PRESTIGE Dealer in Quebec | Marine Daniel Masson & Fils
PRESTIGE YACHTS DEALER IN QUEBEC | WHY CHOOSE MARINE DANIEL MASSON & FILS?
MARINE DANIEL MASSON & FILS — AUTHORIZED PRESTIGE YACHTS DEALER IN QUEBEC
Purchasing a PRESTIGE yacht involves far more than choosing a model and a list of options. It requires a clear understanding of how the yacht will be used: cruising as a couple or with family, extended voyages, entertaining guests, spending longer periods at anchor, desired autonomy, and the owner’s level of involvement in handling the yacht.
This is the perspective from which Marine Daniel Masson & Fils, an authorized PRESTIGE Yachts dealer in Quebec located in Saint-Paul-de-l’Île-aux-Noix, assists its clients.
Our role is simple: to help you choose the right PRESTIGE and configure it intelligently for the way you intend to cruise.
A remarkably well-equipped yacht is not necessarily a remarkably well-configured yacht. Every system, every option and every layout choice should serve a genuine purpose for its owner.
Expertise lies in knowing the difference.

A CONFIGURATION DESIGNED AROUND THE OWNER
A modern yacht has become a complex technological environment in which propulsion, joystick controls, navigation electronics, electrical management, batteries, generator, air conditioning, heating, hydraulic systems and comfort equipment all work together.
Equipment selection therefore cannot be separated from the way the yacht is intended to be used.
An owner who regularly operates the yacht personally will not have the same priorities as one who cruises with a crew. Someone planning to spend several days at anchor may place greater importance on energy autonomy, while an owner who frequently changes destinations may prioritize other aspects related to navigation and performance.
At Marine Daniel Masson & Fils, our role is to translate these needs into a coherent configuration, rather than simply adding more options.
The best equipment is the equipment whose value you will still appreciate many years after delivery.
BEING A PRESTIGE DEALER ALSO MEANS KNOWING HOW TO CARE FOR THE YACHT
A dealer’s responsibility does not end when the yacht is sold.
When you represent a brand, you must also be capable of caring for the yachts you put on the water.
That means understanding their systems, following the manufacturer’s technical procedures, staying current with technical bulletins and recall campaigns, implementing required corrections, and being able to diagnose both mechanical and electronic issues.
This responsibility has become even more important as yacht technology continues to evolve.
Today, an issue may originate from an engine, propulsion system, joystick, electronic network, digital control system or several interconnected systems communicating with one another.
It is no longer enough to understand mechanical repairs alone.
You must be able to understand the yacht as a complete system.
DANNY MASSON — PRESTIGE TECHNICAL EXPERTISE AT MDM
This is precisely where the expertise of Danny Masson, Chief Mechanical Technician at Marine Daniel Masson & Fils, becomes especially valuable.
His in-depth knowledge of PRESTIGE yachts, their powertrains and onboard systems allows him to work far beyond traditional mechanical service.
Diagnostics, system configuration, troubleshooting electronic issues, following technical recommendations, recall campaigns, software updates and implementing manufacturer-prescribed corrections are all part of this expertise.
This level of knowledge makes Danny Masson a leading technical resource for PRESTIGE owners supported by Marine Daniel Masson & Fils.
For the owner, this means being able to rely on a team that does not simply know the yacht at the time of sale, but also understands how to maintain it, diagnose it and intervene when a situation requires attention.
A RELATIONSHIP THAT BEGINS BEFORE THE PURCHASE AND CONTINUES AFTER DELIVERY
This continuity is what defines our approach.
Marine Daniel Masson & Fils supports every PRESTIGE project from the initial planning stage: model selection, configuration, delivery, orientation, maintenance and technical support.
Because a dealer should not simply know how to sell you a yacht.
They should be able to support you throughout the years you own it.
At Marine Daniel Masson & Fils, our responsibility does not end when the yacht is sold. It truly begins when the owner takes the helm.
PRESTIGE M-LINE AND F-LINE — TWO DIFFERENT WAYS TO EXPERIENCE YACHTING
At PRESTIGE, choosing between an M-Line and an F-Line is not simply a matter of comparing lengths, horsepower or the number of cabins.
