Sunreef launches first 100 Power Eco

The Polish shipyard has released the first Eco version of its 100 Power, currently the brand’s flagship powercat

 

Sunreef-first-100-Power-Eco

 

Sunreef Yachts has released its first 100 Sunreef Power Eco, Double Happiness, whose entire hull and superstructure are painted in a dark shade described by the Polish shipyard as ‘Lava Stone’.

 

Featuring integrated solar panels on the flybridge hardtop and forward overhang, the powercat offers silent, fume-free cruising through four 180kW electric motors and a 990kWh battery bank, with onboard technology including two range extenders.

 

Sunreef-first-100-Power-Eco

 

Including Petite Belle delivered earlier in the year, the Polish shipyard had previously launched three hulls of the classic version of the 100 Power, which is 94ft long and has a beam of over 44ft. However, Double Happiness is the first to include the shipyard’s renowned Eco technology.

 

“The combination of eco-conscious power solutions, expansive spaces and bespoke craftsmanship cements Double Happiness as one of the standout yachts in the 100 Sunreef Power series,” Sunreef stated.

 

Sunreef-first-100-Power-Eco

 

Double Happiness features two large fold-down platforms that create a walk-around waterside beach club, ideal as a base for lounging, swimming and watersports, with the aft garage accommodating two jet-skis and water toys.

 

Nine steps on each side lead up to the full-beam cockpit, which offers covered alfresco dining for 10. Sliding glass doors lead into the vast saloon, where the dark palette continues throughout the interior.

The saloon has a fixed, lengthways dining table for 10 to starboard, alongside a carpeted lounge to port featuring a huge L-shaped sofa, coffee table and armchair. A pop-up TV is discreetly integrated into the forward bulkhead.

 

Forward on the main deck is the master suite, offering “sweeping panoramic views seldom found in vessels of this size”, according to Sunreef. The suite includes a king-size bed, extensive storage, a luxurious en-suite bathroom, and direct access to the enormous bow terrace, which has two L-shaped sofas, tables and six sunpads side by side. The hulls accommodate four en-suite guest cabins.

 

Sunreef-first-100-Power-Eco

 

The expansive flybridge can serve as the yacht’s social epicentre, with a C-shaped sofa and a fully equipped bar making it “an elevated retreat for meals, sunset cocktails or gatherings in the open air”, as Sunreef describes.

 

“The layout of Double Happiness ensures both sociability and privacy,” the shipyard continued. “Carefully separated guest and crew zones, along with generous outdoor living areas, make the yacht exceptionally versatile.”

The French catamaran builder has sold two hybrid electric versions of the new FP44, which had its world premiere at Cannes in September.

Fountaine Pajot has announced the sales of two ODSea+ hybrid electric versions of its new FP44 through Korean dealer HBS Marine. The FP44 sailing cat was among the French brand’s world premieres at this year’s Cannes Yachting Festival, along with the entry-level FP41 and the Power 80 flagship powercat.

 

Kevin Corfa, Fountaine Pajot’s Head of Asia, stated that the two FP44 sailing cats ordered for Korea would arrive in mid-2026 and would be the brand’s first electric models in Asia. “There’s strong interest in Korea, where our dealer HBS Marine has been working closely with the Marine Department over the last year,” Corfa said.

 

One of the buyers attended this year’s Fountaine Pajot Open Days in July, a three-day event held in La Rochelle’s Vieux Port (Old Port) that attracted 400 visitors including 55 dealers, with highlights including over 40 sea trials.

“It was while sailing with us that he really made his decision to buy,” Corfa said. “It’s a statement that the Open Days event works, even for Asian clients who traditionally only go to bigger boat shows like the Cannes Yachting Festival.

 

“This year’s Open Days was a really great edition and in 2026, we will have an even greater number of Asia-based clients and prospects flying to France for this.”

Oryx adds 37LX to new-look range

SHARE

The Gulf Craft Group brand has expanded its line of sport cruisers with the enclosed 37LX, which adds to three new models launched earlier in the year.

 

 

Oryx has released the 37LX, the enclosed version of the open 37FX that was among the brand’s three world premieres at the 2025 Dubai International Boat Show.

