We recently had superyacht designer Pieter van Geest of Van Geest Design in our office, explaining to us more about his latest superyacht concept, the VGD 80m. Sleek lines give this 80 metre a clean impression, resulting in straight forward engineering, keeping it simple to build. <img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/136007/image/large-ed8f1559880e7eafbfa3e0dac71f5d2f.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/136007">The 80 metre design study focuses on a pure, non cluttered image and lifestyle, persuing an ultimate interior / exterior interaction on board. The yacht features a 320 m2 owners deck on top, including a private saloon with panoramic windows facilitating a true outside-in lounging experience. <img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/136008/image/large-4262bcfa36b0ddba8c872515c51ab8cf.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/136008"> <img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/136009/image/large-1e581d47f50f46cdfd5b51a49f253f92.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/136009">The bridge deck is located one deck lower, and features helicopter landing facilities forward. Behind the bridge area the main salon and guest entertaining areas. The main deck below houses another salon as well as all the guest cabins. Each guest stateroom benefits from large windows, offering a beautiful vista even from the bathrooms. On the aft deck Pieter created a large infinity swimming pool that extends over the transom. <img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/136010/image/large-38b10f0b692b606726981a9810619ea8.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/136010">The lower deck is dedicated to a large spa and wellness area at water level, that opens up to folding balconies. The main tenders and toys are all stored forward of this area. Pieter informs us the design is not yet set in stone, and variations of this general plan are being studied to suit different requests and requirements.Van Geest Design +31 614 35 99 53 <a href="mailto:info@vangeestdesign.com?subject=Van%20Geest%20Design%2090%20Open%20on%20SuperYachtTimes.com">info@vangeestdesign.com</a> <a target="_blank" href="http://www.vangeestdesign.com/">www.vangeestdesign.com</a> By Maarten Janssen

Van Geest Design presents 80 metre superyacht design

<a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/283" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Luiz de Basto Designs (Company)">DeBasto Designs</a> has unveiled the first details of the new 70-metre explorer yacht Project Quest, in collaboration with <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/44" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Abeking & Rasmussen (Company)">Abeking &amp; Rasmussen</a>. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/398541/image/large-fc280a8327d52fae8e97a65200c427e4.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/398541">Designed with a striking metallic blue hull and superstructure, Project Quest boasts a strong profile with white accented deck overhangs. “Her exterior design is modern and aggressive, setting her apart from the generic standard explorers on the market,” explained designer Luiz DeBasto.&nbsp;Project Quest is defined by a sweeping ascending sheerline curve, with extensive glazing throughout. &nbsp;Her full-beam main saloon benefits from floor-to-ceiling windows which elevate her connection to the sea and provide plenty of light inside.&nbsp;Her large aft deck flows seamlessly into her main saloon and dining area on the main deck, which also includes an elevator which services her sun, main and lower decks. Amidships on the main deck is a VIP suite, alongside her full-beam owner’s suite.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/398540/image/large-7c20dbf44a9650793545b9b01da6d978.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/398540">Situated forward, her owner’s suite benefits from his-and-hers ensuite bathrooms, a California king-size bed and the possibility of sliding doors which lead to terraces on both her port and starboard.The lower deck of Project Quest includes four additional guest suites, alongside accommodation for a crew of 16 across eight cabins. This deck is also home to a spa, as well as her garage, which includes a side opening door for easy access to her water toys.&nbsp;Moving to her upper deck, guests onboard Project Quest can unwind in her skylounge, before making their way to her aft deck to relax on her deck. Here, an alfresco dining space for 10 allows for outdoor meals, while additional lounge seating makes the perfect spot for an aperitif cocktail. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/398539/image/large-923db6accf3de9468847a780e33b6c3e.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/398539">For those looking to top up their tans, the sundeck of Project Quest plays host to a whirlpool spa, with integrated seating and the addition of sun loungers. The 70-metre yacht also boasts a touch-and-go helideck for extended exploration opportunities.&nbsp;As well as this, Project Quest is equipped with 10-ton cranes integrated into her aft deck bulwarks and the capability of carrying two 12.8-metre tenders. In terms of performance, Project Quest uses a diesel-electric propulsion system, providing the explorer yacht with great autonomy and range.

