The first model in Bluegame’s BGF range will receive its world debut at the Cannes Yachting Festival 2025.
The new BGF45 multihull follows on from the shipyard’s BGM model and is Bluegame’s latest evolution in the multihull segment.
The multihull draws on the knowledge gained from the BGH-HSV – the world’s first hydrogen-powered foiling chase boat which reached speeds of 50 knots with zero emissions at the 37th America’s Cup.
Bluegame, a Sanlorenzo Group brand, has now evolved the technology into the recreational yachting arena.
Conventional yacht design challenged
The shipyard has continued to collaborate with hydrodynamics specialists Mario Caponnetto and Francis Hueber who worked closely with the Bluegame team on the BGH-HSV project.
Their role in this latest project has included helping to refine the hull design and push its performance.
“The BGF range definitively challenges conventional yacht design by combining advanced engineering with the brand’s bold DNA,” said a Bluegame spokesperson.
“It redefines versatility, space, and performance, setting a new benchmark for next-generation yachts: daring, efficient, and intimately connected to the sea.”
Fuel efficiency
The spokesperson added: “The BGF45 represents a significant advancement in the multihull segment, achieving outstanding results through strategic collaborations with leading industry partners such as Volvo, Garmin, and Siemens-Innovative Technology Partner.”
Features of the new BGF45 include a foil-assisted system located between the twin hulls designed to reduce drag, boost speed, stability, and fuel efficiency by more than 40%.
The 45ft multihull is powered by twin Volvo Penta IPS engines.
Open layout
The new model has been designed by Luca Santella and Zuccon International Project, to maximise the available space, offering an open layout with two cabins and a versatile third room inside.
The exterior features a sundeck and a beach area designed to enhance an open-air onboard lifestyle.
The Cannes Yachting Festival takes place from 9 to 14 September 2025.
