At this year’s Cannes Yachting Festival, innovation takes center stage with the World Premiere of the BGF45, the new hydrofoil catamaran developed by Caponnetto Hueber for Bluegame (Sanlorenzo Yachts Group).
More than just a yacht, the BGF45 represents a bold step forward in redefining what it means to experience freedom, elegance, and performance at sea. Designed with advanced hydrofoil technology, this vessel combines efficiency and sustainability with comfort and style:
- Up to 30% energy savings compared to traditional designs
- Smooth navigation and stability even in challenging sea conditions
- A design philosophy rooted in sustainability and responsible innovation
For Caponnetto Hueber, this project embodies our mission as Maritime Innovation Boosters: transferring decades of expertise in America’s Cup naval architecture and CFD simulation into solutions that shape the future of yachting and maritime mobility.
We are proud to demonstrate how cutting-edge engineering can be successfully applied to real products that reach the market. The collaboration with Bluegame on the BGF45 proves that advanced design and fluid dynamics can deliver tangible value in performance, comfort, and sustainability.
– Mario Caponnetto, Technical Director, Caponnetto Hueber

– Francis Hueber, General Manager, Caponnetto Hueber
The BGF45 is not just a premiere; it is the beginning of a new chapter in yachting, where technology, design, and sustainability converge.
