An overseas relation placed an order for a new Jongert 24M within a month after the restart of the yard run by the new management. The sailing yacht will be completed and delivered early 2010. There is no lack of interest for these top of the line products. The present orderbook also comprising two refits and two yachts yet to be completed for shareholder VeKa signifies a flying (re)start for the yard. <img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/128606/image/large-ecd88cf7c755f4d0f0c59d33cb8029e9.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/128606">Problems from the past “Jachtwerf Jongert had a number of problems” , says a spokesman for the syndicate which took over the yard. ”The organisation had 150 employees on the payroll. This in combination with the high investments in Europe’s most modern yacht shipyard , because that is what Jongert is beyond any doubt, meant the financial burden became too heavy. Jongert ’s suppliers were reluctant to cooperate and potential customers were put off on account of Jongert ‘s weak financial reputation over the last ten years . This all led to the bankruptcy of the company.“ The take over A syndicate consisting of the VeKa Group, Werkina Werkendam and DHVG Schiedam took over the business. Each of the three parties has its own specialism. VeKa Group is specialized in the development, construction and completion of inland craft and ocean-going vessels. Werkina is leading in the field of maritime electrotechnical engineering .DHVG invests in real estate and develops high-quality real estate projects. The new shareholders all have a very sound financial base, which is of the utmost importance for Jongert’s future. Thus it is no longer necessary to have any doubts about Jongert’s financial position now or in the future. In combination with the professional skill of the workforce and the flexibility of the costs it will constitute the base for a very successful operation. The future During the negotiations the present management already started up the commercial activities. Current leads were followed up leading not only to the new order but also to enquiries for refitting of yachts with a length ranging from 40 to 55 metres. There are also discussions going on with a number of potential customers for new projects. The skill and dedication of the workforce is an all-important matter to be able to realize the present and future orders. Everything will be done to keep the highly skilled workers and craftsmen, who previously worked for Jongert. It is expected that within a not too distant future the number of people working for Jongert will exceed the 150 men who previously worked there. Jongert has three assembly halls of 60 by 25 metres with a workable height of 18 metres. Since these halls can simply be extended up to 100 metres, there is no limitation at all for the yard within the range of the present super yachts. Furthermore there are three floors of 60 by 25 metres having a metalworking shop (including aluminium and stainless steel) an electronic workshop, a carpenter’s workshop and a spray paint workshop for the interior. Focus on sailing yachts Traditionally the emphasis of the shipyard will be on the development and construction of sailing yachts and this will be its main activity. Jongert has always been top of the line as far as sailing yachts are concerned . However, Jongert will not forget its customers, who sometimes desire the comfort and ease of a motor yacht. The motor yacht line is available and will be extended in addition to and not in place of the sailing yachts. Refitting will also be one of the activities.

First look: 30m Ferrari Hypersail racing yacht in-build

Baltic Yachts has unveiled the fourth and latest Baltic 78 Custom, a 23.99-meter-long-distance performance cruising yacht currently in-build for delivery in summer 2027.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/394669/image/large-612a71aabd6dd0c872902c82d4a742eb.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/394669">Commissioned for an experienced family with ambitious cruising plans, the custom sailing yacht has been conceived for exploration throughout the Mediterranean and Caribbean waters, &nbsp;balancing comfort and safety during long voyages with high-performance sailing.Naval architecture for the yacht is crafted by <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/328" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Judel / Vrolijk & co (Company)">Judel / Vrolijk &amp; co</a> while interiors are being designed by <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/329" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Design Unlimited (Company)">Design Unlimited</a>, whose previous collaborations with <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/327" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Baltic Yachts (Company)">Baltic Yachts</a> include the Baltic 175&nbsp;<a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/3921" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Charis29.65m (97'3&quot;)Baltic Yachts1999">Charis</a>&nbsp;and Baltic 108 <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/4749" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="WinWin33.04m (108'5&quot;)Baltic Yachts2014">WinWin</a>. Discussions surrounding the project began in late 2025, according to the Finnish shipyard.The yacht is being built around <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/327" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Baltic Yachts (Company)">Baltic Yachts</a>’ expertise in lightweight composite materials. The goal is to create a boat that is capable of bluewater, easy to manage, with a generous interior volume, all while offering high sailing performance.A semi-fixed bimini has been added into the design to provide protection from the weather while also assisting with mainsail handling during stowage. The yacht will also feature a lifting keel configuration, which allows for good performance when sailing offshore and makes it easier to access shallower bays and anchorages.Autonomy was a key pillar of the design process. The yacht is equipped with a substantial battery bank aiming to support extended periods of silent operation at anchor, allowing owners to enjoy the serenity of long-distance cruising without the hum of machinery.The Baltic 78 Custom has an overall beam of 6.27-metres, a draught ranging from 2.8 to 4.15-metres, and a light displacement of 42 tonnes.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/394408/image/large-464bd2ae0ad469a50c322fb36b4c7fa7.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/394408">The yacht joins a growing construction portfolio at <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/327" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Baltic Yachts (Company)">Baltic Yachts</a>, which recently launched the 37-metre <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/327" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Baltic Yachts (Company)">Baltic</a> 121 Custom from its Jakobstad facility.

