Drawing inspiration from the world of automobiles, Tecnoмar introduces a captivating addition to its EVO lineup. The EVO 130 Hard Top, a creation by Gian Marco Caмpanino from the Italian Sea Group, seamlessly melds the dynamic elegance and nimbleness of a sports car with the essence of a boat, resulting in a sleek, aerodynamic profile.

Within its confines, the interior graciously hosts up to 12 passengers across five double cabins and the opulent owner’s suite, complemented by accommodation for a dedicated crew of seven members.

The main deck boasts a sunlit salon, while a terrace and bar extension expand from the primary living space, further enhancing the connection to the open air. Aft, a beach club featuring a tender garage adds an inviting touch.

Powering this 130-foot sport yacht are twin 1,800-horsepower V-12 engines, propelling it to a peak velocity of 19 knots, with a comfortable cruising speed of 17 knots. For a luxurious exploration of the ocean, this vessel stands unrivaled.

See, the latest superyacht concept by Gill Schmid Design in collaboration with Lateral Naval Architects, is a remarkable vessel that is impossible to overlook. Measuring 213 feet in length, this hybrid yacht features a truly unique exterior characterized by large reflective glass planes.

The interior design of See deviates from the traditional formal saloon and dining room layout found in conventional superyachts. Instead, it embraces a more casual and open-plan design with convertible spaces, totaling 1,670 GT. The concept draws inspiration from Transformers, translating their adaptable nature into an architectural context.

The yacht accommodates six guest cottages, each located near a pool or jacuzzi, providing a luxurious and relaxing experience. The owner’s suite is situated on the upper deck and spans the entire 40-foot beam, offering a spacious and private retreat. Additionally, See has ample space to accommodate up to 17 crew members.

See is designed for entertaining, featuring an expansive kitchen, communal tables, and an adjacent lounge. It includes a sushi bar and an outdoor barbecue area that can double as a raw bar for aspiring chefs. Onboard, guests can enjoy the freshest produce as the yacht is equipped with hydroponic tanks for growing fruits and vegetables, a fermentation chamber, and even a mushroom laboratory.

The amenities onboard See rival those of a 5-star resort. The main terrace showcases a glass-bottom infinity pool, which serves as the centerpiece. Surrounded by sun loungers and a jacuzzi, it offers a picturesque and Instagram-worthy experience. Another section of the terrace features a shaded pool lounge and bar, perfect for enjoying happy hour. The foredeck saloon is noteworthy, featuring a retractable glass wall that can transform it from an open-air cinema to an oceanfront terrace. A leisure and wellness area with a sauna, steam room, fitness center, and another infinity pool adds to the luxurious experience. The yacht is also equipped with various toys and auxiliaries.

In terms of efficiency, See boasts a Lateral E-Hybrid propulsion system, enabling a maximum speed of 16 knots and a range of 3,750 nautical miles. It is equipped with batteries that can power the yacht for six to eight hours at anchor and three hours of serene sailing. This ensures a balance between performance and sustainability.

Italian shipyard Tankoa Yachts has recently announced the sale of a new 56-meter custom superyacht model known as the T560 Apache. Fraser played a key role in the sale, representing first-time yacht owners, a young American couple, who initiated discussions with the shipyard during the Fort Lauderdale Boat Show.

The T560 Apache is a smaller version of the 76-meter T760 Apache, which was designed by Alberto Mancini and initially unveiled at the Monaco Yacht Show in 2021.

For these first-time buyers, a 72-meter yacht felt like too ambitious of an entry into the yachting world. Consequently, the shipyard and design team faced the challenge of compacting the T760 Apache’s amenities and profile into a smaller vessel. Claudio Corvino, the sales and business development manager at Tankoa, explained.

“The tricky part was to maximize internal space with minimal compromises, to create a beach-style, home-away-from-home retreat with expansive external spaces and without the formality that is sometimes found on yachts of this size. The result is an incredible yacht with incredible spaces.”

The T560 Apache boasts four decks, not counting the observation deck beneath the mast, with a unique layout. All guest cabins are situated on the main deck, allowing room for a gym and spa area. This design also facilitates a spacious stepped aft deck, totaling 90 square meters thanks to fold-down bulwarks, with a saltwater pool as the centerpiece at the stern. Slanted, smoked glass sliding doors provide an additional space that serves as an open-air beach club.

Oceanco has unveiled updated details and visual representations of its innovative 90-meter hybrid superyacht concept called Kairos, a collaboration with renowned design firm Pininfarina.

This release coincides with the 2021 Monaco Yacht Show, building upon the concept’s introduction in March of the same year. The Dutch shipyard presents the experience aboard the 90-meter vessel as boundless, crafting an exterior that creates a serene oasis, inviting relaxation and personalized leisure.

Described as a “floating, living island,” Kairos boasts a symmetrical profile without a discernible forward direction. This design approach eliminates the conventional urgency associated with reaching destinations, facilitating a lifestyle that fully embraces the present moment.

