(Company)">Baglietto</a> has launched the first unit in its 60-metre T60 series at its shipyard in La Spezia, marking the largest superyacht ever built by the Italian yard. SuperYacht Times was in attendance at the launch.She features exterior design by <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/586" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Francesco Paszkowski (Company)">Francesco Paszkowski Design</a>, with interiors by the same studio in collaboration with <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/6365" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Margherita Casprini (Company)">Margherita Casprini</a>.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/389093/image/large-f98e63a5d00ecec955d8363224bdd864.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/389093">At approximately 1,100GT, the T60 series builds on the <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/375" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Baglietto S.p.A. (Company)">Baglietto</a> T52 platform, combining a revised exterior profile with a layout optimising &nbsp;the connection between the yacht’s interior and exterior spaces.Her exterior, characterised by soft lines and lighter-looking side structures integrated into the overhangs, is further defined by a continuous black glass band that incorporates the portholes, a feature seen across several of the yard’s recent projects.A key aspect of the yacht’s layout is the effort to create a closer relationship between the interior and exterior spaces. Full-height glazing in the main saloon and upper deck can be opened almost entirely, allowing these areas to connect more directly with the sea and their surroundings. This gives the principal living spaces greater flexibility throughout the day, shifting from open-plan daytime areas to more private settings in the evening.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/389089/image/large-db92c3a864575390853da4b6bf32105f.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/389089">The beach club, main saloon and dining area have been configured as a connected, multi-level space focused on waterside living. The beach club spans around 60 square-metres and includes a pool, bar, lounge area and gym. It connects to the main saloon via an open staircase, while the adjoining dining space features a glass wall that can be opened fully, extending the overall living area at the stern.One of the yacht’s more distinctive features is the arrangement of the upper deck, which has been reserved entirely for the owner. This private deck includes the owner’s suite, office, dressing area and bathroom, as well as direct access to an outdoor pool forward. Aft, a lounge and dining area open onto the exterior through retractable glass doors, with a Jacuzzi and sunpad area completing the deck.Guest accommodation comprises four guest suites on the main deck, including two VIP suites, while a fifth guest suite is located on the lower deck. The lower deck also houses a massage room, the main galley and crew quarters, with accommodation for up to 13 crew across seven cabins. Technical and service areas are located on the under-lower deck, including storage spaces, a wine cellar, luggage storage and refrigerated rooms.The wheelhouse is positioned on the sun deck, alongside the captain’s cabin, an additional dining area and exterior lounging spaces forward and aft. On the main deck forward, the garage is designed to accommodate a 23-foot tender, two Jet Skis and a rescue tender, while a touch-and-go helipad is also located in the bow area.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/389093/image/large-f98e63a5d00ecec955d8363224bdd864.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/389093">Commenting on the launch, <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/375" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Baglietto S.p.A.

The SuperYacht Times Synopsis looks back over the year for a rundown of the top business stories from 2022.  

SYT Synopsis 2022: Major acquisitions, five 100m+ superyachts delivered, and around €6b worth of sales

<a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/375" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Baglietto S.p.A. (Company)">Baglietto</a> has just announced the sale of the first 60-metre Baglietto T60. The sale follows only three days behind the sale of the eighth 52-metre T52 superyacht marking a fantastic end to the year for the Italian shipyard. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/243402/image/large-9828cf44c97d08747e3c8ada87c2e1ca.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/243402">The T60 superyacht was first introduced as a concept at the Monaco Yacht Show in October. She features exterior design from <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/586" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Francesco Paszkowski (Company)">Francesco Paszkowski</a> and is an larger evolution of the T52 model. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/252484/image/large-dbcb67e0a2d18d2b2902c65fcdca81a9.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/252484">"It is difficult to hide the great sense of pride we feel for securing this sale," commented <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/375" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Baglietto S.p.A. (Company)">Baglietto</a> CCO Fabio Ermetto, "not only because it comes just 3 months after the project was introduced to the public and as the culmination of an extraordinary year, but above all because it confirms the appropriateness of the creative choices pursued by the shipyard together with designer <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/586" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Francesco Paszkowski (Company)">Francesco Paszkowski</a>. This model, I believe, has all the features the market is looking for today, but it also opens new horizons for the recreational boating industry, by implementing highly innovative, unprecedented onboard solutions. Indeed, the T60 radically changes the concept of life at sea, overturning long-established rules that juxtapose sea and land, interiors and exteriors, formal and informal, day areas and night areas".<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/243403/image/large-5dc17b6ce2fce171a9f4a43e29ad9ef2.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/243403">Hull 10260 will have interiors pencilled by <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/586" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Francesco Paszkowski (Company)">Francesco Paszkowski Design</a> in cooperation with <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/6365" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Margherita Casprini (Company)">Margherita Casprini</a> and is scheduled for delivery in 2026.

This time, however, I think it is fair to highlight what <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/375" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Baglietto S.p.A. (Company)">Baglietto</a> has been able to accomplish in 2022, a year that is represented at best by the sale of this T60: 9 yachts between 41 m and 60 m in length sold, 22 boats under construction, 3 new models delivered, 3 new sales offices opened around the world, €13 million invested in the La Spezia and Carrara facilities, and the launch of Bertram's European division, with the sale of the first unit. Behind all this stands a whole organisation, but, first and foremost, are the passion and pride of so many people involved. The T60 starts a new chapter in the Seagull brand's extraordinary history, and marks the beginning of a new era".

Her exterior draws inspiration from the shipyard’s incredibly successful T52 yacht, which has already secured six orders before the first hull has even been launched.The T60 superyacht is characterised by the soft exterior lines of her predecessor with a sleeker design, thanks to the lighter side buttresses that almost seem to be ‘hanging’ on the water. Her modern and contemporary design also sees a black glass stripe incorporating the portholes, creating a streamlined profile.The new design throws convention out the window when it comes to her interior layout. According to the shipyard “the floor-to-ceiling windows of both the main saloon and the upper deck open up completely and, once fully concealed, create new, ever-changing environments that harmonise with the surrounding landscape.”<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/243404/image/large-20c49cd65adcc4cd77a71f48adf18302.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/243404">The yacht T60 has an open plan saloon and dining area to create one single free-flowing space.
