Apparently, The yacht division of Fincanteri has signed a contract to build a 140-meter long yacht at their Muggiano facility. Hull 6218 will be 7 decks tall and touted to host a 14-meter tender. More information on this newbuild when it comes to hand.

Fincanteri newbuild Hull 6154 should be soon due to launch. She is a massive 134-meter yacht. Is she to be called "Serena"?

IMO, the best ITA design interpretation of Fincantieri would be the 'Marco Polo'. I really don't understand why they did not built the wonderful different appearance, step also in future, some Venecian elements also, but i expect this to be 'Serena' like you say to be equally approach of what Marco Polo was and not repeating experiences of design Lürssen/B+V/German shipyards made most the same, to not be tired of again the same view, my hope only.

Has anyone heard anything on the progress of 6154? Is she behind schedule?

I hope that 6154 will be launched soon. She has a wonderful design. She was moved into the outfitting shed about two years ago if I'm not mistaken. That would mean she should still be on track for a launch this year or possibly in the coming months.

GermanYachting, that is the conventional thinking but things happen in the build process and remember she is large too so she will take a while. Member K1W1 works very close to the industry, that's all I would say about him and what he says is usually very credible all the time.

Yes, I know large yachts can go beyond the planned build schedule (Eclipse, Dubai, I'm talking about you) so then I would assume that she will be pushed back to 2011. What I am also curious about is the finishing of the yacht. Using Eclipse and Dubai as examples, they were taken out of their sheds quite early and then completed in the water. Since this is Fincantieri's first yacht (well, under the branding "Fincantieri Yachts"), I suppose that we do not know whether or not she will be completed fully inside the outfitting shed or will be launched and have further work done while being docked outside.

Well there will always be work to be done outside of the shed during her final fitout period prior to trials and after until delivery.

Well the press release out today from Fincanteri on the starting of steel cutting for their latest large yacht, the 140-meter "Victory" states at the end that hull 6154 will be launched in the coming weeks and be handed over to her owner by the end of the year. We will see...

Here's the Press Release and a copy of the line drawing included with that PR. Fincantieri has issued a lot of buzz-generating, futuristic renderings over the years and now, it looks like one of them will actually be built! Plate cutting starts in September. No doubt, Fincantieri has the means and technology, but can they build a boat without a rock climbing wall...?

WORK STARTS ON THE “VICTORY”, 140-METRE MEGA YACHT

Today, at Fincantieri’s shipyard in Muggiano (La Spezia), work commenced on the construction of the mega yacht ordered from Fincantieri at the end of last year.

At 140 metres long, Hull No. 6218, the project “Victory”, to the best of our knowledge, is the first mega yacht over 100 metres ordered since the onset of the financial crisis in October 2008.
Introduced by Camper & Nicholsons International, one of the world’s leading brokerage companies in the mega-yacht market, who will represent the Client throughout the construction.

Based on a new, unique concept which is the brainchild of the Monaco based naval design architect Espen Oeino and the Paris based interior designer Alberto Pinto, the project “Victory” has been developed by the Fincantieri Yachts team - the unit specifically devoted to this business area within the Fincantieri Group - to meet the requirements of the owner in full.

Project “Victory” has been designed, and will be built, to meet SOLAS regulations (the International Convention on Safety of Life at Sea) and will be one of the world’s most advanced vessels in terms of safety on board. The new mega yacht will have everything an owner may wish for since it embodies high technological content, close attention to detail in her interior furnishings and expertly crafted décor. In short, a top-of-the range yacht for quality and performance with 7 decks, 6 pools of up to 8 metres long and an internal floodable dock for a 14-metre tender. Great attention will be given to implementing environmentally friendly solutions. There is no doubt that when she is delivered the project “Victory” will be one of the world’s most – and possibly the most – technically advanced mega yachts in the world.

Giovanni Romano, head of Fincantieri Yachts, commented: “This mega yacht is the start of another ‘adventure’ which proves we were right to enter this area of the market, an exclusive niche where we set out to base our success both on product quality and the efficiency of our construction process. Today, drawing on our experience with our first mega yacht and having further refined our expertise in managing complex processes, we are in a position to guarantee excellent performance levels thus meeting the needs of a market which, we trust, is on the road to recovery”.

The shipyard is currently completing their first mega yacht, Hull No. 6154. At 134 metres long, she will be launched in the next few weeks and delivered to the owner by the end of the year.

So now hull 6154, "Serene", has been launched we can comment on her now. Interestingly she appears all white on the PR pics, but is she all white? Her hull might be a different colour, being covered over in protective film. What do you think?

Looking at higher resolution photos of Serene, I think she has a protective covering all over it. The paint seems dull and lacking gloss.
