New Model: Azimut Grande 44M

Azimut launched its new flagship and largest build to date, as it splashes the first unit of the Grande 44M. A contemporary superyacht the Grande 44M also combines Hull Vane® foil technology and carbon fibre, where lightness creates new possibilities, freeing up space to dedicate an entire Deck to the owner. Enjoyed in the silence of Mild Hybrid technology. The launch of the first Grande 44M confirms the success of the strategy that has led Azimut to achieve leadership in the superyacht segment over the years. Today, over two-thirds of the Azimut's production value is represented by models over 24 meters, a testament to a corporate vision rewarded by the market and the trust of owners. The expansion of the range culminates in the new Grande 44M, which debuts in the water with seven units already sold to owners. The new flagship marks the final leg of Azimut's journey to define the contemporary superyacht, combining the evolution of its design language created by international design excellence with continuous technological innovation. The use of carbon fiber, which accounts for more than 50% of the vessel, is the cornerstone of the project: reducing the overall weight of the superstructure allows for an unprecedented four-deck architecture that breaks with the traditional layout. The fourth deck, which houses the wheelhouse and is perfectly integrated into the sleek profile designed by Alberto Mancini, frees the Upper Deck of all technical spaces, transforming it into an entire deck dedicated to the owner with private terraces overlooking the horizon. Aft, the Grande 44M features the Mezzanine Deck with a Sea View Terrace, a defining element of the Grande Trideck, made even more iconic by the See-Through Pool: a plunge pool that plays with transparency to maintain visual contact with the sea and create caustic effects that make the beach club even more magical. The original layout allowed m²atelier architecture studio to translate the design into a manifesto of intentional living. Here, the interior balances functionality and aesthetics in environments designed to give new spaces to the owner, along with the freedom to inhabit it as they please. This is how the bow area of ​​the upper deck is transformed: a veranda dining area for twelve, a private media room, or a space for guests. In every configuration, enormous windows break down visual boundaries and open a 180° view of the outdoor bow lounge where, around the firepit, guests gather to watch the sunset over the water. m2atelier—internationally renowned for projects ranging from elite residences to product design envisions a clear and uncompromising style for Azimut, punctuated by subtle, refined details.

Tankoa present the custom T580 titled m/y Diamond Binta.  Based on the 58 meter platform this custom Tankoa T580 is designed with the precious goal of building a larger yacht, encapsulating elegance and functionality, to give long-range cruising an unmistakable style that fully expresses the essence. With its sporty lines designed by Francesco Paszkowski and the luminous interior design by Margherita Casprini, T580 is a super yacht created with the result of a fruitful teamwork between the owner, designers and shipyard.  Tankoa T580 shines bright with its spacious aft beach club, enriched by fold-down bulkheads and a spa with massage room. With its generous seating area and treatment room with a glass wall that allows light to flood in when the two side terraces are lowered, it is a gem in the spotlight. But the sparkle is not yet over. T580 boasts a master suite and five guest cabins, directly connected to the beach area thanks to a unique feature, just as the owner wanted: an impressive panoramic corridor on the lower deck, which passes through an open engine room to fulfil the owner’s and his guests’ passion for engineering.  Emphasising the interplay of architectural forms, extensive wood applications, and a neutral colour palette, this custom Tankoa spaces welcome you in timeless harmony. A selection of high-quality materials, including leather, metal, and glass, further enriches the decor. But that’s not all.

