(Company)">Golden Yachts</a> following an extensive refit. The superyacht was originally delivered in 2009 to designs by British firm <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/69" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Winch Design (Company)">Winch Design</a>, and the refit aimed to preserve the details of the original interior, whilst toning down the existing grey plaster features, Inox metal and dark wooden floors to give her a contemporary aesthetic.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/264219/image/large-ab6a61e94b3d73a4be3275cea33735ac.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/264219">The yacht has now been finished in a custom colour scheme with a Whisper Grey hull and a Matterhorn White superstructure.

The relation between the outdoor and indoor areas is also fully experienced in the dining area of the upper deck, where the circular doors disappear laterally and blur the lines between in and outdoor.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/264226/image/large-9abaaa6e4e1f2111841abf66447edb5e.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/264226">Project Manager Captain George Mousseris commented, “The yacht’s most distinguishing aspect is surely the quality of its construction. It’s not only the exterior lines and details of the fittings, but the hull shape as well, which gives the feeling of a robust vessel and the confidence to cruise even under the most difficult sailing circumstances. Moreover, compared to the rest of the 60-metre yachts in the market, the volume of interior and exterior areas is also quite impressive. The accommodation areas are comfortable, not only for the guests on board but there has been a serious ergonomic study also for the crew quarters and movement throughout the boat.”<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/264220/image/large-c1ca670f3243d669c6762af97bbaedf9.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/264220">“With the first step we took on board <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/319" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="O'Eva60.0m (196'10&quot;)CMN Yacht Division2009">O’E</a>va, the quality of the woods, lacquers and design details, predisposed us to a construction of high standards.

Each of the staterooms are uniquely designed, with different colour palettes used in each. The master suite has its own private office, 180-degree observation lounge that can be turned into the double stateroom with a private ensuite<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/264223/image/large-02f272615db53effc1a45269f7166a05.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/264223">Mr Vassilis Dragnis in collaboration with Mrs Anna Chatzinassiou of ACH ART Advisory have carefully curated the artwork and sculpture onboard and additional top features include her 360-degree view Jacuzzi on the sun deck.

Notably, the structural grid has reduced production time slightly and cut energy consumption by a quarter, while reducing waste volume by up to three-quarters.”In line with <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/3619" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Yachtwerft Meyer Gmbh (Company)">Yachtwerft Meyer</a>’s commitment to sustainability, hybrid or fully electric drive options are available for this series.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/329094/image/large-4ef8011cd8df6715b475fcb7478453a1.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/329094" style="box-sizing: inherit; border: 0px; font-family: &quot;Open Sans&quot;, sans-serif; position: relative; max-width: 100%; margin: 1rem 0px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: 13.6px; font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; white-space: normal; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); text-decoration-thickness: initial; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial;"> Exploring hybrid and fully electric drive optionsMichael Schutte reveals the latest advancements in drive technology for superyacht tenders. In collaboration with Torqeedo, <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/3619" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Yachtwerft Meyer Gmbh (Company)">Yachtwerft Meyer</a> has developed a fully electric version of its Silverline open tender, showcased at the Monaco Yacht Show this year. Schutte notes that while electric drives offer a zero-emission alternative, they come with a weight penalty and limited autonomy, similar to current electric cars. Nonetheless, they meet many mission needs and represent a significant step toward sustainability.Looking ahead, Schutte and his team are focusing on a fuel cell system to overcome the limitations of fully electric drives. “Small fuel cells are now being used in vehicles with specific mission profiles,” he explains. “We are working on a zero-emission hybrid system that could address the current range limitations of electric drives.” The anticipated fuel cell technology could revolutionise the practicality of electric tenders, potentially making them a viable option for more large yacht owners in the near future.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/250090/image/large-f485eacb75c6691ffa5255347b2349e7.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/250090">When discussing the benefits of hybrid versus fully electric drives, Schutte highlights the trade-offs. “The primary challenge with fully electric propulsion is weight and limited range due to battery storage capacity,” he says. In contrast, hybrid systems mitigate some of these issues by combining electric and internal combustion engines, reducing range anxiety. However, hybrids also introduce additional weight and complexity, including these associated with onboard charging systems. “While hybrid systems offer zero-emission operation in sensitive areas, the balance of risk and reward still leans towards the risk side due to these factors,” Schutte concludes.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/329290/image/large-e76ab14c9380d7c998fa69f16ba6469c.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/329290">Integrating natural and innovative materialsMichael Schutte discusses the company's approach to integrating natural and innovative materials into their tender designs. While the team experimented with flax fibre cloths and bio-resins for laminating parts, they found that the additional weight required to match traditional strength led them to reconsider this practice. “Though we studied laminating with these materials, the weight penalty for equivalent strength has dissuaded us from making it standard,” Schutte explains.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/327714/image/large-ccb57d627e75c82bd62a71fb97ef1cc4.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/327714">Despite these challenges, the company has successfully adopted alternative decking materials to replace scarce genuine teak. Schutte notes, “We have tested various alternative decking materials with positive customer feedback.” They are now exploring a super-light insulating foam from the aerospace industry, which Schutte believes could significantly reduce thermal gain and weight in engine spaces.Bio fabrics and resins are currently sourced from smaller manufacturers, but Schutte is optimistic that growing industry interest will improve their reliability and consistency. He notes that while small batch production can lead to variability in mechanical properties and might require more layers to match traditional materials' strength, the commitment to experimenting with these materials has already led to significant improvements. Schutte remains positive about the potential for bio materials, despite ongoing challenges.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/327722/image/large-b420e3ca617fade23ad0cd7b05b01420.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/327722">Towards a more sustainable future<a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/3619" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Yachtwerft Meyer Gmbh (Company)">Yachtwerft Meyer</a> is deeply committed to environmental stewardship and sustainability. Patrick Bloch emphasises the company’s dedication to minimising its environmental impact: “Our riverside location constantly reminds us of the need to protect our surroundings.”For 2030, the company has set ambitious goals, including reducing non-sustainable materials, decreasing the environmental footprint of vessels, minimising construction waste, and cutting overall energy consumption. “We are dedicating resources to exploring innovations in materials and processes to achieve a smaller future footprint,” Bloch explains.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/250088/image/large-963371dbe12908d38b4892184567bc88.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/250088" style="box-sizing: inherit; border: 0px; font-family: &quot;Open Sans&quot;, sans-serif; position: relative; max-width: 100%; margin: 1rem 0px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: 13.6px; font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; white-space: normal; text-decoration-thickness: initial; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"> Bloch takes pride in the company’s proactive approach to sustainability and innovation. “We allocate a portion of our Design &amp; Engineering time to innovation,” he says, with each team member focusing on specific areas of interest. Recent initiatives include testing laminates with flax fibres, organic resins, and natural cork cores.