A remarkable feature is the expansive three-level “theatrical piazza” that defies traditional yacht design norms. All guest and owner accommodations are situated on the lower deck, fostering a heightened sense of spaciousness and fluidity throughout the primary guest areas on the main level.

Oceanco has revealed further insights into the E-Hybrid propulsion system, which leverages batteries as the primary energy source. Diesel generators come into play for battery recharging and high-speed travel. This configuration results in a noiseless, minimally vibrating, and emission-free operation, contributing to a greener yachting experience.

Kairos, a creation by Lateral Naval Architects, aligns with Oceanco’s NXT sustainability initiative, exemplifying a fusion of technical design and engineering prowess.

Marcel Onkenhout, CEO of Oceanco, expressed, “Kairos embodies a remarkable vision brought to life through the collaboration of three visionary partners: Pininfarina, Lateral, and Oceanco. When owners encounter the Oceanco NXT endorsement in a yacht’s design, they can anticipate an elevated onboard lifestyle that resonates with novel perspectives on sustainability and living.”

Who says a port must be located on land? Certainly not Lazzarini. This is due to the fact that the design studio’s most recent innovative concept is a superyacht that functions as a dockyard for small tenders serving the high seas.

The futuristic Saturnia is 328 feet long and has a geometric silhouette with pointed, angular lines. The ship will be made exclusively of dry carbon fiber, which, according to Lazzarini, will make it approximately 50 percent lighter than ships of comparable size.

Of course, the private port located midship is the crowning achievement. This one-of-a-kind sheltered area is accessible through two large apertures on each side that automatically raise when needed. Similar to a standard wharf, it can facilitate the entry and exit of mariners while also accommodating vessels with a draft of up to 5 feet. Consider it the entrance to your very own floating hotel.

The interior comprises five floors plus an antenna/radar area on the roof. It is characterized by high ceilings and enormous windows that maximize the view of the ocean. It can accommodate between 10 and 20 guest suites and dormitories for 20 crew members, with a layout that can be tailored to each owner’s preferences.

As you might anticipate, Saturnia comes with a plethora of luxury amenities, such as multiple pools and alfresco dining areas, a launchpad for eVTOLs (it is 2021, after all), and a stunning glass-bottom lounge with breathtaking views of the world beneath the waves.

Regarding Saturnia’s propulsion, Lazzarini envisions hybrid propulsion. Dual diesel engines and a central electronic water jet system would provide the vessel with a maximum speed of 30 knots and less pollution.

Believe it or not, this is a relatively subdued Lazzarini design. The innovative studio has previously designed megayachts in the form of sharks and swans, as well as a hyperyacht that resembles a projectile. Clearly, all of this design innovation comes at a cost. Saturnia is still prohibitively expensive. The superyacht, according to Lazzarini, can be commissioned for $300 million and will take approximately two and a half years to reach the seas. Best to begin saving immediately.

No, it’s not an animal, nor is it a jet—it’s the new 230-foot superyacht “Jet 2020” from Codecasa, featuring an aviation-inspired design. This innovative vessel marks a cross-pollination of design in the twenty-first century by merging elements of aircraft design with luxury yacht aesthetics.

Scheduled to begin construction later this year, the Jet 2020 will become the flagship of the Italian shipyard Codecasa. The visionary behind this initiative is Fulvio Codecasa, who has owned the Viareggio shipyard for the past four decades. The Codecasa family has a heritage in boat-building dating back to 1825.

While Codecasa is known for its custom yacht designs, the Jet 2020 stands out as a departure from their traditional vessels. By incorporating aircraft-inspired lines into the yacht’s hull, Codecasa aims to set a “unique example” that could potentially spark a trend.

The yacht features several aeronautical design elements, including a convex forward section and a cockpit-like steering station. The central part of the superstructure resembles an aircraft fuselage with a sundeck, while the rear portion rises to evoke the tail of an aircraft. Codecasa highlights the substantial internal volume achieved through this aviation-inspired design.

One of the yacht’s most elegant sections is the sea-level aft beach club, equipped with a lift and connected to a sky lounge. The main salon and dining room feature floor-to-ceiling windows, providing stunning panoramic views. A helipad on the roof allows owners to experience actual flight, and a double tender area that resembles a jet engine is situated along the vessel’s side for shore excursions.

The owner’s suite is located in the bow section of the main deck, while four guest cabins can be found on the lower deck. The sundeck is an expansive 66 feet by 33 feet and offers a covered gym, sunbathing areas, and a 20-foot recessed pool for outdoor relaxation.

While many technical specifications are yet to be disclosed, Codecasa mentions that the Jet 2020 will feature aviation-inspired tech elements, including radar antennas installed in a carbon-fiber superstructure designed in the style of the Boeing E-3 Sentry AWACS aircraft.

The Jet 2020 will be built to meet Lloyds and MCA specifications, enabling it to be registered under prestigious international certification flags.
