<a href="http://www.benettiyachts.it/" target="_blank">Benetti</a> have been the worlds largest producer of megayachts over 24m (78ft) in length for 14 consecutive years have just revealed they have burst into the over 90m (295ft) megayacht sector revealing the advanced state of production of a 90m megayacht and the double sale of two megayachts over 100m (328ft) in length.<br />
<br />
The two new megayachts will be built at their Leghorn facilities, well known for their size, technology, and available construction slots where 14 over 50m long megayachts are currently under construction.<br />
<br />
Megayacht Global will update all of our readers regarding the progression of the work on these megayachts over the coming months.Unknownnoreply@blogger.com7tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-575892201620507237.post-82165427502428702912014-09-14T12:41:00.000+01:002014-09-14T12:41:08.549+01:00The New "M/Y Kismet" Completes Sea Trials<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
Project Global, soon to be named <i>"Kismet"</i> went on sea trials for three days last month. She measures 95m (312ft) and is built for a repeat and very experienced client, who up graded
from his former 68m (223ft) <a href="http://www.lurssen.com/" target="_blank">Lurssen</a> megayacht which was also previously named Kismet. <br />
<br />
Under optimal weather conditions, functional tests such as the propulsion plant, pump jet, trials of the thruster, steering system, tests of the cooling, lubrication and fuel system as well as the freshwater treatment units were carried out, as well as the smoke test in the engine room and the blackout tests The main engines were fine tuned as were the stabilizers together with the trials for the emergency and zero speed functions. <br />
<br />
The manoeuvring tests were executed to full satisfaction and all other tests carried out on board achieved the expected results. <i>"She is an extraordinarily quiet yacht with no vibrations"</i>, comments the technical team, much to the pleasure of the owner. <br />
<br />
She is now back in the yard with the final few projects being finished off before her delivery this month.<br />

Recently in Antalya, Turkey five years after delivering M/Y <i>"Africa"</i> <a href="http://www.sunriseyachts.com/" target="_blank">Sunrise Yachts</a> confirms the launching of her sister ship this week, <i>"Project Sunset - Hull 182"</i>. The yacht's name will remain confidential until delivery next month to its North American client. <br />
<br />
She measures 45m (148ft) in length and is a three deck, deep sea, full displacement, transatlantic, steel hull and aluminium superstructure luxury megayacht, built to operate for private use or charter in all the seas and oceans around the world. <br />
<br />
Her interior design was created by the talent of Nantes based Franck Darnet Design, who had previously designed the interior for <i>"Africa"</i>. Similar to her sister she has dark tropical woods, contemporary and elegant decor will feature light veneers and a bright colour scheme. <br />
<br />
Guillaume Roché, the Sunrise Yachts CEO, stated: <i>"Just like M/Y "Africa" was one of the "star" yachts when introduced at the Monaco Yacht Show, we are confident that the new 45m will be one of the most notable yachts delivered worldwide this year in its category. We believe that the yacht further demonstrates our commitment to excellence and to continually improving our standards while remaining a competitive alternative to quality European builders." </i><br />
<br />
She will be presented to the public at the Monaco Yacht Show, September 24th - 27th, 2014 and at the Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show, October 30th to November 3rd, 2014.

<a href="http://oceanicyachts-shipyard.com/" target="_blank">Oceanic Yachts</a> in Italy have just launched hull #1 in their ultra modern new line of explorer the 90' STS which was sold last January 2014. She will make its world debut in September during the Cannes Yachting Festival 2014 which runs from the 9th -14th. <br />
<br />
She measures a total length of 27.4m (90ft). Her accommodation will include an upper deck owner's suite with private terrace and a VIP plus two guest cabins located on the lower deck. The interior design was undertaken by the in-house design studio in close collaboration with the owner. The primary timber used throughout consists of limed Grey Oak, Macassar Ebony, Wenge, lacquered wood and wood floors. <br />
<br />
Her convertible aft deck has oversized modular sofas, the capability to stow a 6.50m diesel powered SACS tender while two 3-seater personal water-crafts, two Seabobs and one JetLev will be stored in the transom garage. An additional stand-up JetSki will be kept on the deck, right under the 1.5 ton capacity crane. This is plenty of toys for the owner and guests to enjoy.<br />
<br />
She maintains the brand new philosophy at Oceanic Yachts whose main features are: extended outdoor and indoor living volumes, ability to carry large toys and tenders, high performance and ability to navigate at economic speed with low fuel consumption, resulting in reduced overall operating costs.<br />

