SAY Carbon Yachts GmbH (SAY), the German yacht builder renowned for its pioneering use of carbon fibre and precision performance, will unveil the all-new SAY 32 at the Venice Boat Show, marking the global debut of its most compact and versatile model to date.

Designed for those who seek uncompromising performance within a smaller footprint, the SAY 32 delivers SAY's signature blend of speed, agility and striking design in a sub-10 metre vessel. Crafted entirely from carbon fibre, its ultra-lightweight structure enhances efficiency and handling, enabling top speeds of up to 50 knots while maintaining exceptional stability and control.

Created with the realities of modern boating in mind, the SAY 32 is engineered for size-restricted waters and marinas, offering owners the freedom to explore with ease. At just 2.75 tonnes and with a beam of 2.97 metres, the model is easily towable - a rare combination of portability and high-performance capability within its class.

On board, the SAY 32 balances sportiness with comfort. A streamlined digital cockpit ensures intuitive navigation, while shock-absorbing racing seats provide comfort at speed. Generous sun lounging areas at the bow and stern, alongside flexible dining space for up to eight guests and a spacious swim platform, create an effortless setting for social days on the water.

This same versatility makes the SAY 32 ideally suited to both lake and ocean cruising, where agility, low draft and ease of handling are essential. Its debut in Venice, within close reach of Italy's most iconic waterways, underscores the model's ability to move effortlessly between inland lakes and open coastal cruising - from Lake Garda to Sardinia.

The debut of the SAY 32 signals the next phase of SAY Carbon Yachts' continued growth. The expanded portfolio opens the brand to new markets and boating environments, while remaining true to its high-performance DNA.

"SAY 32 represents a natural evolution of our approach to performance and design," said Karl Wagner, Chief Technology Officer at SAY Carbon Yachts. "We've taken everything that defines SAY: lightweight carbon construction, precision engineering and dynamic handling, and distilled it into a more compact, highly versatile yacht. The result is a boat that delivers pure driving pleasure, without compromise."

Visitors to the Venice Boat Show are invited to experience the SAY 32 firsthand and discover a new benchmark in compact performance yachting at Pontoon P1 - 130 from 27 to 31 May, and be one of the first to see the new SAY 32. Those looking to experience the newest model can book sea trial appointments during the show or schedule a post-show sea trial at Lake Garda.
