A collaboration between Cantieri di Pisa and T Mariotti, the 70m explorer yacht features interior design by Pisa-based Pulina Exclusive Interiors.

Cantieri di Pisa has revealed further details of the Super Polaris 70, which was announced in September as the first project in the Italian shipyard’s new collaboration with cruise ship builder T Mariotti.

The 70m explorer yacht can be built at T Mariott’s facilities Genoa, but otherwise the project spearheaded by Cantieri di Pisa has its heart in the shipyard’s home city, which influenced the choice of Pulina Exclusive Interiors as the superyacht’s interior designer.

Marco Massabò, Cantieri di Pisa’s CEO, said: “Our story and ties to the local area are pillars of the shipyard’s philosophy. We’ve chosen a world-renowned interior design firm whose innovative spirit and willingness to experiment we appreciate, but which has its roots and headquarters in Pisa.”

Antonio Luxardo, Cantieri di Pisa’s Chief Designer, added that the new project will be “paying tribute to and respecting the stylistic hallmarks that have characterised the glorious history of Cantieri di Pisa at the same time as introducing stylistic and functional innovations resulting from the shipyard’s signature ongoing research and development, and from listening to the needs of contemporary owners”.

Alessandro Pulina, founder and CEO of Pulina Exclusive Interiors, described the Super Polaris 70 as “an ‘oasis of comfort’ that is perfect in any setting, from tropical seas to the North and South Poles”. The steel-hulled superyacht has been designed for extended voyages in adventurous destinations and has a 6,500nm cruising range at 10 knots, powered by a pair of CAT 3512 engines.

The four-deck superyacht is equipped with six double cabins, including a 95sqm owner’s apartment on the main deck, extended with two 20sqm balconies, as well as a 60sqm upper deck VIP cabin with two 5sqm balconies. As well as extensive guest accommodation, there’s also accommodation for 16 crew in 10 cabins.

Key features include a winter garden on the main deck for colder cruising, while the open stern area can be used as a volleyball, basketball or padel court in warmer climes. An impressive beach club spanning 180sqm offers a swimming pool with counter-current features, a private spa and a personal gym.

Interiors have been furnished in neutral tones, with walnut wood and travertine marble finishes. According to the yard, the modern interior design of the Super Polaris 70 “prioritises Italian craftsmanship”, with “raw local materials” used throughout.

“We tried to use the neutral shades of natural fabrics – linen and cashmere – with a nuanced palette of light colour shades plus a few contrasts in order to create a dreamlike environment when cruising,” Pulina stated.
