Ocean Alexander displays three flagship yachts at the Miami International Boat Show 2025

Kicking off between 8 and 12 May 2025 in Göcek, Fethiye, the inaugural <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Event/284" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Superyacht Show Türkiye - 2025">Superyacht Show Türkiye</a> 2025 is set to make a name for itself amongst international boat shows worldwide. SuperYacht Times Features Writer Emma Dailey sat down with the makers behind this unmissable four-day event to learn how they are strengthening the Turkish yachting sector and breaking the boat show mould.&nbsp;At the show, visitors will be able to peruse a display of traditional Turkish wooden gullets as well as state-of-the-art builds. Additionally, participating companies are set to showcase their forward-thinking concepts and international yacht debuts, while key speakers share their insights into the latest industry trends.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/352767/image/large-8d773b044a528ee95fe953c2425037c1.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/352767">Despite its coastal positioning, large-scale maritime fairs are a rare sight in Göcek, as many boat shows flock to the densely populated Istanbul instead. Even so, the often overlooked Göcek is a crucial spot on many yacht travel routes, boasting an impressive seven full-equipped marinas in total. Owner Mehmet Kabak has even bigger aspirations for the region’s future, explaining “our goal is to organise three sectoral events annually in this region, including the boat show.”<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/352770/image/large-2bbf92f452a80827f926ba0bf8d20d1c.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/352770">Why the Superyacht Show Türkiye 2025?One of the most standout aspects of the <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Event/284" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Superyacht Show Türkiye - 2025">Superyacht Show Türkiye</a> is the location named in its title. “According to recent reports,” Kabak said, “Turkey ranks second in the world in yacht production. We have a significant number of shipyards offering specialised productions and various options, as well as the potential to provide all technical support.”<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/352774/image/large-203250c14a5beff5fefc0f188afbe653.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/352774">“We believe that the production power of Turkey has not been adequately emphasised in fairs held within the country, and international participation is often lower than expected. Göcek offers us a unique advantage in this regard,” Kabak continued.Not only that, but the bustling yacht tourism present in the region perfectly complements the entertainment activities and evening mixer events set to occur over the four days, creating an ideal springboard for networking with yachting enthusiasts and experts. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/352771/image/large-741934102d901c445e78a009e692b9bb.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/352771">Broadening Turkish horizons “Türkiye is almost a peninsula, and while maritime culture was initially prevalent in coastal cities, it has recently spread to inland areas as well,” Kabak explained. In the past five years especially, the country has seen a breakthrough, as increases in their logistical capabilities have “placed us very close to key countries in yacht production, such as Italy and the Netherlands,” Kabak said.&nbsp;More and more yacht manufacturers are branching into refit operations on a daily basis, while many refit firms are taking initiative to full-scale production, making it a destination for every stage of the vessel’s life cycle and global player in yachting. “We can also observe that Turkish companies have achieved significant sales figures in the global market,” Kabak added. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/352768/image/large-ab93eeeef39e15eeef17378be2f94fa7.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/352768">Keeping up with the latest trendsAs a brand new event, much of <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Event/284" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Superyacht Show Türkiye - 2025">Superyacht Show Türkiye</a>’s exhibitions will centre around relevant and popular topics in the yachting industry. One such subject is that of sustainability, as the show will address eco-friendly yacht designs and technology that strive to reduce environmental footprints. There will also be a special focus on the growing demand for custom-build yachts, exploring the industry’s shift to pioneering personalisation.“Another trend is the integration of advanced technologies, such as smart connectivity and AI-driven navigation systems, which enhance both the performance and the overall experience of yachting. Furthermore, the rise of experiential travel has led to a greater emphasis on creating unique and immersive experiences for yacht owners and charter clients. Through our event, we aim to showcase these trends and provide a platform for industry professionals to connect, exchange ideas, and explore the future of yachting,” Kabak commented. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/352769/image/large-1f293c7d251d7518d5be10e51bce25ca.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/352769">Reaching a new client base In addition to exhibiting an exciting array of vessels, high-profile deals and partnerships, the <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Event/284" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Superyacht Show Türkiye - 2025">Superyacht Show Türkiye 2025</a> provides the perfect platform for yacht builders, designers and suppliers to reach new clientele.&nbsp;“We make it a priority to maximise the use of national and international publications, social media, and our extensive communication network,” Kabak explained. “Based on ticket sales, participant profiles, and the diversity of our conference speakers, it is clear that there is significant interest from different countries and various sectors of the industry. We are confident that this will contribute to increasing new client potential during the show.”<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/352772/image/large-3df47ad05e55dbaba8babe244d3747f9.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/352772">A budding boat show with long-term potential&nbsp;Originally founded with the goal of organising three sectoral events annually, The <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Event/284" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Superyacht Show Türkiye - 2025">Superyacht Show Türkiye</a> team’s first event was held on 23 November 2024. Known as the “First International Women in Yachting” conference, the event featured 13 international professional women from various sectors of the industry congregating to share their experiences with other women in the field.&nbsp;“Expanding our conferences to other cities and countries and making this a traditional format is certainly among our long-term goals as <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Event/284" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Superyacht Show Türkiye - 2025">Superyacht Show Türkiye</a>. Regarding the Boat Show, our aspiration is to go beyond the marinas and event venues by integrating the entire Göcek area into the event. Our vision is to create a central space where the world of yachting and sea enthusiasts can regularly gather,” Kabak concluded.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/352766/image/large-a5d8e3c6488eff7090efd5a9c0102f38.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/352766">