 

The 32FX and 47LX were also among the new models that launched a new generation for the Gulf Craft Group brand, which focuses on sport cruisers from 10-14m “that combine sleek styling with robust functionality for fun and family cruising”, according to the shipyard.

 

Oryx, Gulf Craft Group, 37LX, Abu Dhabi International Boat Show, 37FX, 32FX, 47LX, Dubai International Boat Show

 

The 37LX walkaround, which debuted at the Abu Dhabi International Boat Show in November, has an overall length of 37ft 9in, a beam of 11ft 9in and a draft of 2ft 3in. Built on a fibre-reinforced plastic (FRP) hull, the yacht can be fitted with three Mercury outboard engines and has a fuel tank of 1,135 litres and fresh water capacity of 113 litres, allowing for extended outings.

 

The aft deck includes a wet bar forward of the engines and an aft-facing sofa sheltered by an overhang. Symmetrical side passages lead up to a foredeck with an integrated sunpad accompanied by fitted drinks holders.

 

Oryx, Gulf Craft Group, 37LX, Abu Dhabi International Boat Show, 37FX, 32FX, 47LX, Dubai International Boat Show

 

Like the 47LX, the 37LX features an enclosed, fully glazed pilothouse, where an aft sofa faces forward to a table and an impressive triple-seat helm station with a reverse-angled windscreen. Port stairs lead down to a lobby with access to a double cabin midships, a bathroom with separate shower, galley to port, storage and a forward V-shaped dinette that can be converted to a sleeping area.

 

The flooring throughout the lower deck and cockpit is optionally finished in high-quality synthetic teak, which offers durability, grip and easy maintenance. The seating across in the pilothouse and cockpit features premium upholstery, accented with contrast stitching and trims that help deliver a bold, sporty look in keeping with the series’ performance-focused DNA.

 

Oryx, Gulf Craft Group, 37LX, Abu Dhabi International Boat Show, 37FX, 32FX, 47LX, Dubai International Boat Show

 

“Built to serve as a dynamic day boat or a comfortable weekender, the 37LX provides both safety and comfort with its excellent seakeeping, high bulwarks and ergonomic handrails,” Oryx stated. “Meanwhile, the interior offers protection from the elements and extended usability – whether anchored at dusk, cruising in warm climates or navigating changeable weather.”

Sanlorenzo reveals 58Steel

Designed by Zuccon International Project, the successor to the 57Steel features an all-new diesel-electric hybrid propulsion system.

 

Sanlorenzo, 58Steel, Perla Lunar, Zuccon International Project, Massimo Perotti

 

Sanlorenzo has delivered the first 58Steel, Perla Lunar, with a second unit already in production. Featuring an overall length of 58.25m and an 11.25m beam, the new 1,165GT tri-deck has been described by the Italian shipyard as “a refined and extended successor to the acclaimed 57Steel”.

 

Zuccon International Project designed the exteriors of the 58Steel, which is based on a new platform with an expanded beam and includes diesel-electric hybrid technology that enables zero-emissions cruising.

 

 

Massimo Perotti, Sanlorenzo’s Executive Chairman, said: “The 58Steel embodies the belief of a superyacht that redefines proportion, privacy and performance, offering a new dimension of silent, sustainable cruising. It represents our ambition to remain the benchmark in yachts up to 2,000GT, with our expanded steel line now spanning six individual superyachts that set the standard for design and desirability.”

 

At the stern of the 58Steel, the beach club opens on three sides and includes a bar, hammam, gym and beauty salon. On the main deck, the aft cockpit is dominated by a large infinity pool, while the interior includes the main saloon and a ‘Supreme VIP’ suite. The lower deck includes two full-beam VIP cabins and two more guest cabins, and the crew quarters forward.

 

 

The forward part of the upper deck is dedicated to the owner and includes a panoramic, full-beam bedroom with full-height glazing facing a foredeck terrace with a pool. Other aspects of the owner’s area include an office, dressing area, spa bathroom and a lounge or saloon that can be converted into a private cinema.

 

The upper deck also includes an aft deck suitable for alfresco dining, while the sundeck includes open social areas aft and the wheelhouse.

 

Main-deck saloon

 

The yacht’s interiors, crafted by Sanlorenzo’s Style Department, feature a warm, tactile colour palette combining dark woods with Calacatta Borghini marble, mother-of-pearl, and champagne-finished accents.

