Project: Princess 106 Odyssey

Princess Yachts, the UK’s largest luxury yacht manufacturer, has announced its return to the thirty meters plus superyacht segment with the announcement of the 106 Odyssey project at the 2025 Monaco Yacht Show.  A bit of Princess super yachting history, the Plymouth yacht builder entered 24 meters plus sizes in 2001 when it launched the 25M, this was followed by always expanding sizes and under one hundred foot for a decade, that is when Princess buys part of the Devonport Naval Base in 2011, and enters thirty meters plus sizes in that same year debuting the 32M.  The 32M is followed by the largest Princess to date, the 40M, and then by the smaller 35M and 30M.  In total 38 yachts were build in eight years over thirty meters with the most successful being the 30M sold in fifteen units, and the 35M the least as it was delivered in seven hulls.  The 106 Odyssey marks the return for Princess in the thirty meter plus segment after an absence since 2019, and is the first model in a forthcoming range of larger yachts with a more ship like exploring presence, unlike the previous M range which had sleek modern lines. The 106 Odyssey is a super yacht designed to deliver more volume to square meter for its size, and will offer numerous interior configurations, possible from an innovative layout, and a range of optional packages to ensure customer choice is both simplified and wide-ranging. Princess say the 106 Odyssey is engineered for distance and long range, although thus far with this first project announcement they have advised no distance capability details, but they are saying it will feature a hybrid fast displacement hull.  As layout goes the main deck features an expansive cockpit and transom with flexible furniture and drop-down balconies designed to adapt effortlessly to every occasion. The owner’s suite includes a private lounge or ante-room, a dressing area, and a spa-inspired en-suite bathroom, while the upper deck offers configurable layouts with bespoke furniture options, an optional spa bath, and floor-to-ceiling windows and skylights that create a bright, airy sanctuary. The lower deck is to feature a full-beam VIP stateroom that can be transformed into two en suite double cabins, providing up to four elegant guest cabins in total. Crew quarters are located forward and include three cabins for five crew members, including a private Captain’s cabin and a welcoming crew mess.

New Model: Lancia Aprea 42

Lancia Aprea follows its first 52 model act with the smaller 42 which debuted at the 2025 Cannes boat show.  Again a design of Brunello Acampora, the smaller 42 follows the theme of the bigger sister, in bringing a walk around sport cruiser in a classic theme.  A lancia Sorrentina in form, although both the 42 and 52 augment the details; from the curved tumble home stern to the extra flared bow, all this make the Lancia Aprea a unique offer in the always more competitive walk around cruiser market.  Like its bigger sister the Lancia Aprea 42 is again a very semi custom offer, from ten unique color for the hulls, the first unit featured a unique Aurora Gold, and the choice theme continuing inside the cabin.  For example hull one had a forward double berth which can be spec'd as a U-shaped dinette which transforms to a double berth, and a midships cabin with twin berths and can be ordered as a double.  Other endless options come also to the power and propulsion; which start from twin 320 and go up to 440hp for the inboards, and propulsion choices of stern drives, to IPS pod drives, line shafts, and outboards with twin or triple's set up.  The outboard version is to be most powerful and faster of the choices; available with twin or triple Honda and Mercury from 350 to 400hp, giving maximum speeds up to 45 knots.

Project: Cantieri di Pisa Custom 40

Cantieri di Pisa’s Custom Division celebrated the start of construction work on a 40-metre full custom yacht at its shipyard with the coin ceremony, a fascinating ritual with deep roots in maritime tradition. Called as the Cantieri di Pisa Custom 40, this made to order super yacht was sold by the shipyard a few months ago, extends across four decks and has a steel hull with an aluminium and composite superstructure. In an unusual feature for a 40-metre boat, this yacht has six cabins for guests and four for the crew on the Lower Deck, plus the captain’s cabin and the first officer’s quarters on the Bridge Deck. Antonio Luxardo’s design projects a highly original style that’s perfectly aligned with the brand identity and the owner’s wishes. This majestic yacht created by the Custom Division features sleek exterior lines that immediately bring to mind the classic style features of the shipyard’s most iconic models, such as the black and white air intake grilles, the black band running the length of the hull and the handrails transformed into design features. The custom yacht will have a gross tonnage under 500 GT and a length of 40 metres, providing the right space and comfort for a unique new layout on a boat this size, starting with the six cabins for guests; a refined owner’s stateroom with a private terrace forward on the Main Deck, plus four guest cabins and a VIP cabin on the Lower Deck. Then there are the six crew cabins, including the captain’s cabin next to the wheelhouse and the first officer’s quarters on the Bridge Deck. Two generous salons are located on the Main and Bridge Decks. The relaxation areas on all four decks are designed with loose furniture, sun loungers, sofas and sunbeds, while the aft cockpit is home to a large Jacuzzi. Also suitable for charter, the yacht is ideal for cruising anywhere in the world and features state-of-the-art entertainment systems. The Cantiere di Pisa Custom 40 engineering was developed by Studio Sa.Ma.Re Design by Francesco Samarelli with support from Antonio Luxardo, chief designer at Cantieri di Pisa, and Optima Design, the firm he founded in La Spezia. Built to Bureau Veritas class from steel and the superstructure from aluminium and advanced composite materials using vacuum technology, a distinguishing feature of Cantieri di Pisa’s product line that results in lighter weight and a lower centre of gravity, and therefore better propulsion efficiency and reduced fuel consumption. The large garage in the midship section of the yacht has a lateral launching system for a tender up to 6.6 metres in length, plus various water toys and a jet ski. There’s also a fully fitted galley, various pantries on all four decks, fridge and freezer areas and a high-capacity laundry, which taken together with the generous storage spaces on every deck, make this 40-metre yacht ideal for long stays on board in total comfort. The propulsion will be provided by two Man 1550hp engines, giving the Custom 40 an estimated top speed of fifteen knots and a range of 2,000 nautical miles at cruising speed.