<a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/3559" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Videoworks Group (Company)">Videoworks</a>, a leader in advanced audio-visual, IT and communication systems for superyachts, specialises in creating bespoke onboard systems that combine cutting-edge technology with user-friendly design. Headquartered in Italy and with offices in the Netherlands, <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/3559" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Videoworks Group (Company)">Videoworks</a> has built a strong reputation for delivering innovative and reliable solutions tailored to the unique demands of the superyacht industry.With over 25 years of experience, they enhance the onboard experience with features such as immersive entertainment systems and advanced lighting and climate controls. Continuing its drive for innovation, <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/3559" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Videoworks Group (Company)">Videoworks</a> has introduced a groundbreaking advancement in onboard automation, a new domotic control system that combines cutting-edge technology with the timeless simplicity of a physical remote control.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/352407/image/large-542697ef7208653729b3ba499364805f.png" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/352407">In an age where smart home devices like Alexa and Google Home have made household automation more intuitive, <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/3559" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Videoworks Group (Company)">Videoworks</a> is bringing the same streamlined functionality to the world of luxury yachts. Their goal is simple, to enhance comfort and convenience, without compromising sophistication.This new approach reflects a "Back to the Future" philosophy: a return to intuitive, tactile design, while leveraging advanced engineering. For years, yacht domotic systems have centred around touchscreen tablets, which, while technically impressive, often prove cumbersome for guests and owners unfamiliar with the interfaces. Navigating complex digital menus to adjust lighting, temperature, or audio settings can detract from the overall onboard experience. <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/3559" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Videoworks Group (Company)">Videoworks</a>’ latest solution prioritises simplicity, by replacing these complex interfaces with a straightforward remote that features tactile buttons for adjusting key functions like audio, TV, lighting and room temperature.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/352411/image/large-fadab9bc7cfc79dfaf767a48050c0c1e.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/352411">Responding to owner and guest feedbackThe inspiration for this shift came directly from the company’s clients. Yacht owners and guests frequently expressed frustration with overcomplicated control systems that required learning new interfaces and navigating through complex apps just to complete simple tasks.“The idea came from listening to our customers,” explains Francesco Pierpaoli, Chief Information Officer (CIO) at <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/3559" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Videoworks Group (Company)">Videoworks</a>. “They increasingly express a desire for simplicity and ease of use. For instance, in a cabin setting, having a physical remote with just a few intuitive buttons is far more convenient than dealing with an iPad touchscreen. This feedback helped shape our focus on creating a seamless and distraction-free user experience.”This reflects a broader shift within the luxury market. In industries such as automotive and high-end consumer electronics, manufacturers have been moving towards more user-friendly interfaces that maintain sophisticated functionality without overwhelming the user.High-performance cars now feature simplified dashboards and voice-activated controls, while smart home devices are designed to function with minimal user input. <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/3559" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Videoworks Group (Company)">Videoworks</a> is bringing this same philosophy to superyacht technology, ensuring that even the most advanced systems remain approachable and easy to use.Blending simplicity with advanced technologyThe new system from <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/3559" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Videoworks Group (Company)">Videoworks</a> is not just about convenience, it also leverages advanced technology to enhance performance and flexibility. The physical remote is designed to be reliable and responsive, ensuring that commands are executed quickly and accurately. High-speed wireless connections, now a standard feature on large yachts, enable seamless communication between the remote and the yacht’s central systems.A key feature of the new system is its compatibility with guests’ personal devices. Just as smart TVs and home sound systems now allow users to stream content from their phones, <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/3559" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Videoworks Group (Company)">Videoworks</a>’ solution enables guests to play their favourite music and movies directly from their smartphones to the onboard entertainment system. A dedicated companion app provides additional control options, allowing guests to adjust audio levels, change lighting scenes and manage room temperature from their phone.&nbsp;This flexibility is especially valuable in cabin settings, where personal preference is key.

