Innholdsfortegnelse for July 2024 i Boat International US Edition

I took a side trip to a few yards this spring after the spectacular World Superyacht Awards weekend in Venice (see page 83). I love the juxtaposition of the glitz, glamor and gowns of the awards with the hard-hat, heavy-boot grittiness of the shipyards. And what I love even more is the reminder of why it is that people fortunate enough to climb onto that Awards stage deserve their time in the spotlight. Nothing reminds me of this quite as much as walking through a superyacht humming with dozens of tradespeople, when I can still see behind the bulkheads, climb over the threshold of the pump room and look around the engine room. Someone in the know recently equated a yacht to Swiss cheese to explain the engineering complexities involved…

ON BOARD WITH OWNERS’ CLUB If any movie director were available to make a biopic about Josh Golder, surely Golder himself would be the lead contender. The infectiously energetic 43-year-old is an avid YouTuber and credited documentarian, and is firmly at the helm of his own journey through life. He is also “ecstatic” to finally be aboard his new 153ft Dunya Yachts-built King Benji explorer boat, (she's an “11 out of 10”), and is already envisioning his next yacht-building adventure. “I'd like to build a 5,000 to 10,000GT explorer — 10 to 20 times the size of King Benji — with a 10,000-square-foot gym and similar-sized spa and dog park,” he says. “Some boats have come close — Andromeda and Ulysses — but we're talking about a level above. It's…

OWNERS’ CLUB I am Sicilian, born in Catania, and it was my mother who gave me this passion for the sea. When I was 18 years old, she gave me her 39ft boat because she was tired of boating alone, and said, “now you can take me around.” I joke that I got my boating license before my driver's license. I moved up — I got a Mira 38, an Alena 47 and an Alena 52. In 2005, after I divorced the mother of my only child, Michela, I focused on creating a charter business. The family business, Massimino, is in home construction; we built probably about 90 percent of the houses in Catania, so when I was thinking of a name for my boat business, I decided on Mikasa…

WINNER Each of the winning motor yachts from all of the WSA categories is considered for Motor Yacht of the Year. This year, it was the winner of the second-largest category — Displacement Motor Yachts, 1,000GT to 1499GT — that the judges deemed most worthy, proving “biggest isn't always best,” as one judge put it. The 216ft Rossinavi Alchemy stood out among the winners and took home the prestigious Motor Yacht of the Year trophy. Rossinavi and Philippe Briand of Vitruvius Yachts conceived the fully custom tri-deck. Her pièce de résistance, the judges noted, is the suspended glass staircase, a sculptural element that opens up the main salon and pushes boundaries of a typical general arrangement. The staircase is a work of art in its own right, with white marble…

The judges found a clear winner among this category's nominees in Seaflower, built by Dutch shipyard Mulder, calling her a “truly impressive boat.” They noted the high-quality build, the tasteful custom interior and overall excellent value she presents. Started on spec, Seaflower might be the sixth hull in the Mulder ThirtySix series, but she features multiple customizations for her experienced owners, including light oak joinery and forgoing the Jacuzzi on the sundeck in favor of generous entertaining space. Inside, Seaflower boasts standout living spaces, such as a well-thought-out galley and a full-beam owner's cabin with large windows. Seaflower is the first yacht in the range to be built to IMO Tier III emissions requirements. Additionally, she rides on a high-performance Fast Displacement Hull Form from Van Oossanen. She burns as…

This category proved a judging challenge as nominees ranged from worthy series yachts to out-and-out foiling racers. The winner, Baltic Yachts’ Zemi, was ayacht that could do a bit of everything, combining what the judges considered to be “stunning looks” with excellent sailing performance and eco-friendly attributes. Zemi sports classic yet aggressive lines with curved vertical glass, giving an architectural feel to the salon below. The interior is warm and comfortable, and there's also a functional, inclusive crew area. The experienced owners are passionate about creating a low-emission yacht and harnessing natural energy. She features hybrid diesel-electric propulsion, and hydrogeneration via the propeller underway, making her virtually self-sufficient when sailing at 12 knots. In addition, she has 1,300 square feet of solar panels, and a solar cloth cockpit awning is…

