London-based design studio Squared MK has recently revealed their latest superyacht concept to SYT. Named NYX, the project measures 75-metres, and as the designers tell us, is heavily focused on aesthetics and proportions with the intention to create a unique superyacht that instantly attracts attention wherever she is.&nbsp;<img src="/uploads/store/photo/13772/image/large-b9389a951c6944641a89de2f5e87b046.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/13772"> On board, she will accommodate up to 14 guests as well as a crew of 20. The owner’s accommodation is particularly notable, comprised of a private deck with balcony, Jacuzzi, folding terrace and bar. The VIP suite will also feature a folding terrace.&nbsp;Other features on board include a spa with a magical underwater view, as well plenty of exterior space for making the most of the superyacht lifestyle. An area guaranteed to be a favourite of both guest and owner is bound to be the forward deck area featuring a large enclosed swimming pool.&nbsp;<img src="/uploads/store/photo/13771/image/large-42e6a732634946d575eb50314acb96e4.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/13771"> Speaking of the concept, Squared MK explains: “This concept is inspired by the world’s leading shipyards and naval architects who have delivered until now not just yachts, but dreams. Our work is to make sure our clients fulfil their dreams and also to create beautiful architectures, capable of transmitting emotions and performance. Taste and beauty are surely personal, but our aim is to identify the codes and meanings that transform simple objects into iconic and timeless creations.”<img src="/uploads/store/photo/13777/image/large-7c19babadc8985a6f7df84752f26dcb3.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/13777"> In addition to a wealth of facilities on board, NYX will also accommodate a 12-metre performance powerboat, a 9.5-metre tender, two 3.85-metre tenders, four jet skis and a two-person submarine explorer. Performance wise, she will be powered by twin MTU engines providing her with a top speed of 20 knots and a cruising speed of 16 knots.&nbsp;

<a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/1749" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Archipelago Yachts (Company)">Archipelago Yachts</a> has uncovered the details of the latest addition to their range: a 24-metre explorer yacht by the name of Archipelago 80.Characterised by a sleek simplicity, sophisticated interiors, and a notably shallow one-metre draft optimal for coastal and reef exploration, this new vessel is a product of the company’s “commitment to delivering exceptional experiences on the water”, explained Founder of <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/1749" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Archipelago Yachts (Company)">Archipelago</a>, Dr Stephen Weatherley. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/311326/image/large-34800d336a213918bb0e5df2ce627e59.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/311326">Inside the yacht’s detail-oriented, high-quality interiors, which are flexible depending on the requests of her future owner, the Archipelago 80 is capable of hosting as many as 12 guests onboard, making her ideal for a trip with friends and family. A lavish, open-plan saloon with a bar and day galley are found inside, serving as a central social hub for those onboard to relax, chat, and take in picturesque panoramic views.&nbsp;When it comes to her accommodation, Archipelago 80’s staterooms are customisable, and their layout is contingent on her owner’s wishes, while the wheelhouse can be used as an adaptable entertainment space, featuring a bar and seating arrangement on its shaded balcony. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/311329/image/large-da1a7330b6004536c5d68ed4995d7726.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/311329">A standout aspect of Archipelago 80 is the presence of a vast working area, complete with tie-down points, found on her cockpit that can either be used to safely store expedition gear or superyacht toys. However, if desired, the cockpit space can also be dedicated to leisurely activities including sunbathing, lounging, game fishing, or alfresco dining. Furthermore, high bulwarks surround the sides of the cockpit area so that guests and crew alike are held to a high standard of safety throughout navigation. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/311327/image/large-e64f0d1d72bc8223e7212ac272490f97.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/311327">In terms of the yacht’s bow, there is an optional davit-style crane for easily transporting RIBs, Jet Skis, or other equipment, in and out of the water. Additionally, Archipelago 80 presents the choice of integrating a Jacuzzi into its structure, as well as the option to deploy a paravane kite for lower fuel consumption.&nbsp;Further environmentally friendly elements of the design are made possible through the yacht’s spacious roof area, which has the potential to accommodate solar panels, or alternatively, provide extra storage space facilitated by the knuckle boom crane.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/311325/image/large-74c66319b79eb899650862b5db012546.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/311325">Performance-wise, Archipelago 80, which has a beam of 11-metres, is able to reach a top speed of 28 knots.&nbsp;“The vessel was designed for a visionary owner who shares our passion for pushing the boundaries of boating. I am very excited to see this project come to life and welcome the customer onboard for some unforgettable journeys at sea,” Dr Stephen Weatherley added. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/311328/image/large-d1e58939e3e100d5e01496209a0d2768.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/311328">

