Genoa-based shipyard Tankoa has used the opportunity of the Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show to present a new 63-metre concept called Project Stardust.
The concept's sporty exterior comes from the drawing boards of Abbasli Design Studio, while Giuseppina Arena has crafted the yacht's celestial-themed interior.
Yachting influencer Denis Suka, also known as The Yacht Mogul, has teamed up with the Italian yard to unveil the project. "We are thrilled with the results of this project," said Guido Orsi, marketing manager at Tankoa Yachts. "It's a testament to the perfect collaboration between Tankoa, The Yacht Mogul, and our talented design partners. The Stardust yacht is a superyacht of magical proportions, promising an unforgettable experience onboard."
The design is conceived with a generous open beach area with a waterfront pool and twin unfolding balconies that create a connection to the water. This space adjoins a wellness centre with an indoor spa and gym.
All of the yacht's five guest cabins are located on the main deck and benefit from floor-to-ceiling windows, making this concept well-suited to private yacht charters. There is a full-beam VIP suite on the main deck and an owner's cabin covering the entire upper deck, which looks out over a private pool, sunbeds, and a helipad.
One of the yacht's most unique features is the observation deck-crow's nest hybrid, which creates an open-air setting for enjoying while underway or at anchor.
Tankoa has explained that by night, the yacht's exterior decks are illuminated by a collection of twinkling lights that turn the yacht into "interstellar spaceship".
The yard has a number of projects in the work currently, with the largest being its 58-metre T580. There are currently two Tankoa yachts for sale that are publicly listed, one of which is the brand-new 49.9-metre Grey.
