With an hour or so of practice, most people will already be whizzing around up on the foil, and it’s such a rush to ‘fly’ a foil for the first time. Guests really catch the bug when they do it, so we call it the ‘magic carpet ride’. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/187259/image/large-a729adbb450ff14b08e5950599e6abbe.jpeg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/187259">What are some of the most memorable experiences/trips guests have had with the toys?We were shooting a movie for our own enjoyment in The Bahamas and one of the guests thought it would be cool to jump out of the helicopter into the water next to the yacht while filming with the drone. All the other guests also thought that this sounded like fun and wanted in. It was such a logistical hurdle to work out how to do this without hurting anyone and without the drone and helicopter colliding!<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/95158/image/large-5a900b2f74c6e596bc816b4995ddac40.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/95158">How do you ensure that guests have the best possible experience with the toys you have?All of our deck crew are hired because they are already competent watermen and women. They are divers, sailors or surfers and they can be newbies to yachting but not to the ocean. Also, when they are on board, crew can use all of the toys in their lunch breaks or downtime. This means that our crew really know how to use the equipment, can teach it to guests and are genuinely excited about the water sports. We also have a good mix of genders on the deck team: female charter guests or children can be more comfortable with a female crew member in certain situations. &nbsp;<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/187252/image/large-e7c1c47516d88a032e060d6d6d17fac5.jpeg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/187252">From your experience as a captain, have you noticed any changes in what guests are looking for in their toys?There is a foil and electric revolution. If the watercraft isn’t foiling or electric, it’s old school. Whether it’s surfboards, kiteboards, SUPS or sailing dinghies… it’s all about foil now!<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/98589/image/large-babbbb01b511aec57a3b6206a2b488be.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/98589">Where have been some of your favourite places you’ve been to on board&nbsp;<a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/6018" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Bold85.0m (278'10&quot;)SilverYachts2019">Bold</a>&nbsp;and why?&nbsp;We really enjoyed the Exumas because of the incredible colour of the water and the beaches, and Sardinia because of the consistent wind for kiting and foiling.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/187251/image/large-c78275a857b4e064839c8a7be4f5ccf5.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/187251">What do you expect to see in terms of trends for the toys of the future?Everything will be electric. Petrol outboards and Jet Skis are on death row. As mentioned above, I would also bet that most of the toys and tenders of the future will be foiling if the design easily allows. It’s all about foil, foil, foil!This article first appeared in a recent issue of The SuperYacht Times newspaper.

Yacht toys and tenders: What's onboard the super-cool 85m Bold

Captain Todd Leech reveals the luxury tender and yacht toys that make Bold an unmissable yacht to charter.

Q&A: Captain Todd Leech talks toys on board 85m SilverYachts superyacht Bold

Synonymous with industry-challenging architecture and eye-catching designs, Australian shipyard <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/899" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="SilverYachts (Company)">SilverYachts</a> has created a name for itself since 2007 with the launch of its Silver Series of 70-metre, high-speed transoceanic superyachts that have put it squarely on the map as one of the most exclusive yacht builders in the world. Now, over a decade since its first creation, the Fremantle-based shipyard has stepped things up a gear with its most ambitious and complex project to date. Since her unveiling last summer, the 85-metre superyacht&nbsp;<a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/6018" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Bold85.0m (278'10&quot;)SilverYachts2019">Bold</a> has wowed crowds all over the world with her signature naval look and high-tech features and has covered over 20,000 nm within her first six months. We met with her owner and shipyard founder, Guido Krass, to find out more.<img src="/uploads/store/photo/113515/image/large-ec7bf541dd85e8428484467b8c5ccc84.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/113515">“I have always done my boats to my own personal taste, and not too much on the tastes of others because if that is how you approach it, you will always get it wrong.” This philosophy is important to understand as you begin to study and rationalise the style of Bold and all other yachts built by <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/899" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="SilverYachts (Company)">SilverYachts</a> for that matter. These machines are made to be different, and with a creative mind such as <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/82" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Espen Øino International (Company)">Espen Øino</a> as the designer, you better believe this is something unique.

