Ardea Yachts A36 (2026-)



Brief Summary

New Polish Builder Brings 36ft Walk-Around Focused on Space Optimization and Sustainable Materials to September Show.

A new brand of motoryacht is to have its official debut at the Cannes Yachting Festival in September. Ardea Yachts, a boutique luxury boat builder with its manufacturing facility based in Poland, focuses on blending high-performance engineering with eco-friendly, sustainable materials.

Ardea Yachts unveiled the Ardea 36 at Salone Nautico Venezia 2026 in a pre-premiere event with its new Italian dealer.

Founded by a team with over two decades of experience in yacht engineering, manufacturing, and product development, the company has entered the 36ft walk-around motoryacht segment with a specific objective: to deliver the comfort, space, and functionality normally associated with larger vessels.

The Ardea 36 features a 3.75m beam, which the company identifies as fundamental to its design approach. This beam width allows for wide walk-around side decks, generous entertaining areas, opening side terraces, and two cabins with a separate shower compartment – an accommodation layout uncommon in this size category.

The brand takes its name from the Latin word for heron, reflecting a design philosophy centered on balance, precision, and efficient movement on the water.

The Ardea 36 was first presented at Salone Nautico Venezia 2026 during a pre-premiere event held with the brand’s newly appointed Italian dealer. This marked the brand’s initial market introduction and the beginning of its dealer network development. Since then, additional units have been completed as the company transitioned from prototype development to early series production.

At the 2026 Cannes Yachting Festival, Ardea will present both its first model and its broader brand strategy to the international marine industry. The company’s approach prioritizes practical engineering, intelligent use of space, and everyday usability over design trends, with plans to expand its dealer network across key European markets while focusing on long-term value for owners and distribution partners.