 

The diesel-electric propulsion system is the first of its kind in Sanlorenzo’s steel line, enabling up to two hours of silent cruising or up to eight hours of zero-emissions hotel operations at anchor. The system is based on five 425kW generators and a 1MWh-capacity battery pack, while pods with rotating propellers improve manoeuvrability and reduce vibration and noise.

 

Upper-deck saloon

 

The entire engine room has been re-engineered to occupy a single deck, freeing up more than 40sqm of space to expand the guest and beach areas.

 

Tommaso Vincenzi, Sanlorenzo’s CEO, said: “With its diesel-electric propulsion system at the core, the 58Steel unlocks new horizons of freedom: more space, more light, greater efficiency and a profound connection to the sea.”

 

Owner’s suite

 

The Italian shipyard launched its first metal superyacht, the 40Alloy, in 2010. Its current Superyacht collection includes the Alloy (44.5m), 500Exp (47m), 44X-Space, 50X-Space, 50Steel, 52Steel, 57Steel, 58Steel, 64Steel and 74Steel, with the launch of hull one of the flagship announced in early October.

This year’s Nautique IWWF Asia Wakefest Hong Kong shattered participation records, attracting 182 athletes from 12 different countries and regions. It was the first time an event aside from a World Championship had hosted over 10 national delegations, another indication of the event’s growing significance on the global stage.

 

Organised by the Hong Kong China Wakesports Association (HKCWA), the three-day event in November was held for the first time in the waters off Shing Fung Road Park, along the former airport runway, which gave athletes and spectators a view of the new Kai Tak Stadium.

Asia Yachting, the official Hong Kong dealer of title sponsor Nautique, again supplied a Nautique G23 as the competition’s official tow boat. “Renowned for its perfect wake and industry-leading performance, the Nautique G23 provided athletes with the ideal conditions to push the boundaries of the sport,” the dealership stated.

 

The event concluded with a closing banquet and an awards ceremony honouring the top athletes across various categories.

 

 

Kelly Yeung, Asia Yachting’s Senior Marketing Manager, said: “We are deeply encouraged by the growing momentum behind Asian wakesports. The steady growth in athlete numbers and spectator interest demonstrates the sport’s bright future. As Nautique’s official dealer, Asia Yachting remains committed to fostering this development and elevating competitive standards across the region.”

Pearl Yachts has announced the arrival of a new Pearl 82 motoryacht in Thailand, signifying the brand’s entry into the Southeast Asian yachting market. The flybridge motoryacht’s home port will be at the 450-berth Ocean Marina Jomtien, Southeast Asia’s largest marina.

 

Iain Smallridge, Pearl’s Managing Director, said: “The arrival of the first Pearl 82 in Thailand heralds a new era for our brand in Asia. It is a tangible testament to our vision of exporting boutique British craftsmanship and sophisticated design to a global stage. We are not merely selling yachts; we are offering a unique ownership experience.

 

“Our strategy is one of focused growth, maintaining our identity as a builder of a limited number of high-quality yachts, each one a masterpiece of innovation. Seeing a Pearl grace the world-class cruising grounds of Thailand is the perfect realisation of this vision.”

 

Motoryacht, superyacht, Pearl Yachts, Pearl 82, Bill Dixon, Kelly Hoppen, Iain Smallridge

 

Designed by Bill Dixon with interiors styled by Kelly Hoppen CBE, the Pearl 82 has been described by the shipyard as the “most compact superyacht on the market” and can reach 32 knots with the standard option of twin 1,650hp MAN engines.

 

Unusually for a yacht of this size, the Pearl 82 boasts a main-deck master suite, which also has access to a private foredeck terrace. The lower deck includes four guest cabins and accommodation for three crew forward of the engine room.

 

Owners can choose from two aft cockpit layouts: Veranda, with two facing sofas arranged lengthways, or Riviera, with a large island sunpad and fold-down balconies on both sides.

 

The raised pilothouse model also features a flybridge featuring a sliding hardtop, C-shaped dinette for alfresco dining, wet bar, optional hot tub and sunpads. The Pearl 82 includes a garage that can carry a Williams SportJet 345 tender, Sea-Doo Spark jetski and Seabob.

