Turquoise Yachts is pleased to announce the successful delivery of NB69, INFINITE JEST, on July 27, 2023. The 75-meter yacht will now embark on her maiden voyage in the Mediterranean before crossing the Atlantic.

With the recent delivery of INFINITE JEST, Turquoise now has six yachts under construction, including the 87-meter Vento and the 79-meter Toro, which is next in line for delivery. The company is also building a 42-meter sailing yacht.

Southern Wind has launched the first of a new generation of Smart Custom yachts, the SW108#01 Hybrid Gelliceaux. The yacht is characterized by outstanding performance, innovative design, and advanced technology.

The SW108#01 is a diesel-electric hybrid, which means that it can run on both diesel fuel and electricity. This gives the yacht a range of over 3,000 nautical miles, making it ideal for long-range cruising.

The yachting industry is increasingly witnessing transformative designs seamlessly blending luxury with sustainability. Feadship, a name synonymous with elite maritime luxury, has again captured the industry's attention with the launch of the 84.20-meter Obsidian, setting a new benchmark in the drive towards carbon-neutral super yachting by 2030.

Obsidian's inception comes with an impressive legacy. Commissioned to be even more energy efficient than Feadship's 2015 marvel, Savannah, Obsidian's design challenge was to reduce environmental impact by over 30% despite the looming challenges of a global pandemic. While a significant feat, the 12-month design period was marked by another major milestone: it was accomplished without in-person collaboration due to the Covid-19 lockdowns.

Turquoise Yachts is proud to share an expanded portfolio of images of the recently delivered 53m Jewels.

Jewels’ exterior, with her elegant sharp lines and clear geometry, is the design work of Miami-based DeBasto Designs, and her sumptuous interior design is the creation of London- based H2 Yacht Design in collaboration with the yacht’s owner.

At 720 GT, Jewels offer a fantastic amount of interior and exterior space commensurate with yachts that are usually much larger. She offers 8 + 1 guest staterooms, while the exterior deck areas are spacious and designed for entertaining both large groups as well as intimate gatherings. “No one will feel lost,” says Luiz DeBasto, principal of DeBasto Designs. The Sun Deck offers around-the-clock entertainment with a hot tub, sun-pads, TV, day head, bar, and acres of open space.

Unveiling The Revamped Icon

Every year, the yachting elite gather in the gleaming bay of Monaco to witness the launch of world-class vessels. This year, however, promises to be different – all thanks to the newly refitted 97m masterpiece, CARINTHIA VII.

Lürssen and Fraser, two monoliths in luxury yachting, will proudly present this stunning vessel at the 2023 Monaco Yacht Show. Originally built in 2002, CARINTHIA VII has undergone an extensive refit at Lürssen's state-of-the-art Hamburg facilities, bringing her back to the limelight.

The yacht's exterior now boasts redesigned decks with spacious lounging and living areas, exuding luxury at every corner. The added 12m/39' pool and adjacent fitness room will be a magnet for the show's attendees.

In the illustrious world of superyachts, novelty, and innovation are the new norms. The newly unveiled Baltic 111 Raven, a product of the highly reputed Baltic Yachts, captures this spirit with audacity. Set for launch from the shores of Jakobstad, Finland, the Raven signifies an evolution in luxury sailing, seamlessly blending weight control, luxury, and high-speed voyaging into one package.

The Baltic 111 Raven, designed as an ultra-lightweight, foil-assisted superyacht, challenges conventional categorization, soaring into a league of her own. Her primary function will be day sailing, but she can also undertake high-speed, long-distance passages. The blend of design, structure, and purpose gives this extraordinary yacht a unique appeal akin to a high-end supercar, according to her experienced owner's project manager, Garth Brewer of A2B Marine Projects.

A Fusion of Elegance, Sophistication, and Uniqueness

The yacht industry is known for its innovative spirit, dedication to the craft, and ability to bring dreams to life. Today, we uncover the latest remarkable feat that undoubtedly fits the bill: The striking new superyacht birthed by Van der Valk Shipyard in the Netherlands. As exclusive images and videos emerge, we witness the first-ever 34-meter launch model for a custom series christened the Pilot, a brainchild of the revered designer Cor D. Rover.

Shrouded in mystery until its recent unveiling, the Pilot graces the waterways with an elegant, encapsulating high-volume contemporary explorer. One can't help but marvel at the exquisite exterior detailing, revealed fully as her sleek hull kissed the water before her sea trials.

This week in Vlissingen, the Netherlands, the fourth Amels 60 superyacht touched water for the first time. The new 60-metre Amels 60 will be delivered to her Owner this autumn.

The fourth Amels 60 features an exterior design by Espen Øino, naval architecture by Damen Yachting, and a custom interior by two collaborating studios: Studio Indigo and Pure Living.

Since being introduced in 2019, the popular Amels 60 series continues to grow and includes an impressive six units. While the sisterships share similar features and a proven platform, each has her spirit and individuality.

The Pleasure of Speeding and the Freedom of Outdoor Life at Sea

With the first AB120 about to be delivered yet to be officially introduced to the market, Next Yacht Group announces the sale of another unit of this brand-new model, which recently joined the AB Yachts range.

"We are particularly proud of this sale," says Next Yacht Group Head of Sales Giacomo Benelli. "Our challenge is to deliver yachts that are not simply eye-catching and high-performing but also original, distinctive, and increasingly exciting. And the market is responding."

