American brokerage firm Worth Avenue Yachts has released its first design in a new collection of superyacht concepts — the 72.75 metre Aquila.
Development in collaboration with naval architects BMT Nigel Gee, Aquila features exterior styling by Christopher Seymour Designs, while the interiors are courtesy of Evan K Marshall and Carl Esch would act as design and project consultant.
The yacht would be built at an unspecified Italian yard to Lloyd’s registry standards with a 2019 delivery date mooted.
Worth Avenue adds that Aquila would be MCA compliant with a steel displacement hull and aluminium superstructure that could be finished in a choice of seven colours.
Accommodation is for 12 guests in six staterooms, including a master, four doubles and a twin cabin, while the crew quarters allow for a staff of up to 20 people.
Key features on board include a superyacht beach club, separate spa area and a vast sundeck with a spa pool flanked by sunbeds, numerous seating options and a full bar. The superyacht helipad is located on the foredeck, with enough space to land a Eurocopter EC135.
The upper deck features a sprawling owner’s suite with its own study, library, his and hers walk-in wardrobes and an aft-facing cabin leading onto a private deck.
The premium features continue on the main deck with a formal dining area seating 12 around a circular table, while the adjacent lounge area features a piano, bar, three sofas and four armchairs.
Power would come from a pair of MTU 16V 4000 M63L engines for a top speed of 18 knots and a cruising speed of 15 knots. When trimmed back to 12 knots, Aquila would boast an impressive maximum range of 6,000 nautical miles.
Dutch superyacht designer Nick Mezas has revealed his latest concept, a 74 metre motor yacht for the renowned Amels yard.
Former Young Designer of the Year finalist Mezas explained that this design aims to provide long-distance cruising in complete comfort.
Accommodation on board is for up to 12 guests, including a dedicated owner’s deck measuring 240 square metres. This area would feature his and hers en suites, walk-in wardrobes and a private superyacht office. A pair of main-deck VIP cabins and three lower deck doubles complete the guest accommodation.
Mezas adds that he paid close attention to creating great views out to sea — for this reason, the design features low beamy bulwarks and slanted knuckles in the bridge deck and sundeck.
Other key features include a 180 square metre aft deck, complete with bar, dance floor and 6.5 metre infinity pool. Moving up to the bridge deck, there are options for shaded seating overlooking the bow and an aft-deck sunbathing area, which doubles as a superyacht helipad.
The sun deck features further relaxation space for soaking up the sun, as well as a Jacuzzi, while the superyacht beach club includes fold-out terraces and a full-beam wellness centre.
If built, this 74 metre Nick Mezas design would rank as the fourth largest Amels, behind Boadicea, Montkaj and the recently launched 83 metre flagship Here Comes The Sun.
