The American owners of *Calex* had previously owned a series of Westports, but when they envisioned a “50-metre on steroids,” Westport was unable to fulfill the request.

*Resilience* represents an ambitious project that has been years in the making and stands as the largest yacht launched by ISA Yachts since its acquisition by Palumbo Superyachts in 2016.