Feadship have launched the stunning 60m (197ft) superyacht <i>"ROCK.IT"</i>. She was created for an experienced owner who has chartered Feadships in the past. She is fast from the outside, cosy on the inside and features the first time application on a superyacht of an innovative control and manoeuvring system developed for naval applications.<br />
<br />
<i>"Each Feadship is unique and no two Feadship owners are the same,"</i> comments Feadship director Henk de Vries to an audience of several hundred guests at the launching ceremony. <i>"It is our privilege at Feadship to create the most amazing yachts on the oceans for the most fascinating people on the planet, and it has been an amazing and sometimes rollercoaster ride to partner with the owner of ROCK.IT. During his many visits to the yard, we had terrific fun with this unconventional and no-compromise client. His between-your-eyes honesty and tremendous respect for and appreciation of Feadship craftsmanship pushed us to new heights. This is the epitome of the Feadship experience, which encompasses the entire design and construction process. ROCK.IT is a true 21st-century Feadship: stunning aesthetic design nestled in a super- stable oceangoing package that will truly rock the waves."</i><br />
<br />

<br />
It takes only takes a few glances at her to see the challenge faced by the yard, the designers and naval architects from Sinot Yacht Design and Feadship. They had to pull out all the stops to realise the owner's vision of a striking, innovative and sporty look. <i>"ROCK.IT is very sleek and bold without being pretentious,"</i> explained exterior designer Sander Sinot. <i>"A natural flow of lines and surfaces makes the yacht breathe speed and exude elegance."</i><br />
<br />
The awesomeness continues inside, where she has dark precious woods and light stones are blended with a detailed classic modern interior. One of the most striking features is the skylight in the sun deck canopy, which dims automatically depending on the strength of the sunlight. This allows for an open feel while keeping the comfort levels.<br />

<br />
She contains cutting edge technology, as in the installation of a unique control system that includes a semi DP autopilot system. This will allow her to keep her heading at anchor, hovering on the main engine and the thrusters. Optimal use of the various manoeuvring modes is made by the use of a three axis steering joystick with a rotational factor.<br />
<br />
<i>"I was willing to accept this new system because it comes from a proven military background,"</i> said ROCK.IT's captain. <i>"I'm also glad we did this with Feadship as it requires a high degree of confidence in the hardware and the people. This manoeuvring system represents a real step towards the future. To make it happen at this point in time, took real vision and considerable skill."</i>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-575892201620507237.post-85901815698716069472014-08-19T21:21:00.001+01:002014-08-19T21:21:15.177+01:00Baltic Yachts Sign New 40m<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<a href="http://www.balticyachts.fi/" target="_blank">Baltic Yachts</a> announced the signing of a custom 40m (130ft) high performance cruising superyacht. To date Baltic Yachts have delivered nine fully custom yachts above 100ft built in carbon composite with the focus on comfortable cruising combined with high performance and low weight and this new 40m follows those guidelines exactly.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.nautayachts.com/" target="_blank">Nauta Design</a> is responsible for overall exterior design, deck and interior design with the hull lines from the board of <a href="http://www.reichel-pugh.com/" target="_blank">Reichel Pugh Yacht Design</a>. She will have a full carbon sandwich construction and be equipped with a retractable propulsion system and lifting keel. Nigel Ingram from MCM will be the owner's representative on the project with the build start in September this year and delivery in summer 2016.<br />
<br />
She will have a plumb bow and a wide stern combined with a flush deck to fulfil the owner's wishes as a passionate regatta sailor. Her internal layout will include an owner forward suite, a saloon, galley and an additional five cabins, two for guests and three for crew.<br />
<br />This year Baltic Yachts is delivering two new builds, a 108ft and 116ft, along with the launch of Nariida, the 105ft Wally that was in for a refit this past winter. In production Baltic Yachts have a 115ft and a 175ft project alongside this new 130ft and the Lifecycle Service department projects. It all sounds like busy times ahead for the Finnish yard.Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-575892201620507237.post-56752896736368612652014-08-16T18:37:00.001+01:002014-08-16T18:37:18.769+01:00Lurssen's Ester III on Sea Trials<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<i>Ester III</i> also known as <i>"Project Green"</i> has successfully finished her sea trials in the Baltic Sea under perfect weather conditions. Her final delivery is planned for the autumn of this year.<br />
<br />
Espen Oeino gave Ester III a very noticable and masculine appearance, under clear directions from the owner. Her white and grey paint job and her vertical bow along with her angled lines give her that strong character. She has a length of 66m (216ft), a beam of 11.90m (39ft) and can accommodate all of the owner's requirements including a large pool on the main deck and a helicopter pad on the sun deck. <br />
<br />
Her interior, which is still being installed, is designed by Reymond Langton. <span lang="EN-GB" style="font-size: 12.0pt; font-weight: normal; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;"></span>