The floor-to-ceiling windows maximise natural light, while the floating stairwell and smart features elevate the sense of openness.”<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/351509/image/large-893082fe9d5e11147c93c67fdb66d5a0.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/351509">Ranjit Rajan, Chief Production Officer at <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/955" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Gulf Craft (Company)">Gulf Craft</a>, further highlighted the importance of natural elements in the yacht’s design. “From the outset, we prioritised seamless indoor-outdoor living, ensuring owners always feel connected to the sea,” he said. “This is why we introduced expansive fold-down balconies, large patio doors in the dining area, and a beautifully designed skylight that floods the lower deck cabins with natural light.”The <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/14230" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Majesty 100 Terrace/0132.25m (105'10&quot;)Gulf Craft 2025">Majesty 100 Terrace</a> boasts a smooth, sleek and streamlined profile and has been engineered to excel in both performance and sophistication. With an impressive 199 GT, she offers exceptional space and comfort, with a key highlight being her private owner’s terrace at the bow. “This is something that has never been seen before on a yacht of this size,” Patel noted. “It provides unparalleled views and protection from the elements, giving owners a unique private outdoor space without having to step onto the main deck.”Rajan expanded on this, emphasising <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/955" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Gulf Craft (Company)">Gulf Craft</a>’s approach to maximising air and light throughout the yacht. “From the rounded, flowing geometry of the interiors to the increase in lower deck window size, every aspect was carefully designed to create a bright, airy environment,” he explained. “The goal was to make every area on board feel open, comfortable, and naturally illuminated.”<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/351511/image/large-e2a8e2946334d1ad2ecdfd61cf135d8f.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/351511">Gulf Craft &amp; Phathom Studio: A Continued CollaborationAs the second collaboration built between <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/955" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Gulf Craft (Company)">Gulf Craft</a> and <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/5530" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Phathom Studio (Company)">Phathom Studio</a>, the <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/14230" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Majesty 100 Terrace/0132.25m (105'10&quot;)Gulf Craft 2025">Majesty 100 Terrace</a> benefits from the expertise of a design firm known for its fresh perspective. “We approached the project by studying what worked well on the standard Majesty 100 and what could be improved,” said Fábian Henke, Design Partner at <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/5530" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Phathom Studio (Company)">Phathom Studio</a>. “We wanted to enhance the indoor-outdoor connection, so we maximised the aft cockpit, added a forward-facing owner’s bed to extend the stateroom experience and introduced a new staircase design to increase natural light throughout all the decks.”<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/351510/image/large-cf0ab3ab6bf796b6c48a415e683db27c.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/351510">Her open-plan staircase serves as a focal point for her main saloon and dining area, providing ample light across each level from her skylight, all the way down to her lower deck.

