Van Geest Design and Rob Doyle design naval architecture teamed up once more and unveiled a new design for a 93-metre fast, ketch performance sailing yacht, known as Ripple. <img src="/uploads/store/photo/47771/image/large-52a5d4e5c31191706a1ab882f9288445.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/47771">The founders of Van Geest Design and Rob Doyle design naval architecture were previously colleagues at Ron Holland design studio back in 1999, where they worked together when the studio developed the largest ever composite built sloop, the 77.6-metre Mirabella V (<a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/301" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="M577.6m (254'7&quot;)">M5</a>). Now 19 years later, after studying the recent changes in the market, Van Geest and Rob Doyle took the feedback they received from numerous superyacht owners whom they designed for over the years and incorporated it into the new design.<img src="/uploads/store/photo/47770/image/large-34ff5840c745e88abdf2541b0aa591eb.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/47770">As more clients seek out sailing yachts with increased interior volume and more space on the deck for activities, the companies developed a design which offered a safe distance from the deck and sailing operations for guests and crew. For example, the new concept features a swing keel system in order not to take any space away from the internal volume when it is up, which also gives the sailing yacht more directional stability. <img src="/uploads/store/photo/47766/image/large-7a8380ace510642fe9e907bf2d19eaba.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/47766">&nbsp;The sky deck offers 360-degree visibility and has been designed for easy circulation as there are no winches, blocs or sheer handling on sight. The sailing system is run by an automated, built-in process within the yacht’s structure, which allows the forward and aft decks to be free for gatherings. Van Geest Design also integrated lighting within the yacht’s architecture and rigging, which gives the sailing yacht a unique appearance at night. &nbsp;<img src="/uploads/store/photo/47768/image/large-477ab95fa40c437dbf8bf70f18b1da28.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/47768">Other stand out features in the new design include direct beach access from the open transom, a seawater pool and hot tub, room for two 10-metre guest tenders in the well in the foredeck and fully customisable interiors. &nbsp;

(Company)">Ame</a>r 42A, a new 42-metre all-aluminium yacht developed for <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/1364" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Amer Yachts S.p.A. (Company)">Amer Yachts</a>, which merges sleek, innovative design with lightweight construction.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/398223/image/large-6f0b3c85c8ae6ba036580d1af8b70677.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/398223"> Conceived by Luxardo for the Italian shipyard’s new steel production line, the Amer 42A brings together innovation, functionality and aesthetics through what the designer describes as a precise technical and stylistic vision. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/398225/image/large-4ff255fafd4eb028927dc49b851215b4.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/398225">Distinguished by her layered glazing and lines reminiscent of waves, the yacht presents “energy, dynamism, and sportiness.” Rather than sticking to conventional horizontal deck lines, the Amer 42A features sinuous deck contours that create a great sense of movement. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/398221/image/large-7355946cde947ede038f3fdfaaa1b0ba.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/398221">Despite her dynamic design, the Amer 42A retains large windows to strengthen the relationship between the interior and exterior, with an emphasis on the guests immersing themselves with the surrounding seascape. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/398220/image/large-1e6fb3f39db0f20b5e20aa06a2b7de47.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/398220">From hull to superstructure, the yacht is constructed entirely in aluminium. According to the designer, this flexible material reduces overall weight while improving performance, enabling higher speeds with greater efficiency, and a low-slung profile that reduces drag while optimising navigation.Moreover, these sculptural forms are made possible by the use of the ductile material in creating pronounced curves, undercuts, overhangs, and cantilevers while maintaining structural efficiency.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/398224/image/large-22fc13d38f01b6d1bb5ffc8f649cd647.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/398224" 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;">With a layout designed to balance engineering and contemporary design, accommodation onboard the Amer 42A is arranged across a full-beam owner's suite on the main deck, alongside guest staterooms located on the lower deck. Moving outside, her sundeck has been designed as the dedicated area for relaxation.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/398222/image/large-9ee3dd078ec7b6e9225d6e60feda2647.png" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/398222" 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;">