In addition, the yacht’s indoor and outdoor areas are seamlessly connected thanks to her full-height windows and Baglietto’s signature “cut-out” bulwarks, which strengthen connection to the sea.On her upper deck, a veranda that opens on three sides hosts a panoramic dining room, while her foredeck features a lounge area, sunpads and a Jacuzzi located at the bow. Moreover, a rooftop, rare for yachts of her category, serves as a private retreat where guests can dine, lounge, and relax.Furthermore, a stern garage with a flooding launch system is capable of accommodating a tender up to seven-metres, alongside a second garage forward.The yacht's interiors have been designed to complement the exterior design. Lacquered surfaces, experimental woods such as burnt oak, and artistic lighting all harmoniously contribute to her contemporary design profile. Lightweight materials were favoured over heavier marble and natural stone to support the yacht's high-performance credentials, with even the exterior handrails crafted from titanium to optimise weight.Unlike many of the shipyard’s earlier fast yachts, the <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/13932" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Baglietto Fast 50/0149.9m (163'9&quot;)Baglietto S.p.A.2026">FAST50 yacht</a> has been developed across three full decks, featuring a wide-body owner's suite on the main deck.&nbsp;At an interior volume of 499 GT, accommodation onboard is arranged across four staterooms, including two VIP staterooms and two twin staterooms on the lower deck, all with en-suite facilities. Crew accommodation comprises four dedicated quarters, captain's quarters and a spacious crew mess.In terms of performance, the yacht is powered by four <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/1409" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="MTU (Company)">MTU</a> engines, which are expected to deliver a top speed of 30 knots.&nbsp;

Italian designer <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/5522" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Marco Ferrari (Company)">Marco Ferrari</a> has revealed a new 80-metre superyacht concept known as M80, featuring hybrid electric propulsion and an Ice Class 1D hull designed for expeditions into remote and high-latitude waters.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/395711/image/large-5e2bb926c4e68013000d72b0f1317676.png" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/395711" 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;">Constructed entirely in aluminium, M80 has been conceived as a modern explorer yacht that boasts a lightweight hull and superstructure, with a low-profile silhouette and a focus on energy efficiency.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/395733/image/large-1a9a4714cf0993822813cc29e30e09d9.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/395733">The M80 is designed for owners who seek adventure, spanning from tropical paradises to the icy frontiers of polar and sub-polar regions.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/395719/image/large-b84e3131fde03314cc27569f8e7f4f80.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/395719">At the heart of her design is a diesel-electric hybrid propulsion system, elevated by twin Azipod contra-rotating thrusters and dynamic positioning capability. 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. Meanwhile, Boost Mode combines diesel and electric power to maximise performance when required.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/395731/image/large-33077a8f7a2790cde018026b550701fa.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/395731">Among its unique features, the M80 boasts an underwater “Nemo Lounge, giving guests a view into the ocean’s depths. In addition, an extensive array of tenders and toys supports exploration and adventure, including two 11-metre tenders, Jet Skis, aerial UAVs and remotely operated underwater vehicles for subaquatic discovery.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/395710/image/large-a74c0ecaa984d5a5b600f8054b710e24.png" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/395710">The concept also incorporates a range of sustainability-focused technologies, including glass elements with integrated photovoltaics, advanced heat‑recovery systems and compatibility with HVO biofuel, which the designers say can cut emissions by up to 90 percent compared with conventional marine diesel.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/395728/image/large-811c3e2ad5d43adb8b3999943f2c3651.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/395728">Outside, M80 is characterised by angular lines, tiered deck arrangements and a continuous band of dark glazing that stretches through most of her superstructure.

