Superyacht News

Inspired by evolving client expectations and perspectives, Yomira's founding partners' vision is a turning point for the future of yacht charter.

Rolls-Royce presented a new masterpiece, the Phantom Tempus Collection. 

Some of the special features included in this unique vehicle are:

The 30.5-meter Morgana has left the boatbuilding yard of Southern Winds in South Africa for her new passionate and experienced yachting owners.

She has been designed to cruise all over the world and because the owners are enthusiastic about bluewater cruising - and entering superyacht regattas - she has also been designed to top racing podiums.

These are also the reasons why the owners of the Morgana selected the Southern Winds Shipyard for their project.

The 74m yacht Synthesis has been delivered by the boatbuilder Amels and Damen Yachting to her experienced owner.

She is called 'Synthesis' and is the fifth hull in the yard's 'Limited Editions' range to be delivered since 2005.

The yacht's naval architecture was developed in-house by the Damen Yachting team.

The elegant 52-meter motor yacht Florentia has been delivered to her owner by the Viareggio-based shipyard Rossinavi.

She was launched last summer in a private ceremony and the boatbuilder hails her as a 'masterpiece'.

The aluminum superstructure and full-displacement steel hull weigh in at 810GT and the dimensions of the Florentia are generous enough for her owner and guests to easily move around.

She has a top speed of 17 knts and a cruising range of 6,500 nm - with the power coming from two Cat 1,901 kW diesel engines.

The 70-meter Ice-Class superyacht Polaris has been launched by the Italian boatbuilder Rossinavi.

She is the largest yacht to be created by the boatbuilder and has been designed to navigate extreme ice conditions - including polar areas.

She was known previously as Project King Shark and has been designed to sail from sub-zero weather conditions to the Caribbean's warm waters.

The 49.8-meter superyacht Amare II has been delivered to her owners by the Dutch boatyard Heesen.

She was previously known as Project Electra and the handover took place after she underwent successful sea trials in the North Sea.

The Amare II is capable of travelling at 17.2 knots while in diesel mode - and can manage 10.2 knots in silent mode.

She is the second hull in the Dutch firm's 50-meter 5000 Class and the yacht-builder says her diesel-hybrid propulsion system is not only more fuel-efficient but also quieter.

The system enables the motor yacht to have four cruising modes - including silent cruising.

The imposing and striking 142-meter Nord has undergone extensive sea trials in the North Sea.

Built by Lurssen in Germany, the luxury superyacht was once known as Project Opus and has been the focus of a lot of yachting world attention in 2020.

She was launched in 2019 and will be home to 36 guests in 20 en-suite staterooms, including the owner's suite.

The interior and exterior have been created by the award-winning Italian Nuvolari Lenard design studio and they have conjured up an impressive motor yacht.

She features an extensive foredeck, covered aft decks, and a bulbous bow.

Two of her decks sit within the hull, and the remaining four decks are part of her superstructure.

Nord’s amenities are ultra-luxurious

The Nord’s amenities are ultra-luxurious, and she has spectacular features which include an oversized swimming pool, a sundeck Jacuzzi, a spa room, a beach club and two helipads.

The stylish 52-meter custom-built superyacht Florentia has been launched by the Italian yard, Rossinavi.

She offers accommodation for 12 guests in her spacious 800GT interior.

There are two double and two-state guest bedrooms located on the yacht's lower deck - plus the crew's quarters of five twin rooms, a living room and kitchen for 11.

The owner's master cabin sits forward of the main deck and has two walk-in wardrobes and a private balcony.

The third hull in Tankoa Yachts’ all-aluminum series, the Olokun, has been launched at their yard in Genoa.

The stylish 50-meter motor yacht has a distinctive black hull with a metallic grey superstructure that has been designed by Francesco Paszkowski.

The interior has been designed by the US-based studio, Casadio Miami/London.

The chief executive of Tankoa Yachts, Vincenzo Poerio, said: "Hull number three was started on spec with the owner coming to the project quite late.

