The young studio has worked on only a handful of yacht projects, but their background in industrial and residential design has given them an eye for detail and the renders of the Logica 183 reveal clean, balanced lines and some innovative design solutions. &nbsp; “Perhaps the standout feature of the Logica 183 is the private foredeck area,”&nbsp;says Alessio Benassini, one of <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/5224" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Acube Design (Company)">Acube’</a>s trio of partners. “It’s basically a continuation of the owner’s suite on the forward main deck with a private hot tub and chill-out zone protected by the high bulwarks.” &nbsp;&nbsp;<img src="/uploads/store/photo/60005/image/large-a808e4d04b6c221f3c3106cb89253474.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/60005">There is a second much larger pool on the forward upper deck, and the sundeck can be completely enclosed by wrap-round glazing as the owner wishes to use the yacht during the off-season. The interior style and choice of materials have yet be finalised and the interior renders published here are conceptual.&nbsp;<img src="/uploads/store/photo/59998/image/large-81dd973facad6ddb67bcee4b71abdeac.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/59998">“Rather than take an empty space and fill it with off-the-shelf designer labels like some other Italian yards do, we want all the loose furniture and fittings to be custom designed,”&nbsp;says Bennewitz. &nbsp;The guest tender in stowed in a side-loading garage between the beach club and engine room. Unusually, the crew tender is housed in a compartment between the owner’s bathroom and the galley on the main deck. &nbsp;<img src="/uploads/store/photo/60001/image/large-f970acd80d76a3c4f8821c6256fd8c55.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/60001">The new project also reunites <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/4329" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Logica Yachts (Company)">Logica Yachts&nbsp;</a>and naval architect Pierluigi Ausonio of<a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/4331" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="P.L.A.N.A.

But running at an economical 10 knots on just the central engine her range increases to 6,000nm.” &nbsp;With the steel hull blocks almost complete and construction of the aluminium superstructure due to start in February, the Logica 183 is expected to be launched in June 2020. The intention is that she will be the first in a mini-series. &nbsp;

Displaying a dark navy hull, she features naval architecture by P.L.A.N.A. Design and exterior designs by Luca Brenta &amp; Co while Mark Kemo Design is behind the design of her voluminous interior. The original owner of the vessel - a real estate and media tycoon based in Canada - is also the builder of the boat, who bought the Logica brand from the Benetti Sail Division when he realised halfway through the build that he, in fact, wanted full ownership of the project.

Brokerage Deal of the Week: 33m Wally B

Micheal Schmidt Yachtbau launched its new Y8 Brenta 80 SRD in June this year and the yacht has since been delivered to her owner and named Makai. Following her debut at the Cannes Yachting Festival this year, here we take a quick look on board.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/17187/image/large-7b49b7d343c5d93d3f4caa46af489dc3.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/17187">The Brenta 80 SRD (semi-raised deck) is a natural evolution from the 80 DC and is designed for family life on board, with no small amount of zest and oomph when it comes to performance. This unit in the semi-custom range was designed by Luca Brenta, Lorenzo Argento and the interior design team at Design Unlimited. Built from carbon and other lightweight materials on the interior, Makai is made for fast cruising but also very comfortable passages at sea.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/17186/image/large-82eb7c2be801409ff01ea6347701b379.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/17186">As the first unit was built for a family that will be mostly spending time on board without a skipper, it was crucial to have a yacht that was safe and easy to run without complexities. Push button controls, dual helm stations and a large, secure cockpit makes running operations a breeze.Inside, the raised saloon is lined with glass panels on the side and the top for the same bright and fresh experience as one will have out on deck. The interior of Makai is finished in a light oak, but Design Unlimited says clients can select from a wide variety of woods and decorative styles to suite their tastes.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/17189/image/large-b299c59f80c4e58170c3db844d5a4a18.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/17189"><img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/17188/image/large-a4a3b45e3663888ed2f0c33e3dd0c950.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/17188">The master suite is placed forward and comes with a free-standing bed, making moving about the cabin easier and safer. Elsewhere, two additional cabins are available for guests with a possible third in bunk bed arrangement also possible.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/17190/image/large-b7bcff4f6fac04e46626b10870355bd0.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/17190"><img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/17191/image/large-505375b7f64b6ab12fa01bf8a0e7a341.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/17191">Makai’s fixed keel draws 3.5 metres below the waterline and rises 35 metres above water with a single mast and recognisable black sails.