Custom Line to debut Saetta 128’ in 2026

SY Design is responsible for the exterior styling of the 40m planing yacht as the Bologna-based studio collaborates with Ferretti Group for the first time.

Custom Line is scheduled to launch the first Saetta 128’ at the Ferretti Group Superyacht Yard in Ancona in 2026. The 128’ will be Custom Line’s first new model since Saetta – meaning lightning or bolt – was introduced as the name of the brand’s planing series, which is produced alongside the Navetta displacement line and aluminium alloy builds like the flagship Custom Line 50.

 

The Saetta 128’ is also the Ferretti Group’s first collaboration with SY Design, which is responsible for the yacht’s trapezoid-inspired exterior styling. ACPV Architects – led by co-founders Antonio Citterio and Patricia Viel – handles the interior, having worked on the brand’s yachts since the Navetta 30.

 

Custom Line, Saetta 128’, Ferretti Group, SY Design, Veronica Yien, Matteo Sassone, ACPV Architects, Antonio Citterio, Patricia Viel

 

Both studios collaborated on the Saetta 128’ with Ferretti Group’s Product Strategy and Engineering departments, while the Custom Line Atelier in-house team defines the spaces, style and customisation of each yacht ordered by customers.

 

SY Design was co-founded in 2022 by Matteo Sassone and Veronica Yien. Sassone spent the previous nine years at Francesco Paszkowski Design, the studio responsible for the exterior of the Saetta 106’, Saetta 120’, Saetta 140’ and previous Custom Line planing yachts.

 

A tri-deck design, like the Saetta 140’, the Saetta 128’ has an overall length of 39.8m, a beam of 7.7m and a sub-300GT volume.

 

Custom Line, Saetta 128’, Ferretti Group, SY Design, Veronica Yien, Matteo Sassone, ACPV Architects, Antonio Citterio, Patricia Viel

 

Sassone stated: “We were hugely motivated by the challenge of creating a new tri-deck model but one with sporty, dynamic lines because the Saetta 128’ has a planing hull. Our goal was to innovate the distinctive features of the range and integrate new character traits that can act as a springboard for the future.”

 

Equipped with two 2,638hp mtu M96L engines, the yacht is predicted to have a top speed of 22 knots and a cruising speed of 19 knots, with a 1,000nm range at 11 knots. Cruising comfort is optimised by trim interceptors and stabiliser fins, with gyroscopic stabilisers available to further reduce rolling.

 

In terms of layouts, the main deck includes a 33sqm cockpit, 40 sqm saloon and dining area, galley to port and starboard access to the 37sqm owner’s suite, while the lower deck includes four guest cabins and accommodation for six crew.

 

Custom Line, Saetta 128’, Ferretti Group, SY Design, Veronica Yien, Matteo Sassone, ACPV Architects, Antonio Citterio, Patricia Viel

 

The upper deck features a 20sqm skylounge that can be opened on both sides and aft, where it leads out to a 40sqm aft deck. Forward of the wheelhouse is a welcoming social area with two facing C-shaped sofas and an optional whirlpool tub. Outdoor areas continue on the 30sqm sundeck, which can be fitted with a large sunbathing area forward and a seating area aft.

 

For interior décor, ACPV offers Perfect and Classic ‘mood’ options. Perfect includes chocolate and mocha-coloured lacquer, fine walnut and maple parquet for the floors, white marble and ivory wallpaper, while Classic features woods such as oak and wallpapers with a more linear pattern.

 

Custom Line, Saetta 128’, Ferretti Group, SY Design, Veronica Yien, Matteo Sassone, ACPV Architects, Antonio Citterio, Patricia Viel

 

“The interior design is perfectly in sync with the signature sleek hull lines of the Saetta Line,” said co-founder Patricia Viel. “The flowing design of the window frames and ceiling cut-outs, taken together with the sleek lines of the custom-built furnishings and freestanding pieces, gives the project a strong sense of dynamism.

 

“The construction details are at once basic and refined, featuring exquisite cabinetry and a meticulously tailored approach. The clean, pared-down lines tap into tradition, reinterpreted through contemporary language and timeless elegance.”

 

The Saetta 128’ can be certified according to IMO Tier III regulations by implementing an SCR (Selective Catalytic Reduction) system that reduces nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions by up to 70 per cent.