Last week, August 3rd to August 7th the futuristic 41m (134ft) megayacht <i>"Ocean Sapphire"</i> was the home for some very expensive and famous Andy Warhol pieces of art, as she hosted an art exhibition. She was moored at the <a href="http://www.fortevillageresort.com/" target="_blank">Forte Village Resort</a> in Sardinia for an exclusive top client charter, introducing top art collectors to the superyacht lifestyle.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.floatinglife.com/" target="_blank">Floating Life Charter & Brokerage</a> collaborated with Forte Village and Art Events Mazzoleni to host a selection of the 160 pieces of art which included 20 original Andy Warhol pieces, on board Ocean Sapphire. One of the pieces can be see in the below image.<br />

For some guests the charter began with a cruise on board Ocean Sapphire from Cagliari to Forte Village. From August 4th to August 6th a tender was available for a maximum number of 16 clients each evening. Once aboard the Ocean Sapphire, the guests were able to tour the yacht and admire the art on display. <br />
<br />
The event ended August 7th when the works of art were brought ashore and the Ocean Sapphire departed for a new destination in the Mediterranean.<br />

<a href="http://www.lurssen.com/" target="_blank">Lurssen</a> announced last week the successful launching and unveiling of the beautiful project <i>"Quantum Blue"</i> on 25th July 2014 after she had been rolled out the day before. She measures 104m (336ft) and her delivery is planned for the end of this year. <br />
<br />
Tim Heywood has given Quantum Blue elegant and graceful exterior lines and has ensured that despite her massive volume she maintains her graceful looks. He confirms: <i>"Quantum Blue has emerged from the Lurssen shipyard and will take her place, confidently, amongst the most beautiful yachts afloat. My gratitude to the owners for allowing Tim Heywood Designs to help create this wonderful floating work of art, which we are extremely proud of. Once again, I have had the great pleasure of working with the Lurssen team to create a truly wonderful yacht with many new and unique features. I am so pleased with the elegant proportions, the demanding details achieved by the yard and the superb finish to her hull and superstructure." </i><br />
<br />
Her interior design was created at the Alberto Pinto Design office and can be expected to be spectacular.

<a href="http://www.heesenyachts.nl/" target="_blank">Heesen Yachts</a> in Holland announced earlier this week that the 47m (154ft) displacement, YN 16947 Project <i>Hé</i>, was sold on June 13 2014. Mark Cavendish, Sales and Marketing Director at Heesen Yachts comments:<i> "This is the fourth contract we have signed in the first six months of 2014. We are delighted to see that the market is finally picking up!"</i> This is a great order book for the yard in the first six months of the year. <br />
<br />
She has a well engineered round bilge hull with a bulbous bow. She will be powered by two MTU 8V 4000 M63 that will ensure smooth and safe cruising in all sea conditions and a range of 4,000nm at 12kts, while zero speed stabilizers will guarantee maximum comfort at anchor. <br />
<br />
Her sophisticated interior is designed by London based and multi award winning studio <a href="http://www.bannenbergandrowell.com/" target="_blank">Bannenberg & Rowell Design</a> who are on their fifth successful collaboration with this Dutch megayacht builder. The fleet includes the 37m <i>Aurelia</i>, 47m <i>Elandess (now Raasta)</i>, <i>Lady Petra</i> and <i>My Secret</i>, and the recently launched 65m <i>Galactica Star</i>. <br />

Guru designer in Bannenberg & Rowell Design Dieter Rams’ motto to omit everything superfluous so that the essential is shown to the best possible advantage guided Bannenberg & Rowell in their approach to the interior design of Project Hé. The project name "Hé" in Chinese means <i>"the simplest form of peace and harmony"</i> and Bannenberg & Rowell chose it to unify in one ideogram the essence of their design theme: simplicity as the ultimate form of sophistication. <br />
<br />
Twelve guests will enjoy a relaxing atmosphere on board where light colors are combined with natural and discreet contrast finishes. She will be delivered to her owners in February 2015.<br />

