Project: GX Superyachts 34 RPH

GX Superyachts has unveiled the project for an upcoming GX34 at the Palm Beach International Boat Show 2025. With sleek, timeless design and fantastic exterior spaces, it is proof positive that responsible design need make no compromise on comfort or functionality. The announcement of the new model comes hot on the heels of news that building work has already begun on the brand’s GX42 flagship. There has been such a clamour of interest around the debut of this exciting new sustainable super yachting business, that it made sense to proceed quickly with a second model. Like its bigger sister, the heart of the GX34 project is the tantalising promise of the full superyacht lifestyle without the full CO2 emissions that usually accompany it. Under the banner of the Responsible Yachting movement, GX Superyachts is spearheading a revolution in the way that even large yachts can maximise electrical power and reduce their reliance on traditional diesel. The result for the GX34 is emissions that are 30% lower than the standard. Through sister company Greenline Yachts, GX Superyachts can draw on decades of experience in hybrid diesel-electric propulsion. The solution combines twin 200kW electric motors with up to 2132kW of diesel power, for the best of both worlds. There is silent and vibration-free electric propulsion over short distances with powerful, efficient internal combustion engines for greater speeds and distances. A vast lithium-ion battery bank of up to 800kWh permits optimum power management. With the option of up to 46 solar panels for. The GX34 RPH set into the superstructure and hard top, the GX34 can generate up to 30MWh of solar energy per year to spend long periods at anchor without the need to switch on the generators. Even with the air conditioning turned right up and the help of the very efficient battery, the yacht can run hotel systems in silent electric mode for up to 48 hours, ensuring guests get a comfortable night’s sleep. And with a greater reliance on natural ventilation, that silent period lengthens considerably. When battery levels fall too low, super-efficient generators start up automatically for rapid three-hour charging. And for longer, faster passages, the twin diesel engines take the strain. In this mode, the electric motors can serve as battery chargers as well, utilising energy ‘wasted’ by the engines. This ensures that the GX34 reaches its destination with full batteries. The GX34 delivers impressive performance, boasting an oceanic range of 10,000 nautical miles in hybrid mode at six knots. It cruises comfortably at twelve knots and can reach a top speed of sixteen knots, depending on the chosen performance package, which includes the option of twin 749kW engines. Larger engine configurations and "Hybrid Sport" packages are currently under study. To create an exceptional product takes exceptional design, so GX Superyachts has assembled a team of internationally prominent designers. Marco Casali is responsible for the exterior looks and the interior styling, while Francesco Rogantin of NAMES has tuned the naval architecture for maximum efficiency and stability. The yacht unveiled at Palm Beach is the raised pilot house RPH variant, with a low-profile flybridge crowning the superstructure. But like all GX Superyachts, there is a Fly and an even slicker Coupe version available, where the roof of the superstructure forms a single elegant convex curve. All models feature a generously shaded guest cockpit aft with dining space and comfortable lounge seating. A sensational entertaining and relaxing space is centred on the lower aft deck, which grows to more than 50 square metres of space when the two side wings are lowered.  There’s the option of a saltwater pool integrated into the aft platform, which has been designed to lift and store a tender up to four meters long. On the GX34 RPH version, the generous flybridge deck can be configured according to the owner’s wishes. Informal dining, epic lounging space and a bar are all part of the vision, and the designers have also studied the option for a Jacuzzi, positioned aft with an unbeatable view. Proportions for the interior are equally grandiose. There are five guest cabins, the jewel of which is naturally the owner’s stateroom, occupying pride of place forward on the main deck. From the owner’s king-size bed, there are sweeping 270-degree views of the horizon through deep glazing. Naturally enough at this scale, the owner is welcome to bring their own designer to the project, but Casali has imagined an interior that perfectly complements the clean, aerodynamic lines of the exterior. It’s all about natural woods, leathers and stones that create a comfortable, calming oasis. These are carefully selected for their sustainability, closing the circle on this yacht’s philosophy of Responsible Yachting.

