The new M-16 and MX-16 D-Shape represent the perfect blend of luxury, innovation, and performance, taking the maxi-RIB concept to the next level.
M-16 and MX-16 are the flagship models of the Cantieri Magazzù fleet, two 55-foot maxi-RIBs featuring the D-Shape system, designed to deliver a top-tier boating experience.
With an overall length of 16.7 meters and a fully walkaround layout, they offer complete enjoyment of the available space, featuring wide, uninterrupted passageways that ensure easy and comfortable movement on board.
The D-Shape system, combined with next-generation hull designs and advanced propulsion solutions, ensures smooth, safe, and high-performance navigation, while maintaining efficient fuel consumption and excellent control even in challenging sea conditions.
M-16 and MX-16 are not simply two models; they represent a new interpretation of the maxi-RIB concept, where design, technology, and comfort come together to create an exclusive boating experience.
M-16 | MX-16: The Evolution of the Maxi-RIB According to Magazzù
Form, functionality and pure elegance are the calling card of these extraordinary D-Shape Maxi-RIBs which, at 55 feet, represent the evolution of traditional Maxi-Ribs.
The M16 and MX-16 embody the wealth of experience gained over more than sixty years of Cantieri Magazzù’s history.
Safety, design, and the joy of life on board come together to form an almost perfect harmony, where the owner is at the heart of a project tailored to their unique needs.
D-SHAPE: SAFETY AND PLEASURE UNDERWAY
The introduction of the rigid D-Shape tubes, thanks to their distinctive D-profile design, frees up valuable space within the vessel and creates generous side decks, enabling an unparalleled level of onboard circulation.

Walkaround: Libertà di movimento, massima vivibilità
The walkaround layout is not merely a functional choice, but a true design language: it makes the deck flow more naturally, enhances the perception of space, and creates a continuous connection between the different social areas on board. On the M16 and MX16, this translates into immediate and effortless access to the cockpit, sunbathing areas, and bow lounge, all connected by wide and secure side decks.
The M16 and MX16 reinterpret the walkaround concept through the lens of a new-generation Maxi-RIB: functional, elegant, and designed for enjoying the sea without compromise, with a sense of complete openness and accessibility in all conditions.
M-16: IPS
Volvo Penta IPS 800 propulsion redefines the sailing experience aboard the M16 version.
The immediate response of the pod drives, combined with the precision of joystick control and exceptional stability across a wide range of speeds, ensures intuitive and relaxed handling, even during the most demanding passages.
The result is a feeling of complete control, with optimized fuel efficiency, reduced vibrations, and acoustic comfort that transforms every voyage into an exclusive experience.
MX-16: OUTBOARD
The MX16 outboard version is powered by three 600 hp Mercury engines, delivering a total of 1,800 horsepower and enabling a top speed of 50 knots.
The twin-step hull, designed to reduce hydrodynamic drag, ensures outstanding performance and improved fuel efficiency, delivering a safe and stable boating experience.
The outboard engines can be seamlessly integrated into the aft sunpad, providing additional space and enhanced protection for swimmers.
M-16 | MX-16: INTERIORS
Featuring two double cabins, a convertible dinette, and two separate bathrooms, the lower-deck layout is exceptionally versatile, making it ideal for both short excursions and extended cruises.
The MX16 outboard version also offers the option of a third aft crew cabin, making it the perfect choice for owners seeking both practicality and luxury.