Brokerage deal of the Week: sailing yacht Wally B

Logica Yachts has introduced their latest steel and aluminium superyacht project, the 37 metre Logica 120. She features exterior design by Brenta Design, whilst P.L.A.N.A. undertook her naval architecture.<img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/153998/image/large-2ea9cd1fff4dad803794686f124cdb30.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/153998">On board she accommodates up to ten guests in total, with the luxurious owner’s suite located forward on the main deck. Throughout the vessel, there is a clear focus on enjoying the very best of both indoor and outdoor living, with large windows, open plan spaces and large exterior deck areas that also work to make her interiors bright and airy.<img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/153999/image/large-fc63565149e523027496a706c55d59d5.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/153999">The galley is also located on the main deck, allowing the crew of up to five to offer the best service to the guests. In the stern garage, a tender of 6.2 metres, a tender of 3.5 metres as well as two jet skis can be easily accommodated for.<img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/154000/image/large-e334b8b33892e529d5a950c691bdb91e.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/154000">The 120 is the smallest of the Logica Yachts range, but powered by twin MTU 10V 2000 M72 engines, she still has an impressive transoceanic range of 5,000 nm.

Logica introduces 37m superyacht concept

The 44.8 metre superyacht Logica 147-01 is the second delivery of the Logica Yachts line up. Though the contract for the yacht was initially signed with Benetti Sail Division in 2011, the project was passed to Logica Yachts and launched from the Italian shipyard’s Viareggio facility in May 2014. Displaying a dark navy hull, she features naval architecture by P.L.A.N.A. Design and exterior designs by Luca Brenta &amp; Co.<img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/152428/image/large-aeaac47240c6a23ca83d76ab3619b2a7.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/152428"><img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/152429/image/large-2e0ea053e36b486c19074246d5b6cbbb.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/152429"> <img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/152430/image/large-4402d140a389dd280f1f53fa0ccd3961.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/152430">The British designer, Martin Kemp Design, is responsible for her beautiful interiors. Interestingly, the owner - a real estate and media tycoon based in Canada - is also the builder of the boat, who bought the Logica brand from the Benetti Sail Division when he realised half way through the build that he in fact wanted full ownership of the project.<img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/152431/image/large-4deeaa20dfa11e7a50aabef17869f0d3.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/152431">One of her most notable characteristics is her huge internal volumes, especially for a yacht of this size. Throughout the vessel, a contemporary, sophisticated environment has been designed to the very last detail. The colour scheme is simple and clean in shades of ash greys, browns, golds and creams, and creates a very contemporary feel to the yacht. Her vast main deck saloon boasts a beautiful oak floor with stainless steel insets, and is surrounded by luxurious materials as well as mirror, glass, polished ebony and lacquer which have been utilised to emphasise her spaces. Plenty of plush seating awaits guests in this area, with cream sofas and armchairs lined on either side of the room. Large, patterned cushions lay on the furniture and bespoke, golden coloured coffee tables lay in the middle of the saloon, giving a chic edge to the ambiance of refinement.<img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/152432/image/large-81d7dcbd6fa9cefcb1e1ca98becdff9d.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/152432"><img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/152433/image/large-ba4b200f47c5a61975e5eb03ebaf9183.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/152433"> <img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/152434/image/large-7575a02ad42410c408020e407acb98bf.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/152434">The main dining area is also found in the main saloon, and features a large glass table encompassed by white leather and dark wood chairs for up to ten guests. Despite the beautiful furniture and exquisite decor throughout, one of the most eye-catching aspects of this area is the incredible, unique chandelier that hangs above the dining table. The whole area is surrounded by large windows, inundating the space with natural light and of course providing fantastic views for guests to enjoy whether relaxing on the sofa, entertaining over drinks or experiencing a taste of fine dining at the dining table.<img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/152435/image/large-25217c0e0113f937c10a02fc836914f1.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/152435">In regards to her accommodation, she sleeps up to 12 guests in total over a 6 cabin layout, including a luxurious master suite, one VIP cabin and four guest cabins.<img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/152436/image/large-6ce554df65eed5c97a356f1f0ba7cc57.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/152436"> <img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/152437/image/large-674663fcf72edbcdf789def548e39878.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/152437">The full beam master suite is located forward on the main deck, and, like many other living spaces on board Logica, boast vast spaces for her owner’s to enjoy. Including a commodious en-suite, marble bathroom as well as a private office space, extensive windows are located forward and along each beam, bathing the space with natural light.<img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/152438/image/large-1a410799db7f9df4ca694748e5b33ff9.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/152438">The VIP cabin is unusually located below in the stern, and although noise levels are, comparably, not quite as low as the other guest cabins located on the lower deck or in other rooms on board, it too exhibits commodious spaces for its guests and has the advantage of ease of access and proximity to the gym area and beach club on board. A crew of 9 are also accommodated on board Logica. Crew accommodation can be found on the lower deck located forward, as well as a large crew mess.<img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/152439/image/large-3ba3bc9edb1a529b02233f3856cedb23.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/152439"><img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/152440/image/large-1e19b75d0092c2803fca905623d8af16.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/152440"> <img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/152441/image/large-c387b9f2282179569ed0e05d44385b86.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/152441">Moving on to her extensive outside spaces, amongst her many exciting facilities and amenities on board is an impressive and unrivalled, extra large 5.5 metre swimming pool. The expansive pool is located in the forward of the main deck just ahead of the main owner’s cabin, and features a downstream swimming system, both fresh and seawater and a bespoke whirlpool.<img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/152442/image/large-6c9c56326c670f535ed55070bd9eba27.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/152442">Spectacular views are afforded guests as they relax in and around the pool, with large, comfortable sun loungers and uninterrupted views surrounding them.<img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/152443/image/large-1ca10a7308f122cfef75e13138a32000.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/152443"> <img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/152444/image/large-d21dbe248310c7e56a17bf057e1df67e.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/152444">Elsewhere, the upper deck aft features a large dining table for up to twelve guests. Partly shaded, a large bar is found directly adjacent. The area provides the ideal space to enjoy the best of al fresco dining whilst soaking in the fantastic weather, or entertaining at night at the bar. A cushioned corner seating area is also found in this area, giving guests an additional option to relax and unwind. The sundeck features a large space filled with sun loungers, offering uninterrupted views.<img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/152445/image/large-7ebdf236e19fd8c05dad845c0298b6d0.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/152445">Powered by 2 x MAN D2862 LE 463 medium duty diesel engines, she has a maximum speed of 16.9 knots, a cruising speed of 15 knots. Her large capacity tanks (71,000 litre fuel capacity, 17,000 litre water capacity) allow for lengthy passages, offering the owner the luxury of being able to choose from a vast expanse of cruising destinations and routes around the world. At an economical cruising speed of 10.5 knots, she has a range of over 6,500 nm. Moreover, her RINA green plus certification means that she will be allowed to stay at anchor in the most beautiful, pure and uncontaminated marine areas.By Gemma Fottles