New Model: Custom Line 35 Navetta

The first Custom Line Navetta 35 yacht was launched on May 28 at the Ferretti Group Superyacht Yard in Ancona, during a ceremony attended by the shipyard’s senior management, the owner’s representative, the captain, the surveyor and the employees of both Custom Line and the outside contractors involved, who celebrated the event with great satisfaction and enthusiasm. Also present at the launch were the architects who collaborated on the project, Filippo Salvetti and Chiara Massarani of ACPV Architects. The distinctive features that ensure a unique and engaging cruising experience for the owner and his guests include: the almost transparent naval architecture, which puts the sea at the centre of the on-board experience; the fluid interconnection between interiors and exteriors, which amplifies the pleasure of conviviality; and the sophisticated combinations of elegance and comfort, evident in all the yacht’s settings. The launch of the first Custom Line Navetta 35 consolidates the brand’s strategic positioning in the displacement segment under 270 GT, strengthening the synergy between innovative design and masterful craftsmanship that has defined Custom Line’s identity right from the outset. Confirming the strong interest generated by the project, the model had already recorded sales of three units before the launch of its first hull. With a length of 34 meters this yacht is the result of collaboration between the Strategic Product Committee and the Ferretti Group Engineering Department, with strategic consulting provided by Custom Line Atelier, which curated the definition and development of the interior styling to reflect the owner’s own aesthetic tastes. With exterior styling by architect Filippo Salvetti and interior architecture by ACPV ARCHITECTS Antonio Citterio Patricia Viel, the new made-to-measure yacht embodies the values of high-quality Italian craftsmanship, functional design, technological innovation and refined beauty that have been an integral part of the brand’s bespoke DNA from the outset. Extending across three decks, the layout of Custom Line Navetta 35 offers a contemporary take on life at sea, with generous functional spaces devoted to convivial living and the well-being of the owner family and their guests. With over 300 square metres of indoor and outdoor space, the settings alternate between areas designed for socialising and others for relaxation, complemented by comfy freestanding furniture and flexible layouts that encourage social interaction. The yacht can accommodate up to ten guests in five cabins – a master suite on the main deck and four guest cabins on the lower deck – while ensuring that guest and crew flows are both private and functional. The exterior design of Custom Line Navetta 35 stands out for its understated, harmonious style, featuring sculptural surfaces, balanced volumes and clean lines that produce a contemporary, dynamic silhouette. The interiors are designed to enhance the sense of space and showcase the ever-present dialogue with marine environment, thanks to the extensive use of full-height windows and the almost transparent naval architecture, designed to let natural light flood in from stern to bow and on every side. The innovative staircase is part of this effort, designed to ensure maximum privacy and blend discreetly into the interior design. The fact that there is no external staircase aft on the main deck helps create the ultimate flexible space, turning the cockpit into the yacht’s social hub. The interior design language features soft volumes, organic geometries and custom-made freestanding furniture designed by Antonio Citterio, raised off the floor so that it seems almost to float in space. In line with this bespoke vision and aesthetic, for the first Custom Line Navetta 35, ACPV developed the Light Mood based on the owner’s wishes: a concept featuring ivory, beige and caramel colourways that runs through the settings, giving them more depth, luminosity and lightness. This pursuit of balance is also reflected in the choice of materials: vibrant Pietra di Vicenza stone, pale wood floors and sand-coloured leather used for upholstery and detailing come together to create a warm and refined atmosphere. The result is a sophisticated and immersive cruising experience, in which light, materials and transparency blur the boundaries between inside and outside, transforming every space into a prime vantage point overlooking the sea.

Project: Sanlorenzo SL80A

Sanlorenzo present the SL80A project, a replacement to the SL78 as entry level to the SL range and now introducing the asymmetric architecture in its smallest size to date and in all the range.  Designed by Zuccon who is responsible for both exterior and interior, Sanlorenzo is calling the SL80A the ‘First Icon’ meaning as the smallest of the SL range.  The SL range is the expression and evolution of the original Sanlorenzo DNA and Mediterranean yacht style heritage, which today the Italian builders offers in seven models from 24 to 36 meters.  Throughout this fifty years plus of evolution Sanlorenzo became the conservative Mediterranean yacht in a consistent stylistic signature, which was started by Paolo Caliari then evolved by Della Rolle, and then in the last decade by Zuccon as each new model was built on the lessons learned of its predecessor, refining a recognisable language that balances elegance, proportion and functionality.  This heritage and lineage next step is now distilled into the SL80A, a yacht shaped by the defining traits of Sanlorenzo’s signature interpreted in a pocket 24 meters super yacht side.  Thanks to the Asymmetric layout the SL80A will bring twenty per cent more volume inside, this translated in a living, dining, galley on the main deck, and four double cabins lower deck layout.  Two crew cabins for three or four persons with direct connection from the galley located forward on the main deck complete the accommodation spaces.  Other unique details of the SL80 are a mezzanine located between the main and flybridge deck helm station, and a stylistic part hidden internal stair case which connects the saloon to the fly deck.   The Sanlorenzo SL80A is to be powered by twin MAN 1800hp engines for top speeds up to 29 knots, and a cruise 0f 25.  The first unit of nine sold is set to launch in mid-Summer and is to be finished in Thai walnut, selected for its soft tone and natural dialogue with the exterior teak surfaces, and is added with the “Azteca” parquet as designed by Cadorin.

Project: Dynamiq GST 45M

Dynamiq present a new Sturge and Toth collaboration, with the designers delivering a compelling presentation that invited guests into their creative process, offering a rare behind-the-scenes look at the principles, sketches, and logic that guide their design thinking. The result is a bold new exterior concept that launches a dedicated line within Dynamiq’s portfolio under the GST name. The initial proposal is a 45-meter modern family yacht, an intelligent and refined reimagining of previous models in the Dynamiq’s lineup. Rather than simply restyle the existing Global 450 platform, the duo set out to carefully evolve its identity, infusing the design with what they call “timeless elegance” while preserving Dynamiq’s performance-driven DNA. Toby Sturge and Ben Julian Toth explored a spectrum of design directions, from modern classic to progressive modern, before arriving at a final profile that blends strength, sculptural clarity, and refined proportions. Key features of the GST45M concept include a symmetrical double-balcony master suite, a protected stern, convertible pool area, and a whale-watching lounge at the bow, all integrated with precision and a sense of purpose. The design speaks to the future of luxury yachting; functional, elegant and thoughtfully tailored to modern lifestyles.