Paris-based design studio <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/8836" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="AERI (Company)">Aeri</a> has unveiled the 60-metre superyacht concept, Aeon. While her exterior impresses with its sculpted form and dynamic silhouette, her interiors draw immediate inspiration from traditional Japanese ink painting, known as Sumi-e.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/397900/image/large-25770025bec72332e78e089c1e6f4c78.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/397900">This design language is echoed throughout the yacht, where a tapered stern and carefully sculpted hull give her a sense of movement even when at anchor. Her superstructure follows the same architectural philosophy, with each deck set slightly back from the one below, creating a series of spacious outdoor terraces while reducing the yacht’s visual bulk.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/397905/image/large-7b0d07ff485db32e75db80d4dc5f6721.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/397905">Inside, Aeon's main saloon is defined by expansive panelling and an understated aesthetic. Hand-painted Sumi-e-inspired panels, paired with a carefully curated palette of neutral tones and dark woods, create a serene atmosphere that runs throughout the yacht.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/397904/image/large-7f18429be1d53c258046583d94ef94e5.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/397904">At the centre of her main saloon, a low-profile L-shaped sofa in cream fabric anchors the space. Overhead, a striking ceiling feature combines illuminated panels with wood inlays, subtly echoing the Sumi-e inspiration. Carefully selected furnishings, including sculptural bar stools, enhance the sense of elegance, while sliding doors lead seamlessly to the adjacent outdoor dining and lounge areas.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/397902/image/large-d828f08f688ddb4924bb3f89453ffe66.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/397902"><img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/397903/image/large-61472bc9b5dc00bd42d9f10dc2a9914f.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/397903">With owner privacy and flexibility in mind, Aeon's designer has presented several general arrangement options. She measures a beam of 10.5-metres and a gross tonnage of approximately 500 GT plus. Aeon offers either five or six guest cabins, alongside a variety of entertainment and lifestyle configurations, and is supported by crew accommodation in eight cabins.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/397906/image/large-4a9069b84e00c7fea6d53c75c398727b.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/397906"><img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/397899/image/large-269c5397b57b06bbe3c704364d4423f0.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/397899">One layout features a dedicated private owner’s deck complete with a Jacuzzi and outdoor relaxation area. Forward, a larger swimming pool area enhances leisure space, while aft, an open discussion pit connects directly to an enclosed wellness area.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/397901/image/large-ff3b63ffaedeb07159be13b1974dbb7a.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/397901">“Rather than relying on sheer scale for its presence, the concept seeks to demonstrate how carefully considered proportions, sculpted surfaces and architectural layering can create a yacht with a distinctive identity and a powerful visual character,” concluded the design studio.

Paris-based design studio Aeri has unveiled the 60-metre superyacht concept, Aeon.

Aeon: 60m yacht concept with traditional Japanese ink painting-inspired interiors

