55m metallic Admiral superyacht Raja² delivered

 The Italian Sea Group's 55-metre Admiral superyacht Raja² has been delivered and is now located in Antibes, France, according to BOATPro. She will now embark on her inaugural charter season, where the yacht is available for charter with IYC.

This follows the launch ceremony in February this year, which took place at the yard's Marina di Carrara headquarters in the presence of the owner. Previously known as Project 600, Raja² belongs to the yard's S-Force 55 series and is the sistership to Geco, which was delivered in 2020. Exterior and interior lines were penned in-house, with Raja²'s "distinctly sporty" exterior profile characterised by a plumb bow, metallic paint and high bulwarks on the aft deck, sheltering the beach club.

Accommodation is for up to 12 guests across a six-cabin layout, including an owner's suite located on the main deck. The suite comes with a folding balcony for maximum privacy without compromising on ocean views.

Interior imagery is undisclosed, although earlier renderings reveal a neutral palette with pops of colour and marble panelling found throughout the living spaces. The main saloon is particularly eclectic, featuring a plum chaise lounge and a cascading chandelier feature over the formal dining room.

On the lower deck, guests will find the VIP suite, two double suites and two twin cabins. There are further quarters for 12 crew.

The sundeck is a major social hub, fitted with sunloungers, sofa seating and a glass-walled swimming pool which lends the exterior profile extra visual interest. For those seeking adventure, she also has a variety of water toys to choose from and is designed with a touch-and-go helipad, gym and beach club with easy water access.

Powered by twin Caterpillar engines, the motor yacht can reach a cruising speed of 16.5 knots and a top speed of 18 knots. 

This follows the launch of the first superyacht from Admiral's 72-metre Giorgio Armani-designed series, Admiral Armani 72m, also known as Project Metamorphosis, last month.