Owners can choose between two distinct interior palettes: a light, nature-inspired theme featuring neutral tones and soft textures, or a darker, more dramatic scheme with rich contrasts and depth. Sustainable materials, such as recycled fibres in loose cushions and carpets made from reclaimed fishing nets, have also been incorporated to align with modern eco-conscious trends.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/351589/image/large-46f0b4589d31c456008fdf82d7dc5198.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/351589">“Incorporating natural elements was essential in our design philosophy,” Rajan stated. “We focused on soft, undulating surfaces, eliminating sharp corners to create a fluid, organic feel throughout. The combination of smooth edges, warm natural materials, and thoughtfully positioned lighting enhances the overall sense of tranquillity and harmony on board.”<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/351581/image/large-2d20fb5a23cfbe6b9e8b3fea2150f7ae.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/351581">Lighting has also been carefully considered, with asymmetrical spotlights casting subtle shadows to add dimension to the interiors. Hidden design details, such as mirrored reflections of water and colour-blocked cupboards, further enhance the onboard experience.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/351508/image/large-5056d8f0cbe23cbe798ee7bd796daa88.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/351508">“We also introduced soft, flowing shapes and seamless surfaces to maintain a minimalist aesthetic,” explained Raquel Grijota, Design Partner at <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/5530" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Phathom Studio (Company)">Phathom Studio</a>. “By incorporating sophisticated lighting techniques, including indirect lighting to create ambient moods, we’ve added a refined sense of depth to the interiors.

In January 2025, <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/5122" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="List General Contractor GmbH (Company)">List GC</a> announced its acquisition of a 49 percent stake in Interior PROMAN, an Austrian company that specialises in project management for yacht interiors.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/351152/image/large-fd37c2ef68095e7b3d9aeccb721c3d2d.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/351152"> SuperYacht Times spoke with Rainer Gass, Operations Manager at <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/5122" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="List General Contractor GmbH (Company)">List GC</a> and one of the Managing Directors of Interior PROMAN, to discuss the strategy behind the acquisition of equity, its impact on the operations of <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/5122" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="List General Contractor GmbH (Company)">List GC</a>, and how it enhances their project management capabilities.Could you elaborate on the strategic considerations that influenced&nbsp;<a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/5122" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="List General Contractor GmbH (Company)">List GC</a>’s decision to invest in Interior PROMAN?<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/279344/image/large-94553a8e09ce38c192a988e05794e3ea.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/279344">We have enjoyed a longstanding collaboration with Interior PROMAN, having worked together on numerous projects within the yacht new-build sector for nearly a decade. Our relationship with their team extends over 20 years, during which we've built considerable mutual expertise. When one of the former co-owners approached us about acquiring a stake in the company, our decision was straightforward. The investment aligns perfectly with our strategy to expand our capabilities, not only in project management but also in engineering. Currently, we employ around 70 engineers and project managers. With this acquisition, we will add 11 highly experienced employees to our team. Their expertise was a key factor in our decision to acquire shares and further enhance our operational capacity.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/344397/image/large-2597f7e32c82e18beec8bf87272c193b.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/344397">How does this acquisition benefit your clients in terms of innovation and customisation?The acquisition significantly benefits our clients, enhancing our capabilities in project management within the yacht industry, a field known for its complexities and stringent demands. As projects increasingly involve multiple stakeholders, tight schedules, and extensive customisation, the need for highly skilled and flexible project managers and engineers becomes critical. Our team excels in navigating these challenges, ensuring that we meet the diverse needs of our clients, whether they are shipyards, owner’s representatives, or family offices.&nbsp;By integrating more experienced professionals into our workforce, we enhance our ability to manage and collaborate effectively with designers and other key stakeholders, ultimately delivering results that align with our clients’ ambitious specifications and timelines.&nbsp;What distinguishes your company from others?<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/351267/image/large-13842a1363cd85614c5c968b92fe59f1.