The SuperYacht Times Synopsis, as brought to you by SYT iQ, gives you the rundown of the top business stories and market reports from last month.  

SYT Synopsis: A roundup of April 

Last month <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/6004" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Lazzarini Design Studio (Company)">Lazzarini Design</a> unveiled its plans for a new 169-metre project, Sovrano. The project takes its name from the word ‘sovereignty’ in order to represent its impressive dimensions.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/222610/image/large-ba49d7ef6f08472aafa69d2df6aed19e.png" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/222610">Sovrano has been conceived to be constructed in steel and lightweight carbon fibre composites. The overall shape of Sovrano has been carefully curated to provide the possibility of two heliports on either side. Alternatively, this space can be converted into a pool or spacious lounge area. The lower side of this expansion features a liftable platform that can descend into the waterline through four electronic winches. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/222612/image/large-138f67dff7301a51714eed0d309fe282.png" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/222612"><img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/222604/image/large-9c1643d279ba90f292ecf85bc59eb460.png" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/222604">Sovrano’s garage to the side offers plenty of space for tenders and is capable of hosting twin 15-metre tenders and up to six cars. A crane to the side of the garage allows for easy access in assisting them on to water or land. The transom of the yacht has two cranes and a lifting platform that allow the loading of various vehicles. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/222596/image/large-97d694d3d4a048d720263803c10c8170.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/222596"><img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/222594/image/large-383f239c23dd9a3191f375690e7268a7.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/222594"><img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/222592/image/large-60afd1795b001d8dd511eaf6b63a148c.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/222592">Sovrano has been designed with a private owner in mind, but she is also suitable for a group of owners that want to travel privately around the world in a hybrid solution between a private yacht and a cruise ship. The sides of the main deck are available to be extended from 22-metres to 33-metres to provide guests with more space. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/222586/image/large-ec0c376bbbb907a512c4a670dcdeab89.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/222586"><img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/222583/image/large-11c6ab370ba9f8749868f9266a10d344.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/222583"><img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/222588/image/large-190cef9aa757185dfd0f0a244bcb2019.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/222588">Sovrano will have three main floors that connect and overlook into a large openable patio area, known as the atrium, complete with a pool at the centre and various suites and gym facilities.

Here, tenders and vessels with a draft of up to 1.5-metres can be moored. When her tender garage doors are deployed, the doors transform into a balcony with a seating area.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/201364/image/large-171582d9bdbd52e8f6e3744710e03684.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/201364"><img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/201366/image/large-07a391d64f9a9bfc90604c439d847042.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/201366"><img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/201368/image/large-ea40de7e828166151aae0dad6e870c1e.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/201368">Additionally, Saturnia&nbsp;features a walkway which surrounds the main deck, allowing guests to access all deck space on board.

Lazzarini Design Studio’s latest design concept 100m superyacht Saturnia

Lazzarini Design Studio have released the truly radical design concept, the 100m superyacht Saturnia.

