These bulwarks not only improve vision for the bridge wing stations up &nbsp;top, but also make for an extended deck area around the owner’s suite, which is positioned forward on the upper deck.&nbsp;The yacht's provisional general arrangement also displays a guest Sky Lounge aft, which has the potential to be replaced by a large private owner area that occupies the entire upper deck, complete with large aft deck and forward cockpit lounge.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/330014/image/large-ccae68c8ce3d8ae57592a82bf6a8814f.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/330014">Meanwhile, this arrangement sees a lower deck primarily dedicated to the crew and crew cabins, main galley, and technical aspects of the vessel. On the main deck forward, six guest double staterooms with elevated sea views can be found.Moving to the main deck aft, guests are welcomed by a saloon and dining area that lead to a multi-zone aft deck with a bar, opportunities for alfresco dining, and an aft lounge area. The top deck is home to the wheelhouse and the captain’s cabin as well as an aft sundeck &nbsp;area. The yacht also offers a unique observation deck located in front of the mast, which houses a spa pool.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/330013/image/large-62898e8ba2a6547094a86e900e112c91.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/330013">Those onboard can also take advantage of a spacious beach club in the stern with glass doors leading out onto the &nbsp;swim platform, which offers water access via to a large transformer platform. The yacht's selection of tenders and toys are found in a traverse garage, while the foredeck functions as a touch-and-go helipad for arrival and departure.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/330015/image/large-d3bac88693e1a5f403ec33151859aa97.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/330015">“This will be a one-off project, and what makes it extra special is the fast delivery time thanks to &nbsp;our experience as a large shipyard and our sterling reputation,” says Şahıṅ kaya Orhun. “We estimate four months for finalising the GA and the superstructure architecture, and 32 months to complete the build, which is an exceptional delivery time for a custom 70-metre project. It will be built to commercial specification and there is potential for various propulsion options, including Voith Linear Jets if performance in the mid-20-knot range is required, or hybrid and even full electric propulsion packages.”“The combination of advanced hull naval architecture and contemporary superstructure &nbsp;with Ares Yachts’ capability to deliver the highest standards of construction and finish makes &nbsp;this the perfect yacht for effortless, efficient cruising in understated luxury,” Mulder concludes. “We &nbsp;think a lot of people will be excited by the project, and we are looking forward to meeting with &nbsp;prospective clients and to building the yacht of their dreams.”

However, the progressive involvement of the owner brought a refreshing renewal to the project. Now, the design looks elegant yet informal, simple yet refined. The main idea was to reduce the number of lines in the design to make them stronger, combining round and straight elements.”<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/327892/image/large-3c5274b97b738f39e1d819146685d566.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/327892"><img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/327893/image/large-3b78f9cdc2b77d4dc9c66701acba23d2.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/327893">The result is a collection of round frames that reference classic yacht designs, as well as “rational” and comfortable indoor living areas. Dose collaborated with NB111’s owner to choose a selection of natural-toned materials, including blonde walnut, earthy fabrics and marble, settling on no more than five materials per space. “This excellent design result was also greatly supported by the incredible volume of the interiors, which are comparable to a 38-metre yacht, thanks to the generous beam of 8.24-metres,” Dose adds.Read:&nbsp;<a data-gid="gid://syiq/Article/59110" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Meet designer Paolo Dose: Founder of VYD Studio (2023-11-15 14:00:00 +0100)">Meet designer Paolo Dose: Founder of VYD Studio</a><img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/327896/image/large-0f62c1d6928d166463ae12a8d3f003c6.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/327896"><a data-gid="gid://syiq/Article/59110" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Meet designer Paolo Dose: Founder of VYD Studio (2023-11-15 14:00:00 +0100)"><img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/327895/image/large-b525466c26770b328d703d00276c79f7.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/327895"></a>Performance-wise, NB111 is powered by twin <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/5350" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Volvo Penta (Company)">Volvo Penta</a> engines with <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/4531" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="International Maritime Organization (Company)">IMO</a> Tier III certification in line with the most recent emission regulations.

Drawing on insights from these previous editions and feedback from our attendees and partners, we are implementing major changes to the event’s set-up. These adjustments are designed to highlight the positive developments, identify key challenges, and focus on the solutions, so that we can drive further positive change in the region. This year's event will once again be held under the patronage of <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/6707" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="P&O Marinas (Company)">P&amp;O Marinas</a>.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/302006/image/large-523927ee97e59451086e876416452cfb.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/302006">Research project&nbsp;The Gulf Superyacht Market Report has been highly successful in providing a detailed market analysis.

The companies’ right to operate and manage the concession was signed earlier this week on 1 October. They will now develop and operate the project submitted to Valencia Port Authority for a minimum period of 35 years.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/331229/image/large-4e1695846313bf69f20dab3003726572.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/331229">The project includes three separate marinas - Marina Norte, Marina Sur and Marina City - and will renovate the entire site, breathing new life into it. The new Marina Valencia licence-holder is set to restore the “previous life and spirit” of the area, which once hosted the America’s cup, according to IPM Group.The renovation will see the facility be separated into four individual areas the first of which will consist of three marinas in the centre of the city for yachts between eight and 130-metres in length. The second section will comprise the construction of a refit and repair yard housing specialist companies.&nbsp;Moreover, the third section will include a leisure, dining, and entertainment area that merges with the locale, ensuring the marina is a popular venue for local, national, and international visitors. Lastly, the fourth section will feature an architecturally aesthetic area offering sea views, offices, and retail units, which will also be paired with parking spaces, bike lanes, jogging tracks, terraces, and landscaped gardens.&nbsp;“However, the project doesn’t just involve the revamp of the marina, but also includes the development of fascinating social, nautical, environmental and sporting proposals that will be rolled out as the whole project takes shape,” IPM group explains.&nbsp;