Project: Tankoa S520

Tankoa looks forward to its success, and follows the popularity of the fifty metre S501 semi custom platform, with the project of the S520 which was revealed during the 2025 Palm Beach boat show.  Coming again from the drawing board of Francesco Paszkowski, the new Tankoa S520 lengthens the S501 platform from fifty to 52 metres whilst maintaining the same winning proportions found on the previous model.  The S520 is a refreshed and two meter larger S501, in both exterior design and layout choices, with three key differences; expanded stern area, floor to ceiling windows, and more exterior spaces.  A key distinction between the S520 and the S501 can be found in the significant enhancement of the outdoor spaces on offer. This includes a longer and wider sun deck, which now comes complete with an infinity pool, an enlarged upper deck sky-lounge and an extended flybridge.  Paszkowski has reimagined the stern of the S520 so that it joins the main deck, aft platform and beach club seamlessly, thus creating the ultimate beach club concept.  This light-filled space has flexible spaces which can be arranged for a plethora of different purposes, split across two levels and opens up onto two side platforms, resulting in unparalleled contact with the ocean.  Benefitting from three light sources, a porthole facing the pool and two side portholes along the hull this space also features two sunbathing areas protected by glass which are integrated into the hull and enable usability even while cruising.  The cleverly incorporated ‘functional elements’ found in the S520 are numerous, but of note is the crane for the tender at the bow, which has been integrated into the overall design, rather than appearing as a separate technical component. Furthermore, the gangway is seamlessly built into the aft platform, majorly boosting the liveability of this space.  Relocating the staircases to the port side which serves to expand the upper deck aft and establish a fully-dedicated entertainment area the upper deck forward is purely dedicated to toy storage: ideal for the current and future generation of adventurous owners.  For the interior the standard offer is the established collaboration between Francesco Paszkowski and Margherita Casprini, the two designers have collaborated on a number of Tankoa projects over the years from the recently launched T580, the first S501, the S501 Evo, and S701.  Although being a semi custom platform, an owner can still bring his interior designer of choice.  The S520 interior is all about high ceilings and large windows than her predecessor, the architectural choices made by Paszkowski feature overlapping panels and partitions which create intentional fragmentation within the spaces for a distinctively modern effect. On the main deck, the living and dining areas are separated by panels whilst still remaining highly unified spaces. The elements found in the generous owner’s stateroom; a bedroom, lounge, study, walk-in wardrobe and vanity area, function as independent yet connected spaces. The rounded shapes and materials found here effortlessly link areas between floors and ceilings.  Indeed, throughout the S520 the carefully chosen materials cleverly join the different areas, with the subtle grey-toned colour palette extending into the furnishings and reinforcing the strong visual link between interior and exterior spaces.  The Tankoa S502 is to be powered by twin Man 1430hp engines for a top speed up to sixteen knots, a cruise of fifteen, and a long range up to 3750 nautical miles at twelve knots.

The highest interpretation of the voyager and the largest hybrid unit of the Benetti B.Yond family, the 57M features exterior lines designed by Igor Lobanov and interior styling by Bonetti Kozerski Architecture. B.Yond 57M features three different DNA, each for a distinct way to be, and three distinct stern configurations: Beach, Air, and Water, thought for specific yachting experiences. The owner of the first unit selected the Beach version, optimized for seamless access to the water with an expansive 161 square meters beach area and a fifteen square meters pool, a key feature of the yacht, full outdoor service amenities, multiple configurations of the pool area thanks to a sliding sofa system that allows to cover the pool converting this space into a lounging area. The beach area is directly connected with the convertible garage deck, another multi configuration space of one hundred square meters that, when toys are in the water, can easily be converted into an enjoyable guest’s additional shaded spot creating an outstanding external/internal area. An innovative layout elevates the guest areas on the Main Deck and consequently the main salon on the Upper Deck, allowing for memorable panoramic views through floor-to-ceiling windows and creating a 22-meter, uninterrupted open space from bow to stern. This unique concept, a result of meticulous design studies, exemplifies Benetti’s commitment to push the boundaries and set new standards in yacht design.

