Evo Yachts Premieres New Evo R+
The new Evo R+ is the latest addition to the R line from Evo yachts. The yard has released images of the latest iteration and we get to explore what this new yacht has to offer. At 18-meters in length (approximately 60-feet), it has a beam in the region of 5.31-meters (17.5-feet). Construction of the Evo R+ is in light materials and black aluminum is used for the superstructure. In line with Evo Yachts’ typical style, the edgy black aluminum top heightens the appeal of a profile that echoes sports car design. The sleekly contoured helm station is completely surrounded by windows that fill it with light like the entire Main Deck, offering a 360-degree view and featuring openings designed to provide natural ventilation. This model comes just two years after the brand launched its Evo V8 flagship. The R+ made its world premiere at the 2023 Cannes Yachting Festival in September...

Here we have a collaboration between Concept Yachts and Infiniti Yachts to present a ready-to-be-built 18-meter foil-assisted power cat. In fact, the yacht will be built and the two companies are eager on another successful collaboration as they have worked together in the past.

Project 'MED' Revealed By De Basto Designs
De Basto Designs has taken the wraps off their latest concept called Project 'MED'. It is a 92-meter superyacht with a gravity-defying superstructure as its main distinguishing feature. The hull design from De Basto is more-or-less conventional but the superstructure goes against the grain of convention with its shape and also its illusionary suspension from the hull...
New Brand Emerges With First Yacht Design
It has been recently revealed that the subcontracting builder of the hulls and superstructures for superyacht companies like Oceanco and Feadship is now branching out and endeavouring to build its own yachts. We are referring to Zwijnenburg Yachting. They in collaboration with Mannerfelt Design from Sweden are teaming up to form Atla Yachts.

Yacht Concepts at 2023 Monaco Show
Each year new concepts are generated to be presented at the Monaco Yacht Show (MYS). In this instance we look at some of the concepts that are due to be officially unveiled and presented at this years show, which starts this week in Monaco. The first is a concept called 'WAVES' which is a 93-meter superyacht design by Spanish designer Daroca Design in collaboration with Bolidt. Yes, the Bolidt that makes flooring solutions in the maritime industry. Bolidt is part of the design mix because they are proposing their synthetic flooring solutions onboard WAVES instead of the traditional teak flooring. The synthetic decking is to be used on this design in two distinct flooring patterns but overall, the material enjoys "unlimited design possibilities". Daroca Design implemented many big superyacht features to the design including a large aft pool with cascading waterfall element...
Ultimate Catamarans Introduce Spaceline 88
Ultimate Catamarans is a company based in Germany with its facilities in Croatia. The company is known for building aluminium-based catamarans from approximately 21-meters through to 45-meters. Their line of catamarans is known as the Spaceline range. The latest addition to the Spaceline range is the Spaceline 88 which is a 26.7-meter power cat. For a monohull, 26.7-meters is considered fairly small but because the vessel is a twin-hull configuration, the onboard space is significantly greater than any monohull of the same hull length...
X-Plorer Yachts Project Orion
This is the design of a 40-meter power catamaran. As far as we know it is not under construction but can be built if a client comes on board with the project. It is a 39.9-meter aluminum power cat to be built by X-Plorer Yachts based in Australia. However, it appears the yard is looking for another yard in Australia to build the project. Project Orion (GC40) as it is currently known as creates luxury living on the water across four decks and given that it is a catamaran platform, internal volume will be handy. It should be noted that no major specifications were available at the time of publishing...
New Astondoa Ax8 Crossover
A few months ago Astondoa revealed the Astondoa Ax8 Crossover yacht. That yacht is now making its debuts at the Autumn boat and yacht shows. The yard announced that it will be making its world premiere at the Genoa International Boat Show -which is currently underway September 21-26-. The Ax8 Crossover is a 24.46-meter vessel with a beam of 6.22-meters and a draft of 1.62-meters. Standard engine setup is Volvo Penta IPS 1350 pulling from full tankage capacity of 7,100 LT...
SilverCat Expanding With Two New Models
The SilverCat 36 is about to have siblings making the model a yacht range. The yard is adding two new models to the SilverCat lineup which will now have an entry-level vessel at 22-meters long and a slightly larger SC24 (23.9-meter). As you might expect, the two additions to the range will be based off the SilverCat 36 featuring design by Espen Oeino. The first hull in the entry-level SC22 is actually under construction and fairly advanced with the aluminium hull and superstructure mostly completed already...
New Austin Parker Model Range Kicks-Off With CAT 56
Here is a new power cat coming from Austin Parker with design taken from Pininfarina and De Simoni. The following will showcase some renders of the new Austin Parker CAT 56 which the yard suggests will start production this month. It will be the first unit from a range of new yachts that will be designed by these two studios for Austin Parker Yachts. "The acquisition of Austin Parker marks an important turning point for the shipyard - states Fulvio De Simoni, CEO of De Simoni Yacht Design. "Baris Nalcaci will not only make new financial resources available but, thanks to his solid industrial experience, will guarantee the production of the new catamaran and the boats currently in the range with state-of-the-art technologies...

Project 'Tempest' is currently under construction at Aegean Yachts facilities. The 37-meter vessel is being constructed in steel for the hull and aluminium for the superstructure. Ample exterior real estate will be available with a long main aft deck and a secluded foredeck with small plunge pool. The upper deck aft is where most of the sunlounging will be done with this vessel thanks to the purpose built-in sunbeds there...
Cigarette Racing 52 Thunder
Cigarette Racing has a new boat and it is called the Cigarette 52 Thunder. In the last few years the news cycle has been preoccupied by the 59 Tirranna from this builder. It is good to see them stepping back at this juncture in terms of length and not bringing a longer boat than the Tirranna. The Thunder was introduced back in June and represents a new path forward for Cigarette Racing. It is the first boat launched since the new ownership of the company as well as the first with the new V-bottom. While the Thunder may not be as long as the Tirranna, it has the same 14-foot beam which still will make it a very spacious center console category boat...

Atlante Yachts has been working on the development of a 35-meter Classic-styled explorer yacht from the Atlante Classic Series. The yard has a series of designs including the Classic Series, Levante and Mistral. This member of the Classic Series is a 35-meter (the yard suggests that the Classic Series is from 30-meters to 27-meters so far). This vessel has now been sold to a Northern European customer and is now expected to be delivered in 2025. In terms of Naval Architecture that is being done by Arrabito Naval Architects while the exterior and interior design is by the VYD Studio...

StellarPM Reveals SF2603 Design
A new sportfish catamaran design revealed. It is by a company called StellarPM based in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. The SF2603 is a step-up from StellarPM's previous StellarCAT AL2503 and is being developed between the yard and a gamefisherman. "The SF2603 was developed together with an experienced game fisherman who wanted a more stable and comfortable base boat than a traditional monohull sportsfisher could offer. His key requirements were safety, strength, superyacht luxury and the means to cruise between the great fishing grounds off Florida and the Caribbean, Belize and Nova Scotia and cruising areas much further afield when extended cruises with family and friends are in order. We are currently working on the development of a foiling solution which could well take the max speed up to 35kts+," comments Chris Holmes, Principal and Founder of StellarPM...
Cosmopolitan 77 To Be Presented At Cannes Yachting Festival
The design for the Cosmopolitan 77 is to be presented at the 2023 edition of the Cannes Yachting Festival next month. The new model will be an all-aluminium catamaran configuration with spacious volumes.
