37L (Legend) By Ocean Alexander
Production yacht builder Ocean Alexander is a well-recognized name for those who keep up with luxury yacht offerings. In recent years the yard has been making a thrust to revolutionize its offerings with ever-more stylish and modern yachts. In doing this, the available range has expanded and there are now four main categories that customers have to choose from; the Divergence, Revolution, Explorer and Legend. Divergence is OA's foray into the center console market. The other yachts from the remaining three ranges are for a crowd with a discerning eye for the finer things under 40-meters. The Legend series is what we'll be looking at in this feature. The yard offers the Legend 32L as well as the slightly larger 37L...
Wider Teams With Pajot For 145 Eco Yacht
A collaboration between Wider Yachts and Naval Architect Marc Pajot has yielded the Wider-Pajot 145 Eco Yacht. It is a blue-water sailing catamaran with some of the extending features Wider Yachts made themselves known for in the last few years. There isn't much widening and extending that can be done to a catamaran platform in the same way as a monohull but with the Wider-Pajot project, the team definitely sought to capitalize on the idea. Below, we can see the folding bulwarks on either side of the sugar-scoops as well as the transformer-type platforms that extend into the water...
39-meter Kando 130XL Explorer Design By AvA Yachts
We have heard about AvA Yachts before and this yard recently released a new design for another Kando series yacht. This time it is the Kando 130XL Explorer design.

Perhaps the most notable Kando design is the Kando 110 which is being built for former NBA star Tony Parker. For now the Kando 130XL is a design but the yard is confident that it will be their next major build...
