This 18 meters yacht was designed around a single question : what if a dayboat didn’t have to compromise? Wide open decks for long afternoons at anchor. Full-height cabins below that feel like a proper overnight destination. A silhouette that earns its place on the water without asking for attention.

 The profile is where the design language of AERI becomes most legible: the long, uninterrupted hull, the continuous graphic line running bow to stern, the hardtop that sits as a natural extension of the superstructure rather than an afterthought.

At 18 metres, proportion is everything. Too much volume and you lose the sport. Too little and the comfort disappears below the waterline. SOLANO sits exactly where it should

The deck layout is designed to be read at a glance: aft sunpads that open toward the sea, a cockpit that flows naturally into the helm, and a bow that tapers with purpose. No wasted space. No decorative gesture without function.

What you see from here is exactly what was intended : a boat organised around the way people actually live on the water.

This is what a dayboat looks like when you refuse to treat the lower deck as secondary. One master cabin, with standing headroom, proper bed, and a material palette that belongs in a much larger yacht.

Dark oxidised panels. Cream upholstery. Light, used sparingly, as an architectural element rather than a utility.