(Company)">Amer Yachts</a>, which merges sleek, innovative design with lightweight construction.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/398223/image/large-6f0b3c85c8ae6ba036580d1af8b70677.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/398223"> Conceived by Luxardo for the Italian shipyard’s new steel production line, the Amer 42A brings together innovation, functionality and aesthetics through what the designer describes as a precise technical and stylistic vision. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/398225/image/large-4ff255fafd4eb028927dc49b851215b4.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/398225">Distinguished by her layered glazing and lines reminiscent of waves, the yacht presents “energy, dynamism, and sportiness.” Rather than sticking to conventional horizontal deck lines, the Amer 42A features sinuous deck contours that create a great sense of movement. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/398221/image/large-7355946cde947ede038f3fdfaaa1b0ba.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/398221">Despite her dynamic design, the Amer 42A retains large windows to strengthen the relationship between the interior and exterior, with an emphasis on the guests immersing themselves with the surrounding seascape. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/398220/image/large-1e6fb3f39db0f20b5e20aa06a2b7de47.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/398220">From hull to superstructure, the yacht is constructed entirely in aluminium. According to the designer, this flexible material reduces overall weight while improving performance, enabling higher speeds with greater efficiency, and a low-slung profile that reduces drag while optimising navigation.Moreover, these sculptural forms are made possible by the use of the ductile material in creating pronounced curves, undercuts, overhangs, and cantilevers while maintaining structural efficiency.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/398224/image/large-22fc13d38f01b6d1bb5ffc8f649cd647.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/398224" 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;">With a layout designed to balance engineering and contemporary design, accommodation onboard the Amer 42A is arranged across a full-beam owner's suite on the main deck, alongside guest staterooms located on the lower deck. Moving outside, her sundeck has been designed as the dedicated area for relaxation.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/398222/image/large-9ee3dd078ec7b6e9225d6e60feda2647.png" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/398222" 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;">

Amer Yachts unveils “all-aluminium” Amer 42A superyacht

Paris-based design studio <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/8836" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="AERI (Company)">Aeri</a> has unveiled the 60-metre superyacht concept, Aeon. While her exterior impresses with its sculpted form and dynamic silhouette, her interiors draw immediate inspiration from traditional Japanese ink painting, known as Sumi-e.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/397900/image/large-25770025bec72332e78e089c1e6f4c78.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/397900">This design language is echoed throughout the yacht, where a tapered stern and carefully sculpted hull give her a sense of movement even when at anchor. Her superstructure follows the same architectural philosophy, with each deck set slightly back from the one below, creating a series of spacious outdoor terraces while reducing the yacht’s visual bulk.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/397905/image/large-7b0d07ff485db32e75db80d4dc5f6721.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/397905">Inside, Aeon's main saloon is defined by expansive panelling and an understated aesthetic. Hand-painted Sumi-e-inspired panels, paired with a carefully curated palette of neutral tones and dark woods, create a serene atmosphere that runs throughout the yacht.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/397904/image/large-7f18429be1d53c258046583d94ef94e5.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/397904">At the centre of her main saloon, a low-profile L-shaped sofa in cream fabric anchors the space. Overhead, a striking ceiling feature combines illuminated panels with wood inlays, subtly echoing the Sumi-e inspiration. Carefully selected furnishings, including sculptural bar stools, enhance the sense of elegance, while sliding doors lead seamlessly to the adjacent outdoor dining and lounge areas.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/397902/image/large-d828f08f688ddb4924bb3f89453ffe66.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/397902"><img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/397903/image/large-61472bc9b5dc00bd42d9f10dc2a9914f.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/397903">With owner privacy and flexibility in mind, Aeon's designer has presented several general arrangement options. She measures a beam of 10.5-metres and a gross tonnage of approximately 500 GT plus. Aeon offers either five or six guest cabins, alongside a variety of entertainment and lifestyle configurations, and is supported by crew accommodation in eight cabins.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/397906/image/large-4a9069b84e00c7fea6d53c75c398727b.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/397906"><img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/397899/image/large-269c5397b57b06bbe3c704364d4423f0.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/397899">One layout features a dedicated private owner’s deck complete with a Jacuzzi and outdoor relaxation area. Forward, a larger swimming pool area enhances leisure space, while aft, an open discussion pit connects directly to an enclosed wellness area.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/397901/image/large-ff3b63ffaedeb07159be13b1974dbb7a.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/397901">“Rather than relying on sheer scale for its presence, the concept seeks to demonstrate how carefully considered proportions, sculpted surfaces and architectural layering can create a yacht with a distinctive identity and a powerful visual character,” concluded the design studio.

