Unveiling the UP40 Explorer: Antonini Navi’s Ultimate Superyacht Concept for Unforgettable Adventures

June seems like a very distant memory, but I recall the unveiling of the Utility Platform 40 and the Italians at Antonini Navi celebrating their accomplishment. The UP40 Explorer superyacht concept is based on the same modular steel platform as the Utility Platform 40, but it appears even better.

The UP40 Explorer was designed in collaboration with renowned yacht designer Fulvio de Simoni, whose name should ring a bell if you’re a sailing and luxury yacht enthusiast.

According to Fulvio de Simoni, this initiative posed a significant challenge in light of the other available options and the fact that it had to share the UP40 platform.

The goal was to design a vessel that was comfortable, dependable, and safe, with a hint of a military feel, but which could be readily and extensively customized upon request for extended cruises and long-distance travel.

The newest yacht project from Antonini Navi displays aggressive lines, with a raised superstructure based on the shipyard’s offshore patrol vessel designs – similar to North Atlantic tugboats.

This magnificent vessel is slated to be available in two variants, Classic Explorer and Sports Explorer, and promises to meet all of your needs in addition to offering various sundeck arrangements.

The Classic Explorer’s 60-square-meter raised deck is intended to serve as a technical space for tenders, submersibles, and water sports. Its sundeck features a military-style pilothouse, while sunbeds and a sun pad are located in the rear section.

In contrast, the Sports Explorer version appears to be more influenced by military vessels. The 65-meter-long owner’s suite, however, begs to differ.

Antonini Navi collaborated with the Netherlands’ MARIN Maritime Research Institute to test this vessel in extreme conditions.

The UP40 Explorer, according to its designers, would have a range of over 6,000 miles at 11 knots and a maximum speed of approximately 15 knots. Would you like to circumnavigate the globe aboard this yacht?

Jay Z and Beyoncé Embark on an Oceanic Exploration with Their Own Self-Piloted Yacht

Recent reports indicate that Nigerian energy magnate Kola Aluko is the purported owner of the ultra-luxurious yacht Galactica Star, which was recently chartered by Jay Z and Beyoncé for a vacation.

The luxury yacht has a length of 65 meters, a price tag of £50 million (€65 million, $73 million), and the ability to reach speeds of up to 28 knots (32 mph) when conditions are favorable. Because of the innovative hull construction, the vessel is also incredibly fuel-efficient. In comparison to boats of a similar size, it requires up to thirty percent less power to maintain the same speed as it would otherwise.

With its full-beam master bedroom, upper-deck VIP cabin, and four other double cabins, the Galactica Star has the capacity to accommodate up to 12 people at a time. Beyond this, there is a “beach club” that features a helipad, a balcony that is 10 square meters in size, and a ton of space for entertaining visitors.

There have been rumors that the yacht may be chartered for $900,000 a week (or £580,000), however in reality, it is significantly more exclusive: To be allowed to stay on the yacht, you must also be acquainted with the owner.

Here’s what it looks like.

The Galactica Star, which debuted in 2014, was awarded a Neptune Trophy at an event dubbed “the Oscars of the super-yacht industry.”

Bannenberg and Rowell Design, one of the most prestigious names in yacht design, created the interior. The interior is designed to complement the sleek, metallic appearance of the hull.

The Galactica Star has a length of 213 feet (65 meters) and a width of 37 feet (11.3 meters).

The yacht is outfitted with everything you could possibly need at sea, catering particularly to warmer climates where guests can relax in the sun.

The Galactica Star can land and store a helicopter, making getting to and from the shore a breeze.

The Star can sleep 12 people but can accommodate many more across multiple levels with different seating areas. Guests can be attended to by trained personnel who also live onboard.

The Star can travel at up to 28 knots (32 mph) despite weighing around 560 tons (with a 50% load), making it one of the fastest boats in its class.

The top deck features a Jacuzzi, bar, large seating area, and viewing platform, as well as towels with Galactica Star embroidery.

While the Star is large, it is also attractively designed, with swooping curves engineered from an all-aluminum ƅоԀy.

Aside from guests, the boat can accommodate staff and has a dedicated kitchen for preparing food for those onboard.

The control room is cutting-edge, with large touch-screen displays that allow the yacht to travel over 4,500 nautical miles on a single tank of fuel.

Aside from the 106-square-meter sundeck with bar and Jacuzzi, the Star has a 64-square-meter “living deck” on the front (which also serves as a helipad) and an additional 80 square meters on the lower aft deck when the tenders are moved to the front garage.