Superyacht My Logica delivered

Today, Luca Brenta Design published this <a href="https://www.facebook.com/pages/Lucabrenta-B-Yachts" target="_top">facebook photo</a> of one of the seatrials of the Logica 147-01 superyacht, named My Logica. Designed by Luca Brenta, My Logica features an interior by Martin Kemp Design. <img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/149741/image/large-a788c9fe6b3fb6772c006ffb212c55ab.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/149741">The yacht was launched in May, an event attended by SYT's Maarten Janssen. On board My Logica, 12 guests can be comfortably accommodated, due to a layout of six cabins, including a master suite, three VIP and two guest cabins. A large 5,5 metre swimming pool is located in the forward of the main deck. By Maarten Janssen

New photo of seatrial of My Logica in Italy

On the 9th of May the Luca Brenta designed Wally 105 Nariida was launched at the waterfront facilities of Baltic Yachts in Jakobstad, after having spent 9 months undergoing a refit. Nariida was Baltics first refit project on a yacht they did not build themselves.<img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/149699/image/large-46a0e03dabc7c759dd1259fdf317d849.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/149699">The 32 metre Nariida was built in 1994, using high-tech methods and materials, very much ahead of her time. She has over her 20 years been used extensively, for both racing and cruising. With cosmetic wear and tear being unavoidable, renewal of surfaces was an important part of this refit project. This included the rig, hull paint and a new teak deck, as well as a major replacement of teak veneer in the interior.<img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/149700/image/large-b59e3e070bc231606bb3b8b5af0374f3.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/149700">On the technical side, the yard improved the production and storage of electricity, by installing a new generator and battery banks. This has lead to an increase of the yacht’s silent time, the period, during full cruising mode, where generators can be shut off.By Maarten Janssen
