. Blue Dream II-Green Superyacht By Aras Kazara

Yachts have always been known for their eminence, catering to the proverbial ‘high’ society historically, since Charles II of England selected this vessel of choice on his return to Britain from Holland, for his restoration. And now it will take the eminent and rather important ‘green’ step forward, with innovative conceptions such as Blue Dream II-Green coming into the market.


Designed by Aras Kazar, this 67m long marine craft will feature a simplistic exterior, which would be rather in stark contrast with its ostentatious interior. Constructed from steel and aluminum, the four deck superyacht will have a capacity for 12 guests including her owner and captain. The spatial zoning will be efficiently envisaged with two guest suites situated on the main deck and a further two suites on the lower deck for up to six guests. The master suite will incorporate a plethora of luxury elements like a private office, a bar and even a Jacuzzi. The main deck will be divided into a main lounge area, a formal dining/conference room, a library, a gym and two Jacuzzis. The interior color combination is touted to be chocolate brown with a pristine white theme.

Now moving on to the sustainable elements, the craft will feature an advanced array of solar panels. The exterior will be designed in such a way so as to allow the optimum usage of clean solar energy for all the on-board facilities and systems. Aras Kazar says:
“Blue Dream II is an environment friendly yacht that will generate 100 per sent of its electricity from the sun. The superyacht has been designed to provide 360 degree views of the ocean thanks to large windows.”

The performance specs are estimated to be as follows – the yacht will have a top speed of 30 knots and a cruising range of 2,500 nm at 20 knots.

Open 90m Yacht Concept By Van Geest Design

While the average individual might not find it to be affordable, Van Geest Design (VGD) has created a true masterpiece with their Open 90 Yacht Design. This yacht is in its early stages of design of course, and because of that it is currently being developed for a European shipyard yet to be disclosed to the public. What can be disclosed however are a few of the specifications surrounding this yacht as well as the fact that anyone who rides on it is going to enjoy themselves immensely.

It has been stated by Van Geist that the Open 90 is being designed in an attempt to pursue and even combine the interactions between the interior and the exterior. This will effectively extend the living room and lounge areas to the exterior in an actual terrace arrangement. As with any boat however you might be wondering about the safety features, and as you will find out, there are plenty of safety features built into this boat.

It will be found that there are various pieces of safety equipment in the bulwarks as well as the forward and aft sections. Each of these sections feature a framed glass window that permits you to see the outboard with zero obstruction. In addition to aesthetics, it will also allow light to pass through which will permit for a more natural experience.

The designs as of right now will permit for sixteen guests on the main deck, and the lower deck will feature space for twenty-two crew members. In addition to that space you will also find that there is a spa and wellness center along with the tender garage that is located directly forward of here.

There are of course going to be those concerned about exiting the boat while it is offshore, and this is perfectly reasonable. One thing that has been found, and is rather obvious, is that a helicopter moves much faster than a boat ever will. That being the case, a helipad has been built onto the top of the yacht for emergency situations.

In addition to the safety benefits, you will find that a full beam owner/guest suite has been included along with a private deck connected to the main deck. The 360 degree panoramic view will permit you to see virtually everything, and the entire boat is composed of a steel structure that permits for 24 knots. Though it does have this ability, the final speed available is largely unknown due to VGD’s unwillingness to release early specifications regarding the propulsion system. In all honesty however, you can probably plan on this boat being one of the best in its line. Stay tuned for more information!
