New Model: Sanlorenzo 50Steel

Sanlorenzo has launched its new 50Steel model, the first super yacht to feature a green methanol fuel-cell system as developed by the Italian yard with Siemens Energy.  Designed by Zuccon for exterior and Piero Lissoni the 50Steel is a new entry level to its flagship Steel range which today features five models up to 73 meters.  Titled Almax, the first 50Steel was commissioned by Sanlorenzo chairman Massimo Perotti, with the first unit launched in May 2024.  The 50Steel shows the spirt of innovation that Perotti has brought at Sanlorenzo, with this fifty meters semi-custom super yacht not only bringing green technology at the heart of the project, but also a re-thinking of the spaces, with the engine room position which frees the main deck to add more spaces for the guests.  With the HER as Sanlorenzo calls its Hidden Engine Room, locating it totally horizontal in the lower deck, the 50Steel frees space up offering a 150 square meters Ocean Lounge, which is joined by a split level layout as seen on the SP110 serving this massive aft deck from inside.  The Sanlorenzo 50Steel is powered by twin Man 1430hp for a top speed of sixteen knots, a cruise of twelve, and up to four thousand nautical miles of range at eleven knots.  As clean energy goes the Sanlorenzo 50Steel is the first Green-Methanol fuel cell technology yacht, with this system generating 100kw and able to keep its Hotel-load, or the consumption of the yacht besides its propulsion while away from its berth.  Thanks to this system the 50Steel gives a 90% emissions free of its total fuel consumption.

New Model: Sunseeker Ocean 156

Sunseeker present the Ocean 156, the second hull and third model of the more volume focused Ocean line of yachts. Boasting a much larger feeling of space than other yachts of its size and with extremely flexible design options, the Ocean 156 is set to be a phenomenon in every ocean across the globe.  With a completely enclosed upper deck, like the Ocean 182 and single helm station, the Ocean 156 leaves ample space on board for multi-purpose use, thanks to maximised internal volume and gross tonnage, especially in her seamless, extended saloon and upper deck area.  The upper deck area has similarities to a Portuguese deck with more space, allowing usable, social areas for seating, sun pads and spa tub options. Throughout, design layouts are completely customisable enabling owners to personalise to their own style and practical needs. This is made more achievable thanks to minimal intrusions such as fixed furniture as well as single-level flooring throughout the majority of space on board.  Step into the main deck saloon and you are met with a 360˚panoramic vista owed to the full height and vertical glazing surround. With a luxury penthouse apartment feel, the area can be customised with multiple arrangements including an open galley and dining aft with bar area forward for an open plan set up. Patio doors are situated port and starboard to connect the outside with the stunning interior and an impressive vertical, glazed, floating staircase sits centrally but is subtle so as not to draw the eye away from the impressive settings. Another option for those who favour more privacy, with crew on board, is a central galley layout with options to enclose at varying levels, separating guests and crew. A large saloon sofa seat and TV sits aft with bar and dining forward of the galley and counter-level worktops.  The Ocean 156 accommodates a master stateroom option on the main deck to benefit owners from the impressive views and foredeck access outside. On the lower deck, the full beam master aft features ample storage, a vanity desk and connecting en-suite with twin basins. In a standard configuration, the lower accommodation comprises of a forward VIP and two guest cabins with an optional sliding berth cabin accommodate additional guests in comfort. There is also option for crew accommodation forward of the engine room with appliance block and worktop space for self-sufficiency. The lower deck once again has a completely level floor between the master and VIP, something that is rare on a yacht of its size and will benefit those on board in the subtlest of ways.  The Sunseeker Ocean 156 is powered by twin Man 1650hp for top speeds up to 25 knots.

New Model: Prestige F5.7

Prestige yacht present the all new F5.7, a flybridge motor yacht with a lot of thought going into volume and space in its design brief, and an unusual for these times and size forward master stateroom layout.  Designed as all Prestige by Garroni, with Valentina Militerno de Romadis for the interior, and Prestige Engineering doing the naval architecture and joining the dots together.  Versus most if not all of the competition in this size the Prestige F5.7 dares to be different offering a large owners stateroom forward layout, with a second VIP suite to midships port side, and a third cabin with twin berths to starboard.  It is not the first time that a forward owners stateroom plan has been tried in above fifteen meters since midships room became mandatory by the end of the noughties, with some of these projects having a moderate success.  Although this has happened more in the fifteen meter size, rather then the seventeen of the Prestige F5.7.  Dare to be different is the name of the game, some might say, and the spaciousness of the forward master stateroom offers the volume to back this up, with the F5.7 being one of the few yachts in its size to offer a three shower head layout.  Forward owners stateroom apart the Prestige F5.7 is also about its aft galley main living deck, which looks to be much more spacious to its beam, and also feeling liveable thanks to some interesting solutions which are not new, but seem to connect very well together.

