Including a first glimpse into the interior, revealing what appears to be a double-height volume with a sculptural feature rising through the main deck salon.
Nausicaa will carry a Triton 660/9 AVA submarine onboard. I’d also personally expect Yachtwerft Meyer-built tenders. They’ve been very active in Maezawa’s build posts and previously worked with Newson on one of the Solaris tenders. Yachtwerft Meyer even shared a covered tender a few months back that looks very similar to the limo tender in the renderings, and they often post about working on a very large tender.
The double-volume space appears strongly gallery-focused, with large chrome- or aluminium-finished canvases suspended from the ceiling and partially overlapping the floor-to-ceiling windows on the lower deck. The central sculpture seems to depict a boy on a diving board and could possibly be a work in the style of Elmgreen & Dragset — personally I find it a fitting choice for both the yacht and MZ’s strong passion for contemporary art. The back right area could possibly be a sushi bar. I can not wait for the first interior shots.
The amount of structural glazing (glass) on this yacht is impressive. Lurssen did a fantastic job of concealing the internal mullions needed on the main deck wrap around glazing and the double compound curved glass on the top deck had to cost a small fortune. Not a real stunner looks wise in my eye but its growing on me the more that I study it. Certainly, a quantum leap forward with the amount of structural glazing for classification societies to be comfortable with signing off on.