Project: Ferretti 800

Ferretti present the 800, a pocket super yacht which completes the circle of the range renewal which started in 2018 with the 670 model. Now Ferretti Yachts has all its models from its entry level 500 to the 1000 all designed by Filippo Salvetti. A replacement of the 780 the 800 project was presented during Boot Düsseldorf and is under construction at Ferretti Cattolica shipyard, a result of collaboration between Filippo Salvetti exterior design, Ideaeitalia for interior, and the Product Strategy Committee led by Piero Ferrari and the Ferretti Group Engineering Department. The 600 will have a length overall of just over 24 meters, a version with a shorter stern platform is also available to comply with the 24-metre limit established by French law and a maximum beam of just under six meters.  Ferretti Yachts 800 is designed to offer the owner peerless comfort and a superior on-board lifestyle for a yacht this size, thanks to optimised spaces and meticulous layout planning. The most innovative features include large windows for uninterrupted views of the surroundings from the interiors and an optional sliding door on the starboard side of the salon; perfectly separated spaces to ensure total privacy; and optimisation of the exterior surfaces and particularly the flybridge which is now forty squared meters in size, further enriching the on-board experience. Turning to the exterior design, Ferretti Yachts 800 combines a modern aesthetic with the brand’s signature identity, and follows the lines as introduced with the 860, and now to be followed in the upcoming 940. The new design has a bold personality that projects the Ferretti Yachts range into the future, combining a sporty design with sophisticated detailing. One of the characteristic features of this model is in fact the gradual slope of the flybridge’s lines down towards the stern, breaking with the tradition that they are parallel to the hull. The result is a perfect balance between timeless elegance, dynamism and impressive volume. Ideaeitalia focused its efforts on layout-related and architectural choices, aiming to enhance the elegance of the interiors at the same time as ensuring functionality and intelligent design. There was a special focus on the main deck, where an in-depth analysis of movement flows has resulted in an innovative configuration, in which the galley opens onto both the main hallway and the helm station area, with the introduction of a new concept for separating guest and crew flows. The standout elements, unusual for a boat this size, include a day head on the main deck and, in the master cabin, a freestanding dressing table, a vanity area and a particularly generous and comfortable bathroom. In a rapid overview starting on the main deck, the beach area is aft, and also offers a fold-down sofa in the transom. The cockpit has a spectacular glass parapet designed to extend the view outside and towards the beach club, with access to the crew area, which features three separate cabins with entrance from the port side walkway. Continuing through the interiors, the salon is bathed in light thanks to extensive glazing, one of the signature features of the boat, which offers uninterrupted views of the sea and the surrounding area even when sitting on the sofa. The generous interior volumes are further enhanced by the exquisite arrangement of the furniture to maximise liveability and by the two-metre ceiling height. The two interior decor moods available are Classic which taps into earthy elements, and Contemporary, featuring glowing woods and fabrics in fresh hues inspired by the colours of the sea. In perfect Made in Italy style, both are designed to offer owners an elegant, inviting and well-balanced ambiance. Moving past the living space, the dining area contains an elegant table seating eight. At the same time, the fully appointed and separate galley is directly connected to this space through a sliding section in the bulkhead. Separate walkways are another unusual feature of the yacht, allowing the crew to enter the galley from the outdoor area and then access the wheelhouse without interfering with guest flows. It’s also possible to access the helm station from the hallway, which can be closed off completely to ensure maximum privacy. The exterior living area forward features a sunbed and a forward-facing C-shaped sofa designed for comfort. On the lower deck, the sleeping area consists of a master stateroom, a VIP suite forward and two guest cabins, providing a total of eight berths. There are four en suite private bathrooms. The flybridge area is also larger than the category average thanks to the sleek, arched profile of the superstructure. On the starboard side there’s an al fresco dining area and table, with a generous storage compartment under the fibreglass sofa, while on the port side there’s a bar unit with optional stools. The freestanding furnishings such as the chairs and poufs are by Talenti. The helm station forward offers comfortable seating and excellent visibility. Ferretti Yachts 800 is powered by standard Man 1550hp for a speed up to 27 knots, and or optional 1800hp for 31 knots of wide open throttle.
