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.

Developed in collaboration with exhibitor <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/1981" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Siemens (Company)">Siemens Energy</a>, this system converts green methanol into hydrogen and then electricity. It is capable of powering the yacht's hotel functions, such as air conditioning and lighting and can recharge the batteries without needing to store hydrogen onboard. The &nbsp;carbon-neutral system can generate up to 100kW of electricity. This allows the vessel to operate its propulsion engines and diesel generator inactively, thus significantly extending the duration it can spend at anchor without relying on diesel fuel.The second major development has come from another <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Event/224" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Monaco Yacht Show - 2024">Monaco Yacht Show</a> exhibitor, the Dutch shipyard <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/29" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Feadship (Company)">Feadship</a>, which launched the 118.8-metre Feadship 821 earlier this year. Project 821 distinguishes itself as the first ever superyacht powered entirely by hydrogen, aligning with Feadship's commitment to developing "net zero" yachts by 2030. To achieve this, the company has heavily invested in adapting the required technology to the spatial constraints of a superyacht.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/310514/image/large-7928e6e601c8c856e4d7a763693038b3.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/310514">According to the Yacht Environmental Transparency Index (YETI), approximately 70-78% of a yacht’s annual energy consumption is attributed to its hotel load, with heating and air conditioning as the primary energy consumers. While <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/8907" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Feadship van Lent 821118.8m (389'9&quot;)Feadship2025">Project 821</a> may not carry enough liquid hydrogen for transoceanic journeys, it can generate sufficient electricity for all hotel load needs.&nbsp;When required, the fuel cells in <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/8907" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Feadship van Lent 821118.8m (389'9&quot;)Feadship2025">Project 821</a> can also utilise methanol, a liquid fuel which can be stored under ambient conditions. This alternative biofuel can be converted into hydrogen through steam reforming before entering the electrochemical reaction in the fuel cell. Although she will not be at the yacht show herself, the team at Feadship will be exhibiting some of the superyacht’s many features throughout the show and are looking forward to sharing their insights with visitors.&nbsp;Both <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/11733" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Almax49.99m (164'0&quot;)Sanlorenzo2024">Almax</a> and <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/8907" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Feadship van Lent 821118.8m (389'9&quot;)Feadship2025">Project 821</a> mark a major step forward in the use of both hydrogen and methanol and the entire industry is looking for ways to utilise these future fuels. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/315068/image/large-032c1cf246734545d5887abf1723f352.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/315068">Solar PowerWhile future fuels and alternative energy are a major topic of discussion, there are a number of companies that have been building yachts with sustainable energy sources. A key example of this is <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/1158" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Sunreef Yachts (Company)">Sunreef Yachts</a> with their advanced solar power technology, used throughout their lines but most particularly in their ECO series.

In 2022 <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/5877" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Water Revolution Foundation (Company)">Water Revolution Foundation</a> was joined on stage by key companies from yacht construction and design, to discuss the invaluable importance of collaboration across the industry. The goal of this discussion was to demonstrate how important it is for top companies to share their findings with smaller ones, to enable the entire industry to innovate faster and reach the 20% reduction in emissions by 2030. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/322484/image/large-f00ff66d091b7f2dba7cf4d7702e50a5.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/322484">Since that pivotal event, a number of projects have come to light with this open-source mentality, and a very important one is the 69-metre <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/34" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Vitters Shipyard (Company)">Vitters</a> sailing yacht, Project Zero by <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/15" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Vripack (Company)">Vripack</a> and <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/230" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Dykstra Naval Architects (Company)">Dykstra Naval Architects</a>. This superyacht, which is due for delivery next year, aims to be powered entirely without fossil fuels, a goal that necessitated a comprehensive reevaluation of the design approach using human-centred design techniques.The yacht's domestic power is designed to be supplied by energy generated through sailing and solar input, with the efficiency of the hull and the design of hydro-generating thrusters playing crucial roles.&nbsp;The project team tackled the energy challenge by dividing it into four key areas: harvesting, storing, saving, and managing energy. This approach was supported by extensive data collection from various yachts to capture real-world operational profiles, providing insights into energy usage patterns, such as the frequency of showers by guests. This data analysis led to the implementation of new solutions, such as installing sensors in lighting systems to reduce energy waste. Another significant innovation is the use of three centimetres of cork insulation beneath a Tesumo deck made of sustainable wood, which replaces conventional fillers and enhances thermal efficiency.&nbsp;All research from Project Zero is being published on FoundationZero.org, an open-source technology platform, which aims to share findings with the superyacht industry, broader maritime sectors, and beyond. The project's contributions to hydrogenation, routing, and sail-related technologies will be shared openly with the aim of accelerating innovation across the industry.