A build classification that is rather common for some of the largest 100-metre plus vessels, cramming the complex PYC requirements into a slender 85-metre, 1,600 GT vessel is far easier said than done. “This was a six-year project in total with design and development alone lasting two years - but as you can see, it was definitely worth it in the end.”&nbsp;<img src="/uploads/store/photo/107540/image/large-ea202a80eb548c3fc355cf46f3fef82c.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/107540"><img src="/uploads/store/photo/107556/image/large-873525fd04ad931553fcfbc1719b364b.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/107556">So confident in the final product is Krass that he and his team at <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/899" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="SilverYachts (Company)">SilverYachts</a> are already busy constructing a <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Article/51003" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Second 85m Silver Loft project arrives at SilverYachts for completion (2020-02-24 15:00:00 +0100)">sistership</a> to <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/6018" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Bold85.0m (278'10&quot;)SilverYachts2019">Bold</a> that is for sale and can be ready to cruise towards the end of 2021.&nbsp;“My boat is just the role model of the sistership to promote the next one,”&nbsp;he explains.

After the Miami and Palm Beach shows,&nbsp;<a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/6018" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Bold85.0m (278'10&quot;)SilverYachts2019">Bold</a>&nbsp;will head up the east coast to Halifax before crossing the Atlantic again to reach the most northern parts of Norway where we will start a two-month Scandanavian tour.”<img src="/uploads/store/photo/113516/image/large-c8b275a50598c17c7268db882825e59d.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/113516">Unlimited cruisingBuilt for unrestricted ocean navigation, <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/6018" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Bold85.0m (278'10&quot;)SilverYachts2019">Bold’s</a> aggressive demeanour is only outweighed by her impressive ocean-going capabilities, making her a no-nonsense transoceanic speed train capable of maintaining her top speed of 23 knots in just about any sea condition. Krass recalls crossing a particularly nasty stretch of water in the Indian Ocean between the Maldives and the notorious Gulf of Aden. “Conditions started as a three to four-metre swell but later increased to six metres - a huge swell. The boat and crew didn’t miss a beat, and it served as a good reminder that she is made for any type of sea. We secured the helicopter in the aft deck hangar, a concept that worked out very well in the end.” The twin-engine Leonardo AW 109 Grand helicopter Krass is referring to can be accommodated onboard thanks to <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/6018" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Bold85.0m (278'10&quot;)SilverYachts2019">Bold’s</a> certified 12 D-value helideck, also able to welcome the more popular ACH145 or Bell 429. In addition, the aft deck is host to two <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/2810" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Rupert Marine AB (Company)">Rupert Marine</a> 10.5-metre RIBs (open and cabin version) and another Rupert six-metre rescue RIB. “It is not only tenders that can be loaded onto this space of course,” adds Krass. “Anything of 15 metres in length with a weight of 12 tonnes can be stowed here to facilitate your exploration cruises.”<img src="/uploads/store/photo/113517/image/large-a61f0e6df62810aa916f1f9eeebe1d3e.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/113517"><img src="/uploads/store/photo/107539/image/large-4569ed18f5c17d9b2a015879d1a39ed3.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/107539">Family friendlyGuided by the strict guidelines imposed by PYC regulations, <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/6018" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Bold85.0m (278'10&quot;)SilverYachts2019">Bold’s</a> interior was shaped by more than just her owner’s taste. One of the downsides of being able to invite 95 of your best friends and favourite family members on board include having to adhere to non-negotiable safety features that even affect the style of the yacht’s interior. But this didn’t perturb Krass in the slightest. “We turned the burden of the rules and regulations into a positive feature - these are stylish regulations,” he jokes. “There are lots of rules and regulations you have to follow. For example, as we couldn’t install any wooden flooring, we opted for thin and lightweight stone floors in communal areas which give the interior a very modern and elegant look.” Guests are accommodated across three VIP suites and four guest cabins on the main deck while the forward upper deck area is reserved entirely for the owner, complete with a study room, his and hers ensuite and direct access to the deck outside. “The owner’s suite has extra-large windows and you have the ability to open the side doors for some fresh air if you want, especially when cruising in climates where it’s not extremely hot.”<img src="/uploads/store/photo/107546/image/large-0cf901559e89ed99d44dd100ca317acc.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/107546"><img src="/uploads/store/photo/107545/image/large-176c24e891a55910c72bd6e95903f81f.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/107545"><img src="/uploads/store/photo/107548/image/large-5d87703c5c968b58ac301a4c6995ab65.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/107548">All-weather living<a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/6018" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Bold85.0m (278'10&quot;)SilverYachts2019">Bold’s</a> outstanding wow factor, apart from her cutting-edge design, is found in the winter garden area on the upper aft deck. Even when approaching by tender and viewed from the outside, you already know that something special is hidden behind those massive wrap-around glass panes that overlook the expansive main deck aft, but its true value can only really be appreciated when standing inside this viewing ‘loft’. Covering a total of 300 square metres, it is this observation lounge that defined the project from the beginning as <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/6018" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Bold85.0m (278'10&quot;)SilverYachts2019">Bold</a> was known as project Silver Loft during her construction. Frameless floor-to-ceiling windows enclose the entire space and partially open up the aft section for an authentic sea-breeze experience that can be enjoyed by all guests on board, not only the owner, as is the case on some yachts. “The contact with nature is very close,”&nbsp;describes Krass. “It feels like a modern loft in New York - as if you are living in a house.” A massive media wall with nine interlinked monitors gives a whole new meaning to movie night, and the entire space can be arranged based on just about any type of event you would like to host on board.&nbsp;<img src="/uploads/store/photo/107543/image/large-f997b7c6b725ecf7930c0384c133e2e6.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/107543"><img src="/uploads/store/photo/107553/image/large-e8d6d976587d008558b0d7ea69157513.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/107553"><img src="/uploads/store/photo/107555/image/large-5a6513c3fbe4b4e40438a129dd031dec.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/107555">Outdoor deck spacesTalking about multi-use spaces, <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/6018" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Bold85.0m (278'10&quot;)SilverYachts2019">Bold’s</a> outdoor decks are some of the most versatile in her class, with three fully-transformable spaces for a number of uses. The sundeck is the place to get away from it all, where you are greeted by two generous lounging areas with spectacular views offered by either one. An aft section with a gas fire pit makes for the perfect stargazing setting while the forward part with its eight-person Jacuzzi and surrounding sun pads lets you relax the day away with friends in style. The upper aft deck below is one open and expansive space that, in addition to acting as a second helicopter landing pad, can be transformed into an entertainment deck with a view. Underneath the superstructure, a bar area and 16-person table make this the main outdoor dining area and a favourite hangout spot amongst guests. The main deck aft or helideck is it’s known on board is mainly used for the storage of Bold’s impressive tender and toy collection, but once the anchor has been dropped and the craft launched into the water, this deck folds down on either side to create a 400-square-metre beach club with quite literally no obstructions.