The two ranges are built around fundamentally different architectures and respond to distinctly different ways of experiencing yachting.
The M-Line, with its power multihull architecture, emphasizes generous volumes, stability, beam and a truly residential approach to life onboard.
The F-Line, built around a monohull flybridge design, offers more dynamic cruising, higher cruising speeds and more traditional proportions for marina infrastructure.
Both carry the PRESTIGE DNA.
But they are not necessarily designed for the same type of owner.
PRESTIGE M-LINE — SPACE TAKES ON A NEW DIMENSION
The defining characteristic of the M-Line is its twin-hull architecture.
Compared with a monohull yacht of similar length, this configuration provides significantly greater beam.
The difference is immediately noticeable onboard: more living space, larger common areas, improved separation between private spaces and entertaining areas, as well as impressive stability, particularly appreciated while at anchor.
This is why an M-Line should never be evaluated solely on its length.
On these yachts, beam completely changes the perception of space.
The range includes the PRESTIGE M6, M7 and M8 EVO.
PRESTIGE M6 — MULTIHULL LIVING IN AN APPROXIMATELY 15-METRE FORMAT
The PRESTIGE M6 measures approximately 14.8 metres in length with a 6-metre beam and is powered by twin Volvo D6 380 hp V-Drive engines.
It is precisely this 6-metre beam that allows the M6 to stand apart.
In a yacht measuring less than 15 metres, PRESTIGE succeeds in creating a truly residential feeling, with a generous owner’s suite, open entertaining spaces and excellent separation between the different living areas.
The M6 also features a flybridge, allowing it to combine the advantages of multihull architecture with a substantial additional outdoor living space.
Its philosophy places greater emphasis on comfort, stability, volume and extended time onboard than on achieving maximum speed.
WHO IS THE M6 FOR?
The owner who wants substantial space without necessarily moving up to a 60- or 70-foot yacht.
It is a particularly compelling choice for a couple or family looking to cruise for several days, entertain comfortably and fully enjoy the yacht once at anchor.
PRESTIGE M7 — GREATER AUTONOMY AND MORE SEPARATION BETWEEN LIVING SPACES
With the M7, PRESTIGE moves into another dimension.
It measures approximately 17.9 metres in length with a 7.5-metre beam and is powered by twin Volvo D8 550 hp engines.
This increase in both beam and length makes it possible to create nearly 200 m² of living space and provide an even more refined separation between owners, guests and areas dedicated to the skipper.
The approximately 20 m² owner’s suite becomes a true private apartment onboard, while the yacht’s autonomy and capabilities increase significantly compared with the M6.
The M7 is therefore particularly appealing to owners planning longer cruises and those who wish to host several guests without compromising their privacy.
WHO IS THE M7 FOR?
The owner who truly wants to make the yacht a second home.
The M7 marks the transition between a yacht primarily intended for shorter getaways and one capable of comfortably accommodating owners and guests for significantly longer periods.
PRESTIGE M8 EVO — THE GRAND YACHT EXPERIENCE
At nearly 20 metres in length with an 8.85-metre beam, the PRESTIGE M8 EVO enters an entirely different category.
At this scale, multihull architecture allows for a much clearer separation between the owners’ living spaces, guest areas and functions dedicated to the crew.
The owner’s suite notably benefits from private access from the main deck, while the flybridge spans almost the full beam of the yacht and becomes a true panoramic terrace.
The M8 EVO is also designed for extended stays and an ownership experience closer to that of a large yacht, with significantly greater autonomy, capabilities and onboard organization.
WHO IS THE M8 EVO FOR?
The owner seeking a true luxury residence on the water, with expansive spaces, a high degree of independence between occupants and the ability to integrate crew more naturally.
The M8 EVO no longer simply aims to provide a comfortable yacht.
It seeks to recreate the qualities of a high-end residence on the water.
HOW TO CHOOSE BETWEEN THE M6, M7 AND M8 EVO
The decision depends less on a few additional metres than on how the yacht will actually be lived in.
The M6 offers an excellent balance between overall dimensions and usable living space.
The M7 adds greater autonomy and more separation between owners, guests and skipper.
The M8 EVO takes this concept much further and truly enters the world of large yachts designed to accommodate crew.
