The first hull from a brand-new model line, Spritz 116, is due for delivery May 2023. <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/5252" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Alpha Custom Yachts (Company)">Alpha Custom Yachts</a> is handling her construction and has teamed up with the powerhouse duo, <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/4478" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Cassetta Yacht Designers (Company)">Giorgio Cassetta</a> and <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/357" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Laurent Giles Superyacht Architects (Company)">Laurent Giles</a>, on the design of this 35.3-metre motor yacht. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/227506/image/large-1e4f0b556df4938bd090ca1a3b1ad618.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/227506">Spritz 116 is being built on speculation in Turkey at <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/5252" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Alpha Custom Yachts (Company)">Alpha Custom Yachts</a>’ facility, and is the latest iteration of the award-winning Spritz series. Intersecting her 35.5-metre length is an 8.4-metre beam, providing guests with an abundance of space both inside and out on her deck.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/227507/image/large-4ee563115c03c28e3fd9b2f727111f7f.jpeg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/227507"><img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/227509/image/large-2b69f12e35536a4c3ed901233a7adc62.jpeg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/227509">Catering for the alfresco inclined, the Spritz 116 has an oversized sundeck that’s laden with two dining tables and a number of lounging arrangements – making the space appropriate for any occasion. Aft is a tri-tiered deck area that cascades to the water’s edge. The main deck area is home to another large dining table, which can seat up to 12 guests, and mirrored L-shaped settees, that lend the space a casual air. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/227508/image/large-627b13df4adffa4ec1545a913f52acbe.jpeg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/227508">The second tier of the aft deck is the ideal bathing ground; it features a run of sun loungers and a 2,000-litre plunge pool. The space is multifunctional and the pool can be covered with teak, opening the area and making way for a dance floor if the occasion requires it. Another key feature of the aft section is that it’s hydraulically operated, adding further versatility, and large enough to accommodate a tender.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/227505/image/large-3b5fc2f4c0e63459eeb56323262c2f87.jpeg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/227505"><img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/227503/image/large-43690863eca97e59ddf23922132f83f4.jpeg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/227503"> <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/4478" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Cassetta Yacht Designers (Company)">Cassetta Yacht Designers</a> handled her styling both inside and out, and ensured that a connection to the surrounding environment was felt throughout the vessel. “The whole vision for the range was addressing the needs of people who own those boats, rather than those of the yard – to ignore compromises that are usually accepted to make yachts cost-effective and unnecessarily conservative in style and layout,” designer Giorgio Cassetta, previously commented.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/227502/image/large-0a74070f0736959636d4a1619ed0a0ac.jpeg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/227502">To realise this design, <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/4478" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Cassetta Yacht Designers (Company)">Cassetta Yacht Designers</a> made great use of glass, wrapping the bulk of the superstructure with heavy-set dark windows. Aesthetically, the design is striking and it marries well with the deep recesses in the midsection of the hull design – she’s strictly modern and incredibly charismatic. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/227499/image/large-a20e94fdf5783f0eeb302b435d04eae8.jpeg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/227499"><img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/227497/image/large-95fe17edb83fd2e35f054de9af4781a9.jpeg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/227497">Customisation plays a key role in the DNA of the Spritz 116 and the 240 GT of volume is waiting to be curated by her new owner. For that reason her carry capacity – guest and crew accommodation – is currently undetermined. Even so the design team has been busy drawing up her interior plans and sought to find a strong balance; a soothing feng shui. Paola Aboumrad was the brains behind her detailing, and was the one entrusted to curate the fixtures and decorations of the Spritz 116.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/227498/image/large-4bb9cd5043ceda8a48c52d804dd1b72d.jpeg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/227498">&nbsp;“The brand new Spritz 116 is a spectacular motor yacht that stands out amongst its peers,” David Johnson, exclusive representative of <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/5252" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Alpha Custom Yachts (Company)">Alpha Custom Yachts</a> in North America, said. “This new-build has a boatload of awe-inspiring features; it’s hard to beat all the perks of this particular model.”