Moreover, this well-lit saloon includes openings with expansive views that reinforce guests’ connection to the soothing nearby seascape.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/308433/image/large-1ed422268587da31503d52b8923d7b48.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/308433"><img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/308431/image/large-0d8b63f847c40c08c2bbe90ed6bba370.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/308431">Another standout feature found onboard Orion XPLR 38 yacht &nbsp;is her alluring sky lounge stocked with state-of-the-art technology for piloting sky or water-based drones, making fond memories with friends and family, or unwinding after an action-packed day. Depending on the owner’s customisation, a cosy Jacuzzi may also be added to this space for optimal luxury.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/308410/image/large-d033184e4c63f40e4858f6d36e5d9d64.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/308410"> <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/308418/image/large-2ac4b503956ebafa0dbad2b3aef9ab9d.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/308418">Meanwhile, on the yacht’s sundeck, activities ranging from relaxation, festivities, or formal events can be had, thanks to the flexible bar and exterior kitchen space for guests to take in views with a cocktail or alfresco dining cuisine in hand. A lavish pool located forward, which is flanked by sofas for topping up on one’s tan, also allows for blissful, uninterrupted views.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/308427/image/large-432eaedca74b823471f082dcae1d46aa.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/308427"><img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/308412/image/large-387afacd34113c26be70fa1bc35fa45b.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/308412">According to <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/7647" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="PH Design (Company)">PH Design</a>, environmental consciousness was also a priority in the process of designing Orion XPLR 38.

Orion XPLR 38: The 38m yacht concept designed for “the adventurer in a tuxedo”

Dutch design studio <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/15" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Vripack (Company)">Vripack</a> has disclosed the details of their latest superyacht concept: a 60-metre explorer yacht, Project Supernova based on the extension and upgrade of the 54-metre sister ship of the <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/2775" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Cosmo Explorer (Company)">Cosmo Explorer</a> yacht <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/4024" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="I Nova49.75m (163'3&quot;)Cosmo Explorer2013">I Nova</a>.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/308392/image/large-dac81ccd0c165f39e3c8f6121288fbdf.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/308392">Considering the <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/15" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Vripack (Company)">Vripack</a> team assisted with the 50-metre <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/4024" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="I Nova49.75m (163'3&quot;)Cosmo Explorer2013">I Nova</a> yacht, it is no surprise that their skillset was utilised a second time for the revamping of the second I Nova (Supernova 60) hull’s exterior and interior design.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/308386/image/large-b7f28eda3aeacd716ea306dcd506fc43.png" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/308386">Tailor-made to suit an intrepid owner, the bespoke yacht needs to meet the demands of a client who “is always on the move and wants a yacht that can keep up,” <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/15" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Vripack (Company)">Vripack</a>’s co-creative director Marnix Hoekstra explained. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/308395/image/large-7de7f4ccc36700180ecd0dcb9b918491.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/308395">One of the most important additions to Project Supernova is her spacious beach club located on the lower deck aft, where fold-down platforms on either side provide hammocks while at anchor. Continuity from the beach club to the main deck aft is possible thanks to the clever inclusion of stepped access. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/308391/image/large-438ea0196d5a51235851c4dc12cb75f8.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/308391">To fulfil the needs of her adventurous owner, Supernova features a fully-stocked dive centre, as well as an expansive helipad on the bridge deck aft complete with an integrated crane for transporting a large submersible or tenders. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/308382/image/large-30f9120fbb35c426e58ed4cb76f6966f.png" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/308382">In order to further accommodate an active lifestyle, <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/15" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Vripack (Company)">Vripack</a> chose to leave plenty of room for two 12-metre containers to store expedition gear such as bicycles and cars, that can be used for island outings.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/308389/image/large-a1ad14ed6db361163cccfa46d0410d40.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/308389">Regarding her interior blueprint, the brief of “a contemporary take on classic America” was demonstrated through the presence of brooding dark wooden panelling, and a colour palette defined by greys, blues, and browns.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/308394/image/large-bb6aa0ae756546b73446c2830fdfac60.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/308394">Furthermore, luxurious bronze plating, invitingly soft leathers, oak furniture, stark architectural lines, and a playful use of texture throughout results in a simultaneously homey and “masculine feel”, as requested by the owner.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/308398/image/large-aafb6d3d068b34cef93c7eb236f8a54c.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/308398">In addition, the owner wanted to feel as though he was “in touch with the sky, water and nature,” Hoekstra commented.This vision is reflected in the combination of colour and metal inserts with juxtaposition of light and dark materials. One of the most standout features is found in the plush main salon, where a hammered rock centrepiece beside the bar is paired with an extravagant calf skin bar topping.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/308393/image/large-89f9f1fef6141d07e628ca4679e52196.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/308393">Not only that, but the “man cave” ambiance is further augmented by the addition of a cigar lounge forward, along with a private office so that the owner can work while on the go.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/308399/image/large-fcd7c19e453c9f61777f4e5eec665290.png" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/308399">By steering almost entirely clear of doors, <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/15" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Vripack (Company)">Vripack</a> achieves an open-plan configuration resembling that of a loft apartment, so guests can thrive in a state of roomy, unrestricted comfort.&nbsp;The same “infinite feeling” is also emphasised by the double glass walkway on both sides of the vessel forward which means that those lounging in the main saloon are always able to take in stunning sea views.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/308397/image/large-8f70689c690018ac75b65615816cf2b7.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/308397">In terms of her accommodation, there is a full-beam VIP situated on the main deck, and four guest staterooms on the lower deck, in which ensuite bathrooms boast marbling and sleek metal taps. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/308396/image/large-50777f1facf27315a628d402ba4a1684.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/308396">Guest socialising and entertainment can be hosted in a second dining room found on the bridge deck. Meanwhile, on the level above, an oval-shaped master suite allows private access to forward and aft decks, as well as an exterior fire pit, for an optimal sense of opulent privacy.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/308388/image/large-cd8051d2efb7dc7e590f9c0a736be0cb.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/308388">When it comes to outdoor living areas, Supernova’s sundeck contains a Jacuzzi, bar, prime sunbathing spots, and an extensive panorama of views. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/308390/image/large-a8f67171fa2e6652f6d4c887ccfdadd5.png" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/308390">