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/351267">Since the foundation of the company in 1950, we have been a family-owned business, and this is a source of pride for us. <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/5122" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="List General Contractor GmbH (Company)">List GC</a> is constantly being driven forward by the distinct pioneering and entrepreneurial spirit of the List family. Since the beginning as a small carpentry business until today – the List family has always stood for the combination of tradition and innovation. Today, the third generation of the family is represented in the company and assures consistency but also a continuous entrepreneurial spirit.This year, we celebrate 75 years of company history and 25 years of experience as a turn-key interior outfitter on luxury yachts. Therefore, one distinctive advantage of <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/5122" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="List General Contractor GmbH (Company)">List GC</a> is the depth of experience we bring to each project. Managing a yacht interior project, especially for the first time, is considerably more complex than other types of project management, such as residential developments. The complexity stems not only from the sophisticated materials involved but also from the need to satisfy multiple stakeholders simultaneously.Which is more challenging: managing new-build projects or refit operations? How do the skills and methods employed in these two areas complement each other within your teams?<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/351270/image/large-a5909ae19bfcdcc0a2e454d908ba985b.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/351270"> We've learned that not all project managers and teams excel in both new builds and refits, leading us to specialise our teams accordingly. Now, we have dedicated teams for each type of project, which enhances our efficiency and expertise in handling specific challenges. This specialisation allows for mutual learning; refit teams learn from the new-build teams’ structured approaches, while new-build teams gain flexibility from the refit teams.Our workplace culture is highly transparent and collaborative, resembling a large family of project managers and engineers. This environment fosters an effective exchange of information, particularly when multiple projects occur simultaneously at the same shipyard.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/351269/image/large-1ed54aef25c4ed1deb8f5e2e4013fc6c.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/351269">One reason these projects are so challenging is their uniqueness. Each project demands specific, detailed solutions, pushing us away from standardisation towards more customised approaches. This uniqueness makes each project demanding yet remarkably rewarding.What can you share regarding plans for the future?Currently, we have about 350 employees in three locations in two countries with nearly 12,000- metre squared production space, and our focus is on maintaining our revenue without overly expanding our size. At present, our strategy involves leveraging the strengths of our existing companies, including the recent addition of Interior PROMAN, but also our two subsidiaries in Germany, Cohrs Werkstätten and Riederle Werkstätten, to advance our business.A crucial aspect of our strategy, especially following our acquisition of a stake in Interior PROMAN, is to combine and strengthen competencies. This strategy involves not just maintaining but enhancing our workforce's capabilities by blending the expertise of our seasoned employees with the fresh perspectives of our new colleagues. This mix is vital for navigating potential future challenges.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/351268/image/large-2c2700256cd1b2ad22e0f2b9c121d234.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/351268">

As superyachts grow larger and more sophisticated, and their regulatory landscape becomes increasingly complex, effective yacht management enables owners to focus on enjoying their time onboard. Not all yacht management offerings, however, are created equal.&nbsp;While brokerage is the driving force for many of the large, full-spectrum yachting companies, <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/2220" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Hill Robinson (Company)">Hill Robinson</a> has maintained an acute focus on providing an industry-leading level of attention to its management fleet.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/348402/image/large-4ca47d7fe4ce0a9390b1788c74ef28ad.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/348402" 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);">Dedicated teams delivering unparalleled support&nbsp;A global leader in the industry with over two decades under its belt, <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/2220" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Hill Robinson (Company)">Hill Robinson</a> has garnered a wealth of experience in delivering in-depth and highly tailored support. The company’s management approach centres on its Client Service Team structure, designed to provide each yacht with dedicated focus and care. Consisting of five specialised team members, each Client Service Team manages a carefully weighted group of yachts, up to a maximum of five.&nbsp;As Giles Hunt, General Manager of <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/2220" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Hill Robinson (Company)">Hill Robinson</a> Europe, explains: “We keep the number of full management yachts assigned to each client service team as low as possible, rarely more than four or five, and sometimes less for much larger yachts with high volumes of crew and level of support required.”<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/348398/image/large-26f3fe85a5f6a2928eac7d35431eedf5.