The more time you plan to spend onboard, the more significant the differences between these three models become.
PRESTIGE F-LINE — THE FLYBRIDGE YACHT FOR THOSE WHO LOVE TO CRUISE
The F-Line follows a different philosophy.
Here, PRESTIGE retains the architecture of a monohull flybridge yacht and combines it with modern hull designs, powerful engines and extensive use of Volvo IPS propulsion.
The hull is significantly narrower than that of an M-Line yacht of comparable length.
This difference provides less interior beam, but promotes more dynamic cruising, higher cruising speeds and more conventional dimensions for marina infrastructure.
At the same time, the flybridge creates a genuine additional living area by making full use of the yacht’s vertical space.
The new-generation F-Line models considered here include the PRESTIGE F4.3, F4.9, F5.7 and F6.7.
PRESTIGE F4.3 — THE ENTRY POINT INTO THE NEW GENERATION F-LINE
The PRESTIGE F4.3 is the entry point into the new-generation F-Line.
At approximately 13.1 metres in length with a 4.1-metre beam, it retains the PRESTIGE DNA in a more compact format: flybridge, bright interiors, effortless circulation and genuinely distinct living areas.
Powered by twin Volvo D6 440 hp V-Drive engines, it offers a cruising speed of approximately 22 knots and can reach nearly 30 knots.
These performance figures make it particularly appealing to owners who genuinely enjoy cruising and visiting multiple destinations.
Despite its relatively compact dimensions, the F4.3 offers a true flybridge, a hydraulic swim platform and layouts designed for comfortably enjoying several days onboard.
WHO IS THE F4.3 FOR?
The F4.3 is designed for the owner who wants to enter the PRESTIGE world with a yacht that is easier to handle, while retaining the comfort, flybridge and performance of a true cruising yacht.
Compact, capable and versatile, it is an excellent entry point into the F-Line.
PRESTIGE F4.9 — THE BALANCE
The PRESTIGE F4.9 measures approximately 15.2 metres in length with a 4.5-metre beam.
Its twin Volvo IPS 650 480 hp engines allow it to cruise at approximately 21 knots and reach a top speed of around 28 knots.
These performance figures already illustrate one of the major differences compared with the M-Line.
The F4.9 is designed for an owner who not only wants to enjoy the yacht at anchor, but also intends to regularly cover significant distances between destinations.
Onboard, PRESTIGE nevertheless retains its residential philosophy: a generous flybridge, an open galley connected to the entertaining spaces and an owner’s suite carefully separated from the technical areas.
WHO IS THE F4.9 FOR?
The owner looking for a yacht that can be comfortably operated personally, while offering enough space for entertaining and enough performance to explore multiple destinations.
It is arguably one of the most balanced models in the range.
PRESTIGE F5.7 — DESIGNED TO GO FURTHER
The PRESTIGE F5.7 measures approximately 17.3 metres in length with a 4.7-metre beam.
It is powered by twin Volvo IPS 800 600 hp engines, offering a cruising speed of approximately 23 knots.
Compared with the F4.9, it provides more space, but more importantly, greater autonomy and a more sophisticated organization of the different living areas.
The foredeck becomes a true outdoor lounge, the flybridge takes on the proportions of a terrace and the owner’s suite gains greater independence.
The F5.7 therefore retains the dynamic character of the F-Line while gradually approaching the experience of a yacht designed for considerably longer cruises.
WHO IS THE F5.7 FOR?
The owner who wants to travel farther, entertain comfortably and spend several days onboard without giving up the performance and cruising pleasure of a monohull yacht.
PRESTIGE F6.7 — THE FLAGSHIP OF THE NEW GENERATION F-LINE
At approximately 20.5 metres in length, the PRESTIGE F6.7 represents the pinnacle of the new-generation F-Line.
It can be equipped with twin Volvo IPS 1350 engines producing 1,000 hp each, for a combined output of up to 2,000 hp.
Its approximately 26 m² flybridge alone provides a remarkable outdoor entertaining area, while the lower deck can accommodate three or four cabins depending on the configuration.
At this level, PRESTIGE also introduces greater possibilities for crew accommodations while taking autonomy, comfort and customization even further.
WHO IS THE F6.7 FOR?
