the acclaimed design studio Lissoni and Partners.
The interiors present a minimalist interpretation of luxury. Natural materials, soft textures, and refined architectural lines create a serene atmosphere that mirrors the surrounding ocean.
Five elegant cabins accommodate up to ten guests, while a professional crew of eleven ensures seamless service. The owner’s suite occupies the upper deck and presents the feeling of a private penthouse at sea. This sanctuary includes a personal study and a dressing room designed for ultimate comfort and privacy.
Throughout the yacht expansive glazing invites natural light into the salons and lounges, creating a seamless connection between interior elegance and ocean views.