Aeon: 60m yacht concept with traditional Japanese ink painting-inspired interiors

Independent designer Sanjit Nair has unveiled the 110-metre yacht concept Airavat. The yacht draws on traditional Indian architecture and Eastern character to present a new interpretation of contemporary superyacht design.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/397835/image/large-8ecee397953de6a34f0649093b7c1551.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/397835">Conceived without the constraints of a specific gross tonnage category or yacht class, Airavat takes inspiration from monumental Indian temples, translating their structural expression, spatial layouts and craftsmanship into a contemporary yacht concept. According to the designer, the project marks a deliberate departure from the "glass-box" aesthetic prevalent across much of today's superyacht market.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/397818/image/large-4a501bd7a2cc02b1897dd11e4ee1c309.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/397818"><img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/397817/image/large-ea64ebd61db0c46a90d599d1a10991bc.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/397817">Inspired by the mythical royal white elephant, the designer aims for the Airavat concept to move past the "glass-box" and “automotive” themes that currently dominate the superyacht market. Unburdened from the typical limitations of specific yacht tonnage, this concept was conceived to offer a fresh vision in the industry.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/397836/image/large-f7bbcc3fc5f0fb968ffc0eb362903afa.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/397836"><img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/397809/image/large-70e285713fb37f7cbe96be09c5aad23f.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/397809" 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;">Rather than concealing the vessel's structural boundaries, designer Sanjit Nair incorporates the grandeur, massive scale, and intricate artistry of traditional Indian temple architecture, turning the yacht into a spiritual sanctuary at sea.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/397812/image/large-5315c8defbbaf32c671d9fd60b0bb539.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/397812">Reflecting on the project, Sanjit Nair added: "Superyacht design has hit a structural and spatial saturation point; vessels are beginning to mimic one another, losing their individual soul. Vision Juggernaut is how I want to add a different kind of value to yacht design. It is an expression of personal style and a form of adding an authentic Eastern character–defined by raw scale, monumental reverence and structural honesty– to the global stage.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/397829/image/large-0db7f57680934fa8302612781a57eae3.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/397829">In terms of defining features, Airavat showcases its exposed double-height structural pillars that support the superstructure. Rather than hiding these structural elements, the design celebrates the grandeur of traditional Indian stone columns to create a striking silhouette.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/397830/image/large-b45ee2abe559d2df1ed9d63cc785df4c.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/397830" 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;">Her aft deck has been conceived as a ceremonial arrival space, featuring a broad staircase descending to the swim platform alongside an 11-metre infinity pool. Inspired by the Varanasi Ghats along the Ganges River, the arrangement is intended to recreate the experience of approaching India's historic riverside steps.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/397816/image/large-edfb7199b3e7509fe8046f04bab6a25b.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/397816" 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;">Forward, the yacht's sculptural bow mimics the sweep of an elephant's trunk, while the hull and superstructure reference the star-shaped foundations of Karnataka's Keshava Temple. Meanwhile, a life-sized sculpture of the mythical white elephant Airavata stands prominently on the bow, reinforcing the yacht’s identity.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/397813/image/large-a4a30e7a838bd434bc6a6ecda2c06339.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/397813"><img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/397815/image/large-07fce8c614fd8943a271cff3fbf41a20.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/397815">Airavat&nbsp;creatively reimagines ancient motifs as modern yacht elements. For instance, overhanging balconies inspired by Jharokha architecture serve as private viewing retreats overlooking the sea.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/397827/image/large-0e53430bebfe5872bc16c1c5726f9017.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/397827"><img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/397828/image/large-1072cfe948d99771e1dbfa2d016acd4a.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/397828">Moving inside, the design creates an interplay of light and geometry: circular, Mandala-inspired teak decking aligns with an illuminated glass roof above the dining pavilion, capturing the &nbsp;"open-sky" architecture found in the Kopeshwar Shiva Temple.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/397826/image/large-6612b1e51380b6bd0bb89d057ff19208.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/397826">With a beam of 17-metres, Airavat features a centralised arrangement of interior living spaces intended to maximise onboard comfort and stability. The owner's deck incorporates a spacious aft lounge fitted with a custom diamond-shaped bar, while a grand central staircase leads to the bridge deck dining pavilion, set beneath the Mandala-inspired skylight.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/397832/image/large-34732874166f334be26b3a63f8a246d3.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/397832">

