New Launch: Turquoise 76m NB75
Turquoise Yachts has launched the 76m hull number NB75 and titled N2H. Formerly known as NB75 Project Arrow, from its outfitting facilities in Pendik, Istanbul. Turquoise NB75 marks the first hybrid yacht built by the Turkish shipyard, and features naval architecture by the same Turquoise, exterior styling by Team For Design of Enrico Gobbi and interior design by H2 Yacht Design. This launch follows that of 87m Project Vento earlier this year. N2H’s exterior by Enirco Gobbi Team For Design who went for clean, dynamic lines and a carefully balanced profile that conveys both elegance and sportiness. A defining feature is the sculptural arch crowning the sun deck, incorporating a large glass surface, while long, narrow glazing in the superstructure visually extends the yacht’s length. Onboard, the interiors benefit from generous headroom, ranging from 2.5 to 2.65m on the main deck, alongside floor-to-ceiling windows and sliding doors that bring the outdoors in. H2 Yacht Design builds on this openness to create an environment that feels both bright and inviting, with the open-plan layout thoughtfully segmented to preserve a sense of space while defining more intimate, functional areas. Key interior spaces include the main deck saloon, which is divided into a lounge and cinema area by a suspended fireplace. Sliding doors lead out to the aft deck, while interior steps descend to an expansive beach club designed as a spa-like retreat, complete with a gym, hammam, sauna and folding terraces on either side. The full-beam owner’s suite on the main deck forward features a bedroom to port and an office to starboard, separated by a central dressing area. Both spaces benefit from dedicated bathrooms and large sliding doors opening onto private folding terraces. Four generously sized guest cabins are located on the lower deck. The upper deck offers another lounge and cinema space that flows into a circular dining area with curved glass doors, creating an indoor-outdoor experience with 180-degree views and direct access to the aft deck. Forward of the wheelhouse, a built-in sofa provides an exterior recreation area for crew, while on the bow, a touch-and-go helipad doubles as an outdoor cinema. The sun deck is divided into two distinct areas. Forward, a dining and lounge space features a pop-up glass windbreak with an integrated TV. Aft, a social lounge includes sofas, sunpads and a pool. In a first for the yachting industry, this 76 meter Turquise mega yacht is powered by MTU’s integrated hybrid propulsion system, combining twin 2570hp diesel engines with a 1.5MW lithium battery bank. This enables speeds of up to 10 knots in battery mode, as well as extended periods of emission-free operation. Further innovations onboard include a futuristic wheelhouse equipped with a Kongsberg Integrated Bridge System. Supporting navigation and watchkeeping, a SEA.AI Sentry system provides enhanced situational awareness for the bridge team.

Project: ISA Yachts Blade 70-metre
ISA Yachts presents Blade 70 metres, a new project marking the start of a strategic collaboration with Lobanov Design, the studio led by Igor Lobanov, renowned for its sculptural and highly distinctive approach to contemporary yacht design. ISA Blade 70-metre has been conceived with the ambition of creating the most elegant and stylistically recognisable yacht in the grand sport segment, a category defined by fast, sporty yachts featuring vertical or near-vertical bows. The Blade project stands out for its deep exploration of personality and formal identity, drawing inspiration from the elegant ships designed between the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The bow, slightly reversed and concave in profile, becomes one of the defining elements of this superyacht. It is enriched with decorative stainless-steel details, while the anchor niche is fully integrated and concealed, and the fairleads are custom-designed, all contributing to a clean, refined and highly sophisticated aesthetic. The entire yacht is conceived as a continuous sculpture, with fluid, uninterrupted lines flowing seamlessly from bow to stern. Hull graphics are intentionally hidden and integrated into the volume, while the glazing features glass panels with dotted films and an unexpected black insert positioned forward, close to the waterline, creating a strong and distinctive graphic accent. The superstructure is composed entirely of glass panels and black-painted surfaces, topped by a subtle dynamic curve that evokes speed and motion. The exterior design is further enhanced by unique elements such as recessed teak inserts, custom fender details and a transforming aft garage / beach club door which, when closed, becomes a wooden bench overlooking the sea, expanding the yacht’s outdoor living experience. The interior layout reflects an evolved owner’s vision: the master suite is located aft on the upper deck, offering a private terrace and the opportunity to wake up to open sea views in complete privacy. The ISA Blade 70 metres has a gross tonnage of 1,300 GT, a steel hull and an aluminium superstructure. She is powered by two MTU delivering 2374hp, achieving a maximum speed of seventeen knots and a cruising speed of fourteen knots. At cruising speed, the yacht offers a range of approximately five thousand nautical miles. With ISA Blade 70 metres, Palumbo Superyachts strengthens its position in the large sport superyacht segment and reaffirms its commitment to developing iconic projects.

