About Cantiere Delle Marche Darwin Class 102
Twin 680 hp Caterpillar engines and a 3,800-nautical-mile range point to a yacht built to cross oceans, not to spend a weekend hugging the coast. Cantiere Delle Marche launched Cantiere Delle Marche Darwin Class 102 in 2015 as a full-displacement steel explorer built for distance over speed. She lies for sale in Genoa, presented by Boatcrowd.
Build and provenance
She is hull one in the Darwin Class 102 series, a steel-hulled, aluminium-superstructure monohull built to RINA class. A full-time crew has kept her since new, and she carries a Cayman Islands flag, chosen for worldwide cruising rather than a single country's waters.
Layout and accommodation
Twelve guests sleep across five cabins: an owner's cabin forward on the lower deck, two VIP cabins aft and two twin cabins amidships. A crew of seven works from four cabins, including a captain's cabin behind the wheelhouse on the upper deck, keeping the bridge team close to the helm around the clock.
Performance and engineering
Twin 680 hp Caterpillar C18 engines cruise her at 10 knots and reach 13 knots flat out, matched to a 3,800-nautical-mile range from 40,000 litres of fuel, a pairing built for long ocean legs rather than short hops between marinas. Two 50 kW generators run in automatic parallel to cover hotel loads without a hand on the switch, and electric fin stabilisers work both at anchor and underway to keep her steady in either state.
On deck and at anchor
A sundeck jacuzzi, a bar and a dining table for guests sit above a swim platform at the stern, with teak decks running underfoot and underwater lighting turning the waterline into an evening feature. A lift connects the decks, so moving between the sundeck and the lower deck asks nothing of the knees.
Where she lies and how to see her
Cantiere Delle Marche Darwin Class 102 lies in Genoa. Boatcrowd sets up each viewing and stays for it, and once an offer is accepted, a survey and sea trial follow before the paperwork is finished.

Buying Costs
- Survey
- A buyer normally commissions a condition survey, and a sea trial, once an offer is accepted and before the sale becomes unconditional. The cost depends on her size and on where she is lifted, and it is the buyer who appoints the surveyor.
- Registration and flag
- She will be registered on a flag of the buyer's choosing, which carries its own fees and its own survey and crew requirements. Where the yacht is owned through a company, the shares rather than the vessel may change hands, which changes what is payable.
- VAT and import
- Whether VAT is due, and where, depends on the yacht's current status, her flag, the buyer's residency and where she is delivered. Where the seller has stated her VAT status, it is shown with the asking price on her page, and it is confirmed in writing before an offer is made.
- Running costs
- Crew, berthing, insurance, class and annual maintenance continue from the day she is yours. A yacht that is also chartered earns against them, and we will set out what her season has actually returned before you commit.
Estimated running costs for a yacht of her size are set out on the size page: What a yacht of 30 to 40 m costs to run.