Airavat: The 110m superyacht concept inspired by Indian temple architecture

Italian studio <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/8392" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="SY design (Company)">SY Design</a> has unveiled Kairos, a 52-metre motor yacht concept centred around a stronger connection between the guests and the surrounding sea.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/397334/image/large-8796d9063db33dbbfbb5f54882d17b18.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/397334">Designed to remain under the 500 GT threshold, Kairos is conceived to be built with a lightweight aluminum structure, with the intention of making the outdoors the heart of life onboard. The designer has noted that the concept carefully combines open, flowing spaces with floor-to-ceiling glazing and wide hull openings. Moreover, the layout is intended to draw in natural light to flood her interiors, frame breathtaking sea views, and create a seamless access to the water. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/397336/image/large-42daf1825f66f137b146990641679193.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/397336">Outside, Kairos is characterised by slender proportions and a modern profile that flows effortlessly from the bow to the stern.Her stern serves as one of the focal points of the project. A magnificent pool set at sea level becomes the part of the beach club area, crafted to deepen the connection between the guests and the ocean and expand the sense of openness across her decks. Reflecting the project's philosophy, <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/8392" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="SY design (Company)">SY Design</a> explained that "the objective was not to maximise gross tonnage, but to maximise the owner's experience of the sea."<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/397335/image/large-e57a868a18e96191861bfc535940ba8c.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/397335">Wide lateral openings in the hull further extend the views, and invites abundant natural light to dance across the aft, resulting in a bright and open area. Above, her main deck cockpit has been envisioned as a terrace overlooking the sea. In this space, two opposing L-shaped sofas are arranged for mingling and casual lounging, &nbsp;while glass bulwarks preserve uninterrupted views of the horizon.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/397337/image/large-8562659c5dd2fd32334132b65c354912.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/397337">Ascending further, the yacht’s expansive 105-square-metre fly deck serves as a defining outdoor living area, offering space for socialising, entertaining and open-air dining. Forward, her deck features a flexible layout, allowing owners to tailor the space based on their preferences. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/397333/image/large-f17ca1e6f871b464c45ae86a2169b934.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/397333">With a beam of nine-metres, accommodation onboard Kairos is arranged for up to 12 guests across six staterooms.

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.

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.

M80: New 80m hybrid explorer yacht concept with underwater ‘nemo lounge’

<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.