 

Custom Line, Saetta 128’, Ferretti Group, SY Design, Veronica Yien, Matteo Sassone, ACPV Architects, Antonio Citterio, Patricia Viel

 

Giordano Pellacani, Ferretti Group’s CCO, said: “Custom Line Saetta 128’ perfectly embodies our approach to growth, raising the level of every project and in this case extending a hugely successful range while maximising its strong points.

 

“We want to offer Custom Line owners ever higher standards of well-being, liveability and personalisation of the onboard experience. Custom Line Saetta 128’ combines innovation, construction quality and meticulously tailored detailing in a magnificent tri-deck that is unique in the world of high-end yachting.”

The Italian Sea Group has appointed Asiamarine as the authorised sales agent for Tecnomar for Lamborghini Yachts across 11 markets in Asia. The markets comprise four in Greater China (mainland China, Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan) and seven in Southeast Asia (Singapore, Thailand, Malaysia, Indonesia, Philippines, Vietnam and Cambodia).

 

Asiamarine will officially announce the collaboration in a purpose-built Tecnomar for Lamborghini Yachts Lounge at the 2025 Hong Kong International Boat Show in Club Marina Cove from December 4-7.

 

The showcase will feature scale models of the Tecnomar for Lamborghini 63 accompanied by immersive design materials, performance briefings, a curated brand experience next to the Lamborghini-inspired cocktail bar, and a special display from long-term Lamborghini partner Roger Dubuis. In early 2026, Asiamarine will host private launch events in Bangkok and Singapore.

Tecnomar for Lamborghini 101

 

The Italian Sea Group – whose brands include Admiral, Tecnomar, Perini Navi and Picchiotti, as well as NCA Refit – introduced the Lamborghini brand collaboration in 2020 by announcing the Tecnomar for Lamborghini 63, which Tecnomar also refers to as the LMB63. First launched in 2021, the 63-footer has already racked up over 35 units, with Conor McGregor among high-profile owners.

 

The sub-brand will extend its portfolio with the Tecnomar for Lamborghini 101, a sportbridge motoryacht featuring naval architecture by The Italian Sea Group and design by both Tecnomar Centro Stile and Lamborghini Centro Stile. Design inspiration for the 101-footer comes from Lamborghini’s new hybrid hypercar, Fenomeno, which sports the same shade of yellow.

Outfitting has begun on hull one, which is scheduled to debut in 2027. Fitted with three mtu 16V 2000 M96L engines, rated 2,600hp each, the yacht has an estimated top speed of 45 knots and cruising speed of 35 knots.

 

Raphael Sachs, Asiamarine’s Commercial Director and Brand Manager for Tecnomar for Lamborghini Yachts, said: “Tecnomar for Lamborghini Yachts delivers excitement and emotion unlike anything else in this segment. Our goal is to create an ownership journey that matches that energy, from the first interaction to long-term care.

 

“With dedicated events in Hong Kong, Bangkok and Singapore, we are establishing a solid foundation for the brand across Asia.”

The Swedish builder is succeeding its 11 series with the extended and upgraded Tender 12, Weekender 12 and Commuter 12.

Nimbus Boats – whose dealers include Asiamarine – will stage the world premieres of its three new 12 series models indoors at Boot Dusseldorf 2026, which will be held in Germany from January 17-25. The Tender 12, Weekender 12 and Commuter 12 all share the same platform, which is based on the air-lubricated, twin-stepped hull used for the 11 series, now further stiffened by vacuum infusion.

 

The 12 series boats are 41ft 7in (12.7m), with the extra foot compared to the 11 series (40ft 7in) due to an extended swim platform. For outboard engines, Nimbus offers an optional wraparound hydraulic swim platform, which can also serve as a passarelle.

Tender 12 with outboard engines

 

Standard propulsion is two 300hp Mercury Verado V8 outboard engines, with 425hp Mercury Verado V10s as an option, while the enclosed Commuter 12 and open Tender 12 are also available with two 320hp Volvo Penta D4-DPI inboard engines. The shipyard predicts that the B10 category yachts, which have a beam of 11ft 4in (3.46m), can achieve a top speed over 45 knots.