The owner seeking the volume and comfort of a large yacht while retaining the dynamic character, mobility and cruising experience that define the F-Line.
HOW TO CHOOSE BETWEEN THE F4.3, F4.9, F5.7 AND F6.7
The F4.3 is the entry point into the new-generation F-Line. More compact and easier to handle, it retains a true flybridge, impressive performance and all the comfort required to enjoy several days onboard.
The F4.9 offers an excellent balance between dimensions, living space and performance. It is particularly well suited to owners who wish to operate the yacht themselves while benefiting from additional space for entertaining and travelling.
The F5.7 adds another level of volume, autonomy and comfort. It is particularly well suited to longer cruises and owners who regularly entertain family and friends.
The F6.7 takes the F-Line into the world of the large yacht, with more generous spaces, greater layout possibilities and an organization better suited to extended stays and the potential presence of crew.
The progression is therefore natural:
the F4.3 emphasizes manoeuvrability, the F4.9 balance, the F5.7 autonomy and the F6.7 the most complete experience in the range.
M-LINE OR F-LINE — WHICH ONE IS RIGHT FOR YOU?
The difference between the two ranges becomes particularly clear when comparing their architecture, beam and intended purpose.
The F-Line begins with the F4.3, an approximately 13-metre yacht focused on manoeuvrability, performance and ease of operation.
It offers an excellent entry point into the PRESTIGE world for an owner who wants to operate the yacht personally, enjoy a genuine flybridge and maintain relatively manageable overall dimensions.
When comparing the M6 and F4.9, two yachts measuring approximately 15 metres, the difference in philosophy becomes even clearer.
The M6 offers approximately 6 metres of beam, compared with around 4.5 metres for the F4.9.
The M6 uses that additional beam to maximize volume, stability and onboard living, while the F4.9 favours a narrower architecture, more dynamic cruising and higher cruising speeds.
The same principle continues further up the ranges.
The M7, with approximately 7.5 metres of beam, focuses on generous volumes, autonomy and extended stays onboard, while the significantly narrower F5.7 maintains a philosophy more focused on travelling, performance and versatility.
At the top of the ranges, the M8 EVO and F6.7 both approach 20 metres in length.
Yet the M8 EVO measures nearly 8.9 metres in beam, compared with approximately 5.2 metres for the F6.7.
Two yachts of comparable length can therefore provide completely different ownership experiences.
THE M-LINE MAY BE THE BETTER CHOICE IF…
You place particular importance on volume, stability, extended stays, large private spaces and life at anchor.
You are looking for a more residential experience, where the yacht truly becomes a second home on the water.
THE F-LINE MAY BE THE BETTER CHOICE IF…
You want to cruise more frequently, change destinations regularly, maintain higher cruising speeds and retain more conventional dimensions for marina infrastructure.
You are looking for the experience of a more dynamic flybridge yacht, with more direct handling and exceptional versatility between cruising and life onboard.
Within the F-Line, the progression is natural: the F4.3 emphasizes manoeuvrability, the F4.9 balance, the F5.7 autonomy and the F6.7 the grand-yacht experience.
Within the M-Line, the M6 emphasizes volume in an approximately 15-metre format, the M7 adds greater autonomy and separation between living areas, while the M8 EVO takes this philosophy toward a true residential grand-yacht experience.
THE RIGHT PRESTIGE IS NOT NECESSARILY THE LARGEST
This is probably the most important point to remember.
Moving from an M6 to an M7, from an F4.9 to an F5.7, or even from an F-Line to an M-Line should never be viewed simply as moving up in the range.
Each model responds to a different cruising program.
The best PRESTIGE will be the one whose dimensions, architecture, autonomy and living spaces naturally match the way you want to experience life on the water.
This is precisely where the guidance of a dealer who truly understands the different ranges becomes especially valuable.
At Marine Daniel Masson & Fils, our role is to help you understand these differences so that your PRESTIGE is not simply impressive on delivery day, but perfectly suited to the way you cruise for many years to come.

Why choose Marine Daniel Masson & Fils when purchasing a PRESTIGE yacht?
Marine Daniel Masson & Fils takes an approach based on understanding the owner’s project before recommending a yacht.
