Project: Sunseeker 100 Yacht
Sunseeker present the project for a new 100 Yacht. With elegant, powerful lines flowing around sublime architecture, the 100 Yacht presents itself with some special features from the secluded private terrace, sunbathing hideaways, seamless flybridge to foredeck access, beautifully proportioned open-plan interior and generous Beach Club aft. Launching in autumn 2021, the new 100 Yacht is set to surprise and delight at every turn with entertainment space at the fore. Every single element has been carefully considered in meticulous detail, exuding a sophistication and detail only found in custom superyachts. The volume of this new model has been fully maximized to be below the 24 meter load line ruling, keeping this as a CE Category A yacht. The aft tender garage converts into a large and luxurious Beach Club, great for family and friends to socialize close to the water, perhaps utilizing the large built-in BBQ. The Bezenzoni ‘Ladder Gangway’ allows guests to effortlessly access the water sports on offer, after which they will be keen to use the over sized ‘rain shower’ before relaxing on the new transformation chaise lounge sunbeds. Importantly, these innovative X-Tend sunbeds allow for a multiplicity of arrangements in what is likely to be one of the key entertainment spaces on board. The X-Tend sunbeds have been skillfully integrated within the design. The sunbeds can be operated electrically to either raise upwards to face the covered cockpit seating area or alternatively, they can be lowered to face aft at Beach Club level. Perfect for relaxing with family and friends, whatever the time of day. The vast flybridge transitions seamlessly into the fore-deck with uninterrupted walk-around access on both sides. The flybridge, with optional bridge helm station is a fantastic space for entertainment with generous seating, fully-equipped wet bar and space for a spa bath or additional loungers and a new hardtop design, available with optional glazing or sliding panels. Ingeniously, the Raised Pilot House incorporates a glazed rear bulkhead allowing uninterrupted views forward from the flybridge. The foredeck provides yet another social space with two separate seating groups plus an over sized sunpad. Its unique main deck, penthouse style saloon and luxurious staterooms offer a new-found design direction and material selection providing elegant interiors to enchant any owner. The layering of textural elements and the mix of furnishings and fabrics feels timeless with a modern twist that oozes sleek simplicity and sophistication. Floor-to-ceiling glazing floods the considerable saloon with natural daylight, complemented by optional sliding doors to starboard for additional access. A dedicated dining area for eight aides the apartment-style ambience. The large galley forward is concealed behind a glass bulkhead and offers plentiful space and direct side deck access for crew. The forward crew quarters can be accessed through the galley with accommodation for five crew in a three cabin, three en-suite configuration. The stunning feature wall forward of the dining room showcases exposed and seemingly floating stair treads leading to the pilothouse above on the port side and lower deck access to starboard. The unique main deck layout includes a luxurious master stateroom for even greater flexibility and freedom on board. The full-beam stateroom offers same level en-suite access, walk-in wardrobe, office and large lobby entrance. Bathed in natural light courtesy of over-sized glazing, owners can also access a first-in-class foredeck terrace for ultimate privacy and entertainment through a cleverly sculptured, fully-glazed sliding door forward. Her elegant interior has been carefully designed to exude expansive space and light throughout. Below deck, four generous guest cabins each with an en-suite flow from a central landing. The fresh design direction for this new model goes beyond her dramatic new exterior lines. There is flexibility in how the ‘Beach Club’ and tender arrangements can be configured. The tender garage, which can be flooded at the touch of a button, can be furnished with a Williams 460 Sportjet and Seabobs or alternatively, there is ample stowage for a Williams 395 Sportjet with a GTX255 jet ski. The Sunseeker 100 Yacht is to be powered by twin 2640hp MTU which allow for top speeds up to 28 knots.

Yacht on Fire at Umm Suqiem Marina Dubai
A sixteen meter motor yacht went ablaze and eventually sank when berthed at Umm Suqiem Marina, Dubai, United Arab Emirates on 08:21 of the morning of Friday 24 January. The yacht was reported unattended when the fire started with the Director of Maritime Rescue at Dubai Police and Dubai Civil Defense responding fast to the blaze. No one was injured in the fire with damage restricted to this yacht, thanks to the quick intervention of the Dubai authorities in moving the vessel and controlling the blaze in just eight minutes. The yacht eventually sank in the southern part of the marina near the Sayorah street bridge. The yacht was eventually boon protected for pollution, and then removed just short of three months later on Saturday eleven April.
This sixteen meter flybridge motor yacht in this fire looks to be of United Arab Emirates origin build, with the forward part looking similar to some of the nineties Gulf Crafts but different in the rest.

Project: Raffaelli 21,30 mt HT
Raffaelli present the project for a seventy feet plus hard top sport yacht. This sport yacht is based on the Ontera 70 hull, and presents a completely redesigned upper structure. The lower deck of the Raffaelli hard top offers four double cabins including a separate entry master cabin at midship. Another particular difference in the guest accommodation for a yacht this size is the VIP cabin also located at midship, but further forward to the owners cabin. Crew accommodation is for two in a forward cabin. All the living and dining is located on the main deck, with a traditional Italian separate galley in standard layout located behind the helm station to starboard. Power for the Raffaelli is by twin 1150hp MTU with line shaft propulsion. No performance numbers are communicated but I would expect similar thirty knots performance of the Ontera flybridge model.