WINNER The standard of classic rebuilds was so high that the judges deemed these should be considered separately in a Classic Rebuilt Yachts category. While the judges noted that the quality of work on Moonbeam was “superb,” it was Cariad that won overall. This, in fact, marks the second complete rebuild of the boat, which had been left to rot multiple times. She was in a state of disrepair when her owner bought her. She was towed from her berth in Singapore to Phithak Shipyard and Services in Thailand, and brought back to life by a crew of mainly local shipwrights and carpenters. Only a small percentage of the original 19th-century vessel remains, yet the judges said that the project has been “tremendously faithful to her original design.” One original…

The Voyager's Award recognizes yachts that have recently completed a significant cruise. This year two yachts — Infinite Jest and Jester, her support vessel—share the prize. The pair ran in tandem from Europe to Antarctica mere months after each was delivered. Jester was launched in March 2023 after a refit at Pendennis, while Infinite Jest was delivered as a new-build out of Turquoise Yachts in July 2023. By December, both yachts left South America in their wake as they steamed across the infamous Drake Passage to the icy continent It was, as the judges said, an “ambitious maiden voyage.” Antarctica represents the pinnacle of voyage challenges. The weather is unpredictable and there are no hospitals, so vessels must be self-sufficient. Years of planning, surveys, shipyard modifications and procurement of specialist…

“I have never understood the ‘Lord Nelson’ approach to nautical design: yachts are ultra-technological – why all the tradition?” architect Piero Lissoni says. Sanlorenzo Yachts’ art director, Lissoni designed the interior of the second Sanlorenzo 57Steel, Virtuosity. “Likewise, I don't see why a yacht should be a compendium of all things associated with wealth — marbles, hides, exotic woods — because luxury and vulgarity often go hand in hand. Why do people who have beautiful homes then have such vulgar yachts? I think that this vulgarity more often than not comes from the shipyard architects who seem to think that wealthy owners want splashy materials. I don't agree with that.” So what does he think a yacht should be? A land-based architect by training, Lissoni feels strongly that a yacht…

Daniel Pembrey After studying history in college, Daniel became a director at Amazon and then a crime fiction novelist. For this issue, he interviews King Benji's owner, Josh Golder (page 56). What surprised you most in your interview with Josh Golder? I hadn't appreciated the potential versatility of an explorer yacht like Josh's. His team worked on the premise that there could be no chase boat; it had to be “everything you need; nothing you don't.” King Benji is a guestcentric engineering marvel If you could sit down to lunch with anyone, who would it be? Franklin D. Roosevelt. My next feature is about his “floating White House,” the USS Potomac. I'm learning how it was adapted to his physical limitations as someone who had suffered from polio.

BOAT LIFE ARLINGTON, LONDON BY ISSY VON SIMSON Probably no London restaurant opening has scored as many column inches in the UK press as Arlington. Everyone who'd ever been there when it was Le Caprice had preconceived ideas and stories harking back to the times of Princess Diana frequenting her favorite comer table, and of Elton John and Joan Collins holding court. After Le Caprice sold in 2000, its light faded a little and then Covid-19 extinguished it altogether. But now, thanks to the wondrous ever-revolving door of London's hospitality scene, one of the former owners, famed restaurateur Jeremy King once again finds himself at the helm of this legendary spot on Arlington Street. Although it is now called Arlington, it feels like nothing has changed other than the new…

JULY 11-14 HAMPTONS FINE ART FAIR, SOUTHAMPTON, LONG ISLAND This four-day, high-caliber annual art fair showcases the work of established artists and local talent. The work is on display at the purpose-built 70,000-square-foot Pollock and de Kooning pavillions, located near Southampton Village. July 11, opening day, offers VIP ticket-holders a first look at this year's exhibits. hamptonsfineartfair.com JUNE 29 MINUTY AT THE ROSEWOOD The South of France heads to London with a Côte d'Azur-inspired pop-up restaurant dubbed Villa Minuty taking residence at The Rosewood hotel until September.