New Model: Numarine 27XP

Numarine, the Turkish yacht builder renowned for its long-range explorer yachts, has delivered the first unit of its all-new 27XP model. Following the project unveiling at last year's Cannes Yachting Festival, the 27XP has already generated strong interest, with five hulls sold and three currently under construction. The second and third units are scheduled for delivery in the coming months. The owner of the first hull is a repeat Numarine client upgrading from a 22XP, a reflection of the loyalty the XP range has built among experienced owners seeking greater volume and cruising capability without the complexity of a significantly larger yacht. Delivered in Istanbul, the yacht is expected to spend much of her time cruising the Greek islands and wider Aegean region. The 27XP is the natural evolution of the highly successful 26XP platform, of which thirty hulls are currently cruising worldwide, developed through years of feedback from owners and captains. The result is a larger, more capable explorer yacht with increased interior volume, expanded outdoor living and enhanced onboard functionality while preserving the core characteristics that made the XP Series so successful. The first hull has been delivered in the four cabins layout, prioritising a full beam flybridge and expanded exterior living spaces. A five cabin version is also available for owners with different cruising requirements.  Designed inside and out by Can Yalman, with naval architecture by Umberto Tagliavini, the 27XP retains the sharp, purposeful profile of Numarine's explorer range while introducing a more open onboard experience. Oversized windows maximise natural light throughout, a sliding glass door  off the main salon dissolves the boundary between interior and cockpit, and the flybridge is among the largest in its class.  The 27XP introduces Numarine's new Mk2 Super Silent Pack, developed in partnership with Sleipner. Built around a 48 volt energy architecture and integrated Hybrid Power Center, the system combines a 92.8 kWh Lithium Iron Phosphate battery bank with 5.6 kW of solar generation, shore power input and intelligent load management. Operating at higher voltage improves efficiency across all onboard systems, reduces energy losses and enables quieter, more stable electrical performance throughout the yacht.  Powered by twin MAN 560 engines, the 27XP offers a top speed up to thirteen knots, a cruising speed of ten and a transoceanic range of 2,200 nautical miles at eight knots .  The 27XP will make her world premiere at the Cannes Yachting Festival 2026

New Model: Cantiere delle Marche Deep Blue 115

Cantiere delle Marche announces the launch of the Deep Blue 115 titled m/y Octopus, a new explorer super yacht that builds upon the striking and successful Deep Blue concept developed in collaboration with designer and naval architect Horacio Bozzo.  The Deep Blue 115 traces its origins to Acala, the first CdM Deep Blue vision yacht. Initially conceived as a one-off project, Acala delivered in 2022 then became the Deep Blue 141 quickly captured the attention of enthusiasts and industry insiders alike, thanks to its distinctive design, robust explorer capabilities, exceeding expectations, as CdM received an order for a second Deep Blue 141 and requests from clients seeking yachts inspired with the same concept but on other sizes.  Responding to this strong market interest, CdM and Horacio Bozzo developed the Deep Blue range with the 130 and the 115 as an evolution of the original idea, retaining the bold identity and functionality of original Deep Blue 141 while redesigning the platform to meet the demands of her owner. Giorgio M. Cassetta has been entrusted to create yacht’s interiors that matched with the overall feel of the exterior lines, who provided an accommodation for ten guests plus two across five suites, including the Owner’s quarters, while a crew of seven is housed in four dedicated cabins..  The Deep Blue 115 embodies CdM’s core philosophy: combining seaworthiness, efficiency, and long-range capability with contemporary design and exceptional comfort, designed for extended cruising in all conditions, the yacht features generous volumes, optimized layouts, and the rugged reliability that has become synonymous with the CdM name.  With the Deep Blue 115 Cantiere delle Marche reinforces its position as a leading builder of explorer yachts, demonstrating once again its commitment to quality, and client-driven development.  Bold and elegantly flared, the Deep Blue 115’s bow features the range’s signature ‘beak look’: a distinctive design achieved by introducing a subtle gap between the upper section and the main hull. This refined detail extends from the bow all the way to the overhang of the upper deck’s stern, lending the yacht a sense of lightness and motion.  The Deep Blue 115 features more than just large windows: on the forward section of the main deck, they serve as a defining design element that shapes the yacht’s entire profile. These windows become a signature feature of the project, distinguished by their mullions that appear to float, subtly detached from the superstructure.  The cockpit, designed with functionality and relaxation en plein air in mind, gives easy access to the main indoor living areas. It includes a swimming pool, ample seating, and convenient storage. A generous swim platform not only enhances the entire beach area comfort but also adds sleekness to the yacht’s overall profile, ensuring both aesthetics and function are balanced.  A tender garage is situated aft, with an opening hatch to port.  With an overall length of 35 metres the first Deep Blue 115 is powered by twin Caterpillar 715hp, which enable a top speed of thirteen knots and ensures efficient long-range cruising of up to 5,500 nautical miles at nine knots.