The ship is beautifully lit at night and is an ideal location for hosting parties.

The contemporary and forward-thinking design incorporates a lot of glass, which helps to keep the space light and airy.

The Galactica Star costs about the same as a large mansion at £50 million (€65 million, $73 million).

Get a Glimpse of Nick Stark Design’s Mind-blowing 94m Superyacht Masterpiece, Project Crystal

Plans for a 94-meter superyacht idea called Project Crystal have been unveiled by Australian firm Nick Stark Design.

The superyacht’s “celebratory” aesthetic was inspired by the “striking crystalline lattice” that runs along its superstructure, hence the name.

He elaborated, saying, “The lines flow up and across, lifting our gaze and also guiding it to what is around us: the people, the community, and the environment.”

The boat has three pools: a private jacuzzi on the owner’s deck, a spa pool on the sundeck above with a transparent floor, and a pool in the aft deck party zone.

The inside of the owner’s deck feels even more spacious thanks to the sun deck spa’s transparent floor, as noted by Stark. “The atrium effect floods the lounge below with soothing and dynamic light,” the author writes.

Project Crystal will have a hybrid propulsion system, foredeck helipad, and 2500GT cabin, and was built with “swift global navigation” in mind.

“As with all our designs, the impact a vessel has on its context is crucial—environmental considerations extend from the controllable pitch propellers which maximize efficiency, through the hydrodynamic optimizations of the hull, hybrid power systems, and glazing arrangements that minimize solar gain,” Stark said.

Exclusive Peek Inside Kylie Jenner’s Birthday Bash Aboard the Luxurious Superyacht Tranquility

Kylie Jenner is presently celebrating her 22nd birthday aboard the Tranquilly, a 91.5-meter superyacht.

According to TMZ, the billionaire entrepreneur and founder of Kylie Cosmetics was sighted off the coast of Capri in Italy with her boyfriend Travis Scott, and mother Kris Jenner after chartering the Oceanco-built superyacht Tranquilly for her birthday party.

A week aboard Tranquilly costs over €1.1 million. Kylie Jenner is the youngest billionaire in the world, with an estimated net worth of approximately $1 billion.

Camper & Nicholsons manages Tranquilly for Charter and stated in a statement, “We value our clients’ privacy and want them to enjoy some tranquility while on board.”

Tranquilly, which was launched in the Netherlands in 2014, was the first superyacht constructed to the new PYC standard. She can therefore accommodate up to 26 passengers and 28 crew members. Her twin 4,828 horsepower MTU 20V4000 M73 diesel engines allow her to reach a maximum speed of 19.5 knots. When slowed to her cruising speed of 16 knots, Tranquilly has a range of 5,000 nautical miles.

The interior design by Winch Design is influenced by Asian culture and features materials such as wenge, gold foil, bamboo, and marble. She is commercially certified to accommodate up to 22 passengers, making her an attractive charter yacht.

Tranquilly has ten cabins, including a master suite with a private owner’s study and two VIP suites on the main deck, each with a private veranda. Another full-beam VIP stateroom with spectacular 180-degree views can be located on the bridge deck.

In addition, there is a beach club that functions as a gym, a helipad, and a 2,000-square-meter swimming pool. There is also a spa with a sauna, Hammam, experiential showers, and a plunge pool for post-party recuperation.

Tranquility’s nomination for Displacement Motor Yacht Above 75m at the 2015 World Superyacht Awards is not surprising.

This year, Burgess released new images of the superyacht where Kylie will celebrate her 22nd birthday this coming weekend.

Bird-Inspired Elegance: Behold the Futuristic 345-Foot Superyacht Concept With a Striking Avian Design

The design of superyachts draws inspiration from a variety of industries, such as the automotive industry for its large, curved glass windows and the luxury condominium market for its expansive, open-floor plans. J. David Weiss of Designova drew inspiration for his new 345-foot concept, Soar, from nature, the progenitor of creativity.

Weiss explains that the design, shape, and name of Soar were inspired by the graceful flight of large birds of prey as they “soar” through the air. The glossy black steel hull of the yacht, which was designed in collaboration with racing and sailing yacht experts, resembles the pointed structure of a bird’s cranium, while the yacht’s internal and external support system was inspired by their skeletons.

The concave forms of the upper freeboard, which extend at the top and provide unobstructed views of the sea when cruising and at anchor, bear more resemblance to nature. This allows for more space on the upper main decks while maintaining a 47-foot waterline beam width.