<br />
Lurssen has announced the successful launching and unveiling of the beautiful 95m (312ft) project Global, which will soon be named <i>"Kismet"</i>. She is built for a repeat and very experienced client, who up graded from his former 68m (223ft) Lurssen megayacht which was sold and just left the Lurssen yard a few weeks previous after undertaking a refit. <br />
<br />
At the launch ceremony the owner praised the excellent cooperation with the owner's team consisting of his captain Kyle Fultz and his loyal crew, the design teams of Espen Oeino and Reymond Langton Design and Moran Yacht & Sip, who supervised the project as well as the Lurssen project team who played an important role in bringing this project to fruition. <br />
<br />
Robert Moran of Moran Yacht & Ships said: <i>"Kismet represents the best of the best in the construction of top quality yachts. Built by one of the best shipyards in the world, Lurssen Yachts in Germany, the owner of this superb yacht had massive input and visited the shipyard constantly during her construction. His input and knowledge pushed all involved in this project to raise their standards to a level never seen before in the yachting industry. We at Moran Yacht and Ship are proud to have been involved in the construction of such a great project."</i><br />
<br />
Lurssen confirms: <i>"We are happy that we have met the high-end expectations from the owner in terms of product quality and being able to stay within budget and on time. We are looking forward for Kismet to be delivered as scheduled and finding her place amongst her peers as being a remarkable statement in large yacht construction, based on an excellent design and excellent engineering skills." </i><br />

<br />
Espen Oeino has given Kismet very harmonious lines: <i>"The external living spaces are numerous and generous and have been laid out for both charter and private use in mind. The external deck facilities include an open fire place, external lounging and eating areas on three different decks including one with a fully equipped BBQ, an oval shaped swimming pool with integrated Jacuzzi on the sun deck and a very private observation deck overlooking it all. The master stateroom also has its own private external deck fully equipped with Jacuzzi and TV." </i><br />
<br />
Interior designer Pascal Reymond explains what enhances Kismet's luxurious style: <i>"The interior spaces distributions of Kismet are very original with some very dramatic features and fabulous perspectives with large voids between decks, perfect for large dining parties and also suitable for smaller private and more intimate uses thanks to sliding doors and panels which can separate elegantly each area. Kismet has everything any owner would inspire for. Elegant, spacious and well equipped spa with a plunge pool, every guest suites and owners area have their own identity and superb handmade textile and artwork, exotic woods and marble. Looking closely at the joinery detail of Kismet, she is very intricate with very interesting organic shapes and textures, still keeping an elegant and coherent design as a whole." </i><br />
<br />
Kismet will be an exciting addition to the global charter fleet and is available through Moran Yacht & Ship to selective clients at a weekly rate of €1.2 million. With her experienced crew she will without doubt provide the ultimate experience to remember. She will be cruising her first season in the Caribbean.<br />