The project concept was developed by Antonini Navi, while the interiors of this first unit, but also the second hull are by Hot Lab. A distinctive feature of the boat is the layout, which prioritises continuity between indoor and outdoor spaces. On the main deck, over 150 square metres of living space stretch seamlessly from stern to bow, with large sliding glass panels used to adapt the spaces as required. There are also about 160 square metres of outdoor space on the upper deck, designed to provide an active and convivial experience on board. The interiors feature a design language that skilfully combines classic and contemporary elements, creating an elegant but understated setting. The palette of materials is made up of fine finishing's featuring ribbed textures, antiqued glass surfaces and panelling lacquered in pastel colours, chosen to modulate the light and amplify the sense of space. The interplay between materials, colours and finishes creates a consistent and harmonious whole, in which every element contributes to a relaxed and sophisticated mood, perfectly in tune with the maritime setting and a casual yet sophisticated lifestyle on board.

Project: Van der Valk 30-Meter Project Berlin

Van der Valk presents the thirty meter project Berlin as designed by Guido de Groot. The project began in January 2025 when the owners decided to pursue a custom build to achieve their ideal layout for extended living aboard from April through October. The modern design remains under the 24-metre regulatory threshold of load-line-length, simplifying technical requirements while delivering the space and comfort of what nowadays is called a pocket super yacht. Project Berlin features an asymmetric layout, optimizing its seven metre beam for interior volume. The standout salon boasts large windows measuring nearly three metres long by two metres high that open for ventilation.  Rather than the typical four guest cabins, the yacht offers just two large VIP en-suite staterooms on the lower deck, tailored to the owners’ specific usage. The full-beam master suite on the main deck forward includes similarly impressive opening windows for sea views and fresh air. The custom interior will blend modern style with comfort through a playful aesthetic developed with the owners, who plan to use the yacht as a partial liveaboard rather than for charter or entertaining large groups. The yacht’s beam translates to expansive deck areas, with a sundeck featuring an aft spa pool with wraparound sun-pads, multiple seating and dining areas, plus a substantial outdoor galley with barbecue. The bow deck offers additional seating and sunpad space, reflecting the owners’ emphasis on maximizing both indoor and outdoor living. Staying below 24 metres provides practical advantages, including simplified technical installations and the ability to incorporate a tender garage for a four meter jet-diesel tender, without compromising engine room access. Despite relaxed crew regulations at this length, the owners prioritized exceptional crew welfare with three cabins, a large crew mess, and a dedicated laundry; amenities rarely found even on larger yachts. Project Berlin will feature a semi-displacement hard chine hull giving a draft of just two meters, and powered by twin MTU 1952hp will deliver a top speed of 25 knots and a twenty-knot cruise. Project Berlin is to be built in aluminium to MCA standards

New Launch: Van der Valk 39.92 M Hull no WV0145

Dutch boutique custom shipyard Van der Valk has launched its largest yacht to date, the 39.92-metre Hull number WV0145, at its facilities in Waalwijk, the Netherlands. Titled Project Evo during construction WV0145 has been christened as Shine during a launch ceremony attended by her owners, the craftsmen who brought the project to life, representatives from the design and engineering teams, owner’s representative, who introduced the owners to Van der Valk, and other members of the project team. Exterior styling for WV0145 was developed by Cristiano Gatto Design, based on an original concept by Franco Gianni of SFG Design that initially captured the owners’ attention. Cristiano Gatto Design was appointed to develop the general arrangement and interior design, later refining deck areas and contributing to the evolution of the exterior lines to ensure a cohesive overall aesthetic. A central part of the brief was to keep the yacht within an owner-friendly size, as the owner prefers to drive his own vessels, while achieving the level of finish expected on much larger yachts. The result is an interior defined by craftsmanship and material richness, featuring approximately 78 different materials, including ebony wood and fine leather finishes. Custom furniture pieces that helped inspire the project are integrated throughout the yacht. Performance was another key priority. Van der Valk WV0145 features a round-bilge, fast displacement hull refined by Ginton Naval Architects, Diana Yacht Design doing the structural analysis. Combined with lightweight aluminium construction and twin MTU 2600hp engines this custom 39 meter Van der Valk reaches top speeds up to 24 knots and a cruise of nineteen.