The wraps have been pulled off an extraordinary superyacht Scintilla, a 120-metre world voyager concept penned by the illustrious studios of <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/809" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Tillberg Design AB (Company)">Tillberg Design</a> of Sweden and <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/357" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Laurent Giles Superyacht Architects (Company)">Laurent Giles Naval Architects</a>. The Scintilla concept, as she’s been named, has been designed in collaboration with Dreamliner Yachting and <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/244" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="IYC (Company)">IYC</a> and is said to offer the ultimate world cruising experience.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/210015/image/large-daf024f2942bb29d87a817e1488502f9.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/210015">At 120-metres in length, the Scintilla concept can accommodate up to 36 guests and 44 crew members. She embodies the height of luxury with her crisp Scandinavian minimalist interior design. Her amenities are vast too. She is fitted with not one, but five generous lounge spaces, three dining areas and wide panoramic windows throughout. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/210014/image/large-5a551c55ed1d6f8941c5c8affa6d0452.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/210014">The Scintilla concept has 18 cavernous guest suites on both the pool deck and helideck. Her crowning stateroom – the master suite – is multi-leveled and comprises the aft portion of the bridge and heli decks. It also features a private Jacuzzi and infinity pool. Scintilla also features six duplex guest suites. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/210011/image/large-790d39caa82b725e7e2e6d49d50cddee.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/210011"><img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/210012/image/large-7abbcb87f8501db472281329fcb1fb1b.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/210012">Her exterior echoes this charm, and is characterised by a sleek and well-balanced exterior profile. She is a five decked explorer queen and flaunts modern dynamic lines which embody her commitment to performance, elegance and sustainability. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/210013/image/large-833dcdfd3725bca9a6b6d000372b14ce.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/210013">She has heaps of spaces for a serious lineup of toys and tenders. She can accommodate a seaplane, submarine, foldable catamaran, expedition RIBS, amphibious and land vehicles, jet skis, quads and a helicopter. As the design team is committed to driving sustainability, each tender has been selectively chosen for their reduced emissions.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/210009/image/large-05f3a59dcbd3c16c97a7565784206f5f.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/210009">The Scintilla concept herself is striving to be green and is planned to incorporate locally-sourced and eco-conscious materials throughout all interior and exterior spaces. Her naval architect, Laurent Giles, has designed her in a way to incorporate hybrid propulsion technologies and to reduce the yacht’s environmental footprint. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/210010/image/large-1e80d1dca6d48df365745b2789bca003.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/210010">“With this concept, we have anticipated the demands of future yacht owners, who will appreciate having a means to explore the world’s oceans responsibly within luxurious accommodations,” says <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/809" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Tillberg Design AB (Company)">TDoS</a> partner and Yacht Director Daniel Nerhagen. “Our aim for the exterior was to create a modern and sporty look, and also incorporate classic lines that will stand the test of time. Scintilla is indeed a world traveler for all locations.”

The first shots of the futuristic WHY200 have been released

In a greatly anticipated world debut, the legendary Monegasque superyacht company <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/166" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Wally (Company)">Wally</a>, is set to premiere the first 27.03-metre <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/10920" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Wally WHY200/0127.05m (88'9&quot;)Wally2021">WHY200</a>, at the <a href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Cannes Yachting Festival - 2021">Cannes Yachting Festival</a> in September. This innovative motor yacht has turned the traditional design concept for yachts in this size category on its head, providing as much as 50% more living space, without compromising on speed. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/184161/image/large-35b165e6d1287d427fd7e9d78c3495b2.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/184161">The <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/10920" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Wally WHY200/0127.05m (88'9&quot;)Wally2021">WHY200</a> features ground breaking naval architecture from <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/357" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Laurent Giles Superyacht Architects (Company)">Laurent Giles NA Ltd</a> and <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/166" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Wally (Company)">Wally</a> design team led by Luca Bassani, jointly with the <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/4876" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Ferretti Group (Company)">Ferretti Group</a> Engineering Department has packed this 200 GT motor yacht with some of the best innovations usually reserved for yachts with a much larger volume. This has been achieved by widening the beam of the yacht, generating more than 200 square-metres of indoor living space, as well as 144 square-metres of exterior desks.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/199415/image/large-8f87ffde0ed0ffedf5185e1c4a82f1b8.