It is sometimes said that everything has a rhythm, and so it seemed at the end of May, just as the Mediterranean yachting season unofficially kicked off with the Cannes film festival and the Monaco Grand Prix, one of Van der Valk’s latest custom yachts hull number WV0146 was successfully launched in the Netherlands as she entered her final stages of construction before delivery. Built as Project Samba, the 35-metre all-aluminium tri-deck superyacht features exterior and interior design by Guido de Groot, with naval architecture by Diana. Titled m/y Lalabe, this fully custom Van der Valk shares hull design and naval architecture with three other Van der Valk's, a platform which debuted with the pluri-prized hull number WV127 titled as m/y Lady Lene. The similarities between the four custom triple deck super yachts stops there; even though three of the four are designed by Guido de Groot for the exterior. This WV0146 is also the largest of the quadrumvirate, being also a meter longer to its three other sisters.