<br />
On June 28th <a href="http://www.isayachts.com/" target="_blank">ISA Yachts</a> launched their newest megayacht, a 54m (179ft) called <i>"Forever One"</i>. She is a fully custom megayacht with a full displacement hull.<br />
<br />
She has a reverse bow and vibrant red and white paintwork that will definitely turn heads wherever she goes. Her reverse bow was designed by <a href="http://www.horaciobozzo.com/" target="_blank">Horacio Bozzo Design</a> with her interior design conducted by Alessandro Massari of Studio Massari. ISA Yachts worked in cooperation with the naval architect, the sales broker Fernando Nicholson, the captain/owner's representative Colin Skinner and the interior designer to build a megayacht full of distinctive features which make it stand out in a crowd.<br />
<br />Her layout is quite unconventional and ISA had the challenge to fit several features that make her unique. The owner's deck features a private balcony only accessible from their stateroom and a large aft deck terrace. Foldable bulwarks on the main deck grant a spectacular view to the exterior. She has an amazing glass elevator that connects all decks, from the lower deck to the flybridge. She has a spectacular dining/relaxing salon located forward on the main deck where the owner's stateroom is usually located. Her main garage is located forward on main deck and will carry a 9m tender and a 5.5m crew tender.<br /><br />
She is powered by two Caterpillars 3512C engines that will propel her to a speed of 16.5kts with a trans pacific range. Her exterior color scheme combines of a snow white colour on hull and superstructure with red elements to add that final bling!<br />
<br />
Her name <i>"Forever One"</i> as explained by the owner is dedicated to his wife: <i>"she is the one, forever"</i>. She will undergo the final commissioning phase in the next coming weeks.Unknownnoreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-575892201620507237.post-637829810315068232014-07-05T11:14:00.000+01:002014-07-05T11:14:00.736+01:00M/Y Global (ex Kismet) Completes Refit<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<a href="http://www.lurssen.com/" target="_blank">Lurssen</a> has completed the refit of <i>M/Y. Global</i>, formerly known as <i>Kismet</i>. She left the shipyard at the end of June and is now cruising in the Mediterranean with her new owners for the summer season. <br />
<br />
The hull has been given a beautiful new lease of life with a stunning light grey colour that Tim Morley describes as <i>"a great credit to Lurssen’s refit team and the contractors who undertook the work"</i>. Her helicopter deck that incorporates lighting and hinged railings has been enhanced and is now significantly larger and safer for regular helicopter operations. <br />
<br />
Espen Oeino was commissioned to draw the new hull lines, maintaining the DNA of the original design, and the owner is delighted with the result. Minor changes have also been made in the interior, in accordance with the new owner's taste and specifications. Kismet was originally delivered in 2007 and measures in at a length of 68m (223ft). <br />
<br />
Morley Yachts is the owner's representative and Hill Robinson supervised the refit. She has already been spotted when she left the shipyard as well as a few days later when she arrived in Gibraltar, seen in the picture below.<br />

<br />
The <a href="http://www.perininavi.it/" target="_blank">Perini Navi Group</a> have launched <i>"Perseus3"</i> the second superyacht in their new generation 60m (197ft) series, at their Viareggio shipyard. This series has sleek innovative hull lines and on board technology.<br />
<br />
Perseus3 is designed by Perini Navi naval architects in collaboration with legendary New Zealander Ron Holland. She has a Perini Navi sail control system and a lifting keel whose draft varies from 4.30m to 12.30m. Her 75m (246ft) mast and 23m boom are in carbon fibre as well as her standing rigging. She is also the first Perini Navi superyacht to have a carbon fibre bowsprit. The bowsprit was a request of the owner's that will allow for fast sail changes and a larger sail plan. The impressive sail set includes: 2 Gennakers, 1 Code 0, 1 Reacher, 1 Blade, 1 Spinnaker Stay Sail, 1 working Jib and an imposing Main Sail for a combined area of 10.000 sqm.<br />
<br />
She has an innovative deck layout with six winches for fast tacking and easy handling of halyards and lines. The jib is manoeuvred using the newest generation of captive winches with a pulling load of 35t and a speed of 110m per minute. She also has two rudders for top performance and agile manoeuvring. It looks like she is set up for some serious racing on the superyacht circuit. <br />
<br />
Her hull and superstructure are built in aluminium were constructed at the Perini Navi Yildiz shipyard in Turkey and give her less than 500 GT and a displacement of 570 tons. Her interiors were designed in house by Perini architects and can accommodate twelve guests in five cabins, one of which has sliding beds. The owner's suite is full beam and can be divided by a removable wall. Some of her other features include two 6.20m carbon fibre custom tenders, two opening beach platforms and an infinity pool on the fore deck. <br />
<br />
The third superyacht in this series is scheduled to be delivered in 2015.Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-575892201620507237.post-42914896727911106992014-06-27T18:50:00.002+01:002014-06-27T18:50:55.378+01:00Heesen Yachts Sell - 45m Project Necto<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<a href="http://www.heesenyachts.nl/" target="_blank">Heesen Yachts</a> have announced that their first 45m (148ft) fly bridge megayacht YN 17145 <i>"Project Necto"</i> has been sold to a yacht connoisseur with a true passion for speed and power.<br />
<br />
She is a powerful sportster and the largest built by a Northern European shipyard to date. She will be capable of an impressive 30kts thanks to her well engineered all aluminium semi-displacement hull and twin MTU 16V 4000 M73L engines. Speed and power combined with the interior luxury and comfort are the characteristics of this semi-displacement megayacht that will have a range of 2.750nm at 12kts.<br />
<br />
Frank Laupman of Omega Architects has created her exterior lines. He has introduced a piece of innovation excellence by introducing the <i>"knuckle"</i>, a design element that interrupts the line of the raked bow and gives her a much sharper and narrower bow that adds an aggressive look.<br />
<br />

