Review: Oceanco 248' Superyacht "Anastasia"

 
 
Review Tools Rate Review
Her six guest rooms are laid out sumptuously. This Upper Deck VIP, located aft of the bridge, is fashioned with a gold patterned queen size berth, raised with storage beneath. Walls feature eucalyptus and fine fabrics, while each guest room is decorated with hand painted original artwork.

Her Main Salon is sedately refined in its approach to decor; a simple, genteel setting sans the extravagance it could easily command. Varying shades of eucalyptus on the walls. Ceiling and flooring noiseless, bamboo, rotan and oak woods. Fastidious. Sweet. However, Anastasia’s mood swings can also throw a party. A blast. Furniture rolled back; she outs a disco/dance floor; laser/lights/smoke machine; roaring, thumping, recessed speakers. Outdoor furniture on the upper deck is transformed into a live bandstand. She metamorphoses into a sizzling nightclub! Even the teens will Get Down.

At the forward reach of the main salon, this magnificent Aquarium presents a see-through visage to the dining room; while displaying crisp design sense in bronze, copper and faux crocodile leather embellishments.

On the opposite side of the aquarium, Anastasia’s formal dining room extends a lengthy, eucalyptus dining table seating 12, also dedicated to simplicity rather than lavishness. Yet she celebrates with hand-blown tallow candles gracing the candelabra, and exalts a spectacular wall of art – a beach theme of ceramic hand-made clay. Flooring is bamboo with a creme carpet overlay.

Anastasia’s Galley, certainly, utilizes all the most current trappings for accomplished chefs, including burnished stainless steel on her central counter and trim on her eucalyptus-paneled cabinetry. Her galley easily accommodates double door refrigerator/freezers; Sub-Zero, Electrolux, Herzog Hopman appliances and twin sinks, plus copious arrangements for storage. Overhead lighting is fluorescent. The centralized prep area allows for several chefs at one time.

With an enormous 72” flat screen, her cinema projects gorgeous, near life-size images for the 10-seat viewing audience; whether movies, satellite television, slides, or immediate transfers from on-site digital sources. Volcanic basalt furniture and metallic curtains add to the ambiance.

The Owner’s staircase represents an excellent portrayal of design principles which flavor this magnificent yacht: Dark eucalyptus contrasting with light, set against cream stucco walls and carpet, engage a perfect balance. Notice the clever angle of the banister as it joins the fragile artificial flowers; plus the red and green accents – fine art.

Excellent design and contrast also categorize the owner’s office as it nestles below the striking panorama of planned cubes and color nuances. Eucalyptus, dark Makassar, faux crocodile leather, bamboo floor; it could readily be the design for a top echelon office building.

Guest staterooms on Anastasia follow the design scenario in color and material choices. The queen size berth is raised on a carved elevation of dark Makassar wood.

VIP Staterooms on Anastasia feature queen size berths, with original fine art over the headboards. Done in light rotan and white oak woods, they also utilize eucalyptus, bamboo and stucco. Floors are bamboo and sandstone. Each sports a complete bath, as well as a separate shower. Each has an additional fold-away Pullman berth.

To facilitate the boarding process, Anastasia provides a C-Quip passarelle astern; as well as this convenient stairway leading down to an abbreviated dock. Passengers, or water toy mavens, can quickly make the short journey down to leave the yacht. Play’s the thing!

A longer shot shows the entire offshore boarding dock system. Handy for offshore visiting, and/or boarding any of the yacht’s cadre of water toys.

It all began when, prompted by their fascination for water sports –the family decided to engage Sam Sorgianni, a top professional who designed Greg Norman’s off-the-greens play-toy. Browsing through Sam’s expansive design portfolio, the entire family chose “The One.” His follow-up comprehensive plan led to Oceanco’s building proposal; the elegant cruising quarters, complemented by its array of water sports, produced this ultimate luxury craft. Shown here is the family’s 31’ Vikal Limousine tender, ready to launch from her garage.

In this spacious lower deck garage, and lazarette, Anastasia stores wet suits, water skis, diving apparatus, with plenty of room for every detail, well organized and ready to go. Attending the gear and players are the two 31’ Vikal custom launches; each sporting opening bows for beaching, and ‘legs’ for independent storage, rather than cradles.

Although many yachts offer runabouts and water skis, Anastasia shelters these special quarters which house the four individual-use tenders to accommodate fishing, speedboating, nitrox diving, competition jet skis, sailboards, waverunners. Stored below in the spotless garage. She sports her own rechargeable diesel fuel station to maintain them all at the top of their game.