100m superyacht Saturnia: An out-of-this-world concept

Amphibious crab-like designs, futuristic interiors and underwater glass helipads — there is a lot to love about the <a href="https://www.superyachttimes.com/news/design" target="_blank">yacht design</a> concepts that have landed on the scene over the past month. Read on to see a selection of the latest concepts presented to the industry during January 2021.&nbsp; <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Article/52321" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Luxury 50m Explorer getaway yacht concept from MP Yacht Design (2021-01-25 15:30:00 +0100)">50m Explorer by MP Yacht Design</a><img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/185615/image/large-58a022aecb3ab73aff8fde72287d1b8a.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/185615">The design of this explorer-style 50.26-metre yacht, also named Explorer, has been optimised to comfortably accommodate up to 12 guests and 11 crew. The vessel comes with an efficient hull to provide long-range cruising and transpacific autonomy – which the designer said is to appeal to those owners wanting to travel for long periods of time to escape the pandemic. Notably, the yacht sports a large 115-square-metre aft deck to accommodate tenders, submarines, cars, and more. <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Article/52271" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Kyron Designs reveals 70m Nzuri expedition superyacht concept (2021-01-13 13:30:00 +0100)">70m Nzuri&nbsp;by Kyron Designs&nbsp;</a><img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/184136/image/large-187630de6604cf6f58f79d59fa6dd4e3.jpeg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/184136">This 70m concept marks the first release by the new startup design studio, which has networks in both New York and the Bahamas. In a word, the design of this yacht is futuristic, housing the latest window technology by Kinestral. She features a steel hull with a partial fibreglass superstructure, which means she can operate in all kinds of climates. The design includes 10 cabins providing accommodation for 20 guests and eight cabins sleeping 28 crew plus the captain. <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Article/52236" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Ludes designs sunken glass heli garage for new 107m yacht concept Ocean One (2021-01-11 12:00:00 +0100)">107m Ocean One by Ludes&nbsp;</a><img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/183962/image/large-79f652d5ee03362c8a9c2d9605c9ac10.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/183962">The OI yacht design concept by Ludes aims to be a chic vessel harking back to the “unobtrusive” looks of earlier yachts in the 1920s; the design pays homage to classic ocean liners. With an impressive length of 107 metres, she will have a beam of 17 metres and a total height above water of 27 metres. She will feature three pools, the largest of which will sit at 11.5 by 5.5 metres. In addition, she will also have a helipad, hydraulic sunken helicopter garage with glass walls. <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Article/52251" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Meet the €24m solar-powered amphibious catamaran concept (2021-01-07 16:30:00 +0100)">25m Pagurus by Lazzarini Design&nbsp;</a><img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/184099/image/large-4e41fd0d0156bd35b7c9d121f126fda1.jpeg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/184099">This crab-inspired yacht design from <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/6004" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Lazzarini Design Studio (Company)">Lazzarini Design</a> is the latest in the creator's line of nature-inspired concepts. Solar-powered and coming in at 25-metres, the “amphibious catamaran” draws its power from both sun and water. When the Pagurus reaches land it can increase its draft by lowering down the rotating cylinders to transform the catamaran into an amphibious vehicle, able to move on sand or mud terrains to speeds of up to 30kmh.<a data-gid="gid://syiq/Article/52365" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="120m Emir: The new green yacht concept with 2 helipads and multiple grand saloons (2021-02-03 15:30:00 +0100)"></a> <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Article/52365" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="120m Emir: The new green yacht concept with 2 helipads and multiple grand saloons (2021-02-03 15:30:00 +0100)"></a> <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Article/52365" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="120m Emir: The new green yacht concept with 2 helipads and multiple grand saloons (2021-02-03 15:30:00 +0100)"></a> <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Article/52365" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="120m Emir: The new green yacht concept with 2 helipads and multiple grand saloons (2021-02-03 15:30:00 +0100)"></a> <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Article/52365" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="120m Emir: The new green yacht concept with 2 helipads and multiple grand saloons (2021-02-03 15:30:00 +0100)">120m Emir by Gresham Yacht Design</a><img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/186499/image/large-ecb3f4f474e5e31fee49ae3b6819e9ee.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/186499">London design studio <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/4359" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Gresham Yacht Design (Company)">Gresham Yacht Design</a> has revealed its latest concept: the 120-metre Emir. The yacht features two certified helipads and space on board for 36 guests assisted by 40 crew. The yacht will contain a biodigester to eliminate organic waste, NOX and harmful particulates by up to 90%, among other features, to reduce her environmental impact. <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Article/52331" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="The Viking-inspired 26m yacht that uses AI to charter independently (2021-01-27 10:30:00 +0100)">26m Drakkar S by Max Zhivov</a><img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/185311/image/large-cb3b4318a08eade743df1ba676d07a82.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/185311">This Viking-inspired yacht design uses artificial intelligence, meaning it can be controlled by autopilot with the possibility of remote control and artificial intelligence allows her to moor and avoid potential obstacles. On board, guests can use their smartphone to set a destination for the yacht in a dedicated app and stay cruising for up to four days. Plus, on account of solar panels that cover 80 square metres on the yacht’s roof and an electric propulsion system, the Drakkar S is an environmentally-friendly vessel.<a data-gid="gid://syiq/Article/52343" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="33m yacht ROCK XL added to ROCK series by Vripack (2021-01-28 16:30:00 +0100)"></a> <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Article/52343" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="33m yacht ROCK XL added to ROCK series by Vripack (2021-01-28 16:30:00 +0100)"></a> <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Article/52343" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="33m yacht ROCK XL added to ROCK series by Vripack (2021-01-28 16:30:00 +0100)"></a> <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Article/52343" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="33m yacht ROCK XL added to ROCK series by Vripack (2021-01-28 16:30:00 +0100)"></a> <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Article/52343" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="33m yacht ROCK XL added to ROCK series by Vripack (2021-01-28 16:30:00 +0100)">30m ROCK XL by Vripack</a>&nbsp;<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/186095/image/large-02f230f10530cd6f7d338e8d3c2954b7.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/186095"><a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/15" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Vripack (Company)">Vripack</a>’s new yacht design takes their 25-metre explorer ROCK and adds not just size but some functional improvements.

