At the time they said that this concept would eventually scale up to a 65-foot vessel, well here is that vessel, the LY650...

Dutch yard Hakvoort Yachts used the 2018 Monaco Yacht Show (MYS) to announce the new build 45-meter codenamed Project 'Adur'.

In recent years the yard started to 'experiment' in motoryacht construction via it's then brand Picchiotti Yachts with vessels such as the 50-meter "Exuma" and others. It was then decided that after a few motoryacht builds they would drop the Picchiotti brand and brand the motoryachts under Perini Navi. Fast forward to this year's Monaco Yacht Show (MYS) and we have this announcement of more motoryachts from this yard.

HCB 65 Estrella; The Largest Center Console
We have covered the HCB 65 Estrella on YF before and it is a noteworthy boat, not because it holds the title as the largest Center Console yacht in the world, but because it has taken the CC game to a whole new level. With other competitors hot on the heels of HCB, they must define themselves far from the competition. The 65 Estrella not only has a great on-deck setup but the interior is amazing. The 65-footer is blurring the lines between an overnight interior and a full-fledge interior...