The type of cruising, length of stays onboard, number of people who will regularly accompany the owner, entertaining habits, autonomy requirements and expectations regarding comfort are all considered when guiding the selection of the yacht and its configuration.
This approach makes it possible to recommend a yacht according to how it will actually be used rather than simply according to a list of equipment.
Why is it important to work with an authorized PRESTIGE dealer?
A modern yacht brings together numerous technical systems and offers many configuration possibilities.
One of the dealer’s responsibilities is to help the owner understand the different options offered by the manufacturer and determine which ones genuinely correspond to the owner’s project.
This expertise becomes particularly important when considering propulsion, navigation equipment, onboard energy management, comfort, layout and the various available options.
What is the difference between the PRESTIGE M-Line and PRESTIGE F-Line?
The primary difference lies in their architecture and the ownership experience it creates.
The M-Line uses power multihull architecture. It places particular emphasis on volume, stability, generous beam and a highly residential approach to life onboard.
The F-Line remains faithful to the flybridge yacht architecture. It emphasizes versatility, multiple living areas, cruising enjoyment and a balance between refined interiors and outdoor spaces.
The choice therefore depends primarily on how the owner intends to use the yacht.
Which models make up the PRESTIGE M-Line range?
The M-Line range includes the PRESTIGE M6, M7 and M8 EVO.
Dimensions and layout possibilities evolve from one model to the next, but all share a philosophy built around multihull architecture, generous volume, stability and quality of life onboard.
Which models are part of the new-generation PRESTIGE F-Line?
The new-generation F-Line includes the PRESTIGE F4.3, F4.9, F5.7 and F6.7.
These models share an approach in which natural light, effortless circulation, quality of space and flybridge integration all play an important role.
Is a PRESTIGE M-Line suitable for extended stays onboard?
The architecture of the M-Line is particularly well suited to extended time onboard.
Its volume, beam, stability and the ability to separate different living areas can be especially appreciated when a family or several guests spend multiple days on the yacht.
The choice should nevertheless always be made according to the owner’s specific expectations and intended cruising program.
Why choose a PRESTIGE F-Line?
The F-Line is particularly well suited to owners who appreciate the experience of a flybridge yacht.
It combines multiple living areas, a flybridge that functions as a true outdoor living space, bright interiors and excellent versatility between cruising, entertaining and extended stays onboard.
It is therefore a particularly compelling choice for those who want to retain the traditional motor-yacht experience while benefiting from PRESTIGE’s contemporary approach.
Can a PRESTIGE yacht be ordered and configured in Quebec?
Yes.
Depending on the model, availability and the possibilities offered by the manufacturer, a PRESTIGE yacht can be ordered and configured according to the future owner’s project.
This stage deserves careful consideration, because the decisions made when ordering the yacht will have a direct impact on how it is ultimately used.
Marine Daniel Masson & Fils can assist the owner throughout this process to create a configuration that is coherent with their needs.
Does Marine Daniel Masson & Fils provide support after delivery?
Yes.
Our support does not end when the owner takes possession of the yacht.
Orientation, understanding the yacht’s systems, maintenance and technical follow-up are all integral parts of the ownership experience.
This continuity allows the owner to benefit from a team that understands both the yacht and the owner’s project beyond the initial transaction.
Where can I meet Marine Daniel Masson & Fils to discuss a PRESTIGE project?
Marine Daniel Masson & Fils is located in Saint-Paul-de-l’Île-aux-Noix, Quebec.
Whether you are considering an acquisition, placing an order, discovering a particular model or exploring a specific configuration, our team can guide you through a personalized process.
How can I determine which PRESTIGE yacht is truly right for me?
The best approach begins by defining how the yacht will be used.
An owner who prioritizes extended time at anchor and generous living spaces may naturally be drawn to certain characteristics of the M-Line.
Someone looking for the versatility of a flybridge yacht may instead identify more closely with the F-Line.
The length of stays, number of people onboard, entertaining habits, autonomy requirements and importance placed on the different living areas should then be considered.
From these elements, it becomes possible to select a model with far greater precision.
The best PRESTIGE yacht is not simply the one that offers the most. It is the one whose architecture, equipment and qualities most closely match the way its owner wants to experience life on the water.
