ICE Yachts unveils ICE80 Blue Water and ICE70 Sport at Cannes Yachting Festival

ICE Yachts will present two world‑premiere sailing yachts at the 2026 Cannes Yachting Festival, scheduled for 8‑13 September in Cannes, France. The flagship ICE80 Blue Water is marketed as a fast blue‑water cruiser that blends high average passage speeds with upscale comfort for long voyages. Its hull and internal structure are built from carbon fibre using vacuum infusion and epoxy resin, and it features a retractable telescopic keel supplied by APM, a 48 V electrical system, and a JP3 carbon‑fibre rudder shaft. The interior combines warm timber joinery with spacious saloon, galley and owner’s cabin layouts.

The ICE70 Sport, the latest model in ICE Yachts’ sports line, targets owners seeking race‑level performance and fast cruising. It shares the carbon‑fibre construction and sleek hull lines of the ICE80, but is tuned for higher sail‑plan efficiency and sportier handling. Both yachts were developed in close collaboration with Italian design studio Felci Yacht Design, continuing a long‑standing partnership between the two firms.