 

“The 12 Series builds on the award-winning design introduced with the 11 Series, maintaining the low planning threshold and exceptional seaworthy performance,” Nimbus stated. “The hull delivers handling you can trust at 45-plus knots while running dry and stable in real conditions.”

Other changes include a new hull decor with the Nimbus logo in polished stainless steel, new stainless steel railings, and new helm seats custom-designed to “deliver exceptional comfort for extended time at the helm”.

 

Both the Tender 12 and Weekender 12 now include a balcony starboard of the main social area, which includes the brand’s signature flexible furniture. The Tender 12 has a longer, wider T-top with solar panels and acrylic see-through glass sections with sunblock. As well as a symmetrical, walkaround design, the main deck includes an aft sofa, U-shaped dinette and a triple-seat helm station.

The Weekender 12 is now offered with a hardtop or in a new Targa version with an arch and foldout canopy. Compared to the Tender 12, the asymmetrical Weekender 12 is distinguished by longer side windows, a single helm seat to starboard, extended seating areas on the port side, one main side passage to starboard, plus increased storage for gear and water toys.


The Commuter 12, which has a fully enclosed deckhouse, features a re-designed outdoor aft deck with more usable space and a folding backrest on the sofa. The interior includes a galley to port, dinette with facing sofas to starboard, and a twin-seat helm.

Beyond the visible changes, the entire 12 Series incorporates improvements to ventilation, lighting, sound routing and serviceability. New windscreen-wiper systems and updated illumination enhance visibility and ambience across all models. Each model includes a foredeck with integrated sunpad, and two cabins and a bathroom below deck.

 

Jonas Göthberg, Commercial Director at Nimbus Boats, said: “Our owners told us what they loved most. The 12 Series delivers more of exactly that. These aren’t changes for the sake of change. They’re refinements that serve ease of use, social connection and time together on the water.”

Riva 58’ Capri strengthens Open series

The iconic Italian brand has revealed further details of its new 58’ Capri, which follows larger Open series models by including a hardtop.

 

 

Riva has revealed further details of the 58’ Capri, an evolution of the 56’ Diable. Part of the Italian builder’s Open series of cruisers that range from the Iseo Super (27ft) to the 76’ Bahamas Super, the 58’ Capri’s design continues the brand’s collaboration with Officina Italiana Design, which has designed for Riva since Mauro Micheli and Sergio Beretta co-founded the Bergamo-based studio in 1994.

 

While the 58’ Capri – which debuted at the 2025 Cannes Yachting Festival – shares the platform of the 56’ Diable, the new model adds a curved hardtop, as featured on both the 68’ Diable and 76’ Bahamas Super. The hull is painted Shark Grey and features Bright Black detailing.

 



“The market had been sensing the need for a yacht of this size, but with a more enclosed character,” explained Micheli, the studio’s Chief Designer.

 

“The Riva 58’ Capri is, in essence, the ideal yacht to enjoy as a day cruiser. We also imagine her as a perfect tender to a seaside villa. Equally suited for short cruises, she offers the highest levels of comfort and attention to detail, hallmarks of Riva’s enduring refinement.”

 

 

Aft, the swim platform includes access to a garage that can accommodate a Williams TurboJet 325 tender, while symmetrical steps lead up to a large, aft-facing sunpad. The covered area includes an aft-facing L-shaped dinette with a folding table to port, while forward is a forward-facing L-shaped sofa. To starboard is a bar unit with a sink, fridge and icemaker, plus a single-seat helm station.

 

The roof has an integrated, electrically-controlled soft top, with owners able to adjust the amount of light and shade that filters into the cockpit. The foredeck adds to the outdoor areas with a large integrated sunpad.

 

 

The lower deck, finished in a glossy chocolate wenge wood and stainless-steel accents, features a lower lounge and three cabins including a full-beam en-suite master aft and an en-suite forward. To port is a third cabin for either crew with a private bathroom and direct access to the cockpit, or a guest cabin with two bunk beds and direct access from the lower-deck hallway.

 

Suitable for open sea cruising, with CE Class A certification, the yacht can reach a top speed of 33 knots powered by two 1,000hp MAN V8 engines in the standard configuration, and reach 37 knots with the upgraded 1,200hp versions. Owners can also opt to install a Seakeeper NG6 gyroscopic stabiliser.
