The 27 must-see new yachts at the 2016 Monaco Yacht Show

The first hull from Dutch yard Moonen’s new Matica semi-custom line, Bijoux features a convertible transom, which can fold out to create a spacious beach club. This 29.90 metre displacement yacht features interiors by Adam Lay Studio and was built for a highly experienced owner who plans to use her to explore the Caribbean.

The latest Custom Line flagship arrives in time to celebrate the Ferretti Group’s 20th anniversary. A high bow and huge windows, including the sleek wrap-around glazing on the upper deck, defines the profile. The entire main deck forward is dedicated to the owner, and has a wide-body master suite.

Shooting across the water at 30 knots is 70 metre Heesen Galactica Super Nova, the largest yacht to use the innovative Fast Displacement Hull Form developed by Van Oossanen Naval Architects.

Speed was just one of the must-haves for the owner, along with a swimming pool with a waterfall. Eye-catching lines are by Espen Øino, while Sinot Exclusive Yacht Design’s interior makes use of subtle pops of colour.

The Turkish built Giaola-Lu is heading to Monaco this year to show off the fine craftsmanship of Bilgin Yachts. Her Mexican owner specified a high-tech interior for this 46.8 metre yacht, including smartphone controls for the Harman Kardon sound system, curtains, air conditioning, lighting, televisions and security cameras.

The first hull in Otam’s custom range, Gipsy has a layout by Tommaso Spadolini that measures 35.2 metres and makes excellent use of her volume. The upper deck is entirely dedicated to the owner, freeing up the main deck for a 40 square metre saloon with movie theatre and full-beam dining room and galley with 25 square metre larder. The lower deck has four VIP cabins, all with en suites.

The new 59 metre by shipbuilder Metalships Rodman is the largest yacht ever designed and built in Spain. Maybe has a range of 5,000 nautical miles and a helipad on the upper deck. There’s plenty of luxury onboard with the Marcelo Penna interiors featuring a gym, massage room, sauna and cinema saloon.

Light-filled interiors are all but assured in the new Admiral C Force 50 Ouranos thanks to its unique superstructure featuring huge glazing, glass bulwarks and vertical windows along the main-deck master suite. The exterior by Uniellè Yacht Design has a bold, geometric feel and she can reach a top speed of 17 knots.

Built by the Italian Sea Group for an experienced owner, the Admiral E Motion 55 Quinta Essentia has a high-tech hybrid propulsion system for silent, eco-friendly performance.

Each deck is dedicated to unwinding – a spa on the lower deck, large pool with waterfall on the main, indoor/outdoor main saloon on the upper, and gym and spa bath on the top. A snazzy paint job brings out her exterior lines by Dobroserdov Design.

Silver and sporty, Sara Star is Mondomarine’s first 60 metre and its new flagship. She marks the first in a new series of fast, innovative yachts from the Italian builder — ranging between 41.5 metres and 60 metres. Styled inside and out by Luca Dini, this all-aluminium yacht runs at a top speed of 21 knots.

Launched earlier this year as the fourth hull in the Wally Ace series, Wally Casa will be attending this year’s Monaco Yacht Show. This 27.33 metre superyacht was commissioned by an American owner and features interiors that were developed by Wally Yachts in collaboration with Luca Bassani Design.
