First look: Tankoa's 72m superyacht Solo on sea trials
Following her August launch, superyacht Solo has been photographed on her sea trials off the coast of Genoa, Italy. Nearing delivery, the 72-metre superyacht will be on display at the 2018 Monaco Yacht show later this month.

Standout design elements include a touch-and-go helipad, private owner’s deck and a sauna/wellness centre with a hydraulic fold-out balcony.