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/199415">These expansive exterior decks include a dynamic beach club which expands in both width and length through the use of hydraulic platforms, opening the stern directly up to the water on three sides. This is the perfect platform for guests to enjoy everything the yacht has to offer, whether it is relaxing by the water with a book in hand, or playing in the sea with some of her toys. A crane to the starboard side fits neatly under the overhang and lifts out the tender, revealing the hidden storage for an array of tenders and toys. Once launched, the space opens up for socialising, lounging and entertaining and guests have direct access to this aft deck from the staterooms on the lower deck.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/184159/image/large-b896f988dc2e08a51bb239a803a4bcb1.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/184159"><img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/184160/image/large-ebc850f7ae45d65531f7da0ead0a2a51.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/184160">From the beach club, stairs lead up to the main deck aft, which opens up into a wide teak floored, semi-al fresco dining space featuring spectacular sea views to the stern and leading through to the beautifully appointed saloon and interior dining room.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/199418/image/large-e2f3738b84eded949ff79500d170887c.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/199418">The upper deck offers an incomparable ocean view to the stern, with sun loungers to aft, dining to port and a bar to starboard, with the wheelhouse to the fore. Undoubtedly one of the top design features of this yacht, the upper deck with its glass and carbon dome is the perfect location for spending evenings with friends and family, relaxing under the stars with a cold glass of wine. Adding to the standout aesthetic of this deck is the extension to aft which is unsupported from below, lending the yacht the characteristic angular <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/166" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Wally (Company)">Wally</a> look, reminiscent of the clean lines of the world-famous <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/166" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Wally (Company)">Wally</a>power.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/184163/image/large-801c0a0eaa26473507c434faeccf60c5.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/184163">Internally, the motor yacht features four staterooms for the accommodation of as many as eight guests, with the full-beam, 37 square-metre owner’s suite situated in the bow of the main deck. This space is undoubtedly one of the standout features of the yacht, with wrap-around windows, the owner has unparalleled, 270 degree sea views from the stateroom. Not only is this space exceptionally designed, but the location in the bow guarantees limited noise levels from the engine room at the stern, ensuring comfort and restful nights for her guests. To the aft of the suite is a generous en suite with twin bathrooms and walk-in wardrobe, which is surprisingly expansive due to the increased beam of the vessel, elevating the onboard experience to a new level.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/199419/image/large-db8ebaf9225c77c39598cfaea9b85508.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/199419">Luca Bassani, <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/166" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Wally (Company)">Wally</a> Founder and Chief Designer commented, “Providing owners with an elevated experience on board has always been central to our mission. We have had a longstanding vision to create a wrap-around main deck in glass that would provide so many lifestyle benefits to the owner and now finally the technology has made this possible, unlocking extra interior volume on this deck. It has allowed us to create a sensational and unprecedented 37 square-meter owner’s suite at the bow, which takes the on board experience to a whole new level. Imagine the feeling of waking up to uninterrupted 200-degree views through vast windows in the bow, as if you are floating above the water. It is a genuine marvel to behold, we are especially proud of what has been achieved with this revolutionary layout.”<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/184165/image/large-ad06f3920df55c86b34883226a2ec5ff.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/184165"><a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/10920" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Wally WHY200/0127.05m (88'9&quot;)Wally2021">WHY200</a> offers a true home on the water, exploiting the wrap-around windows in the main deck with the use of neutral, sandy tones and artful lighting which further expand the space.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/199416/image/large-e4655442d8845420061d1585be2c3a38.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/199416">One of the most unique design innovations is the one-piece laminated carbon staircase, a super light element that connects the three decks and opens up the 61 square-metre main deck living area. This space is punctuated by the open plan cooking area, a central element of life onboard this superyacht.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/184164/image/large-bd2c6ed62933b1677eb068fd7b57fedf.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/184164">Not only does the exterior and interior design of the WHY200 pack a punch, but her performance projects her above her competitors. The motor yacht’s hull has been optimised through rigorous testing for both full displacement and semi displacement cruising and despite her beam she is a quick and comfortable vessel on the water. Fin and gyroscopic stabilisers also guarantee comfort even when at anchor.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/199413/image/large-c2fd4733c1990453a6b49a62b5d82a8f.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/199413">Aesthetically, this sporting motor yacht brings all of <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/166" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Wally (Company)">Wally</a>’s famous features to the fore.
