The splendid 32.2-meter Sanlorenzo SL106 motor yacht Piacere III now sails under a new owner. This transpired via a deal between Gabriele Bacci of Sanlorenzo S.p.A., representing the seller, and Stratos Korais of Atalanta Marine S.A., who introduced the buyer. The notable Alessandro D’Este and Riccardo Piasenti of International Yachts Srl also played a significant role in the transaction.
Crafted in the prominent Italian shipyard, and delivered in 2019, Piacere III boasts construction in GRP to a full design by the renowned Italian designer Francesco Paszkowski Design. The yacht is one of 21 vessels delivered to date from Sanlorenzo’s illustrious SL106 line that reveals naval architecture developed in-house.
In a bold exhibition of Italian aesthetics and maritime prowess, DYDXL Design Forge uncovers its latest creation - the Awaha 160. This 48.8m ‘modern explorer’ yacht presents an unapologetic blend of utility and luxury, tantalising the yachting connoisseurs with its Polar Class 7 classification, a volume of 921GT, and spacious storage.
Capable of voyaging through taxing conditions, the Awaha 160 is equipped with a diesel-electric propulsion package. This allows it access to protected marine areas with navigation restrictions, extending the yacht’s ability to explore the planet’s most enchanting seas. Accommodations onboard are suitable for up to eight guests and an additional twelve crew members. The latter have private access to the crew quarters and a substantial, independent mess.