Taking on the arduous passage across the Indian Ocean, the yacht's 21-day maiden voyage saw her cover the 8,000-nautical mile distance from Henderson, Western Australia to Cala di Volpe, Italy with only a single fuel stop required.

The first Rupert 80 yacht nearing completion

Rupert Marine has delivered a 50-foot RIB as a tender to the 100 ft Wally sailing yacht Indio. The 50-foot tender Indi Jones is based on the Rupert 50 Wheel House and customized to the buyer’s specifications. Indi Jones is built according to yacht standards and colour coded to match the mother ship. <img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/140265/image/large-7ed35f85b10978a46aa55de50af59b5c.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/140265">The tender is equipped with an advanced navigation system, full air conditioning, water maker, ice maker and all the amenities expected on a tender of this class. To assist S/Y Indio there is also an integrated fuel transfer station on the aft platform. The large workspace on aft deck can easily be converted to a big sun bed or nice lounge area with a retractable sunshade. Twin MAN 800 Hp engines coupled to a pair of Rolls Royce/Kamewa water jets gives the tender a speed range of 45 to 49 knots. The new steering system ROCCS from Rolls Royce/Kamewa makes manoeuvring extremely easy and tight turns are comfortable with the trim tabs integrated in the steering. Right now Indi Jones is on her way to Newport, Rhode Island to assist Indio in the Newport Bucket Regatta in August.Rupert Marine Thomas Rönnberg +46 8 522 209 10 <a href="mailto:thomas@rupertmarine.com?subject=Article%20on%20SuperYachtTimes.com">thomas@rupertmarine.com</a> <a target="_blank" href="http://www.rupertmarine.com/">www.rupertmarine.com</a>