Weiss told Robb Report, “The avian world has pneumatic and intricate internal structures within their bones that make birds light and strong while providing space for extra oxygen as they fly.” It inspired me to create a support system between decks that allows for larger expanses of glass and uninterrupted views of the ship’s interior.

Unlike most yacht concepts, which are the product of a designer’s creative imagination, Soar is the result of a single owner’s desire for a moderately-sized vessel with speed and space.

“As my conversations with the owner progressed, we realized that by making the yacht longer, narrower, and with fewer decks, we could achieve his desired elements with even greater efficiency,” says Weiss.

The proprietor never built the concept, but Weiss continued to borrow from other industries throughout the design process. He sought advice from a Small Waterplane Area Twin Hull (SWATH) expert concerning the design of the dramatic reverse bow. Its shape resembles a bird’s mandible and is intended to increase speed, efficiency, and stability.

Soar is designed to be a rapid cruiser with hydrogen fuel-cell propulsion and an electric hybrid cruising system for low-speed navigation. It has an estimated maximum speed of 30 knots when powered by a large-scale GE marine turbine for “more exciting speeds.”

Weiss’s list of recommended tenders and diversions includes an electric Voltari performance runabout and four T3mp3st jet skis, both of which were designed by Weiss. In addition to the two existing helipads — one dedicated landing location on the flybridge aft and one touch-and-go circle on the foredeck — a small personal electric quadcopter may be housed in a custom hangar at the bow.

The interior design incorporates multiple configuration options developed with the preferences of future homeowners in mind. The twin pool configuration features a family-friendly pool deck at the stern and a private owner’s pool on the foredeck. The figure-eight-shaped pool of the proprietor features a counter-flow system.

Soar can be constructed with the helm located on the main deck, freeing up the forward flybridge area (typically where the captain’s bridge is located) to become a dedicated owner’s suite for those who desire the finest views on board.

The exterior’s curvaceous, flowing lines are mirrored in the open-plan interior, which features a central staircase that winds through the terraces and a collection of natural materials and fabrics. Featured prominently in the interior design are expansive living spaces centered on entertainment. These include carved-out open spaces amidships that provide sheltered alfresco “havens,” while also reducing the yacht’s gross tonnage.

Additionally, there are wide passageways between decks, vast gallery-like spaces for displaying modern art, and elevated platforms that were originally designed for displaying the owner’s collection of Formula 1 sculpture and artifacts.

One is left with the impression of a very long sport boat with a spacious, lively interior and a long beak at the bow, which makes this a singular bird of prey.

Dive Into the Ultimate Superyacht Experience with a Glass Owner’s Suite Opening Onto a Swimming Pool

ISA Yachts has decided to give its wildly popular Gran Turismo line a sporty facelift.

On Thursday, the Italian shipyard helmed by Palumbo Superyachts unveiled a 230-foot flagship with the sporty looks of your beloved grand tourer.

The Gran Turismo 70m is the first vehicle in the series to be designed by the renowned Italian designer Enrico Gobbi of Team for Design. The newcomer is distinguished by its elegant, sinuous lines and coupe-like profile. The steel-gray hull is fitted with windows that stretch from head to stern.

Onboard, the signature arches of ISA connect each deck. The living space combines a soothing color scheme of dove gray, taupe, and blue with contemporary designer furnishings. Teak and wenge wood are used on the floors and ceilings to create a cozy atmosphere, while marble and brass accents lend a touch of elegance.

There are five double accommodations on the main deck, including a VIP cabin with its own lounge. The owner’s residence, or “glasshouse” as ISA refers to it, features floor-to-ceiling windows that open and seamlessly connect you to the outdoors. The suite is located on the upper deck and features two restrooms, a vanity area, and two closets. The foredeck provides direct and private access to a swimming pool, lounge, and (optional) helipad.

A round dining room with opening windows and the exterior cockpit are located at the aft end of the upper deck. The next level up features a sky lounge and wheelhouse with panoramic vistas. The lower platforms are also quite impressive. The expansive beach club has a bar, a spa, a massive LED television, and foldable platforms for additional space. All of the outdoor furniture is contemporary, circular, and as comfortable as the front seat of your GT.

Exquisite Futuristic Design Unveiled for a Luxurious Middle East Yacht Club and Marina!

The renderings for an ambitious new project spanning three natural harbors along the northwestern coast of Saudi Arabia have been unveiled for the first time.

The project is on schedule to be completed in 2024, and it is anticipated to have a significant impact on yachting activity in the Middle East and Red Sea.