This advanced design and planning allows for the concept to begin building immediately.&nbsp;The XP75 yacht is characterised by a rugged and masculine exterior design, with gently inclined windows. <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/153" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Nauta Yachts S.r.l. (Company)">Nauta Design</a>’s trademark design shines through, with clean and refined exterior lines, and chamfered edges.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/308124/image/large-d993bd43681ad201eb5b32f04693b6d3.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/308124">Her Z-shaped fashion plates have been placed exactly amidships to maintain the between her fore and aft, while her upper deck gives the illusion of floating. Her dark-painted bridge and sundeck also have a reduced height to create a low and sleek profile on the water.“A key word when we were designing the XP75 was flexibility,” explained <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/153" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Nauta Yachts S.r.l.

She features special double glazing, which reduces heat transfer and her engine cooling water is recycled.&nbsp;The main saloon of the XP75 yacht features floor-to-ceiling windows, which illuminate the room and highlight her three metre ceiling. However, the centre-piece of the room is her aquarium, which provides an eye-catching display for guests. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/308126/image/large-2fc572551302d4c2d43920bcfec2f4af.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/308126">The XP75 yacht can comfortably accommodate up to 12 guests, as well as a crew of 24, with five guest staterooms on her main deck forward. Her foremost VIP suite can also be divided by sliding panels to create an extra ensuite stateroom. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/308123/image/large-8e7ec49fcc0ef75e57f55ba87d12393e.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/308123">The upper deck of the XP75 yacht is dedicated to the owner and features a forward-facing stateroom with an island bed.

Her beach club includes a sauna, beauty salon and hammam and sunken bar underneath the pool on the main deck, while three fold-down platforms increase the space to 185 square-metres. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/308125/image/large-0a269d78ebc2dd45cc3ef4273d3055af.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/308125">Her main deck includes a pool with a base that can be raised, so the 273-square-metre aft deck also doubles as a helipad. Further forward and protected by a sunroof that slides out of the deckhead, is a sunken seating area, bar, DJ console and open-air cinema.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/308128/image/large-93233cd40a37a6e98f29fbfab5c491c1.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/308128">A key feature of the XP75 yacht is her skylounge on the upper deck aft, which features a projector for use as a cinema room. Her foredeck also doubles as a touch-and-go helipad when the yacht is at anchor, thanks to a telescopic mast and covered mooring deck. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/308122/image/large-abcc8040ddf16a42da0a069d88d2dab5.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/308122">The wheelhouse on the bridge deck is designed for maximum visibility in ice conditions with a walk-around integrated <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/6426" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Kongsberg Maritime (Company)">Kongsberg</a> console and a Portuguese bridge.