The yacht subdivides the living spaces in two side hulls, connected to each other through a bridge tower deck station. In the immersed part of the yacht, the hulls are designed with a recess space that guests on each side two 6.5-metre steel cylinders, each one with a helical spiral flange like the thread of a screw.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/184074/image/large-ca58d1cf2573ab0b34eeee0a7ed0cb92.jpeg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/184074">The central part of the yacht features a crane platform, which is connected through four electric winches that can load and unload various objects, including an off-road vehicle.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/184073/image/large-b42946df10858a0cf3a3809b55e14dcd.jpeg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/184073">With the water friction the screw cylinders generate, energy is made available to recharge the yacht batteries while sailing. The cylinders are moved from an independent engine, each one connected to a transfluid transmission are able to generate motion in water (5 knots) and simultaneously energy.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/184072/image/large-b5e871101ffd0ee282fd9d4596689383.jpeg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/184072"><img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/184071/image/large-24a7b733d8b7804846f8b0cf69ace291.jpeg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/184071">Normal sailing propulsion happens on the new yacht concept via dual propellers stern drive coupled with twin 890hp diesel engines capable of moving the Pagurus to an estimated top speed of 24 knots. When the Pagurus reaches land it can increase its draft by lowering down the rotating cylinders to transform the catamaran into an amphibious vehicle, able to move on sand or mud terrains to speeds of up to 30kmh. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/184078/image/large-2ed3f3b411fd056460adebd0fa75f304.jpeg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/184078" style="box-sizing: inherit; border: 0px; font-family: &quot;Open Sans&quot;, sans-serif; position: relative; max-width: 100%; margin: 1rem 0px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: 13.6px; font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); text-decoration-thickness: initial; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial;"><img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/184075/image/large-6cbe94585f30d0af94b390ff34b1f4e5.jpeg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/184075">Pagurus can be built on demand from a starting price of €6,580,000 for a carbon version with a twin-jet drive, which can reach 32 knots.

Italian designer <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/6004" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Lazzarini Design Studio (Company)">Lazzarini</a> has unveiled his latest avant-garde superyacht design: the aptly named 137-metre 'avanguardia' concept.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/174024/image/large-9748646be3ec3a858d9838d0f2c3c37e.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/174024">Meaning 'vanguard' in English, the design takes its name from the positioning of the control tower which resembles the head of a swan. With the inspiration for the 'head' stemming from a 1970s Japanese manga, the swan head functions as a control tower to manoeuvre the superyacht.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/174049/image/large-b44719dfcb710b7c5ec891c21279765e.png" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/174049"><img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/174014/image/large-d5bcab9f4e5a8a5f3702079f3f3a045e.png" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/174014">The 'head' is detachable from the 'neck' and can be transformed into an auxiliary 16-metre boat, at which point the top part of the superyacht is then transformed into an auxiliary control tower.When the vessel is in motion, the 'head' adjusts avanguardia's position by lowering itself to the centre of the superyacht's body. &nbsp;<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/174063/image/large-dbe40fd06805ce8866a76a50c5c430fd.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/174063"><img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/174017/image/large-046cf66054fd59eaecd1668f82a2b95b.png" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/174017">The rear deck of the avanguardia concept incorporates a personal port for two jet capsules which can be attached to the structure of the vessel to become an auxiliary source of propulsion.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/174045/image/large-c6499984fa01085fd5a3f620a3836f8a.png" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/174045"> <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/174062/image/large-7436831cf5d725e66839062069c5b4c0.png" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/174062">Avanguardia is divided into five decks and could house up to 60 passengers on board, providing accommodation for up to 24 guests, 12 staff and 10 crew.