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/348398"><a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/2220" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Hill Robinson (Company)">Hill Robinson</a>’s Client Service Teams incorporate five integral roles. The Yacht Manager serves as the main point of contact for owners, their representatives, Captains and crew for day-to-day operations and also provides direct crew management support to assist the Crew Employer when needed, while the Compliance Manager ensures the yacht operates according to safety and regulatory standards. The Technical Manager works closely with the Chief Engineer and Chief Officer to review and plan maintenance onboard and other technical matters, and the Account Manager compiles all the yacht’s running costs and creates realistic budgets for the upcoming year in close collaboration with the Yacht Manager and heads of department (HODs). Each team also comprises an assistant to provide additional help wherever needed.Streamlined and consistent communicationThe Client Service Team structure guarantees that each yacht has tailored, proactive and hands-on support, as well as consistency in response time and familiarity with the individuals they are relying on ashore. The same dedicated team, with the same knowledge, communicates directly with the captain, owner, owner's representatives and key crew members, streamlining information flow, minimising delays and maximising efficiency. With each team sitting together and collaborating daily, nothing is lost in communication, and every issue is handled efficiently. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/348397/image/large-a20c1aece65b20d917f0ac2e2fa902ab.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/348397" 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);">“Prospective clients might think that <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/2220" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Hill Robinson (Company)">Hill Robinson</a> is too large a company to offer bespoke and detailed yacht management, but the Client Service Team structure makes our approach much more intimate and direct,” notes Giles. “The captain and HODs also have individual relationships with the relevant members of their dedicated team, creating a degree of autonomy between departments that helps prevent delays.”This personal approach is what sets <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/2220" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Hill Robinson (Company)">Hill Robinson</a> apart from other companies, with crew members regularly attesting to its standout service. “We’ve heard it time and time again from our crew that we provide an amazing level of communication, and the feeling that they can call someone they know and get the help they need from individuals with real experience,” adds Giles.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/345140/image/large-ed081235794cec685aa992454cfd9ef1.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/345140">A bespoke approach backed up by extensive expertiseWhile the company maintains a bespoke approach to yacht management, the full breadth of the company’s global resources is available when required.

This innovation pairs durability with sleek lines and an impressive 345 GT volume – a standout feature in her class. “Achieving this interior volume while preserving the yacht’s elegant exterior lines was an intense process, made possible through close collaboration with exterior designer <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/241" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="René van der Velden Yacht Design (Company)">René van der Velden</a> and naval architect <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/7" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Diana Yacht Design (Company)">Diana Yacht Design</a>,” said Nicky.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/299269/image/large-818a3710a040f9c99d60192a9b7e6f87.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/299269">While the 345 GT volume is remarkable, it’s the efficient use of space that truly stands out.

This speaks volumes about <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/130" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Moonen Yachts (Company)">Moonen</a>’s craftsmanship,” added Richard. With equipment far above market standards in both size and quality, plus integrated system redundancies, owners can rely on safe and comfortable cruising with transatlantic range.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/347979/image/large-092f1565c46ebb596cb7bb351095ccae.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/347979">YN205 is also designed for dual use on either side of the Atlantic, with a converter for the shore power input for both US and European standards and US and European power outlets throughout the entire yacht. Added bollards and fairleads for side mooring further cater to the US market, where side mooring is more common than in the Mediterranean.Dutch craftsmanship“While many manufacturers charge extra for commercial compliance and worldwide power, this is one example of many that <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/130" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Moonen Yachts (Company)">Moonen</a> includes as standard, setting the Martinique apart as a comprehensive package,” said Matthew. “Very few yachts in this size segment offer such an impressive range and commercial cruising registry. It’s far easier to remove a yacht from commercial compliance than to reinstate it, giving this yacht a significant advantage,” he added.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/347980/image/large-985238f681dd7baa734c2fb08fa57dcf.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/347980">Another highlight is the two-year global shipyard warranty, double the industry standard for this size range. “This shows the confidence <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/130" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Moonen Yachts (Company)">Moonen</a> has in the quality of their yachts,” said Richard. “Yachts need to be used and tested, as many issues don’t surface in the first year,” explained Nicky, adding: “With only two yachts built annually, our craftsmen know each vessel inside and out. We can fly anywhere in the world to handle minor adjustments quickly and effectively.”“Buying a yacht is an emotional decision – you’re investing in a dream and a lifestyle,” said Matthew. "<a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/130" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Moonen Yachts (Company)">Moonen</a> ensures the yacht is always ready when it matters.