Improve-it = Palm Beach Motor Yachts GT50
Performance has always been central to the DNA of Palm Beach Motor Yachts. Now, the company is taking that philosophy to a new level with the launch of the first Palm Beach GT50 RS, a yacht that combines exhilarating outboard-powered performance with the refinement, sophistication, and craftsmanship expected aboard every Palm Beach Motor Yacht. Powered by quad Mercury 500R V8 outboards producing a combined two thousand horsepower, the GT50 RS achieves speeds of 50 knots while still delivering the quiet ride, composure, and comfort Palm Beach Motor Yachts is known for. More than just a high-performance outboard yacht, the GT50 RS redefines what owners can expect from the outboard category. Like many Palm Beach Motor Yachts models, the GT50 RS was born from client demand. Designed for an experienced yachtsman seeking high-speed coastal commuting and cruising capability, hull number one will serve as a stylish commuter between Connecticut and Long Island transforming the often-demanding run between destinations into something genuinely exciting, even in challenging conditions. The GT50 RS delivers the exhilaration of a high-performance outboard yacht, while large opening windows and sunroof create an open-air, sports car-like driving experience. When owners choose to step out of the wind and elements, the helm and salon can be enclosed to provide quiet, air-conditioned comfort more reminiscent of a luxury automobile than a traditional outboard-powered yacht.
New Model: Viking 50 Billfish
The Viking 50 Billfish carries forward a series designed for fishing and built with Viking semi-custom quality. From the 37 and 38 to the 46 and now the 50, the Billfish line has kept its identity: a classic dayboat profile with an inset bridge, clean lines and serious cockpit space. Hull No. 1 is now in Hawaii, where she will be used to target world-record blue marlin. At fifteen square meters, the cockpit keeps the focus on fishing, with a teak sole and covering boards, mezzanine seating, fighting chair, rod holders and ample dry and refrigerated storage. The flybridge and center console helm are arranged for long days offshore. Twin displays are flush-mounted and easy to see and access, with instruments and controls inside dual radio boxes siding the teak helm pod; there’s more electronics in the hardtop’s recessed area. The captain has a clear sightline aft to the cockpit. The Viking 50 Billfish offers a cabin layout with two or three cabins version, with an option to have a three berth forward cabin replacing the central double queen berth. In the three cabins version, the third cabin replaces the tackle storage room. The Viking 50 Billfish is powered by twin MAN 1200hp or optional Scania 1150hp.

New Model: Beneteau Gran Turismo 40
Seeing the sport cruiser segment changing in recent years, Beneteau made a big turn around and decided to redesign all its Gran Turismo range with three new models. This new second generation Gran Turismo 40 shows the way forward for what has been Beneteau's success of the last two decades, with this model a replacement to the Gran Turismo 41 produced since 2021, what was previously the first generation Gran Turismo 40, Flyer Gran Turismo 38, and debuted as the Monte Carlo 37 in 2006. It's been nineteen years of improving for what over the years became the European sport cruiser standard. With this new Gran Turismo 40, Beneteau instructed its long standing designer Andreani; he designed all the four models mentioned, to make a hybrid, a sport cruiser which brings the amenities of the walk-around cruisers which are dominating the market, like the Fjord, Pardo's and Solaris Power models mixed to those of a cabin boat. This new Gran Turismo is just that offering for half its length full walk-around comfort, which expands more thanks to the drop down bulkheads, and then from midships it is a cabin boat, with the helm station also enclosing itself from the aft deck, and the forward raised deck which offers lower deck cabin space for four. The new Benateau Gran Turismo 40 is powered by twin Yanmar 370hp on stern drives propulsion for speeds up to 32 knots, with an outboard gas petrol twin Mercury 400hp also being available. The second generation Gran Turismo 40 is also offered in the Alpine Edition, for special details and finishing to make that more special.
