WATCH: Cantiere delle Marche Has Launched 31m RJ102 Explorer Yacht Mon Coeur

Cantiere delle Marche has launched the 31m motor yacht Mon Coeur, marking the debut of a highly customised project that brings the shipyard's larger RJ explorer yacht concept into a more compact steel-hulled platform.

Mon Coeur is part of the Cantiere delle Marche RJ102 series. Designed by Francesco Paszkowski with interiors by Giorgio M. Cassetta, the 31m Cantiere delle Marche explorer yacht offers expedition-ready cruising capability alongside warm bespoke interiors, accommodation for nine guests and a range exceeding 3,500 nautical miles.

Bringing the RJ explorer concept into a compact platform

According to Cantiere delle Marche, Mon Coeur was developed around her owners' vision, becoming the first RJ explorer yacht of this size. The superyacht carries the distinctive design language of the larger RJ range into a 31m platform, retaining the purposeful profile, expedition-focused character and steel-hulled construction that define the range. Exterior designer Francesco Paszkowski worked to preserve the commanding presence and recognisable proportions of the RJ family while creating a yacht tailored to the owners' specific requirements.

The RJ family had never ventured this compact before Mon Coeur came along. She exists because someone dreamed her and both designer Paszkowski and Cantiere delle Marche turned that dream into reality.”

Long-range cruising capability meets practical explorer living

Despite her relatively compact dimensions, Mon Coeur has been engineered with serious cruising ambitions in mind. The motor yacht carries 30,000 litres of fuel and has been designed for extended voyages, allowing owners to explore remote destinations with confidence. Her explorer yacht credentials are supported by a steel hull, substantial displacement and a layout intended to balance comfort with autonomy during long periods at sea. The yacht delivers the same 'go-anywhere' capability associated with much larger explorer yachts while remaining manageable for owner-focused cruising.

A highly personalised interior created around the owners' lifestyle

The boat's onboard spaces have been developed around the owners' intended use of the yacht as a long-term cruising base. Accommodation is provided for up to nine guests across four cabins, including an owner's suite and a guest cabin equipped with a Pullman berth, while five crew members support operations onboard. Natural materials, warm finishes and organically shaped bespoke furniture create a relaxed atmosphere throughout the yacht, complemented by a highly customised layout featuring an owner-operated galley and generous social spaces designed for intimate cruising experiences rather than large guest numbers.

Steel construction and transoceanic range support global exploration

Mon Coeur is powered by twin 533kW Caterpillar C18 Acert engines and offers a range of 3,500 nautical miles at 10 knots, giving her the long-distance capability expected of a true explorer yacht.