A 10-hectare basin can accommodate yachts up to 130 meters in length, and an 80-meter Quai d’honneur can hold events such as yacht shows, regattas, and other yachting events.

The full-service marina will provide a total of 120 berths and will feature a distinctive porte-cochere for discreet tender arrivals.

The yacht club portion of Triple Bay Club will span 7,900 square feet and four stories and will include a terrace restaurant, infinity pool platform, and rooftop cabana lounge. Its distinctive appearance was inspired by the natural erosion of stones, and the design was created by the international architecture firm HKS.

The project is already well advanced, with Amaala, a luxury real estate development company, in charge. The Red Sea Development Company manages Amaala, which is part of the Saudi Vision 2030 program.

“We anticipate that Amaala will become an international hub for luxury yachting, and as such, the yacht club required a world-class design, influenced by the surrounding natural elements and Arabic heritage, and underpinned by our commitment to sustainability,” said Amaala’s chief executive officer, John Pagano.

“Amaala presents a unique opportunity to shape a new tourist destination and a new yachting hub on the Red Sea. It is an honor to be involved in the design of this iconic yacht club, which will serve as the marina’s focal point and enhance the guest experience, according to Kevin Underwood, global director of hospitality at HKS.

To reduce its ecological footprint, the development is aiming for a minimum LEED Gold environmental sustainability rating.

Tetrahedron Super Yacht: Where Dreams Set Sail into Extraordinary Realms

You may be wondering what this is, correct? Is it an alien invasion, or have the Mayans awoken to construct yet another magnificent architectural marvel!? The Tetrahedron Super Yacht, an innovative pyramid-shaped superstructure that appears to be floating above the water, is depicted in the images presented here.

Jonathan Schwinge, a London-based architect, envisioned this yacht levitating above the ocean with his revolutionary design. A vertical strut attached to a submerged torpedo-shaped hull makes this feasible. Aside from being awe-inspiring and somewhat frightening, there is no doubt that this is still an opulent vessel.

The Tetrahedron Super Yacht will navigate rough seas with ease, sporting ample deck space on all three sides, sun decks with sunloungers or sofas, an outdoor dining area, an abundance of water toys, and retractable stairs leading directly into the water.

Tetrahedron, made of carbon fiber and duplex stainless steel, will accommodate six passengers and four crew members in a pyramid that is 70.8 feet long and has four faces and six leading edges. It will attain speeds of up to 38 knots (43.7 mph) above the water’s surface, with a takeoff speed of 15 knots (17.2 mph) and a range of 3,000 nautical miles.

This type of hull has been created before, but none can compare to this astounding innovation. Marcel Muller of INMAINCO Visionary Marine Management is the project manager, and EYELEVEL UK is responsible for these renderings. There is no indication of costs or when we’ll be able to see this beauty in real life. We are still uncertain about the mode of propulsion, however.

Earth 300: The Revolutionary Nuclear-Powered Superyacht on a Mission to Preserve Antarctica

The oceans are drowning, but the 300-meter-long, nuclear-powered megayacht “Earth 300” from Iddes Yachts could save them all.

Although “Earth 300” is longer than the Titanic, 150 feet wide at its widest point, and has a capacity for 160 scientists, 165 crew members, and 40 VIPs, its purpose is not to conquer our oceans but to save them. As you may have guessed from the term “scientists,” this yacht will serve as a floating base for the world’s leading climate scientists to investigate climate change and other earth-damaging events.

Utilizing robotics, AI, and quantum computation, the vessel is equipped with everything the world’s top scientists require for deep-sea exploration and climate change analysis. Such as that large circle on the deck? That is “science city,” a sphere that will function as the scientists’ home.

According to Iván Salas Jefferson, founder of Iddes Yachts, “We sought to create a design that would inspire… We want those who view the sphere to be inspired to protect Earth. When someone enters the sphere, which now houses the science city,’ and experiences the action of all the ongoing scientific work, we want them to be inspired to become a global solutions alchemist.”

As for amenities, “Earth 300” is equipped with an observation deck, a helipad, and underwater expedition vehicles for investigating the ocean’s deepest depths. Those previously mentioned VIPs will also be invited onboard to experience the ship for a fee of $3 million USD each.

The structure is powered by a zero-emissions energy source derived from an onboard molten salt reactor developed by Bill Gates’ TerraPower company to ensure it does not further damage the environment. Iddes Yachts anticipates the launch of “Earth 300” in 2025; until then, you can learn more about the yacht online.

White Motorcycle Concepts aims for its all-electric motorcycle to surpass 250 miles per hour in the future of transportation.