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.

27m Sanlorenzo yacht Blue Zone for sale

The 26.7m Sanlorenzo motor yacht Blue Zone, from the SX88 series, has been listed for sale with Northrop & Johnson.

As the yachting industry begins to take alternative fuels seriously, Heikki Bergman, CEO and design manager of start-up company <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/8768" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Propulsion House (Company)">Propulsion House</a>, is several steps ahead. His company has developed a compact, modular methanol-electric propulsion system for yachts up to 70 metres that challenges the big marine technology brands.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/390298/image/large-6f876876617a86ea1297b4c7d5007042.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/390298">Drawing on more than two decades of experience in marine electrical propulsion, Heikki Bergman brings an engineering-driven approach to hybrid systems, with a sharp focus on real-world viability, space efficiency, and the practical constraints of small and mid-size vessels.“There’s good will in the market,” he says, “but not many customers or shipyards truly understand what they’re buying when it comes to electric or alternative-fuel systems. That’s where things often fall apart.”Now, Bergman and his team have unveiled a hybrid system he claims is capable of delivering over 5,000 nautical miles of range using methanol reformers, hydrogen fuel cells, batteries, and lightweight electric pod propulsion – all within the general arrangement footprint of an existing 45-metre, steel-hulled explorer hull designed by Frank Neubelt.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/390299/image/large-087f0ae7e1a2668b35e761bf7c22a0db.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/390299">Scaling downBergman’s journey began at <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/6143" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="ABB Group (Company)">ABB</a>, the Finnish leader in electrification and automation technology, where he worked on large commercial projects across Europe, particularly in the passenger vessel segment. In 2015, he identified a knowledge gap in the smaller vessel markets: while electrical and hybrid systems were becoming standard on larger ships, few people understood how to scale them down effectively for smaller yachts.&nbsp;"The big players don’t cater well to anything below 1 megawatt per propeller," he explains. "They come with massive project organisations and million-euro tickets, which just doesn’t work for yachts below 70 metres. We start from seven horsepower, up to 600 kilowatt."He founded <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/8768" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Propulsion House (Company)">Propulsion House</a> in 2017 as a consultancy, but it quickly evolved into a product development company. The firm now works across multiple sectors – including oil and gas – but yachting remains a core focus. The team doubled in size last year and is expected to grow again in 2026.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/390300/image/large-701d98e76c4b8100d4437b449c0de308.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/390300">Time to RethinkThe in-house propulsion system is a methanol-electric hybrid setup using the existing 45-metre explorer hull as a baseline that began with the team asking a simple but critical question: could a vessel of this size achieve 5,000 nautical miles of range using alternative fuels, without compromising usable interior volume? The answer: Yes, by completely rethinking how propulsion integrates with vessel design.At the heart of the system is the trademarked DeeCee Microgrid – a methanol-fuel-cell architecture designed for endurance, redundancy and modular installation. The system includes: six methanol reformers, which convert a methanol/water mixture into hydrogen and CO₂; six 200 kilowatt hydrogen fuel cells, fed by the reformers to generate electricity; and two 600 kilowatt battery banks, offering load balancing, peak shaving, and full-electric operation in port or during silent cruising.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/390301/image/large-09f5baddc586600638d912e42f93dd0f.png" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/390301">All the system components – fuel cells, batteries, converters – are already commercially available. Combined, they enable propulsion via two 600 kilowatt electric pods, with no shaft lines or central switchboards. Instead, the vessel uses a distributed DC network through localised electrical control units – each managing its zone independently and able to switch within milliseconds in case of blackout.