This week at the <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Event/224" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Monaco Yacht Show - 2024">Monaco Yacht Show</a>, Italian shipyard <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/374" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Sanlorenzo (Company)">Sanlorenzo</a> is debuting the 50Steel superyacht <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/11733" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Almax49.99m (164'0&quot;)Sanlorenzo2024">Almax</a>, the first yacht to feature a green methanol Fuel Cell system for zero-impact energy production. First unveiled in May, <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/11733" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Almax49.99m (164'0&quot;)Sanlorenzo2024">Almax</a> features a number of world-first features in addition to her methanol reformer fuel cell system and we are excited to unveil her spectacular interior design from the boards of <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/78" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Lissoni & Partners (Company)">Lissoni &amp; Partners</a>, with architecture from <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/105" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Zuccon International Project (Company)">Zuccon International</a>, to the industry for the first time. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/319400/image/large-61e24b536e7293fae90291fd0d189ce5.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/319400">A Revolutionary Interior Concept&nbsp;What makes <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/11733" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Almax49.99m (164'0&quot;)Sanlorenzo2024">Almax</a>’s interiors so unusual is that she is the first yacht to employ the HER (Hidden Engine Room) system, a revolutionary onboard concept that allows for a novel interpretation of space while keeping the product under 500 tonnes. The system, which has been patented by <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/374" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Sanlorenzo (Company)">Sanlorenzo</a>, introduces a new arrangement for the yacht’s engine room, distributing the propulsion system horizontally across the technical deck. This allows for areas within the lower deck to be utilised for guest space, and has enabled <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/374" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Sanlorenzo (Company)">Sanlorenzo</a> to integrate the Fuel Cell Reformer system, while still maximising the interior spaces available for the owner.&nbsp;The vessel’s interior configuration has been developed by <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/105" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Zuccon International Project (Company)">Zuccon International Project</a>. It is spread over five offset decks, creating spaces with particularly airy volumes that connect to the outside, while minimising partitions and barriers. The result is a number of unique spaces with a spacious saloon to aft and a dining area amidships arranged across two levels. This disruptive internal architecture is, however, imperceptible from the external profile. The yacht’s exterior maintains a clean and essential line, in perfect <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/374" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Sanlorenzo (Company)">Sanlorenzo</a> style.<a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/78" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Lissoni & Partners (Company)">Piero Lissoni</a>’s interior perfectly complements the unique deck system. The design team has reinvented classical elements in a contemporary fashion, utilising coffered ceilings and dark wooden walls to imbue the space with an elegant atmosphere. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/321816/image/large-49219955f822e58fa468b9e74891ae01.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/321816">Unprecedented Interior SpacesEach of the five interior decks are arranged on two levels, creating a horizontal axis of spaces which is a significant diversion from the traditional vertical deck arrangement. The <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/374" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Sanlorenzo (Company)">Sanlorenzo</a> team has employed large glass surfaces throughout the interior to interconnect the spaces with each other, and with the surrounding environment. The introduction of this alternating high and low concept is a unique feature of <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/11733" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Almax49.99m (164'0&quot;)Sanlorenzo2024">Almax</a>. It creates an effect of expanded onboard spaces that communicate with each other with minimal steps. This generates a naturalness in movement onboard, continually revealing new perspectives of the surrounding waters. Incredibly, the redistribution of interior spaces has no impact on the yacht’s exterior design, which remains sleek and elegant. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/321817/image/large-64190d04e9019af259cc3088cdf4f831.jpeg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/321817">The DecksFrom the aft, the superyacht’s guests are welcomed by the Ocean Lounge, which features three terraces, opening when at anchor to create a 135 square-metre beach on the water. This huge deck is home to a large swimming pool, to the aft of which is the swim platform, giving guests the closest possible connection to the ocean.&nbsp;This impressive terrace leads through to a large full-beam saloon called the Beach House, with steps leading up to the dining area. The stairs connecting the internal spaces are flanked in glass, allowing light to flood from the large floor to ceiling windows, throughout the decks. This feature also helps to connect the unique areas, such as the gym and spa on the lower deck, to the second saloon on the main deck.In addition to the Beach House and spa area, the lower deck is home to two VIP and two double staterooms, which can be configured as either doubles or singles, both with Pullman beds. The entire lower deck, both in the lounge and stateroom areas, is characterised by a uniform colour palette &nbsp;and material consistency, with dark wood for ceilings and panelling contrasting with the light-coloured flooring. However, in the sleeping area, the vertical cladding is treated with light wood to enhance the light coming through the vertical portholes.From the lower deck, guests are led up the stairs to the main onboard living areas, with the saloon and dining room. Like the Beach House, the main deck saloon is surrounded by ocean views, with glass doors leading out to the aft deck, enhancing the connection to the yacht’s environment. Looking to the fore from the main saloon, the view through the yacht meets the dining room, located on the lower level on the main deck. The dining area is exceptionally designed, with a 3.7 metre ceiling height and visual perspectives to both the Beach House on the deck below, and the main deck saloon, out to the sea beyond.&nbsp;The main deck is also home to the full-beam owner’s suite, which has been decorated in a unique aesthetic with Japanese-style screens, dark wood walls and wallpaper. The master suite features two dressing rooms at its entrance, as well as a large ensuite bathroom. To the fore of the master suite is the yacht’s garage, housing a 7-metre tender, two jet skis, and the water toys. In this section of the deck, the Fuel Cells, the innovative technology powering the yacht’s hotel services with green energy, are also housed.The upper deck, which is accessed via an internal staircase, is home to both the yacht’s wheelhouse and a spacious deck to aft with an al fresco dining area and lounge. This deck has been designed with glass windbreak panels, which will allow the deck to be closed off in cooler climates, allowing guests to enjoy the outside no matter the weather.&nbsp;The final space aboard the yacht is the sun deck, featuring 360-degree panoramic views. Here, the application of the two-level offset concept reveals a pleasant surprise: a pool is located between the high aft space and the low, partially covered bow space, equipped with sofas and seating to enjoy the sunbathing experience to the fullest.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/321819/image/large-b99d8f59a32055e6ed72f3431dc68098.png" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/321819">Fuel of the Future&nbsp;While <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/11733" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Almax49.99m (164'0&quot;)Sanlorenzo2024">Almax</a>’s spectacular interior concept is expected to draw a crowd at this week’s event, it is her green methanol Reformer Fuel Cell system that truly sets the superyacht apart from the other vessels exhibited at the show. This revolutionary system allows for the production of up to 100 kW of energy, with propulsion engines and diesel generators turned off. The system is completely carbon neutral, and significantly extends the time the yacht can remain at anchor without diesel fuel consumption, covering about 90% of a superyacht’s typical usage time with zero emissions and reducing annual emissions by 20 to 30%.&nbsp;With engines and generators off, <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/11733" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Almax49.99m (164'0&quot;)Sanlorenzo2024">Almax</a> will offer her guests the rare luxury of silence when at anchor. They will also benefit from a reduction in vibrations, both of which are additional benefits of utilising the green methanol Reformer Fuel Cell system for the hotel load. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/321818/image/large-552b503f07246f03dd3dfa4155931495.png" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/321818">"With the launch of the 50Steel, <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/374" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Sanlorenzo (Company)">Sanlorenzo</a> celebrates a fundamental milestone in its history, in the spirit of innovation and sustainability.