WINNER Sailing Yacht of the Year is the title bestowed upon the yacht that the judges consider to be the most notable of the winners in the two sailingyacht categories. It is not a matter of choosing the yacht that won its class by the greatest margin — the judges are required to consider all the other elements that led to their being chosen as class winners. Both Zemi and Sarissa were built with performance sailing and environmental sensitivity in mind. Choosing a winner was no easy task. But it was Sarissa, with her groundbreaking propulsion system, state-of-the-art sails and rig and exquisite interior by Liaigre, that almost unanimously convinced the judges she deserved the honor. The high-performance sloop represents many firsts for her builder and the sailing superyacht fleet…

WINNER Sleek explorer yacht built by Hakvoort in the Netherlands, Milele won the judges’ approval thanks to her “incredible build quality” and surprising spaces on board. Most notable of these is the innovative foredeck garage, which stores a submarine and crane, and has a full entertainment suite with a large television screen built into its hatch. “You'd never expect to find a submarine in that space,” one of the judges said. The two-person submersible from U-Boat Worx was custom-designed for the owner to fit on board Milele. Lighter and more streamlined than previous models, this sub has now been made into a series by U-Boat Worx. Unusually, the design of Milele began with the naval architecture, with Van Oossanen Naval Architects called upon to create a fast, efficient and comfortable…

WINNER The first hull in Italian builder Baglietto's new T52 series proved a winner among the largest sub-5ooGT displacement yachts. The judges noted its expansive 1,450-square-foot sundeck, which they called “one of the best spaces on board.” They also appreciated the yacht's “unusual” aft deck design, with its beach club that spans three levels and a 12ft-long pool with a retractable floor that can extend the main aft deck area when not in use. The judges also recognized that the T52 is Baglietto's first yacht to have a hybrid propulsion system, which allows the captain to opt for the more efficient cruising mode to curb fuel consumption and reduce environmental impact. When cruising in electricdiesel mode, the T52 boasts a range of up to 7,600 nautical miles and has the…

WINNER There were judges who considered Sparta to be their top choice in the displacement motor yachts 1,000GT to 1,499GT category. One of them said it was the “best Heesen I've ever seen.” While Alchemy ultimately received the highest score, the judges wanted to make sure to recognize Sparta's exemplary fit and finish and overall excellence. Born from a collaboration between Heesen Yachts and Winch Design, Sparta is the largest steel yacht to emerge from the Dutch builder. She boasts what one judge called “extraordinary features,” including a DNA helix-inspired staircase, a 21ft infinity pool and the intimate lower deck spa. Also of note was the placement of all the guest cabins on the main deck, while the owners enjoy a fully private deck of their own. A reverse bow…

WINNER, Paola Trifirò There are few yacht owners who have displayed more passion, knowledge and interest in yachting over the years than Paola Trifirò. She fell in love with boats during her university days when she sailed on Lake Como, sparking a decades-long fascination with yachting that resulted in some of the most beautiful sailing yachts ever built. From her first yacht, 23ft Calife, to the Dubois-designed Kokomo that introduced Paola to superyacht racing, her yachts have been as varied as they are impressive. Some of the exceptional yachts that she and her husband, Salvatore, have built over the years include the head-turning Zefira, a 163ft Dubois design that won Sailing Yacht of the Year in 2011 for her lightness, elegance, speed and modernity, and 107ft Ribelle, whose sinuous lines…

On a Saturday morning in July 2019, Mamix Hoekstra arrived at the Yacht Club de he was there. Come and meet a group of people,” Dennis Frederiksen from Fraser had told the co-creative director at Dutch studio Vripack. “You won't regret it.” Frederiksen, a broker who has sold $1 billion of boats in his 40-year career, is a meeting worth taking for any supeiyacht designer, no matter how cryptic the brief. The group Hoekstra would see was Foundation Zero, a set of impact investors whose headline ambition was to create the world's first fossil-fuel-free superyacht; no combustion engine, no fuel tanks. But it would be as much about the journey to get there as the finished project – outside-the-box solutions, brave experiments, new (and expensive) testing, capacious data collection and…

COSTAS TSINGAS, PERE UBU AT KALESMA, MYKONOS Araklia in Iraklia, which is a tiny Cycladic Island between Naxos and los. The restaurant sits on a hill with incredible views across the sea to the neighboring islets.

