109-meter OceAnco Project 'Bravo'
Dutch custom superyacht builder OceAnco has had a very busy couple of months. Their latest activity involved the reception of the 109-meter superyacht Project 'Bravo' which was technically launched from their shipbuilding yard at Zwijnenburg. The new yacht is build number Y718 at OceAnco and is now inside the new state-of-the-art shed that Project Jubilee (Y714) emerged from earlier this month. Project Bravo will be the second superyacht to be launched from the new shed in 2018 but for now we have a pretty good idea how she will look thanks to photos by Dutch Yachting...

'BENSHIP 8' Starts Construction At Benetti Sail Division
For a while Benetti Sail Division has been known for building classic-looking and inspired yachts with many elements that were popular from the bye-gone era.

This 44-foot speedster recently started construction and is presently for sale...

Monte Carlo Yachts MCY96 Model Added To Lineup
The latest addition to the Nuvolari & Lenard designed MCY branded yachts is the MCY96. This should be a good step-up model for owners who do not want to acquire a 100+ footer. The new model also slots perfectly between the MCY86 and the MCY105. The MCY96 is also off to a good start in terms of sales with the first three units of the new line reported as sold...

This 'Revolutionary' design has been ordered by a customer and the Jongert yard is going to tackle the build with Vripack behind the design.

Second Mulder 36-meter Starts Construction
Dutch yacht builder Mulder Yachts started construction on the second Mulder ThirtySix yacht. As far it is known, there is not an owner for this build and so it is being built on speculation. The build will follow a similar trend as the first while the yard tries to secure a buyer. We will imagine that Claydon Reeves is responsible for the exterior design in conjunction with the Mulder Yard based on the first build...
98-meter Superyacht "Aviva" Launches At A&R
The flagship of German superyacht builder Abeking & Rasmussen has been splashed. The 98-meter superyacht is the next superyacht for an experienced owner who spends alot of time onboard. It is a step-up in size for them too as this one is 98-meters LOA. The design of the new "Aviva" is by Reymond Langton in collaboration with Toby Silverton, showcasing a relatively straight and long bow. Certain design attributes are reminiscent of the owner's previous yacht but that is perhaps where the similarities end...

Three internal decks will be available to the owner and guests along with an expansive sun deck. If she is going to be in the charter business much like the previous yacht of the same name, the decks will be purposefully oriented to facilitate this service...
Horizon FD85 Yacht "Skyline" Under Construction
The story of how "Skyline" is coming together at this point is an interesting one. The yacht is being built for a customer that is stepping up from a 50-foot yacht. Perhaps they did not intend to be building a new boat so soon as they have been enjoying that boat since December 2014. The orientation captain of that craft told the couple -back in December 2014- that in two years they would be needing a larger boat, to which they thought the idea was ludicrous...