This marks an increase of 13.6 percent compared to the previous year.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/329235/image/large-b4589f26c4c7a93daac2ab5245ae8cd9.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/329235">The ‘Yachting in Figures’ report was created in partnership with the Edison Foundation and presented at the Boating Economic Forecast conference. It further underlines Italy's leading role in the global yacht building market, further solidifying its position as the leading exporter with a 19.3 percent share of global exports. Notably, the shipbuilding sector saw a 14.8 percent increase in turnover, approaching the upper limit of projected estimates.Exports significantly contributed to this growth, with shipbuilding production exports surpassing €4 billion in 2023 and showing continued upward trends into early 2024. Such a performance showcases Italy's prominent role in the superyacht segment, as well as its expanding presence in the markets for large inflatable boats and marine components.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/329244/image/large-5e36ec7d84648064b9983ac6b25e028b.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/329244">In 2023, the yachting industry impacted Italy's economic landscape through contributions to export growth, employment, and GDP. The sector employed 30,690 individuals, reflecting a seven percent increase from the previous year, and contributed more than €7 billion to the national GDP, up by 14.2 percent, compared to 2023.The industry is currently experiencing a normalisation in growth, amid challenges like elevated inventories of recreational boats and complex global economic conditions. However, the sector maintains a positive outlook. The significant impact of the Genoa International Boat Show is key in guiding the sector as it addresses the challenges of digitalisation and sustainability transitions.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/329243/image/large-d8323e98f47c36d635d1261900f5a5fc.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/329243">Enrica Del Grosso, Regional Director of the North-west Business Network at SACE, in her closing remarks, underscored the support provided by the Italian insurance-financial group in enhancing the competitiveness of companies within the sector amidst the ongoing transitions towards digitalisation and sustainability.

With versatility at the forefront of her design, the Gladius 52 yacht offers a variety of configurations within her adaptable interior layout.&nbsp;Furthermore, Gladius 52 is composed of a full displacement steel hull and aluminium superstructure. Aesthetically, the Gladius 52 is defined by her harmonious collection of curves, sculpted surfaces, and balanced proportions, along with her exploration-oriented traits. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/329162/image/large-b54637ea3a9ce46b3db1e46abeb0fb86.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/329162">She features an alfresco sky lounge located on her bridge deck, which allows for access to the sundeck above, where a bar, Jacuzzi, dining and lounge area provide further outdoor entertainment.Additionally, an extra level leads guests to the eagle’s nest situated near the yacht’s mast, and contains a sunbed with panoramic views 11-metres above sea level.
