Superyachts in Miami

Seen here in Miami just a few days ago are the superyachts Lady Sura (right) and 11-11 (centre) moored in the HMY at Miami Beach Marina. Lady Sura was delivered by Trinity Yachts in December 2012developed in-house by the American shipyard with an interior by Patrick Knowles Yacht Design. She features a lavish two-level master suite forward on main deck with another four guest cabins below deck.

The 63m custom superyacht 11-11 was delivered last year by Benetti to a complete in-house design by the Benetti team. On board she accommodates up to 12 guests as well as a crew of 15. A unique characteristic of her layout sees two owner suites; a full beam cabin on the main deck, as well as a second on the upper deck. The four en suite guest rooms are all located on the lower deck. Her unique bow shape makes her one of the most recognizable Benetti’s on the water today.

Sticking out on the far left of the image is the stern of the 61 metre Feadship superyacht Mylin IV, built in 1992.

Delivered in 2025, this <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/570" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Admiral (Company)">Admiral</a> superyacht entered the Mediterranean charter market in her year of delivery, and was a real attention grabber at this year’s <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Event/335" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="MYBA Charter Show - 2026">MYBA Charter Show</a> in Sanremo in late April, where I had the pleasure of stepping onboard, as well as enjoying a delicious al fresco lunch.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/389456/image/large-ef112c4eac27f4e46d7e61bec27f7c1f.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/389456">Designed for community funWhat immediately stands out about <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/11832" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Raja²55.3m (181'5&quot;)Admiral2025">Raja2</a> is that she’s designed for bringing guests together. Stepping onboard, the beach club immediately stands out, with deck space large enough to lounge around, set up the water toys and dip your toes in the water, creating an easy connection to the sea. The upper foredeck mirrors the spacious and inviting feeling of the beach club, but this area comes with a touch-and-go helipad which also serves as an ideal dancefloor or sunbathing area. Another great spot for guests to come together is the upper deck aft, where guests can enjoy more sunbathing on the sun lounger sofa, or enjoy fine dining around the circular table featuring a lazy susan.&nbsp;The sundeck is an ideal space for guests who like to stay active whilst onboard. Featuring a swimming pool and sunbeds, the space can be transformed into an open-air gym with fabulous views. For those who prefer running on a treadmill, you’ll have to chase the Mediterranean blue from the indoor gym with sliding doors down by the beach club. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/395115/image/large-7c2e7570eb2f26bf98747c93a79afb0d.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/395115"><a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/11832" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Raja²55.3m (181'5&quot;)Admiral2025">Raja2</a> has all the water toys that you’d expect of a 55-metre motor yacht, and provides multigenerational entertainment, whether snorkelling, wakeboarding or cruising around on a SeaBob. For those who love to explore the underwater world, <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/11832" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Raja²55.3m (181'5&quot;)Admiral2025">Raja2</a> includes proper diving gear, and for those who like to go fast, there are jetskis, waterskis and a jetsurf onboard.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/395117/image/large-3cc1cbee5eb70b3c6f6228550b692d96.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/395117">A look insideAnother stand-out feature of <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/11832" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Raja²55.3m (181'5&quot;)Admiral2025">Raja2</a> is her interior design. A unique colour scheme, including shades of black, white, purple and orange, decorates the saloon, located on the main deck. Broad glazing draws natural light deep into the room and reinforces a constant visual connection with the water. A curved deep-toned sofa forms the focal point of the space, softening the room’s otherwise linear framework and introducing a more sculptural note. Low tables, accent chairs and generous floor space create a setting that feels informal yet considered, allowing the saloon to function equally well for socialising and quieter moments onboard.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/389462/image/large-a128cc23ddffcb1837a854b198ebc2a5.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/389462">From here, the interior moves into the dining area, where the mood becomes more dramatic. A circular dining table sits beneath a large tiered chandelier, while an oval ceiling opening above adds height and a more pronounced architectural focal point. The dining area remains visually linked to the exterior, maintaining the spatial openness established in the saloon.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/395116/image/large-69a525a1d341aefae2f4b27821ebc617.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/395116">Able to accommodate 12 guests across six staterooms, the owner’s suite stretches full-beam and is located on the main deck. The bed forms the centre of the composition and looks out over large windows, which bring natural light into the space. A compact desk and seating area adds a practical layer, reinforcing the stateroom’s role as both private retreat and everyday living space. Decorated in pale upholstery, dark flooring and stone-effect finishes, the owner’s suite established a restrained palette, while mirrored ceiling panels heighten the sense of light and volume.The guest accommodation is located on the lower deck, and includes a VIP stateroom, two doubles and two twins; a sleeping arrangement that is well suited to cater to a broad range of charter groups, including families, friends, and multigenerational groups.

When settling down for an al fresco lunch on the upper deck aft, guests get a waft of whatever deliciousness is being cooked up in the kitchen. During <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Event/335" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="MYBA Charter Show - 2026">MYBA</a>, the chef treated the guests to a lunch that included homemade truffle potato chips, which rotated around the lazy susan in the centre, as well as a floral butter with fresh bread, before moving on to the four-course meal.&nbsp;Not only was the multi-course meal delicious, including a phenomenal steak accompanied by potato purée, and an incredible three-layer chocolate cake for dessert, including the <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/11832" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Raja²55.3m (181'5&quot;)Admiral2025">Raja2</a> logo imprinted on a slab of chocolate. The tablescaping, too, was beautifully designed, including a large mixture of florals in the decorations, alluding to the city of Sanremo, which is known as the ‘City of Flowers’.Whether indulging in the chef’s creations, lounging on the beach club, or floating in the sundeck pool, time onboard <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/11832" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Raja²55.3m (181'5&quot;)Admiral2025">Raja2</a> is time well spent. <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/11832" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Raja²55.3m (181'5&quot;)Admiral2025">Raja2</a> is for charter with <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/244" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="IYC (Company)">IYC</a>.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/389455/image/large-432def60a3b8cec921991d12615b1732.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/389455">

The goal is to create a boat that is capable of bluewater, easy to manage, with a generous interior volume, all while offering high sailing performance.A semi-fixed bimini has been added into the design to provide protection from the weather while also assisting with mainsail handling during stowage. The yacht will also feature a lifting keel configuration, which allows for good performance when sailing offshore and makes it easier to access shallower bays and anchorages.Autonomy was a key pillar of the design process. The yacht is equipped with a substantial battery bank aiming to support extended periods of silent operation at anchor, allowing owners to enjoy the serenity of long-distance cruising without the hum of machinery.The Baltic 78 Custom has an overall beam of 6.27-metres, a draught ranging from 2.8 to 4.15-metres, and a light displacement of 42 tonnes.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/394408/image/large-464bd2ae0ad469a50c322fb36b4c7fa7.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/394408">The yacht joins a growing construction portfolio at <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/327" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Baltic Yachts (Company)">Baltic Yachts</a>, which recently launched the 37-metre <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/327" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Baltic Yachts (Company)">Baltic</a> 121 Custom from its Jakobstad facility.