New Model: Benetti B.Now 67M

On July 19 at its Livorno shipyard, Benetti marked a new milestone with the launch of M/Y Iryna 66m, the first model in the B.Now 67M semi-custom family. The owner renewed his confidence in the Shipyard by commissioning the construction of this vessel, eager to continue his evolution in the Benetti range, with the guarantee of superior construction and design quality. The exterior styling is by Redman Whiteley Dixon, the renowned UK firm with which Benetti has worked successfully on the entire B.Now line. The first B.Now 67M features the innovative Oasis Deck® concept, a solution that revolutionizes the aft cockpit concept, transforming the vertical barriers into an extension of the deck and offering more conviviality in contact with the sea, a built-in pool, and a 270-degree field of view in 190 square metres of surface area. The aft salon is a mix of sunlight and shade so that guests can enjoy the deck at any time of day, while the Social Design turns the entire deck into a spacious oasis of conviviality. The colouring of the hull and superstructure is personalized to point up the exterior styling with three different shades of grey. The boat is also characterized by extensive, mainly curved glazing that covers up to 70% of the overall vertical surface area. The almost entirely bespoke interiors were designed by Benetti’s Interior Design Department under the direction of Mariarosa Remedi. A crucial role in defining the spaces was played by the owner, who asked the Shipyard to create a setting to showcase the loose furniture produced by one of his favourite brands, Visionnaire. The spacious interiors are exquisitely clad in leather that hasn’t been treated with chemicals and, in the case of the Lower Deck, is custom designed for this boat. Prestige woods, such as curly maple wood and macassar ebony, cover the floors together with marble-effect ceramic tiling, chosen by the customer as a more ecological alternative to marble. With a steel hull, the Benetti B.Now 67M has six decks. From the top observation deck down to the under Lower deck, this super yacht is extremely spacious both outdoors, with around 500 square metres of usable space, and indoors with a 65-square-metre Main Salon and a full-beam owner’s suite on the Upper Deck, made possible by moving the wheelhouse and captain’s cabin up to the next deck. With two VIP cabins on the Main Deck and four cabins on the Lower Deck, the B.Now 67M accommodates up to 15 guests. There are numerous wellness areas, including a sauna in the beach club and a gym on the Main Deck, both built at the owner’s request. This new boat will be delivered to her owner at the end of the summer in a new record for Benetti, which with the B.Now platform concept successfully completed the project in under three years from the first sketches on a blank sheet of paper.

New Model: Apreamare Maestro 88

 

Apreamare is pleased to announce that on Saturday August third a launch ceremony was held where the new Maestro 88 touched the sea for the first time.  The private celebration was attended by the owner, an Italian and an admirer of the Apreamare brand who already owns other boats by the Sorrentine shipyard. The owner brought his family and expressly requested the attendance of all the workers and suppliers who contributed with passion and dedication to the realization of this fascinating and ambitious project, in addition to the Apreamare management. The traditional christening ritual sealed the launch to the notes of the Mameli anthem, a song chosen to represent the essence of the all-Italian project, which proudly represents Made in Italy for the world to see.  The ceremony was a moment of great emotion for both the owner and the shipyard, testifying to the important milestone as summarized by CEO Rita Pollio and President Cataldo Aprea.  The Maestro 88 is the largest Apreamare to date, replacing the Maestro 82 as produced from 2008 to 2020 in ten units.  The new Maestro 88 represented a new challenge for the Sorrentine shipyard, for the architect Marco Casali and for the engineer Umberto Tagliavini. It is a totally custom-built vessel with a semi-planning hull that maintains the family feeling of the previous Maestro line while introducing profound stylistic and functional innovations.  27.10 meters long and 7 meters wide with a draft of 1.80 meters and a displacement at full load of 90 tons, the Maestro 88 is powered by two 1,650 horsepower MAN engines, capable of reaching a maximum speed of 22 knots and a range of 1,000 nautical miles at a cruising speed of 10 knots. The owner of the first unit opted for more powerful 2,000 horsepower engines, perfectly balancing weight and power for long-range navigation in absolute comfort.  The exterior lines integrate perfectly with the bright interiors and large living spaces, which include a large beach club and a long sliding glass window on the main deck to bring the sea even closer. On the flybridge, there is a relaxation area, a galley with a wet-bar and solar panels. The interiors are completely customizable, available in configurations of up to four cabins and ample space for entertainment, all aimed at a superior quality of life on board, especially for long-range cruises.