The former yacht owner and Formula 1 team boss Eddie Jordan has died at age 76. A statement made by Jordan’s family on Thursday morning revealed that he had passed away in his Cape Town home following a cancer diagnosis in December 2024. The Irishman was the owner of several yachts, including the 45.6-metre <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/51" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Perini Navi (Company)">Perini Navi</a> sailing yacht Blush (now named <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/43" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Mare Nostrum45.26m (148'6&quot;)Perini Navi2007">Mare Nostrum</a>) during his lifetime.&nbsp;As a former driver himself, the businessman won the Irish kart championship in 1971 but suffered an accident in Formula 3 in 1976, before transitioning to team ownership in the year 1979. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/353276/image/large-df8254dd787bb5de9005e52062fe4b28.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/353276">While his Eddie Jordan Racing team started with 12 people in 1987, it eventually amounted to 50 members once Jordan took part in F1 in 1991. Jordan enlisted engineer Gary Anderson to design their first F1 car, the 191, which still remains to this day.The CEO of F1 Stefano Domenicali commented: “We are deeply saddened to hear about the sudden loss of Eddie Jordan. With his inexhaustible energy he always knew how to make people smile, remaining genuine and brilliant at all times. Eddie has been a protagonist of an era of F1 and he will be deeply missed. In this moment of sorrow, my thoughts and those of the entire Formula One family are with his family and loved ones.”F1’s governing body, the FIA, echoed a similar sentiment, stating: “Eddie Jordan was a legend of Formula One. He made an invaluable contribution to global motor sport throughout his life. All of us at the FIA would like to send our deepest condolences to his family and friends at this very difficult time. Eddie will always be remembered as a great sportsman and passionate ambassador for Formula One on and off the track.”

"<a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/130" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Moonen Yachts (Company)">Moonen</a> gave us the creative freedom to propose an original interior concept for this popular series yacht, which felt like an ideal opportunity to celebrate the strength and vision of our shared Dutch heritage,” explained <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/15" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Vripack (Company)">Vripack</a> co-creative director, Marnix Hoekstra. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/353254/image/large-b4d5ec8e5a62ef4dd1abbd818e4c8724.png" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/353254">“At <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/15" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Vripack (Company)">Vripack</a>, we believe that interior design is more than just aesthetics - it’s a deeply personal experience. With a meticulous approach and a passion for creativity, we’ve infused the interior of YN206 with a unique vision and a touch of Dutch pride. Each step of the process is a journey, transforming inspiration into a beautiful reality crafted just for you,” added Hoekstra.At a volume of 345 GT, the vessel is able to sleep as many as 12 guests across a five stateroom configuration, while further accommodation is available to support a crew of up to seven members. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/353260/image/large-205dd59a67fb76fefae11db161fcd131.png" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/353260"><img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/353261/image/large-70f696c82bab2559250b72c8e693d992.png" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/353261">Among the yacht’s most standout amenities is her full-beam owner’s suite located on the main deck, which spans 37-square-metres and boasts forward-facing windows with 180-degree views. Remaining guests are hosted in two VIP ensuite staterooms and two additional staterooms on the lower deck. The main deck is also home to an expansive galley and pantry for dining.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/353257/image/large-c6d9785772fef7abcb8dd1bbb9ed48f7.png" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/353257">In terms of its decor, the owner’s suite is embellished with White Emperador marble walls, ash bleached oak floors and Belvedere quartzite basins in the ensuite bathroom. A detail that differentiates the eight Moonen Martinique from previous models is the aft-facing king-size bed. “It seems like a minor detail to flip the position of the bed, yet this gives owners clear sight lines out to sea when they wake rather than looking onto the bow which impedes the view,” Hoekstra shared.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/353258/image/large-df2d8f704170e872b4f0e82cd1b780ca.png" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/353258">At the heart of the yacht’s design are three materials: wood, leather and brass, which are married to a warm mid-century colour scheme of light taupe and grey. Inside the main saloon is an antique bronze mirrored ceiling referencing 17th century Dutch architecture, while several shades of blue and a Delftware-inspired mural on the dining room wall are also a nod to the Netherlands. As Hoekstra said, “The white and blue of Dutch Delftware porcelain is iconic and instantly recognisable.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/353253/image/large-1ba4908b1bfa504a6c33f8526414f5e4.png" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/353253">We used hand sketching techniques combined with artificial intelligence to create a scene that is rich with feeling, from the lush forests and deep bodies of water that we have in Holland, to the bird in flight which could be interpreted as the project’s namesake Moonbird.”<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/353273/image/large-969bee81fa2b100d1d41612878472758.png" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/353273">As for the ripped upper section of the mural, Hoekstra elaborated: “We didn’t want to make it neat and square but highlight the quirkiness of Dutch design by ripping the corner off. It's been made using revolutionary software, but guests are free to imagine the rest themselves. That itself is very Dutch.”<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/353275/image/large-11bc7f2d1ef76ba86a17cf0694da4d2f.png" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/353275">Moving to the main deck lobby where a central staircase connects all three decks, here the glossy turquoise walls are paired with light taupe treads, a second mirrored ceiling and antique bronze finishes.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/353274/image/large-21f8085a7430504317fcdb2de8dbb137.png" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/353274">The 17th century motifs extend to the yacht’s sky lounge, which offers a framed TVabove a bioethanol fireplace with a cream marble surround.

