New Model: ISA Yachts Gran Turismo 67m

ISA Yachts a brand of Palumbo Superyachts, announces the delivery of the ISA Gran Turismo 67m titled Sea Raider X.  With an overall length of 67 metres, the first Gran Turismo 67m is the largest ISA Yachts build to date, overcoming the Gran Turismo 66m which arrived in 2014 by sixty centimetres. Designed by Vallicelli for exterior and Enrico Gobbi for the interior the first Gran Turimso 67m is arranged across four decks plus a bilge deck. Her black-painted steel hull and silver aluminium superstructure create an elegant and highly distinctive silhouette, perfectly expressing the sporty character that defines the Gran Turismo line. The project represents the evolution of ISA Yachts’ iconic Gran Turismo models which achieves a perfect balance between sportiness, elegance and technological innovation which today offers six models from 33 to eight meters and to date has been delivered in three hulls; 66m which debuted the line in 2014, 45m arrived in 2022, and this 67m. The yacht’s design is distinguished by the striking morphological and chromatic contrast between the flowing, organic lines of the decks and the bold diamond-shaped geometry of the transom and sun deck superstructure. The side profile of the superstructure is built around a distinctive “frame” element that connects the wheelhouse roof to the aft bulwark of the main deck, creating a dynamic overall appearance while recalling the signature styling cues of the Gran Turismo family line. The first Gran Turismo 67m accommodates up to fourteen guests across seven cabins, including a full-beam owner’s suite located forward on the main deck. Crew accommodation comprises thirteen crew members plus the Captain, distributed across eight cabins. The Gran Turismo 67m most significant innovations are concentrated on the main deck, where the entire aft area has been completely reimagined. A spacious lounge develops around the spectacular panoramic swimming pool and, thanks to two fold-down side terraces, offers an exceptionally generous living area. From here, integrated staircases provide direct access to the aft platform and the beach club. he primary tender is housed aft on the lower deck and launched through a side-opening hatch. The garage connects directly to the beach club, which features a hammam, bar and gym area. Once the tender has been launched, the entire covered aft section transforms into a full-beam entertainment area, effectively doubling the size of the beach club. The Gran Turismo 67m is powered by twin MTU 3046hp for speeds up to eight knots, a cruise of sixteen, and a twelve knots long range which will give an autonomy up 5500 nautical miles.

Project: BlueGame BG64

Bluegame presents the BG64 project, completing the brand's celebrated BG range by applying its defining architectural philosophy in the nineteen meter segment for the very first time. Combining the seamless indoor-outdoor living of the BG74 with the proven engineering platform of the BGX63, BG64 introduces the full Bluegame experience to a broader community of owners, fulfilling the brand's ambition to offer for a Bluegame for every Bluegamer. With three yachts already allocated ahead of its world premiere at the Cannes Yachting Festival, BG64 begins its journey with strong market confidence, marking an important new chapter for Bluegame. Since launching the BG74, Bluegame has redefined the relationship between life onboard and life on the water through an architectural approach unlike anything else in the market. Now with the BG64 it is realising that same experience within a more compact yacht. The result is a yacht that remains unmistakably Bluegame while opening the brand to a broader community of owners. The challenge behind the BG64 was never simply to create a smaller yacht. It was to preserve the qualities that define every Bluegame without compromise. From the seamless continuity between interior and exterior spaces to the versatility of the upper deck and the exceptional functionality of the stern, every design decision was driven by the desire to deliver the complete Bluegame experience within a new size category. Among the defining features of the BG64 is its exceptionally versatile stern. Integrating a lateral opening terrace, generous swim platform and port-side crane into a highly organised layout, it offers a level of functionality rarely found in a yacht of this size. Together with the uninterrupted connection between the cockpit and interior living spaces, it creates an environment where movement between yacht and sea feels entirely natural. The iconic Bluegame upper deck remains the social heart of the yacht. Naturally shaded and ventilated, it can also be fully enclosed to suit different climates and cruising conditions, providing owners with exceptional flexibility while preserving the distinctive character that has become synonymous with the BG range. The helm station can be separated from the guest areas, allowing independent owners and crew to enjoy clearly defined spaces on board. Forward, a generous bow lounge transforms effortlessly between sunbathing area, dining space and private retreat. Designed to maintain privacy even in a marina environment, it significantly extends the yacht's liveable outdoor space. The BG64 also retains two fully equipped stern islands, another hallmark of Bluegame design while the proven BGX63 hull delivers responsive handling, efficiency and seakeeping for which the brand is renowned. Interiors by Zuccon International Project complete the experience, blending refined craftsmanship with an architectural language that dissolves the traditional boundaries between inside and out.