New Model: Evo Yachts R4+

Evo R4+ is the new R line model born from the desire to enhance the Evo R+’s closed deck, which attracted considerable interest after the World premiere of the seventeen meter model at the 2023 Cannes boat show. The new R4+ oject is another step forward in Evo Yachts journey of experimentation with new materials such as aluminium, with a view to introducing more environmentally sustainable processes. Evo Yachts and Valerio Rivellini, the designer of both exteriors and interiors, but also the designer to date of all Evo Yachts models worked to launch a model on the market that combines extremely liveable exteriors with the comfort of a cabin cruiser. The result is a thirteen-metre sport cruiser with striking styling that also offers exceptional comfort and lets owners enjoy cruises in all weather conditions, using the various areas in different ways, according to their needs, thanks to innovative, modular solutions for the hard top and stern area. The aluminium hard top is produced in the shipyard and features several removable Plexiglas parts that allow this area to be partially opened, offering different living conditions according to requirements and the weather. As can be seen, this innovative solution offers the benefits of two different types of boat: with the hard top removed, the sensation is of an open yacht connected seamlessly to the surrounding environment, but always with the option of a quick and easy change of scene. But that’s not the only innovation offered by this hard top, which has a spoiler in the forward section for natural ventilation, while the ceiling is clad in Alcantara panels that give this setting a hybrid outdoor/indoor look. Evo Yachts has also developed a special LED lighting system that makes this space particularly enjoyable and atmospheric when it’s dark. The hard top also features carefully designed supports for radar and other systems, which are increasingly in demand even on yachts this size. In the beach area, the totally custom multifunctional stern platform adds an extra metre in length to the boat when open, as well as offering a range of different ways to take full advantage of the yacht. This tender lift transformer is the result of collaboration between the Blu Emme shipyard, designer Valerio Rivellini and Besenzoni. The system’s excellent mechanical characteristics and movement mechanisms allow the swim platform to be lowered to about 80 centimetres below the sea’s surface, making it easier to enter or leave the water at any point of the stern, or to be extended completely for safe, convenient access even from high piers. The platform is wide enough to be used as a boarding ladder even with a tender or jet ski moored to it, without having to remove them. The sun sofa island featured in the centre of the beach area is accompanied by a multifunctional sliding dining table. The beach area and cockpit are designed for easy transformation according to guests’ different needs at different times of day: from a generous sun lounge to a dining area. The Mercuri brothers’ Shipyard has once again successfully combined the benefits of two types of boat; walkaround and cabin cruiser in a highly innovative product that’s ideal for owner families who want to enjoy their boat year-round and are looking for a compromise between comfort and sportiness. Like the other models in the R line, the R4+ is a fast day cruiser features the innovation that has made Evo Yachts models famous around the world: the beach area can be completely transformed by activating the brand’s hallmark “XTension” bulwarks, which open out hydraulically in under thirty seconds to increase usable deck space by 40% and turn the cockpit into a 25-square-metre ‘pieds dans l’eau’ terrace that can be fitted out as desired. The premium interiors below deck are functional and can be personalised, offering comfortable settings where the focus is once again on transformability. A door opens onto the finely designed Plexiglas staircase, with a lighting system and large non-slip steps, and leads to a double cabin. Forward of the bathroom is a generous dinette with a kitchen unit large enough to accommodate various appliances, a foldaway table that can be converted into another double bed, and a mirror with a built-in TV. The generous spaces are in part thanks to the compact Volvo IPS engines and a layout designed with a special focus on ergonomics. Evo Yachts R4+ is fitted with twin Volvo 480hp engines with IPS pod drives for a top speed of 34 knots and a range of about 300 nautical miles.

Acquired in March 2023, the shipyard will be fully operational from 2025 and is now home to five production lines for the Ferretti Yachts and Wally brands, with a daily workforce that already totals 200. InFynito 80 follows the InFynito 90 and has the signature characteristics of the range; environmental friendliness, unprecedented flexibility and innovative layouts including the iconic All-Season Terrace, a much-loved architectural feature and the winner of some prestigious awards. Other strengths include the yacht’s versatility, with a sundeck that can be open or semi-open, and the sheer size, above-average for the segment of the outdoor surface areas covered and protected by the hard top or superstructure. With a length overall of over 23 Ferretti Yachts InFynito 80 is the result of collaboration between the Product Strategy Committee led by Piero Ferrari and the Ferretti Group Engineering Department, with exterior design by architect Filippo Salvetti and interiors by Ideaitalia.

They include a fast displacement hull optimized to improve fuel efficiency and minimize environmental impact, a special focus on the use of green materials; such as natural fabrics, regenerated leather, recyclable materials, ecological water-based paints and lamellar teak with FSC 5 certification, and an integrated system that stores the solar energy collected by the photovoltaic panels installed on the hard top and on the roof of the All-Season Terrace in an Energy Bank. The interior design mood chosen for this unit is Contemporary, inspired by the fresh color tones of the sea. The upper deck on InFynito 90 is replaced on the InFynito 80 by a completely open sundeck, with a hard-top providing shade for the entire dining area and helm station. The stern area on the upper deck, reserved for sunbathing, is furnished with freestanding sun loungers. The main deck layout features a main salon with twin face-to-face sofas and a TV that swings down from the ceiling. The galley occupies the forward section of the deck, with a recessed electric window that looks onto the iconic All-Season Terrace, one of the highlights of the entire range.