Earlier this year, Paul visited the yard for the yacht’s official launch.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/398589/image/large-392751553f2d2f178de6f73300a22a02.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/398589">The yacht’s name comes from a song by Foghat, and is something Paul’s entire family connected with. “We narrowed it down from about a 100 names to 10, and then five and then three, and eventually I just pulled the trigger. <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/16808" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Slow Ride23.85m (78'3&quot;)Bering Yachts2026">Slow Ride</a> made the most sense, we all related to it”, recalls Paul, who is very much a family man. On a cloudy day in January, as the yacht was launched, Paul blasted 'Slow Ride'&nbsp;on the yacht’s speakers whilst taking the yacht for her very first ride.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/382519/image/large-136ef5f4fa7f10e6c8be257f7d67b10b.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/382519" 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;"> Love at first sightPaul has closely followed the build process along. “From the time of ordering the boat to hand over, it’s a long period,” shares Paul. Yet building his very own yacht is something Paul has thought about for a long time. “We’ve had used boats, I’ve always fixed them up, put the systems I wanted on them,” Paul continues, “I was watching boating videos and stumbled upon the <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/16808" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Slow Ride23.85m (78'3&quot;)Bering Yachts2026">Bering Yachts</a> channel, and decided to give them a call.”“Honestly, we didn’t actually look anywhere else,” Paul mentions, “when I saw the videos and chatted with Alexei, he was just so down-to-earth, and I loved the style of the boat, it was unique looking.” Paul felt like the <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/4385" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Bering Yachts (Company)">Bering Yachts</a> Shipyard in Antalya was the right fit, “the yacht is a steel hull, which is precisely what I was looking for.”Having always owned pre-built yachts, Paul’s patience has been tested, not just because of his excitement to cruise onboard the yacht, but also because a week after signing the deal, Paul’s other yacht, sitting in Fort Myers, Florida, was destroyed by hurricane Ian. “It’s quite surreal that it happened like that.” Getting to launch the yacht and see her touch the water was a great moment of both relief and excitement.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/382538/image/large-b3a6aabc47478833dc3131bd137e923b.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/382538">Designing a superyachtThe yacht is a semi-custom, so while the bones were pre-designed, there were plenty of choices left for Paul and his family to decide on. The stand-out choice has been the colour of the hull: “we probably went through 15 or 20 different colour renders, and Carol likes blue, so we were searching for the perfect colour” Paul recalls. Upon finding a colour they liked, Paul asked the yard to send a big colour swatch: “a computer only shows so much, but as soon as we saw the swatch we fell in love with the colour.”The interiors feature a softer, more neutral palette than the teal exterior, across an open floor plan that seamlessly connects the galley with the saloon and features large windows, providing plenty of natural lighting. The galley looks out onto the aft deck, where a table for ten creates the ideal place for al fresco dining, enjoying sunsets or a delicious morning coffee.A diesel electrician by trade, Paul is especially happy with how the engine room turned out. “Anything mechanical I love,” Paul highlights, “we’ve packed that room like you can’t believe: we’ve changed some of the electronics, the AC systems, upgraded it to 48 volt.” The engine room was expanded, getting rid of the crew head, as “we’re not really crew people anyways.” <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/382508/image/large-8957a0d4c70d67e74479c8a653443b1a.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/382508" 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;">Feeling secure<a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/16808" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Slow Ride23.85m (78'3&quot;)Bering Yachts2026">Slow Ride</a> marks a sense of security, but also of freedom, and a big point of purchasing a yacht was ensuring Paul and Carol could manage it themselves: &nbsp;“It’s important to us that we can run the yacht by ourselves; not having to run upstairs, worrying about fenders.”The yachts that Paul previously owned were great, but ”they never had everything on it that we wanted; I was constantly busy converting yachts we purchased,” shares Paul. With <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/16808" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Slow Ride23.85m (78'3&quot;)Bering Yachts2026">Slow Ride</a>, Paul has “all the systems onboard: not having to go in for pump outs anymore because there is a sewage treatment plan onboard and dual water makers so you have the back-up.” A lot of the technological systems introduced onboard are not just for comfort of long distance cruising, but also to feel safe and secure when cruising: “Just knowing all this is onboard, in case something happens while cruising with my family, I don’t worry so much,” shares Paul.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/398588/image/large-2631ff32ceef53dd64b3c6380ef5683d.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/398588" 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;">A sense of freedomOne place that is definitely on the cruising destination is a little fishermen village, near the shipyard that Paul and Carol visited a while ago. “We befriended the owner of a restaurant, he’s a fantastic chef, and we promised that once we have the yacht, we’ll come visit and enjoy dinner together.”&nbsp;Besides the shores of Turkey, Paul is eager to explore the Mediterranean: “We’ve never boated in the Mediterranean, but I’ve done lots of research on it, followed lots of sailboaters online.” Having itineraries planned out, thanks to fellow yachties, and with the yacht ready cruise, Paul and Carol are bound to have a great summer in the Mediterranean, “getting as close to shore as I can with the shallow draft.”<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/398590/image/large-1289eb29cd7094aadb3ee64b0312c4f1.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/398590" 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;">