<br />
Her interior is by Italian designer Cristiano Gatto who is currently working on his third project with the Dutch shipyard. The owners chose a contemporary yet cosy design for the interior of their 45m sportster. Ten guests will be accommodated in five cabins, with the full beam master suite located on the main deck and the four guest cabins two twins and two doubles on the lower deck.<br />
<br />
The owners dedicated special attention to the outdoor areas of their new megayacht, that includes an extremely spacious sundeck. The 84 sqm sundeck is completely free from fixed furniture to give the space for guests to carry out their morning exercise. It is an unusual and particularly remarkable design feature on a megayacht of this size.<br />

<a href="http://www.burgessyachts.com/" target="_blank">Burgess Yachts</a> are having an excellent week as they had four megayacht sales in the last week and have just announced that they have also just sold a 74m (243ft) new build project at the CRN Ancona Shipyard in Italy. <br />
<br />
Burgess Technical Services (BTS) are going to be used by the owner of this new 74m CRN new build to manage the project through to her completion in 2016. She will have a long range cruising capability, with a gross tonnage of well over 1500 GRT. Andrew Winch Designs has been appointed to design the interior with exterior design by Studio Zuccon who is well known for many of the CRN exterior designs. <br />
<br />
Her interesting features include a panoramic owner's saloon with full length picture windows, a large open plan sundeck with jacuzzi and a sizeable beach club.<br />
<br />
This is the first collaboration between Andrew Winch Designs and CRN Ancona - and everyone is keen to <i>"raise the bar"</i> according to Burgess.Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-575892201620507237.post-65329945056385923132014-06-22T20:27:00.000+01:002014-06-22T20:27:13.873+01:00CDM Launch Pocket Explorer "YOLO"<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

In Ancona on June 19th, last Saturday the Italian shipyard <a href="http://www.cantieredellemarche.it/" target="_blank">Cantiere delle Marche</a> launched <i>"YOLO"</i>, a new 26m (86ft) pocket explorer in alluminium built by Cantiere delle Marche and designed by Mario Pedol and Massimo Gino of Nauta Design. <br />
<br />
She is the first megayacht in the new CdM Nauta Air line. These explorer yachts offer the perfect blend of modern style and the same sturdy as Cantiere delle Marche’s Darwin Class Explorer yachts, that have already taken the pocket explorer market by storm. <br />
<br />
Vasco Buonpensiere, Director of Sales and Marketing and partner at CdM, had these words at the launching: <i>"Thanks to the new Nauta Air 86 project, Cantiere delle Marche has yet again shown that we are a shipyard that pays close attention to the market and knows how to anticipate its needs. We noticed that a large group of owners was looking for motor yachts that are different from the typical white-hulled planing boat with a flying bridge. They wanted an energy efficient boat that has larger interior volumes, something fully customizable and with sturdy metal construction. This without having to go for a large, three-bridge displacement yacht that can be heavy in more ways than one. Cantiere delle Marche decided to create the Nauta Air 86 line to meet their needs. This line has the essential superyacht characteristics of ample, fully customizable spaces united with energy efficient autonomy and freedom of use with limited crew. The CdM Nauta Air line is designed to meet the needs of experienced yachtsmen who want the security and comfort of a large metal-hulled displacement yacht without losing the flexibility and the ease of use of a planing yacht. The project has been an immediate success. Several yachts have been sold even before the launch of the first yacht in the series and I want to thank Nauta Design for their perfect interpretation of our brief. Their designs for the Air line fully meet our goal for yachts with strong, direct character combined with simple and elegant lines". </i><br />
<br />
Her interior and exterior spaces are kept in direct visual contact thanks to use of transparent glass in both windows and doors. The galley on the main deck has been designed to be accessible both from indoors and out and the central main salon is divided into conversation, relaxation and dining areas. <br />
<br />
Her owner was able to define, together with the shipyard and the designers, the interior layout. The 60 sqm panoramic fly bridge, with a sun area and spacious al fresco lounge, was specifically designed for easy outdoor living. A dedicated stairway leads from the main deck to the owner's suite for total privacy and a separate entrance leads to the lower deck and guest cabins. <br />
<br />
Architect. Mario Pedol commented, <i>"We feel that the unique aspect of life aboard a yacht lies in the opportunity it gives you to immerge yourself totally in the natural environment around you. When we sat down to design the CdM Nauta Air we always kept one priority in mind: that of bringing the outside world in. To do this we used wide areas of glass and created architectural spaces where the indoors could communicate in harmony with the outdoors. By thinking of the yacht as one continuous space we created a new concept of on board living, especially on the main and upper decks. CdM Nauta Air yachts are motor yachts that stand out thanks to their autonomy, their on board safety and their ample living spaces. All this while retaining a solid, robust, seaworthy core that inspires confidence"</i>.<br />

