Benetti B.Now 50M Asani: A Luxurious Oasis Deck Superyacht

A Divine Sanctuary From Every Perspective

Sanctuary is subjective. To some, it might be a riveting supercar drive executing the curves and climbs of Romania’s Transalpina. To others, it could be a sublime collection of days at a surf-focused villa on Sumba. To still others, it might entail a cultural, culinary, beachy tour of Türkiye’s Black Sea intricate coastline.

Those who refuse to choose, who want all of the above, have the privilege of enjoying all scenarios on board the Benetti 50-meter B.Now Oasis Deck Asani. One part Zen-inspired home upon the water, one part sleek automotive detail, and one part adventurous scout, ready to cruise wherever the course is set, Asani agreeably provides for all of the above.

Southern Wind 96 Liberty: A Masterpiece of Speed, Luxury & Innovation

The physics of sailing uses the same principles and concepts whether sailing a small dinghy or a large superyacht. Forces, moments, vectors, fluid dynamics, and trigonometry all interact to move the boat forward. The difference, however, is in the details, and the Southern Wind 96 Liberty puts physics to work brilliantly.

Liberty is the fifth yacht in Southern Wind’s 96 series, launched in April of 2024. The first was Sorceress, designed for an owner seeking a big performance yacht capable of transoceanic racing and bluewater cruising. The second was Seatius, gathering attention and awards for innovative interiors. The third was Ammonite, the first 96 able to tuck in a 3.95-meter tender into the garage. The fourth was Nyumba, the first Southern Wind yacht with hybrid propulsion. Which brings us to Liberty. What’s special about this yacht? Plenty.

A smart custom build, Southern Wind project manager Niki Jennings says of Liberty, “This is the kind of project Southern Wind likes to build. The owner’s brief was so close to our own principles and values of elegant performance cruisers that are both practical and seaworthy.”

Liberty Captain Graeme Robertson adds, “You can see by her lines that she wants to go fast.”

Four Seasons Los Cabos: A Luxurious East Cape Retreat by the Sea

An Oasis of Serenity on the East Cape

Tucked away on the secluded shores of the Baja Peninsula’s East Cape, Four Seasons Resort Los Cabos at Costa Palmas is a sanctuary where the desert meets the sea in perfect harmony.

Lamborghini Temerario: A 10,000 RPM Hybrid Supercar Redefining Speed

The New Breed of Lamborghini

For decades, Lamborghini has thrived on defiance. While others pursued efficiency, Sant’Agata clung to massive, naturally aspirated engines that bellowed their presence through titanium exhausts. Lamborghini’s DNA has always been about excess—sharp angles, outrageous soundtracks, and power figures that stretch belief. But the world has changed, and so must Lamborghini.

Enter the Temerario, a machine that sits at the intersection of Lamborghini’s untamed past and its electrified future. It swaps the Huracán’s iconic V10 for a 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8, paired with three electric motors for a total output of 920 CV. More shocking? It revs to 10,000 rpm—a number normally reserved for naturally aspirated race engines.

Lamborghini doesn’t build pretty cars. It builds weapons. Sculpted by function yet dripping with aggression, the Temerario refines that tradition. Led by Mitja Borkert, Lamborghini’s design team crafted a shape that is more compact, muscular, and aerodynamically efficient than anything before it.
