POLARIS is the second unit of Prince Shark 49m and it has been exclusively designed for Rossinavi Shipyard. Enrico Gobbi of Team For Design was in charge of the interior and exterior design, achieving an excellent result giving such dimensions. On the other hand, her naval architecture was left in the professional hands of Arrabito Naval Architects.

This mega yacht is stylish whatever angle you look at it. Its clean cut exterior combines perfectly two different, but in this case, complementary aesthetics; elegance and sportiness are what define this super yacht. These sporty details are inspired in a military style, for example the front windshields inclined 45 degrees backwards, which gives a strong look to the ship. Another distinctive element of its exterior design is its well proportioned volume, a central concern of Enrico Gobbi so he can deliver spacious inside and outside areas despite the fact that its superstructure isn't massive. Still he was able to give the illusion of enlargement thanks to the long, continuous windows and managed to design a megayacht with three decks and a fly deck. These numerous areas are rare in a yacht of this category, but still they were able to pull it off, maintaining a sleek, elegant exterior, and not messing with its aesthetic or practicality.