Independent designer Sanjit Nair has unveiled the 110-metre yacht concept Airavat. The yacht draws on traditional Indian architecture and Eastern character to present a new interpretation of contemporary superyacht design.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/397835/image/large-8ecee397953de6a34f0649093b7c1551.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/397835">Conceived without the constraints of a specific gross tonnage category or yacht class, Airavat takes inspiration from monumental Indian temples, translating their structural expression, spatial layouts and craftsmanship into a contemporary yacht concept. According to the designer, the project marks a deliberate departure from the "glass-box" aesthetic prevalent across much of today's superyacht market.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/397818/image/large-4a501bd7a2cc02b1897dd11e4ee1c309.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/397818"><img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/397817/image/large-ea64ebd61db0c46a90d599d1a10991bc.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/397817">Inspired by the mythical royal white elephant, the designer aims for the Airavat concept to move past the "glass-box" and “automotive” themes that currently dominate the superyacht market. Unburdened from the typical limitations of specific yacht tonnage, this concept was conceived to offer a fresh vision in the industry.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/397836/image/large-f7bbcc3fc5f0fb968ffc0eb362903afa.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/397836"><img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/397809/image/large-70e285713fb37f7cbe96be09c5aad23f.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/397809" 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;">Rather than concealing the vessel's structural boundaries, designer Sanjit Nair incorporates the grandeur, massive scale, and intricate artistry of traditional Indian temple architecture, turning the yacht into a spiritual sanctuary at sea.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/397812/image/large-5315c8defbbaf32c671d9fd60b0bb539.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/397812">Reflecting on the project, Sanjit Nair added: "Superyacht design has hit a structural and spatial saturation point; vessels are beginning to mimic one another, losing their individual soul. Vision Juggernaut is how I want to add a different kind of value to yacht design. It is an expression of personal style and a form of adding an authentic Eastern character–defined by raw scale, monumental reverence and structural honesty– to the global stage.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/397829/image/large-0db7f57680934fa8302612781a57eae3.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/397829">In terms of defining features, Airavat showcases its exposed double-height structural pillars that support the superstructure. Rather than hiding these structural elements, the design celebrates the grandeur of traditional Indian stone columns to create a striking silhouette.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/397830/image/large-b45ee2abe559d2df1ed9d63cc785df4c.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/397830" 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;">Her aft deck has been conceived as a ceremonial arrival space, featuring a broad staircase descending to the swim platform alongside an 11-metre infinity pool. Inspired by the Varanasi Ghats along the Ganges River, the arrangement is intended to recreate the experience of approaching India's historic riverside steps.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/397816/image/large-edfb7199b3e7509fe8046f04bab6a25b.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/397816" 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;">Forward, the yacht's sculptural bow mimics the sweep of an elephant's trunk, while the hull and superstructure reference the star-shaped foundations of Karnataka's Keshava Temple. Meanwhile, a life-sized sculpture of the mythical white elephant Airavata stands prominently on the bow, reinforcing the yacht’s identity.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/397813/image/large-a4a30e7a838bd434bc6a6ecda2c06339.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/397813"><img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/397815/image/large-07fce8c614fd8943a271cff3fbf41a20.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/397815">Airavat&nbsp;creatively reimagines ancient motifs as modern yacht elements. For instance, overhanging balconies inspired by Jharokha architecture serve as private viewing retreats overlooking the sea.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/397827/image/large-0e53430bebfe5872bc16c1c5726f9017.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/397827"><img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/397828/image/large-1072cfe948d99771e1dbfa2d016acd4a.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/397828">Moving inside, the design creates an interplay of light and geometry: circular, Mandala-inspired teak decking aligns with an illuminated glass roof above the dining pavilion, capturing the &nbsp;"open-sky" architecture found in the Kopeshwar Shiva Temple.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/397826/image/large-6612b1e51380b6bd0bb89d057ff19208.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/397826">With a beam of 17-metres, Airavat features a centralised arrangement of interior living spaces intended to maximise onboard comfort and stability. The owner's deck incorporates a spacious aft lounge fitted with a custom diamond-shaped bar, while a grand central staircase leads to the bridge deck dining pavilion, set beneath the Mandala-inspired skylight.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/397832/image/large-34732874166f334be26b3a63f8a246d3.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/397832">