Oceanco has once again raised the bar for luxury yacht design by delivering Seven Seas. This remarkable 109-meter motoryacht showcases the extraordinary collaboration between Sinot Yacht Architecture & Design and Molly Isaksen Interiors.

Setting Seven Seas apart is her beautifully proportioned profile and the exquisite use of natural materials and glass onboard, offering guests an unparalleled outward-looking experience. The yacht's exterior is characterized by its sleek, minimalist lines, while the interior is awash in natural light thanks to the extensive use of glass. The result is a stylish and inviting yacht with a sense of spaciousness and openness that is rare on such a large vessel.

Columbus Yachts, the renowned Palumbo Superyachts brand, has unveiled its latest maritime marvel - M/Y Anjelif, a 50-meter entire custom luxury yacht. Crafted from aluminum, the Anjelif stands as a symbol of the shipbuilder's dedication to innovative yacht design, environmental sustainability, and attention to detail.

The innovative M/Y Anjelif, christened by her experienced owner, is a model of advanced marine engineering. At the heart of this luxury behemoth is a diesel-electric hybrid propulsion system, a nod to the brand's commitment to integrating sustainable technologies into its bespoke designs.

Vitters Shipyard has reached a significant milestone in the construction of Project 3093, a 44-meter sloop designed by Reichel Pugh Design. The hull has been flipped, and the yacht is now positioned on its cradles for outfitting.

Project 3093 is characterized by a modern, dynamic exterior design with active lines and timeless contemporary interior styling. The yacht features ample glass and expansive deck space, including a large covered cockpit protected from the elements. The transom area can be converted into a spacious beach club, offering direct access to the sea.

Penciled by Stefano Vafiadis, Hits the Water

Baglietto has launched the fourth unit in its popular DOM 133 series, a 40-meter yacht designed by Stefano Vafiadis. The new ship, LEE, features a spacious, luxurious interior, generous sundeck, and beach club with an infinity pool.

The main deck of LEE is designed to flow seamlessly between the interior and exterior spaces. The main saloon has floor-to-ceiling panoramic windows opening up to the aft cockpit, creating an ample, airy space. The bar also features a lovely small garden of succulent plants, adding greenery to the interior.

Viareggio, a city renowned for its breathtaking maritime backdrop, has witnessed a spectacular new addition to its waters.

This unit is a testament to luxurious innovation, a masterpiece crafted through the combined efforts of the Mangusta team and the workers who tirelessly contributed to her construction.

Overmarine Group's CEO, Maurizio Balducci, proudly reflects on the launch of this ground-breaking new model. A modern three-decker with stunningly vast glazed surfaces, the Mangusta Oceano 39 has been cleverly designed to minimize supporting structures and bulwarks, drawing its occupants closer to the allure of the sea. "This innovative vessel extends the successful Mangusta Oceano range, which includes the magnificent 44m and 50m models," he states.

Last week, the meticulously designed Baltic 110 Zemi was christened and launched in Finland, marking the culmination of a two-year building period. The occasion saw the owner and his family imparting traditional blessings by breaking a champagne bottle over her keel as Zemi tasted water for the first time.

Zemi, primarily envisioned as a luxuriously fitted performance cruising yacht, is designed to escort the owner's family and friends on sailing escapades across the globe. Named after an ancient Caribbean deity, this sea goddess is built to exacting standards in advanced carbon composites, following the innovative design of Malcolm McKeon.

In the realm of luxury charters, few can compete with the pedigree and promise of Camper & Nicholsons, the venerable establishment whose name echoes through the ages of the yachting world. With heightened anticipation and excitement, we reveal their latest jewel - the 59m Benetti-built yacht, Meamina. As we step aboard this exquisite vessel, we promise to take you on an unforgettable nautical journey.

Camper & Nicholsons are thrilled to debut their role as Charter Central Agent for the regal Meamina. This triple-deck marvel boasts expansive decks, zero-speed stabilizers, and, most tantalizingly, a coveted sun deck.

A Harmonious Blend of Luxury and Power

On the azure Adriatic shores of Ancona, Italy, a stunning new presence has recently emerged from the world-renowned ISA Yachts shipyard. As a notable addition to the Palumbo Superyachts brand, the all-new ISA GT 45 M/Y UV II is ready to redefine the essence of superyachts with its distinguished and unique features.

An event epitomizing grandeur and sophistication, it witnessed the presence of the proud Owner and the dedicated team responsible for the meticulous construction of this incredible vessel.

The Mangusta 165 REV, the jewel in the Maxi Open line's crown, sets a new benchmark in performance and style. With the heart of a racehorse, powered by four Rolls Royce engines of 2600 Hp each, paired with Kongsberg-Kamewa water jets, the vessel soars smoothly across the sea with a maximum speed of 35 knots, devoid of any noise or vibrations.

In the realm of bespoke luxury and seafaring prowess, Heesen Yachts has once again made an indelible mark. The renowned Dutch shipyard has unveiled its latest, and by far the largest, steel motor yacht - the imposing YN 20067, christened as MY Sparta. This 67-meter-long, custom-built marvel was launched on June 9, marking a new chapter in Heesen's illustrious narrative of innovation and craftsmanship.

The conception of Sparta was initiated as the 'Project Avanti' concept, which caught the eyes of many at the Monaco Yacht Show in 2018. Masterfully collaborated with Winch Design, this creation maintained its original athletic lines and elegance, with only minor enhancements made to the swimming pool. The result is a uniquely captivating, low-profile, sporty, yet elegant masterpiece, setting the waters on fire with its exceptional design.