“We’ve eliminated the need for a switchboard room altogether,” says Bergman. “This frees up interior volume, reduces cabling, and improves safety and redundancy.”The reforming process produces a controlled volume of CO₂, which the system can capture and store onboard for recycling. The volume of this captured CO₂ is significantly lower than from internal combustion engines – about 40-60 percent less than a diesel generator. Moreover, when taking into production methods of green methanol and e-methanol, some of which actually consume CO2 rather than release it into the air, the overall CO2 emission reduction is even higher.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/390305/image/large-8b7413485de1c405fa96aac8b215fe00.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/390305">Small, Light &amp; SmartPerhaps the most radical part of the concept is the proprietary Pulling-e Propulsion pod design. It resembles a torpedo: long, narrow, and hollow, with a stationary internal body, an outer rotating propeller shell and a 2-bladed propeller offering a good balance of efficiency and drag. Containing a permanent magnet synchronous motor and scalable from 7-600 kilowatt per propeller, there is no shaft, no gearbox, and minimal mechanical complexity. The pod can be steerable for shallow water use, or fixed with a rudder integrated into the strut that connects it to the hull.&nbsp;The unit is designed to be modular and installation-agnostic. It can be fixed horizontally to the hull, retrofitted into an old rudder socket, or even fitted with lift-enhancing struts to improve hydrodynamic flow. Unlike traditional azimuthing thrusters, which rotate 360 degrees, the pods limit steering angles but compensates via bi-directional rotation. The result is full-vector thrust control, achieved with a simpler, lighter system.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/390304/image/large-1e7154665ec390b5c89b7ed5b892f2e1.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/390304">This method also benefits noise reduction. The methanol-electric propulsion is already quiet, so the remaining main source of noise is from propeller-generated pressure pulses hitting the hull. The propellers, positioned far aft as far outboard as possible away from the hull, significantly reduce this underwater radiated noise—a growing concern for marine ecosystems.The concept isn’t just theoretical. Cambridge University’s Energy boat challenge team recognised the potential and <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/8768" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Propulsion House (Company)">Propulsion House</a> has been working with Marin’s top designers on the propeller optimisation, using a 15-kilowatt test unit to refine efficiency. The propellers were optimised using PropArt and PROCAL computations. A speed-power prediction based on the resistance was provided, and additional analysis was carried out in terms of steering forces and cavitation behaviour.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/390303/image/large-fe5f36bdbe69c88da2bda09491ac7329.png" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/390303">“We achieved 89 percent propeller efficiency – among the highest on the market,” says Bergman. “And when we scale up to the size used on yachts, efficiency actually increases due to the larger central hole in the propeller. And that’s just the first iteration available.”The system is also suited for retrofits. In theory at least, shaft lines could be removed entirely and the new propulsion unit installed into the existing rudder sockets, reducing the need for invasive hull perforations. The structural load is carried in a way similar to rudder mechanics, with reinforcement achieved by increasing material thickness inside the torpedo's cooling pipe. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/390302/image/large-279388f3d090554f024470e1514e9ec4.png" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/390302">A New Design OrderPerhaps most radical is the company’s approach to vessel design itself. “We start from the underwater section,” Bergman explains. “First the hull, then the propeller location, and then everything else. Not the other way around.”This inverted design process contrasts with the traditional method of selecting off-the-shelf propulsion systems first, which often forces compromises in hull shape, hydrodynamics and interior layout.With partners already on board for further testing in 2026, and interest growing among shipyards and owners, <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/8768" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Propulsion House (Company)">Propulsion House</a> is positioning itself not just as a technology provider, but as a strategic design partner. By simplifying systems, reducing space usage, offering real redundancy, and embracing cleaner fuels, Bergman believes a better class of hybrid yacht is not only possible – it’s ready to build. “There’s no fantasy here,” says Bergman. “This could be built tomorrow.”&nbsp;
