Part of a multi-yacht contract signed by the former HDW shipyard in Germany, the public saw Odessa II on sea trials in April of this year. Some reports suggest the deal stipulated that the yard build upward of six yachts under that contract.
By now, the world knows that the late Steve Jobs commissioned Venus and died before her completion. That much was revealed in his biography and verified by designer Philippe Starck.
The largest yacht built by Italy-based CRN splashed in January, to great fanfare. The owner’s family attended along with 3,000 others, including every craftsperson who worked on her and their families, residents of CRN’s home base of Ancona and even the Chinese ambassador to Italy.

Springtime each year sees Molo Vecchio, the historic port of Genoa in Italy, packed with charter yachts eager to show how good they are to an assembled audience of charter brokers. The 25th commemorative edition of the MYBA Charter Show in late April and early May did not disappoint. More than 60 yachts attended.
