30 Seconds on Board: The World’s Coolest Yacht Videos

Our 30 Seconds On Board video series dives into the world’s coolest superyachts for a whistle-stop tour of their interiors, revealing hidden secrets and star features…

Minderella

Currently for sale with Y.CO, this 57.3 metre Feadship was designed by Mauro Micheli with Frits De Voogt developing the naval architecture. Built in steel and aluminium, Minderella sleeps 10 guests in five cabins.

Utopia IV

Utopia IV was commissioned in November 2014 to replace Utopia III, the previous yacht of owners JR and Loren Ridinger. The 63 metre Rossinavi superyacht includes a number of standout features including custom made sculptures, a glass sided swimming pool and spacious beach club. Rossinavi previously described the boat as “the perfect compromise between a tri-deck motor yacht and a pure speed boat”.

Abbracci

Launched in 2012, Abbracci (ex-Serenity) was the largest displacement yacht launched by Heesen at the time. She features exterior design by Omega Architects and naval architecture by Heesen's in-house team in collaboration with Van Oossanen & Associates. Accommodation is for a total of 12 guests comprising a full-beam main deck master, full-beam VIP cabin, two double and two twins on the lower deck. Key features include an enclosed spa area complete with a steam bath, sauna and massage room.

Vijonara

Vijonara, the second hull in Pendennis' Hoek-designed Truly Classic 128 series, received her long awaited worldwide debut at this year's Monaco Yacht Show. We hopped on board to look around. The 38.8 metre sloop-rigged superyacht features a 2.85 metre bowsprit, which allows Vijonara to fly a downwind asymmetric spinnaker or a Code sail. The yacht was designed around the needs of family cruising, with accommodation for up to six guests split across three staterooms including an owner’s suite, a double cabin and a twin cabin.

Edesia

Designed by Stefano Righini and delivered in 2014 as one of Benetti's Classic 121 series, Edesia is currently for sale with Camper & Nicholsons for an asking price of €12,750,000. Edesia sports a bright interior designed by Francois Zuretti and can accommodated up to 12 guests in five staterooms. The master suite has a king size bed and large glass windows offering panoramic views.

Iceman

Currently listed for sale with KK Superyachts for an asking price of €4,500,000, Iceman was delivered in 2009. Accommodation is for eight guests in four cabins and quarters for four crew. Iceman also features a private sunbathing spot on the foredeck, complete with sun pads and Jacuzzi. The large open-plan saloon meanwhile has port and starboard black leather settees, coffee table and a bar.

Gladiator

Built to full Lloyd’s and MCA class and delivered in 2010, this 44.65 metre yacht was recently sold in August 2018. She was designed by Feadship de Voogt and Sinot Exclusive Yacht Design and can host up to ten guests in five cabins. Her large sundeck features a Jacuzzi while a spacious swimming platform sits on the aft deck. Her toy store meanwhile accommodates a steam room and plenty of toys including Jet Skis, SeaBobs and a 6.7 metre tender. Gladiator is currently listed for sale and charter with Y.CO.

Okto

We hoped on board this 66.4 motor yacht at the Superyacht Show in Barcelona. She was delivered by Italy’s ISA yard in 2014 and built to Northern European specifications and standards. Special features include a touch and go helipad, six metre swimming pool, guest elevator, owners’ balcony and four tender garages.

Adastra

When looking at her dramatic lines and futuristic trimaran form, it is easy to forget that Adastra was launched six years ago by McConaghy Boats. We stepped on board at the Antigua Charter Show to see what delights she has in store.

Book Ends

Serial owner Bob Book was almost ready to give up yachting when he laid eyes on Project Ruya, the 47 metre spec-built Heesen that was launched in early 2017. When perusing her bright, modern interior by Bannenberg & Rowell, it's easy to see why he was immediately won over and decided to snap her up. We stepped on board the 18th yacht to bear the name Book Ends at the 2017 Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show.
