Oceanco's NEW Y702!
Following in the footsteps of its predecessor, the Y701, which has received extensive build coverage by YachtForums, Oceanco is proud to unveil the NEW Y702! Another cutting-edge creation by the dynamic design duo of Nuvolari & Lenard, the Y702 is slated to splash in the summer of 2007.
Although there are striking similarities between the two 700-series yachts, there are dramatic differences in features. The 702 upholds the bold, angular look of its sooner-to-be-built sibling, but with smoother contours and some refined design elements. It’s not surprising the 701 would have a successor; the design has been so well received it prompted at least one owner to build another.
At first glance, the 700’s look so much alike, one might wonder if Oceanco was building production superyachts, but these are very different builds. The most distinguished difference is the Y702’s new heli-pad...
The new Custom Line 97’...
A new line of the Custom Line fleet is born! After the success of the Custom Line 94’ that saw a total of 21 units sold in six years, this brand has announced the debut of the new Custom Line 97’ for the 2005-2006 season.
This 29.5 meter planing hull is an evolution of the Custom Line 94’ and keeps many of the fundamental characteristics that made it a success. The vessel is a result of the ongoing co-operation between the CRN shipyard and the Zuccon International Project Studio that plans the Interior and Exterior layouts. Significant refinements has allowed an interior layout of four sizeable double guest cabins below deck, one more than the Custom Line 94’.
The new 97’s incorporate windows into the hull, so that each guest cabin has a large oval glass panel from which the guests can appreciate the surrounding sea. Underwater lights are provided as a standard feature to enhance this experience at night...

Folding keels come in a wide variety of shapes and configurations, but all have up until now shared the same problem of being a trade-off between the convenience of being able access hitherto inaccessible shallow anchorages and harbours, versus the problems associated with the highly complex engineering needed to operate the lifting mechanisms and a loss of internal accommodation space.
First shown at the Monaco Yacht Show 2005, the Scissor Keel™ from Humphreys Yacht Design typifies their solutions-led approach to the design of superyachts. Humphreys took as their brief the twin objectives of designing a lifting keel that firstly would present no danger to the yachts in the event of catastrophic failure, and secondly would not take up valuable accommodation space within the hull of the yacht...

A brand new and a very unique semi-displacement 40.5 metre BARON will extend to 42 metres by way of a swim platform from the hull and will be featured in Hall 6 at the Boote Düsseldorf Show between the 21st and 29th of January, 2006.
Catwalk's interior design concept incudes stucco walls and fabrics in harmony with Oak and African zebrawood, which have both a polished and satin finish. She was built entirely in-house by KaiserWerft of Bavaria in GRP. The yacht benefits from unusually high ceilings, especially in the entrance lobby located midship. This lounginf area is as high as 3 metres.
In continuity with previously built yachts, large windows in the observation lounge compliment the Salon, a few steps away. Exclusive staircases to the lower deck for both the VIP and Guests are an unusual feature. The large Master suite on the main deck incorporates a Nautilis, an unusual and unique seat at 3 different levels in the bow area...
