Wider is a unique new shipyard, established in 2010 on an evolutionary idea by Tilli Antonelli, founder and former President of Pershing and one of the men who have written a substantial chapter of international nautical history. Wider designs, produces and sells both yachts in composite material and superyachts in aluminium, focussing on a high performance combined with low consumption and a new concept for life on-board. The company offers evolutionary solutions compared with those currently on the market, and stands out by creating unexpected, original layouts. Its breakthrough products shy away from existing layouts, creating not only a new kind of yacht, but an entirely new category, too: the Wider Cockpit open yacht and the Wider Superyacht. Both aim for cutting-edge excellence. The Wider adventure exploded in 2010 bringing to light the very first model, WIDER 42'. This yacht became the prototype, forerunner and symbol of the company as well as the ensign of the evolutionary leap Wider had given its nautical product, accomplishing much in terms of conceptual and technological innovation. Paolo Favilla, formerly General Manager of Grandi Navi Veloci and CEO of Pershing at Antonelli's side in 2009, flanks him in this entrepreneurial challenge In 2012, Wider announced some important news: its partnership with Tan Sri Lim Kok Thay, a distinguished entrepreneur who spearheads the Genting Group, one of Asia's most dynamic conglomerates. Composite yachts are built in a 10,000m2 structure in Castelvecchio di Monte Porzio which assembles the parts produced by top specialists in the sector, paying painstaking attention to detail, that are monitored by Team Wider design. The production of aluminium Superyachts, on the other hand, takes place at the Ancona facility, in a structure of around 2500m2 located near the water. The site was carefully chosen in order to use the skills of those builders in the area, which specialize in processing aluminium. http://www.wider-yachts.com/