‘Maximum flexibility to tailor the yacht’

"But as a boutique shipyard, we offered him maximum flexibility to tailor the yacht to his personal needs.

Italian shipbuilder CRN has delivered its latest, and fully-custom steel and aluminum M/Y 137 megayacht. The historic shipyard has created the 62m vessel, and she has now set sail on her maiden Mediterranean cruise.

The yacht has an inimitably Italian touch with aerodynamic external lines, with the smoky quartz hull delivering a striking impression. Owner’s personality and resolve shines through’.

She was built at CRN’s Ancona shipyard in Italy, and the yacht builder says: “The owner’s personality and resolve shine through in the bold and unmistakable lines that stand out for miles.”

She is the latest in Heesen Yacht's 55-metre Steel class, and now Project Castor has been delivered.

Her owner has renamed her 'Solemates', and Omega Architects' Frank Laupman designed the exterior, which Heesen describes as having 'muscular exterior lines'.

The fast displacement hull of the 760GT yacht has been designed by Dutch hydrodynamicists, Van Oossanen Naval Architects.

The new Mangusta GranSport 33 yacht has been launched and has undergone sea trials.

She is the first vessel in the series built by Overmarine Group.

The GranSport 33 is the entry-level offering with space and technology that is normally found on much larger yachts.

Mangusta says that the comfortable and sporty vessel offers a 'timeless elegance'.

The elegant Swan 98 yacht from Nautor marks the start of a new Maxi Swan era.

Life began as a project that was presented in 2018 in Monaco, and now the Swan 98 has taken to the seas.

With her 30 square meters of volume, she offers owners a yacht that symbolizes seaworthiness and elegance.

The exterior has been designed by naval architect Germán Frers, with the interior designed by Misa Poggi.

Yacht builders Amels and Damen Yachting have unveiled plans for what will be the largest ever superyacht built in the Netherlands.

The 120m Project Signature is the creation of award-winning designer Espen Øino.

Imperial, the Monaco-based representative of the owner, will supervise the yacht building process.

Imperial director, Julia Stewart, said: "This day is a special one for Imperial - we confirm our leadership in the 100m+ superyachts new construction range. With this dream team at the helm, Project Signature will be the most striking, silent and advanced superyacht ever delivered and we look forward to commence."

The world's largest aluminum sailing yacht, the schooner Sea Eagle II has undergone a series of successful sea trials before being delivered to her owner.

She has also entered the top 10 of the world's largest sailing yachts.

The impressive three-masted schooner has been built by Royal Huisman in the Netherlands and the stylish interior was designed by Mark Whiteley Design while the exterior was created by Dykstra Naval Architects.

She was launched in Amsterdam and it's here that her three carbon Rondal masts and booms were installed but the Covid-19 restrictions prevented the finishing touch trials in the North Sea from being completed.

The 107-meter giga-yacht Lana has now been handed over to her owner by the builders, Benetti.

She is one of the largest yachts ever built by the Italian shipyard and will now join the Imperial charter fleet.

The final touches to the luxurious and impressive creation took place over the winter and included new features specified by the client who wanted two state-of-the-art Kongsberg wing stations.

The yard also points out that her complex equipment had to undergo an ‘extraordinary and rigorous’ amount of commissioning and testing before final delivery.

The new 55-meter megayacht Geco has been launched by Admiral Fleet with the aim of offering a luxurious and fun option in the world of luxury yacht charters.

The flagship arm of the Italian Sea Group - one of the yachting world's largest operations – is renowned for the refit and construction of ships and motor yachts of up to 100 meters.

M/Y Geco has been designed by the firm's art director Gian Marco Campanino who has conjured up an impressive, modern, and sleek creation from the striking style of her bow to the revolutionary design of the stern.

There is also, a first for this type of yacht, a beach club hosted at the stern with glass walls to deliver protection from the wind and elements while giving the owner and their guests a large sunbathing platform.
