Pegasus VIII in Gibraltar

Recently seen in the port of Gibraltar is the Danish built superyacht Pegasus VIII (ex. Princess Mariana). Completed in 2003, the yacht is designed by Espen Oeino, and features a unique interior by Zuretti Interior with the owner’s cabin placed on the lower deck, with direct access to the ocean via a large folding balcony. Another cool feature is her huge beach club with a floating tender bay which transforms into a seawater swimming pool. Pegasus VIII has since departed the Med and is now cruising the west coast of Spain.

The 78m Royal Denship Pegasus VIII in Gibraltar

This summer the Dutch commercial shipbuilder Hartman Marine Group merged with Royal Denship. The company already has a 24 metre motor yacht in-build and has laid the keel for a 42 metre explorer superyacht on 21 December 2015.<img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/157740/image/large-c3177cf910437ceabddb19f44886e566.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/157740">In 2009 Royal Denship was declared bankrupt, but in the mid-2000s the company had created a name for itself with the construction of several well-known yachts, including the 78.60 metre Princess Mariana (now Pegasus VIII) and the 63 metre Turmoil. At that time the superyachts were built at different shipyards in Denmark, however the new Royal Denship yachts will be built in Urk, the Netherlands.<img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/157741/image/large-235929775f424594acd403b4895f3f49.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/157741">The 24 metre motor yacht is due for delivery in March 2016. The 42 metre explorer superyacht is designed by Kroes &amp; Poortinga and she will be delivered in 2017. The steel hulled motor yacht will have a volume of 485 GT and, thanks to twin Caterpillar C32 Acert engines, she can reach a top speed of 14 knots.By Merijn de Waard

The 119 metre Blohm &amp; Voss built superyacht A is currently hauled out at Palumbo Shipyard where the entire yacht will be covered and prepared for a new coat of paint. Other routine maintenance works will be performed over the winter period. Superyact A’s stern section was re-sprayed last year in New Zealand.<img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/157384/image/large-e71a8536d7b53625490127e8b81cbdde.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/157384"><img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/157385/image/large-93a15c14aa4b07749e4d3e2900ce4734.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/157385">In addition to A, Palumbo SuperYachts reports that a fleet of other yachts visited their facilities in Malta and Marseilles over the past season and will be making use of their refit services during the winter months. Maltes Falcon for instance is back in Malta where she will be prepared for her 10 year Lloyds survey.<img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/157386/image/large-8840ee34f9f53c92aa86a35e5088ae1f.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/157386">At Palumbo’s ITM shipyard in Marseille, business has been good over the past season with visits from the 70m Skat, 55m Steel, 60m Slipstream and 71m Titania, who is currently in Abu Dhabi. The 74 metre CRN superyacht Yalla and 78 metre Royal Denship Pegasus VIII too made use of the yard’s facilities and expertise recently. The facility located in the south of France has become very popular thanks to its four dry docks ranging from 80 to 126 metres in length, and an overall surface of 1200 square metres.<img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/157387/image/large-a73114721e8d82b9840a078ec9acb727.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/157387">Palumbo reports that significant resources are going into the development of their facilities in Marseilles and Malta to make the experience more attractive for crew. Crew lounges, barbeque areas, gymnasiums and games rooms will soon be a feature crew can look forward to at the Marseille sfacility, as is already the case in Malta.By Charl van Rooy

This might mean less of a view from the cabin, but it does mean direct access to the sea, as she has a large folding balcony.

Fraser Yachts is pleased to announce their appointment as the joint central agent for the sale of the 76.91m Princess Mariana. Built in Denmark by Royal Denship in 2003, Princess Mariana was designed by Espen Oeino and features a beautiful interior by Francois Zuretti. The six deck superyacht can accommodate 12 guests. A superb owners cabin, with sea balcony, 2 VIP suites, 2 double staterooms and 1 twin cabin. <img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/125312/image/large-a6d5ae85b39146dcdf1a19eac283ae9d.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/125312">One of her most striking features is the Beach Club, which doubles as the tender garage. This is a dry dock for the custom built Oeino designed tender which can be flooded to create a 12 meter swimming pool with underwater lighting and steps. In addition to this, the entire length of the starboard hull wall lowers to just above sea level, creating a large teak terrace for sunloungers, chairs and tables. When on port side the tender is launched and the transom door is open, light enters the Beach Club from all directions. Other notable features include a large cinema for 13 guests, helicopter landing pad (which becomes a golf driving range with a massive screen, when the helicopter has left), a waterfall which flows down a marble wall through the decks in the staircase and a party-deck with two bars, seating areas, dance floor, barbeque, sunloungers and a spa pool. <img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/125313/image/large-d9cf68833188207bd6e073db989b7e4f.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/125313">The Mexican owned yacht is listed by Fraser Yachts’ brokers Rob Newton (of the Fort Lauderdale office) and Jose Arana Sr. (of the Mexico City office) in cooperation with Edmiston &amp; Co.

CNI had an extremely successful show with some brokers announcing numerous offers on just the second day. CNI’s VIP treatment Reflecting the social scene, CNI hosted a couple of fun events during the show, including the annual Captain’s Dinner, held once again at Chima on Las Olas Blvd, in association with Bank of America. Global Marine Travel (GMT) graciously donated an air ticket for a raffle won by Captain Andre Peens of <a href="#managed-by-application" data-legacy="true" data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/81">Princess Mariana</a>. CNI’s Crewed Affair crew party, now in its third year, was held on the Friday preceding the show. This year CNI partnered with Dockwalk magazine and GMT in hosting what has become a really fun pre-show party. Over 400 crew, captains and friends, attended. This year CNI brought a Carbon Neutral dimension to their participation with a fleet of hybrid cars to chauffeur clients around the show in. The distinctive green pennants could be seen from quite some distance which was useful considering the inordinate amount of traffic. Those who came to CNI’s VIP outdoor lounge were ushered into the indoor Café due to the weather. The food was superb and ensured that a crowd of guests (and CNI staff) packed it every day of the show. On the opening day CNI were pleased to assist Yacht Accent, the yacht furnishings company, in hosting a small private reception to meet the designer Giovanna Locatelli. <img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/123693/image/large-fbf53e6bcef99836018e974303a63709.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/123693">George Nicholson, Chairman of CNI, was recognized for his many achievements and involvement in the yachting industry by receiving the International Superyacht Society’s coveted Award for Leadership. The ISS held their annual gala dinner on 25 October at the Marriott Harbour Drive to a Polynesian theme. In Mr Nicholson’s absence the award was picked up by CNI’s CEO Jillian Montgomery. The event also saw Maltese Falcon snatch up a series of awards.