New Model: Maritimo M50 Flybridge Motor Yacht

Maritimo, Australia’s world-class luxury motor yacht builder, expands its next-generation model line-up as it global launched the all-new M50 Flybridge Motor Yacht at the Sanctuary Cove International Boat Show on May 2025. A brand defined by its relentless pursuit of perfection, Maritimo has further evolved its acclaimed M Series motor yachts, with extensive customer consultation fed directly into the Australian-based design team, resulting in a very distinguished fifteen meter motor that’s set to redefine its class. Thousands of design and engineering hours have shaped the M50 into a vessel of refined elegance and purposeful functionality, with balanced proportions from every angle. Each detail has been scrutinised and elevated. Stepping aboard, guests are greeted with an abundance of space and luxury. The innovative rear swim platform raises and folds to reduce the vessel’s length by 750mm when docked, and then when deployed, it transforms into a spacious entertainment area ideal for all water-based activities. Access to the lazarette is via a hatch in the rear of the large entertainment module, containing the built-in barbecue and refrigerator. Further access is also provided under the long seating unit that runs across the forward end of the entertainment module, avoiding the need for heavy actuators to lift the deck and console area. Maritimo’s signature safety is ever-present, with high sides protecting those that are required to move forward, for anchoring or access to the tender, if stowed at the front. The Maritimo engineered articulating swim platform adds further protection to the rear of the vessel, when raised during cruising. The cockpit area provides a fabulous alfresco dining experience and is an entertainer’s dream, flowing seamlessly into the galley and saloon, creating a cohesive, visually clean space. The galley is a ‘chef’s delight’ and features European appliances, impeccable finishes, and immense storage, servicing both the cockpit and saloon with ease. The galley also features plenty of bench space for preparation and service, with a central island bench within the ‘L’ shaped format, which sweeps around the right-hand side of the space. Adjacent, Maritimo’s hallmark internal rear facing staircase leads to the enclosed flybridge on the level above. Natural light fills every internal space. The panoramic saloon windows subtly lowered in the design give commanding views in luxurious comfort from the upper enclosed flybridge. Expansive glass provides 360-degree visibility in a fully protected, climate-controlled environment. Light and air is also brought into the luxurious space via the long strip skylight, with forward and rear opening hatches above in the bridge hardtop. Twin sculpted helm seats ensure comfort and support during long passages, delivering both confidence and enjoyment whilst at sea. The M50 boasts a large bridge that can accommodate two or three screens that visually float above the console, with all other electronics and equipment is thoughtfully placed and within touch. A large cruising lounge is positioned opposite the helm to ensure the journey is as enjoyable as the destination itself. Generous storage, refrigerator and pull-out convertible accommodation on the bridge level turns this space into a highly comfortable penthouse apartment for additional guests. This allows for up to eight guests to enjoy all the new M50 has to offer. The main saloon exudes plush elegance, inviting guests to linger. Moving forward, a naturally lit companionway leads to accommodation spaces that set the M50 apart. By opting for a two-cabin configuration, Maritimo avoided compromise. The symmetrical full-beam master stateroom is expansive and beautifully appointed, with a very generous ensuite, day lounge and hanger lockers at the forward end. The VIP stateroom offers flexible sleeping arrangements, with a bed that can split into singles and an enlarged second bathroom that also serves the other guests. With further accommodation provided by pull out beds in the saloon and above in the flybridge deck, the M50 offers great flexibility to cater for larger numbers of guests, when required. Natural light and ventilation feature prominently throughout: A central skylight and hatch in the VIP stateroom, Expansive side windows with opening portholes in the Master Stateroom, Skylights and hatches in both bathrooms. With a consistent minimum headroom of just under two meters, the M50 maintains a balanced, proportionally perfect silhouette, whilst optimising weight distribution and stability. Leveraging decades of offshore racing pedigree, Maritimo’s hull design delivers lift, stability, and comfort. A reverse chine runs nearly the length of the hull, while a carefully shaped keel ensures a soft re-entry in challenging seas. Powered by twin Volvo 800hp, the Maritimo M50 comfortably cruises at 24 knots, with a top speed of 30 knots, all supported by a 3700-litre fuel tank offering exceptional range and efficiency.