<a href="http://www.heesenyachts.nl/" target="_blank">Heesen Yachts</a> announced last week that YN 16847, <i>"Project Margarita"</i> was sold on May 19, 2014 to an yachting enthusiast who is looking forward to cruising with his family in great comfort and style. Project Margarita is the first of the newly styled megayachts in the award winning 47m (154ft) class, a new breed of Heesen megayacht. <br />
<br />
Her interior consists of silk, wool and linen fabrics that complement the rich textures featured in the main saloon, other elements include the walnut floor, oak walls and gloss lacquered ceiling. Large windows stretch across the entire length of the saloon in the sky lounge creating a light and airy place for guests to relax. The saloon also includes a bar and home cinema system. <br />
<br />
The owner's master suite includes an en-suite bathroom with a central bathtub and a pale travertine marble floor, a large private study and walk-in wardrobe. The guests will be accommodated on the lower deck in two double and two twin suites, all of which have en-suite bathrooms that have interesting marble walls and limestone floors.<br />
<br />
Her impressive 180 sqm exterior deck spaces offers her 12 guests a variety of options to enjoy - an 85sqm of a sundeck, al fresco dining in four different areas, lounging around the Jacuzzi, and sunbathing on the large sun pads in front of the bridge in peace and quiet.<br />
<br />
She will be delivered to her owners later this month on June 30 2014 after intensive sea trials in the North Sea for summer cruising in the Mediterranean and will be available for inspection at the Monaco Yacht Show next September, so look out for her if your there!Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-575892201620507237.post-11567612553629243402014-06-16T19:49:00.001+01:002014-06-16T19:49:19.350+01:00ISA Launch 43m Silver Wind<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

On the 12th of June <a href="http://www.isayachts.com/" target="_blank">ISA Yachts</a> launched and christened their newest megayacht the 43m (141ft) <i>"Silver Wind"</i>. She looks like something straight off the set of a James Bond movie with her sharp angled sliver hull. </div>
<br />
Her sharp and bold exterior design is the work of Andrea Vallicelli who gave her that striking look. She has 5 cabins that can accommodate 10 guests, who can enjoy relaxing moments at anchor on the yacht while making use of her extensive outdoor spaces. Other features include huge sundeck and a cosy beach area with a large swimming platform.<br />
<br />
She has quite a unique hybrid propulsion system developed by Siemens and ISA Yachts, she can both run at the maximum speed of 32kts and a cruising speed of 26kts with a "traditional" propulsion system consisting of two marine diesel engines driving two Rolls-Royce Kamewa waterjets through reduction gear boxes, and navigate at low speed of 8kts. With two main engines off, the two waterjets are powered by the two electric motors connected to the gearbox. The two diesel generators also supply power to the electric users. At electric mode, the total fuel consumption is 90 l/h for a range of 2,600nm, very important for moving her without guests onboard, as consumption goes from 55 l/nm at max yacht speed to 11 l/nm with electric mode on, a great piece of engineering design.<br />
<br />
She is scheduled for delivery in July. <br />

After delivering three <a href="http://www.codecasayachts.com/" target="_blank">Codecasa</a> 65's between 2008 - 2010, Codecasa have just reveled that they will be starting their 4th 65 project.<br />
<br />
<i>"The new Codecasa 65 is a sober and elegant Yacht that soon conveys a feeling of solidity without appearing too rigorous. Its intentionally 'masculine' profile, balanced between classic and trendy lines, captivates thanks to a natural and thoughtful synthesis of the Codecasa nautical tradition with the classic lines evolution, achieving the new classic style by subtraction"</i> explained Domenico Gozzani, Codecasa Shipyards Exterior Stylist.<br />

She will have large interior volumes and extremely clean exterior lines which are seen throughout her four decks. The lower deck is made up of four guest cabins, with the main deck entirely devoted to the relaxation of guests and owners thanks to the huge saloon and the adjacent dining room. The upper deck is exclusively dedicated to the owner, which includes a second saloon and a large owner's suite with a VIP cabin and a direct access to a very private external living area forward.<br />

More news to follow as the project gets underway at the yard.

