The Cantieri Diano 24 (79 feet), built in 1999, is a refined and spacious motor yacht renowned for its elegant Italian craftsmanship and luxurious interiors. The yacht is powered by two powerful Caterpillar 3412E Dita engines (2 x 1400 HP) installed new in 2014, with only 800 engine hours, offering reliable performance for long-range cruising. Equipped with shaft drive transmission and four-blade bronze propellers, it includes essential technical systems such as twin generators, a watermaker, inverter, air conditioning, and full hydraulic and electrical support systems. Designed for both comfort and functionality, the yacht offers an inviting layout with three main guest cabins: a full-beam master suite with two bathrooms, a VIP double cabin with en-suite shower, and a triple cabin with Pullman beds and separate facilities. Crew accommodations are generous, featuring two dedicated crew cabins and a separate bathroom. The main deck includes a bright salon with leather seating, a formal dining area, and a fully equipped galley, while the flybridge hosts a bar, grill, and lounge area under a bimini top. Teak decking, high-end appliances, satellite TV, and surround sound enhance the onboard experience, making the Cantieri Diano 24 ideal for private cruising or charter use.

Glamorous conditions on Good Friday! The first day of the RORC Easter Challenge was blessed with sparkling conditions in the Solent. A light gradient breeze from the south east built during the day to over 10 knots of pressure. Brilliant sunshine throughout the day added to the superb conditions. The RORC Race Committee led by Steve Cole held a number of practice starts, followed by three short, sharp windward leeward races. The coaching team out on the water giving competitors top advice included North Sails and a RORC team run by Andrew ‘Dog’ Palfrey. After racing, competitors enjoyed a free bowl of pasta and a beer before the well-attended coaching debrief at the RORC Cowes Clubhouse. “The coaching team have one overall goal and that is to help all the teams progress at an early stage in the season. The wind strength was better than expected, not especially shifty, but wind speed did vary,” commented North Sails’ Jeremy Smart. “In puffy conditions, anticipating the change becomes very important and we saw quite a few teams not foreseeing the change in gear, so that is definitely an area for them to work on.” Read more at https://bit.ly/3Ma4YG4 #RORCracing #RORCEasterChallenge #NorthSails 📸 RORC / Shaun Roster / Louay Habib
