Composed of steel, the yacht boasts extensive windows designed to bathe her interiors with natural light and simultaneously sheltering the indoors from the direct sun.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/353189/image/large-59650dddeed4eb34e29a488727bd243a.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/353189">Sebastiano Vida, head of Product <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/212" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Benetti SpA (Company)">Benetti</a> commented: “With Project Life, our goal was to provide varied experiences on each deck, emphasizing social interaction through convivial layouts and versatile gathering areas, all framed by the ocean. To bring our vision to life, we broadened our collaborations with some of the world’s top designers and partnered with industry leaders like <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/159" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Burgess (Company)">Burgess</a>, and we are extremely proud of the result we have accomplished.”<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/353188/image/large-afcaec94b6f8c80a43de8bccbd839168.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/353188">A notable feature onboard the superyacht is her 270-square-metre beach club, which is the product of a collaboration between <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/82" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Espen Øino International (Company)">Espen Øino International</a> and <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/67" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Zuretti Interior Design (Company)">Zuretti Design</a>.

From above, the beach club is illuminated by a glass-bottomed swimming pool with sunlight streaming through it for a maritime-themed atmosphere. Moving to the main deck, an 18-square-metre, one-metre deep swimming pool is accompanied by a bar and lounge area for guests to relax and socialise.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/353200/image/large-76642613cf99e955661bc8518f22ce6c.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/353200">According to designer <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/82" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Espen Øino International (Company)">Espen Øino</a>, “The primary concept behind Project Life was to put forward life itself and life close to the water.

Spanning 112-square-metres, the main saloon is decked out in floor-to-ceiling windows for a connection to the outdoors and a lighting system intended to facilitate leisurely ambiances. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/353198/image/large-4bd2bb9fe43353fe82468d0072a04af8.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/353198">Located in the forward section of the main deck are six guest staterooms featuring expansive windows for natural lighting combined with scenic vantage points. Project Life’s 98-square-metre owner’s suite has a versatile room situated next to it, which can serve as a private office or a space dedicated to the owner’s hobbies, for example. The owner’s area transitions to the sky lounge, a glass-enclosed hub fitted with sofas for those onboard to take in the sounds and vision of the aquatic surroundings.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/353197/image/large-e33be7261e4903fd90ddad7f84c18e3f.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/353197">“Project Life is a new vision for new owners,” stated Sebastien Gey, CEO of <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/67" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Zuretti Interior Design (Company)">Zuretti Design</a>. “We tried to soften the boundaries between the interior and exterior – or make them disappear completely. We used very organic shapes to create this continuity but also to have this mood of being inside a cocoon. We put all our experience into bringing Project Life to another level of luxury.”<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/353196/image/large-ae36b92d23f2dfffe17ac2b30edee709.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/353196">From the upper foredeck, guests can observe unobstructed 270-degree panoramic views of the outdoors, while the deck is also home to a helipad, a secluded Jacuzzi and lounge areas for further alfresco entertainment.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/353199/image/large-6973967d7c8518694efce09e8e3d17c4.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/353199">When it comes to Project Life’s bridge deck aft, this section functions as an alfresco dining space for gatherings both intimate and large, furnished with seating arrangements that are sheltered from the natural elements. A highlight here is the live-cooking setup showcased across two dedicated outdoor stations for guests to interact with the chef. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/353190/image/large-14efeb1ea3c63be40f55c6ac2150939b.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/353190">“We decided to present these latest updates on Project Life during the <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Event/267" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Palm Beach International Boat Show - 2025">Palm Beach International Boat Show</a> recognising the Americas as a key strategic market for <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/212" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Benetti SpA (Company)">Benetti</a>.

In addition, her system is developed to operate on both diesel and non-fossil fuels including HVO. By using an advanced, direct expansion HVAC system, energy consumption is reduced by up to 60 percent, while solar panels integrated into the vessel’s superstructure are aimed to generate clean energy and help recharge her electric tenders and water toys.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/353195/image/large-6e50e7fc04ab2cb6289d74156a614afc.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/353195">“Increasingly clients are concerned with the holistic yacht design, not only does it need to look great and have a layout than enables a fantastic lifestyle onboard but decisions taken need to be environmentally conscious, the crew operation must be safe, smooth and efficient as well as technical redundancy and resilience needing to be seamlessly integrated into the platform. This holistic aesthetic, operational and technical design approach has been a cornerstone of Project Life since its inception,” concluded Ed Beckett, Senior Partner, <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/159" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Burgess (Company)">Burgess</a>.

New details and renderings of the 80-metre superyacht concept Ardour, <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/64" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Oceanco (Company)">Oceanco’</a>s new addition to their Simply Custom series, have been unveiled. Stemming from the drawboards of the designer Demetrius Tănase Yacht Design,&nbsp;Ardour’s design philosophy strives to exude the same passion and enthusiasm as her name suggests. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/336501/image/large-a7e63b156f896656e3721ea0b52092fb.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/336501"><img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/336504/image/large-ae499ca3270fea606fb4052a1383d46f.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/336504">According to Tănase, “Ardour brings together passion, craftsmanship and modern design principles to create an unparalleled yachting experience.” <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/64" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Oceanco (Company)">Oceanco</a>’s Simply Custom platform allows yachts to be customised to suit owners’ needs, building upon their existing technical foundation, which includes all-electric propulsion and energy architecture. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/354790/image/large-8ff1ecefb09dcccd5df58ea4d115991a.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/354790">In the case of the superyacht Ardour, every detail draws inspiration from “emotion,” Tănase explained.

By keeping this area separate from the yacht’s gross tonnage, the main deck terrace can be extended to an impressive 11 metres, providing more space for guests to enjoy. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/354749/image/large-20f90556fa0a3a12db3ad958a9335730.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/354749">Elacca also introduces a unique approach to tender storage.