Italian studio <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/8392" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="SY design (Company)">SY Design</a> has unveiled Kairos, a 52-metre motor yacht concept centred around a stronger connection between the guests and the surrounding sea.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/397334/image/large-8796d9063db33dbbfbb5f54882d17b18.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/397334">Designed to remain under the 500 GT threshold, Kairos is conceived to be built with a lightweight aluminum structure, with the intention of making the outdoors the heart of life onboard. The designer has noted that the concept carefully combines open, flowing spaces with floor-to-ceiling glazing and wide hull openings. Moreover, the layout is intended to draw in natural light to flood her interiors, frame breathtaking sea views, and create a seamless access to the water. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/397336/image/large-42daf1825f66f137b146990641679193.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/397336">Outside, Kairos is characterised by slender proportions and a modern profile that flows effortlessly from the bow to the stern.Her stern serves as one of the focal points of the project. A magnificent pool set at sea level becomes the part of the beach club area, crafted to deepen the connection between the guests and the ocean and expand the sense of openness across her decks. Reflecting the project's philosophy, <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/8392" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="SY design (Company)">SY Design</a> explained that "the objective was not to maximise gross tonnage, but to maximise the owner's experience of the sea."<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/397335/image/large-e57a868a18e96191861bfc535940ba8c.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/397335">Wide lateral openings in the hull further extend the views, and invites abundant natural light to dance across the aft, resulting in a bright and open area. Above, her main deck cockpit has been envisioned as a terrace overlooking the sea. In this space, two opposing L-shaped sofas are arranged for mingling and casual lounging, &nbsp;while glass bulwarks preserve uninterrupted views of the horizon.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/397337/image/large-8562659c5dd2fd32334132b65c354912.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/397337">Ascending further, the yacht’s expansive 105-square-metre fly deck serves as a defining outdoor living area, offering space for socialising, entertaining and open-air dining. Forward, her deck features a flexible layout, allowing owners to tailor the space based on their preferences. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/397333/image/large-f17ca1e6f871b464c45ae86a2169b934.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/397333">With a beam of nine-metres, accommodation onboard Kairos is arranged for up to 12 guests across six staterooms.

The yacht has been developed to maximise efficiency while reducing emissions and onboard noise levels.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/395727/image/large-a4837ca59b87942deeb203ec6ef20a03.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/395727" 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);">Three operating modes have been proposed. In Zero Mode or also known as Silent Mode, M80 would operate fully on electric propulsion, delivering vibration-free navigation with zero local emissions for up to eight hours, which would enable access to environmentally protected areas.In Eco-Hybrid Mode, diesel generators operate at optimal efficiency while electric motors provide propulsion, reducing fuel consumption by an estimated 25 to 30 percent.

A touch-and-go helipad located on the bow supports rapid transfers of guests between destinations, while the yacht's relatively shallow 3.75-metre draught allows access to shallow cruising grounds.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/395718/image/large-aebceaa67499330e5bfd597898e7c678.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/395718">The owner’s private full-beam apartment is the highlight of M80’s guest accommodations. The suite includes a study, library, walk-in wardrobe, en-suite bathroom and a dedicated outdoor balcony offering direct access to private deck space. With a beam of 13.5-metres, the yacht is arranged to accommodate up to 14 guests across seven staterooms, supported by a crew of 22 alongside her captain.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/395709/image/large-1077afc5c96b3929c70ee9374bc96865.png" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/395709">M80’s guest areas are intended to maximise connections with the surrounding sea.