FEADSHIP FEELS THE FORCE Project 821, the largest yacht yet floated in the Netherlands, features breakthrough technology and design for a cleaner future May the 4th saw the dawn of a new era at Feadship, when the massive shed doors slid open to reveal the first private yacht to feature hydrogen fuel cell technology and the yard's new flagship in terms of size. A detailed press release steered clear, naturally, of any identifying features that may reveal the owners’ or the yacht's name — the RWD-designed yacht is still known only as Project 821. The owners chose hydrogen as the cleanest alternative to conventional fuel (its only byproduct is water). While it can run the entire yacht's “hotel load” and allow emission-free navigation for short distances, there could not be…

Legendary designer Roberta Cavalli died on April 12, leaving behind an inimitable legacy in the fashion world. While his yacht designs weren't es well known, he had a passion for boats and many friends in the yacht world. Aquila Designed with Cavalli's friend Tommaso Spadolini, Aquila was known as RC at the time of her launch. An iridescent purple paint made the yacht instantly recognizable on the Riviera where she hosted numerous parties. Freedom Freedom, also designed with Spadolini, was meant as a private haven. Cavalli wanted the option to drive the boat himself, so his cabin is connected to the wheelhouse. Signature animal prints punctuated the interior. Thunder Although Cavalli's inimitable style and Visionnaire furniture are omnipresent inside this Oceanfast, Cavalli did not have a direct hand in its…

“Thank you for a delightful evening in such a historic and iconic home” MATTHEW VOORHEES…

Each year, owners, designers and builders gather from around the globe to attend the annual World Superyacht Awards. As they are overseen by an independent panel of judges, who visit yachts personally and scrutinize photos, videos and specs before debating each entrant, there is no higher accolade for a superyacht than winning a coveted Neptune. The ceremony itself is fittingly spectacular — this year's took place by special arrangement with the mayor of Venice at the Arsenale di Venezia, once the hub of Venetian shipbuilding, with welcome drinks at the Palazzo Pisani Moretta. Read on to discover which yachts triumphed this certainly won't be the last you hear of them…. IN ASSOCIATION WITH BOAT International Media would like to thank all the sponsors, partners and supporters, without whose help the…

WINNER This category held two nominees, both of which the judges saluted, but it was Infinite Jest that proved most popular. Conceived in collaboration between Turquoise Yachts, Sinot Yacht Architecture & Design, A Vallicelli & C Yacht Design and Fraser, the 246ft yacht had long-range travel as part of her brief. In fact, shortly after delivery she cruised down to Antarctica. The yacht's ambitious design brief pushed Turquoise to enhance its project management, meet a high level of specification and find new engineering solutions. Infinite Jest is slightly wider than her predecessor, Roe, yet the hull has been optimized after CFD analysis. She has a new bulb form and showcases a reduction in the resistance of appendages, which included redesigning rudder and shaft brackets. She also sports a few exterior…

Three sailing yachts, including one inventive catamaran and two monohulls built by Royal Huisman, were nominated in this category. The catamaran ArtExplorer was lauded for its intended use as a museum on the water, and both Royal Huismans were deemed “superb” by the judges — but Sarissa stood out for being “more exciting” and was described as an “astonishing boat.” Naval architect Malcolm McKeon Yacht Design was contacted to develop a performance sloop for experienced owners who were looking for a successor to their previous yacht by the same name. Sarissa had to be fast and fun to sail, and manual steering was a must so the power could be felt when manning the helm. With a focus on weight savings and corrosion prevention, carbon fiber was used for the…

WINNER All of the yachts considered for their exceptional refit were entered into the Refitted/Rebuilt Yachts category. Then it was up to the jury to review each entry before deciding whether the degree of work completed constitutes a refit or rebuild. For the entries deemed pure refits, there were six worthy nominees. The classic Lürssen Carinthia VII won out for her ambitious refit, taking the previously private yacht to commercial code in a mere 10 months, while still remaining sensitive to the original design. Meeting commercial code required many structural changes, such as adding watertight bulkheads amidships on the tank deck and lower deck. Meanwhile, charter-friendly attributes were introduced, such as a main-deck swimming pool and an enormous gym. The pool is a particular highlight at 36ft, with a glass…

Voyage INSPIRING YOUR NEXT ADVENTURE Bringing a taste of Mediterranean style to Downtown Dubai, The Lana, which opened in February, is the Dorchester Collection's debut in the Middle East.
