The freshest new superyacht concepts for 2018 and beyond

Falcon

What is it?

A sharply styled 90 metre concept from Dutch studio Vripack, aptly named after the razor-taloned, keen-eyed bird of prey.

Why we love it

The open-plan interiors, designed to imbue a feeling of warmth, include a private family deck for the owner and a 20-seat cinema, as well as a spectacular spiral staircase that runs all the way to the sundeck. This comfortable atmosphere influenced the radically retro exterior, which Vripack describes as “neo-classical”. The warm white hull is topped with a superstructure clad in swathes of unvarnished wood and set with green glass.

Noble Path

What is it?

Innovative materials, cutting-edge technology and futuristic design combine in this 80 metre addition to Philippe Briand’s Vitruvius Yachts collection of explorers.

Why we love it

Briand’s striking design would be built from Krion — a mineral-resin composite that is hardwearing, antibacterial and easy to repair. Science aside, Noble Path balances a radical, futuristic form that appears to lean backwards with classical elements such as latticework in the superstructure, which draws on the Arabic architectural tradition of mashrabiya. More than 1,900GT of interior space allows guests to spread out over five decks, but the best view is reserved for the owner — looking out over the foredeck.

Conrad C233

What is it?

This is a concept for Polish shipyard Conrad by ISA Yachts’ long-time design partner, A Vallicelli & Co.

Why we love it

Studio Vallicelli has deep roots in sailing and from this the designers draw a great sense of efficiency of spaces and lines. This helipad-capable 70 metre yacht can be built with a large pool aft on main deck connected to a beach club — or without at the owner’s choice.