<a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/8466" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Lagaria (Company)">Lagaria</a> has unveiled the 90-metre motor yacht concept Platea. Developed by Monaco-based yacht design and architecture studio <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/8466" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Lagaria (Company)">Lagaria</a>, Platea reconfigures the traditional yacht layout by minimising interior volume and placing emphasis on expansive exterior living spaces.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/395696/image/large-94a0a1cd747c02edba683d1e932fefe0.png" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/395696">Unlike most yachts, which prioritise enclosed volume, the design takes a different approach. &nbsp;Platea’s design compresses the indoor programme to free up the deck. This creates a floating beach club of unusual generosity, where the main deck becomes one continuous social landscape. In this area, an open-plan bar, lounge and dining space extends directly onto a large sheltered terrace complete with an oversized pool, Jacuzzi and full-service bar.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/395703/image/large-b3de0009761cfa44415a389b655c992e.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/395703">In terms of accommodation, guest staterooms are positioned on the lower deck. This decision reflects the designers’ intention to prioritise communal spaces over private volume. Since staterooms are used primarily for sleeping and bathing, this allows prime deck areas to be dedicated to social and experiential use.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/395702/image/large-c922893b880df550ce74538eaf7ab22a.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/395702">Moreover, the wheelhouse is located aft of midship, inspired by Scandinavian well-boat design. This opens up the central section of the yacht, creating an uninterrupted social zone, while still maintaining full operational visibility through wing stations. Platea’s owner also benefits from a private apartment with its own balcony. The stateroom is positioned aft for enhanced privacy and separation from guest areas.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/395697/image/large-46e1abf3cbcf2a55d9af45504a59ea42.png" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/395697">“These are not purely aesthetic decisions, but part of a broader commercial thesis,” said the design studio. “At approximately 20 percent lower gross tonnage than comparable 90-metre charter yachts, Platea is designed around the idea that experiential quality, not enclosed volume - is what ultimately drives charter demand.” By prioritising exterior living spaces, the design reinforces its focus on experiential value over internal volume.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/395695/image/large-940d9b0039e45cbf9fcf3287eeac9d05.png" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/395695">“Platea distills what defines <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/8466" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Lagaria (Company)">Lagaria</a> at its best: original thinking, a rigorous design logic, and a deep curiosity about the relationship between space and experience - pursued with respect for the sea and the operational realities that come with it,” the studio concluded.

<a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/8873" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Strategic Marine (Company)">Strategic Marine</a> has unveiled a new 42-metre yacht support vessel concept, marking the Singapore-based shipbuilder's entry into the luxury yachting sector.Developed in collaboration with <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/8874" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="MAG Subsea Pte Ltd (Company)">MAG Subsea</a> and Australian naval architecture studio <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/8875" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Southerly Designs (Company)">Southerly Designs</a>, the new platform has been conceived to extend the range, capability, and safety of superyacht expeditions worldwide.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/395402/image/large-98d7782d86a62c2454c4fbb5e5ecb5cd.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/395402">Also known as a shadow vessel or chase boat, a yacht support vessel is designed to travel alongside a mothership, providing storage and operational support, alongside other essential services. These vessels effectively extended the reach and capabilities of superyacht operations by serving as floating bases for helicopters, submarines, tenders, water toys and additional crew.According to <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/8873" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Strategic Marine (Company)">Strategic Marine</a>, the vessel is aimed at a new generation of owners who prioritise experiential travel, social and environmental responsibility, and adventure rather than traditional displays of wealth.Measuring 42-metres in length overall, the yacht support vessel offers more than 140-square-metres of deck area, alongside crane and lift capabilities.A key aspect of the design is her adaptable platform. The owners and captains can expect a flexible platform that can accommodate a wide range of equipment and operational needs, including emergency responses which expands her role beyond conventional yacht support operations.Reinforcing her versatility, the support vessel can also be configured with gyro stabilisation systems for comfort and efficiency, alongside hybrid propulsion solutions tailored to owner and mission requirements. Additional specifications, including speed, beam and draft, remain customisable according to client requirements.“This vessel represents a natural evolution of <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/8873" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Strategic Marine (Company)">Strategic Marine</a>’s expertise in advanced aluminium vessel construction,” commented Chan Eng Yew, CEO of <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/8873" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Strategic Marine (Company)">Strategic Marine</a>. “As the superyacht sector continues to grow, we recognised a clear opportunity to deliver a support vessel purpose-built for the pleasure craft market – one that meets the quality our clients have come to expect from us, with the reliability and performance our vessels are known for.”<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/395401/image/large-865a52c8ebd228ff9bf16c70468eaf81.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/395401">Andrew Taylor, Managing Director of <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/8875" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Southerly Designs (Company)">Southerly Designs</a>, added: “Our focus was to create a vessel that is both highly capable and visually distinctive.