The new <a href="http://www.moonen.com/" target="_blank">Moonen</a> Caribbean series was introduced last month, May 2014 and it offers six different designs ranging from 26m (85ft) to 38m (125ft). They are all named after islands in the Caribbean, showing it could be a place where they could be spending quite a bit of their time when orders come and launching starts.<br />
<br />
<i>Martinique</i>, the new project that's just been sold in the Caribbean series could be headed to the warm tropical waters when she is launched in 2016, with her construction is due to start shortly at the Moonen shipyard. She measures 36m (120ft) and is an innovation for the yachting industry as she will have a hull built of high tensile steel. Combined with Moonen's <i>"enhanced length principle"</i> (ELP) hull design, this will allow for an impressive turn of speed, low fuel consumption and high comfort levels for her owner.<br />
<br />
The advantage of using high tensile steel is that the construction can be made significantly lighter than normal steel with the same strength, resulting in a lighter boat that retains the benefits of steel. This lighter construction allows for a higher speed than one would expect from a full displacement yacht of this size.<br />
<br />
Her modern exterior design has sharp lines, vertical windows and a noticeable knuckle in the bow giving her a bold yet sleek appearance. The master suite is on the main deck and has amazing panoramic views out over the ocean. Other features will include a spacious country kitchen styled galley, a large saloon and outside space on the wheelhouse deck, a large swimming platform and an engine room designed for easy maintenance.<br />
<br />
Below are the other megayachts in the Caribbean series<br />

On the 27th of May 2014 <a href="http://www.lurssen.com/" target="_blank">Lurssen</a> launched the striking 66m (216ft) megayacht <i>"Project Green"</i> possibly due to be christened <i>"Ester III"</i> but this has not been confirmed by the yard. She will now enter the final phase of her construction and her delivery to her new owner is scheduled for later this.<br />
<br />
Under clear directions from the owner, Espen Oeino has given her very strong exterior lines with a noticeable overhang at the bridge where a two tone paint scheme has been used. Her interior, which is being installed right now, is designed by Reymond Langton.<br />
<br />
Due to the owners wishes no more information is available at this time but when we find out it will be right here on Megayacht Global.

<br />
Earlier this month <a href="http://www.vicemyacht.com/" target="_blank">Vicem Yachts</a> in Turkey announced the sale and delivery of the new Vicem 97 Cruiser (30m) to its new US owner. She arrived in Florida at the end of March 2014 after her sale the month previous. <br />
<br />
The Vicem 97 Cruiser is a megayacht that's entirely hand crafted using modern systems and a composite finish. She has now become the flagship of the Vicem Vintage Line along with the Vicem 107 Cruiser, that was delivered in the 2013. Her interiors are designed to ensure that the on board living for the owner and guests is luxurious and comfortable even during long crusies. <br />
<br />
She has beautiful classic lines that would be right at home on a quiet dock in Florida or a secluded bay in the Bahamas. Her design was inspired by the grand tradition of Gold Coast pleasure yachts, and based on the elegant style and design of Vicem's other range, the classic 52-77ft range. <br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
Some of her main features include:<br />
<ul>
<li>Flybridge: fully equipped helm station with two double helm seats, hydraulic dining table for 15, large grill, wet bar, sun deck and Jacuzzi </li>
<li>Aft cockpit and foredeck: large dining area with circular staircase leading up to the flybridge; day head; sunbathing and built-in seating; wide, covered side decks </li>
<li>Main deck: oversized salon with built in seating, wet bar, full-length galley, elevated dining room (seating for 8), and wheelhouse </li>
<li>Master stateroom: full beam stateroom with private stairway, dressing table, built in couch, his/hers bathrooms with Jacuzzi tub </li>
<li>Guest accommodations: two VIP cabins with king beds, one twin guest cabin, All en-suite bathrooms in all staterooms featuring granite counter tops </li>
<li>Crew quarters: located aft lower deck have a separate entrance for increased privacy, four bunk beds, galley, dining area and private head</li>
</ul>
She will have a maximum speed of 18kts and a range of 2,000nm at 10kts. Her owner will certainly enjoy her cruising around the Florida keys.<br />
