Mallorca welcomes SAY Carbon Yachts’ first client lounge.

There are brands that don’t just build products—they redefine an entire category. SAY Carbon Yachts is one of them. Sleek, unmistakably modern, and engineered with a precision more commonly associated with the automotive world, the brand represents a new era of performance-driven, design-led yachting.

Founded in 2006, SAY Carbon Yachts emerged from a deep-rooted expertise in advanced composites and engineering. What began as a specialist builder focused on lightweight construction quickly evolved into a pioneer of fully carbon fibre yachts—bringing Formula 1-grade materials and thinking into the marine world. Under the technical leadership of Karl Wagner, whose background includes carbon innovation at the highest level, SAY developed a clear philosophy: reduce weight, increase efficiency, and elevate the driving experience on water. The result? Yachts widely recognised as “supercars on water.”

At the heart of SAY lies a simple but powerful idea: lighter boats perform better. By constructing hulls entirely from carbon fibre, SAY achieves vessels significantly lighter than conventional alternatives. This reduction in weight translates directly into higher speeds, lower fuel consumption, and a more responsive, exhilarating ride. Across the range—from the agile and versatile SAY 32, to the sporty SAY 42 and flagship SAY 52—this philosophy remains consistent: maximum performance with minimal weight.

But SAY is not just about speed—it’s about control. The brand’s use of advanced hull technologies, including the Petestep system, allows the yachts to ride on a cushion of air, reducing drag and softening impacts. Whether at the helm of the compact SAY 32, or the more powerful SAY 42 and 52, the experience is intuitive, precise, and remarkably smooth—even at high speeds.

Designed for the Mediterranean Lifestyle

The Mediterranean demands versatility. Boats here are extensions of how people live—used for beach hopping, long lunches, sunset cruising, and spontaneous escapes. SAY understands this. Its yachts are designed to transition seamlessly between these roles, offering both the thrill of performance and the comfort of a refined day boat.

Each model reflects this balance. 

SAY 32
The SAY 32 represents the most versatile entry into the range. Compact, lightweight, and highly efficient, it is ideally suited as both a luxury day boat and superyacht tender. Its intelligent deck layout, combined with a low profile and refined amenities, makes it perfectly adapted to Mediterranean day cruising and effortless guest transport.
SAY 42
The SAY 42 is a classic gentleman’s cruiser with increased space, power, and overnight cabin. It offers a more substantial platform for entertaining, while maintaining the brand’s signature lightweight performance and precise handling. Designed for those who prioritise driving pleasure, it embodies the “supercar on water” philosophy in its purest form.
SAY 42 Sport
The SAY 42 Sport takes the Mediterranean lifestyle a step further. With a more hospitality-focused configuration and an open bow, it delivers more space for blissful days on the water. It is the ideal choice for owners seeking a balance between sportiness and extended day use.
SAY 52
At the top of the range, the SAY 52 delivers flagship-level presence. Combining striking design with generous space and high-end finishes, it offers an elevated onboard experience without compromising on driveability. It is a statement yacht—powerful, refined, and unmistakably SAY.

With clean lines, open layouts, and a focus on usability, SAY Carbon Yachts embody a modern, minimalist aesthetic that resonates with today’s owners. The experience is less about excess and more about precision—less about size and more about how intelligently space is used. This duality—performance and lifestyle—is precisely why SAY Carbon Yachts is a natural fit for the Balearics.

Mallorca: The Next Chapter

Against this backdrop, SAY’s decision to open its first branded sales lounge in Puerto Portals feels both strategic and symbolic.

As one of the Balearics’ most prestigious marinas, Puerto Portals is a hub for discerning yacht owners and an international audience that values design, quality, and innovation. It is precisely the kind of environment where SAY’s philosophy resonates.

The new lounge will not simply be a point of sale—it will be a space where clients can engage with the brand, experience its materials, and gain insight into the engineering behind each model. It represents SAY’s commitment to the Mediterranean market and its growing presence in the region. For visitors to the marina this season, it will be hard to miss—and that is exactly the point.

Why SAY, Why Now

In a market often driven by size and scale, SAY offers something different: precision, lightness, and a focus on the driving experience. It is a brand that speaks to a new generation of owners—those who value innovation, efficiency, and design in equal measure.

As the Balearic season begins and SAY prepares to open its doors in Puerto Portals, one thing is clear: this is a brand to watch.