Additional alfresco entertainment can be found in the sundeck’s bar area or optional custom whirlpool, while a Portuguese bridge sofa arrangement offering far-reaching vistas can be found forward of the wheelhouse.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/353250/image/large-d3ed3a66d6874c7fb09976b1b5e396c6.png" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/353250"><img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/353252/image/large-a1ad4842777362b0a4282840266a2861.png" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/353252"><img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/353251/image/large-5a6619c75ac72c4c6d3ca01b56c95b99.png" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/353251">Regarding her performance, the <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/130" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Moonen Yachts (Company)">Moonen</a> 112 Martinique yacht is powered by twin <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/1408" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Caterpillar Inc (Company)">Caterpillar</a> engines that propel her to a cruising speed of 14.5 knots and a top speed of 17 knots.

A closer look at the 85m Benetti superyacht Project Life

Salvatore Canzoneri has shared the renderings and details of Kossyra, a 67-metre island-inspired superyacht concept. The up-and-coming yacht designer made it to the finals of the Young Designer of the Year 2024 awards, in partnership with <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/29" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Feadship (Company)">Feadship</a>, with his design. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/353182/image/large-cb1914a21320cc52b4ab8cc0a2f7712e.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/353182">Described by her designer as “a floating sanctuary that captures the essence of the Mediterranean,” Kossyra is christened after the Pantelleria, an island in Italy formerly known as Cossyra. By embodying the tranquil spirit of island living, this yacht design aims to offer a refuge from the hustle and bustle of modern city life. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/353183/image/large-626a1e89c236cb2cf429c2dbb0561a78.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/353183">From an outside perspective, the sleek, sculpted lines that encapsulate Kossyra’s exterior silhouette are a nod to Pantelleria’s fecund landscape which is dictated by mistral breezes, while also referencing the domed Dammuso rooftops that are characteristic of the island. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/353184/image/large-42dacc286ece7b69e0d45bfbae3001dc.png" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/353184">When it comes to her interiors, Kossyra’s indoor living areas are defined by peace, minimalism and simplicity, with soft, organic curves enhancing the sense of continuity between various spaces. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/353181/image/large-fccb4ec806ff4a3ccd16a46952c8f5ed.png" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/353181">Furthermore, the interiors are decked out in double-eight ceilings for an aerial spaciousness, while a number of locations merge the indoor and outdoor areas for more immersion with the surrounding maritime backdrop.One of Kossyra’s highlights is her beach club displaying a cave-like design for a closer connection to the natural elements and simultaneous sheltering. Those onboard are also invited to catch rays on the sunpads found on the main deck aft, or dine alfresco at a circular table located on the deck above, which also boasts a pool in the bow. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/353180/image/large-cf1407f7d3a91bfdcc1bb69623e46344.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/353180">On the same deck, is a forward-facing owner’s stateroom complete with an office and an ensuite bathroom including a bathtub. Meanwhile, Kossyra’s main deck is home to three double staterooms and a VIP suite for hosting the remaining guests. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/353185/image/large-f6435fb5f02eb638cf2b4ac4f0ff8a24.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/353185">“More than a yacht, Kossyra is a reflection of a way of life - where design, nature, and innovation come together to create a place of refuge and renewal. It is a vessel for those seeking to disconnect from the noise of the world and reconnect with the timeless beauty of the Mediterranean,” Canzoneri concluded.&nbsp;