Apreamare introduces the Gozzo 48 Cabin, extending the Gozzo line but also the Cabin variant of the series which debuted in 2024 with the Gozzo 38 Cabin.  The Cabin versions of the Gozzo are designed to offer more cabin comfort, which add to the all length vast external spaces with more internal living comforts, becoming a cruiser which makes living aboard in the off season comfortable and cosy.  With the Gozzo 48 Cabin, Apreamare introduces also a new flagship in the Gozzo line, which now features four models and continues the path of growth and innovation with its roots in the traditional Sorrento shipyard’s maritime tradition. Designed for discerning owners, the new Gozzo 48 Cabin represents a further evolution of the Sorrentine gozzo, reimagined with a contemporary twist to offer generous spaces, liveability, utmost crafting care, and seaworthiness. The Gozzo 48 Cabin project was born once again from the brain work of Cataldo Aprea with Marco Casali from Too Design coming in for the design and style, and Umberto Tagliavini of Marine Design for the naval architecture, all these integrated with Apreamare internal technical Office. The result is a traditional cruiser that fully reflects the Apreamare vision to combine elegance, functionality and construction solidity, without ever straying from the brand’s identity.  The new Gozzo 48 Cabin stands out for its vast spaces, designed to ensure maximum comfort on board both when cruising and at anchor. The walkaround deck is designed to encourage relaxed and convivial outdoor living: as guests board find a large cockpit featuring a generous sun-pad and an L-shaped sofa. The manually adjustable outdoor table can become one with the sunbed. Alternatively, the owner can opt for an electric table that disappears into the floor. At the bow, a second sunbathing area is enriched with a comfortable and conversational arrangement with a sofa and armchairs. The interiors of the Gozzo 48 Cabin are conceived to ensure seamless continuity with the cockpit. The large glass surfaces amplify the natural light and offer well-proportioned spaces, finished with quality materials and fine craftsmanship: timber, fabrics, leather and custom details. The internal layout includes a comfortable dinette with a U-shaped sofa and a fully-equipped spacious galley, larger than any competitor in this size class. To increase functionality and comfort, Apreamare has introduced a further element of innovation: the helm seating position located starboard is equipped with an electrical function that makes it become an additional part of the sofa, giving great versatility to the spaces. The layout below deck includes the possibility of having two or three cabins with two large bathrooms featuring separate showers. At the stern it is also possible to include a crew cabin, accessible from the cockpit. From a technical point of view, the new Gozzo 48 Cabin builds on the approach of the Gozzo range, with design solutions conceived to offer safe and comfortable navigation at all times. The deep-V hull with variable geometry, designed by Umberto Tagliavini, guarantees excellent seakeeping, even in demanding conditions. The Gozzo 48 Cabin is powered by Volvo 550hp and or 600hp with IPS pod propulsion, with the larger engine option also available in line shaft option.

New Model: Baglietto Fast 43m

Baglietto have in mid April launched a new Fast 43m as designed by Francesco Paszkowski for exterior and Margherita Casprini for the interiors.  Titled m/y Speedy Bear, this Fast 43m is a semi-custom order build based on the Fast 44m semi production platform as delivered in three units between 2007 to 2013, with this born from the 42m arriving in 2003, and then evolved in the 43m series as produced from 2006 to 2012 in four units.  In short she is a Baglietto Fast super yacht in its purest form, no semi wide-body volume search, and a straight sheer line which evokes respect, a trait Baglietto started with the 1986 very special John van Neumann ordered 26m m/y Chato, and then it made its identity onwards from the 1991 33m series as designed by Giorgetti and Magretti.  A distinct detail for this new Baglietto Fast 43m is the hard-top enclosed bridge which integrates with the raised pilot house forward.  This new Fast 43m also features the classic Baglietto boxy enclosed transom which when anchored has drop down balconies that transform into a bathing beach platform on the water.  This semi-custom Baglietto Fast 43m has an interior sleeping ten guests, including an owners stateroom on the forward part of the main deck, with crew accommodation for seven, and is powered by twin 3470hp MTU for top speeds up to 27 knots.
