Designing a superyacht often starts with a clear vision and a unique idea that will change the industry. The founders of <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/6600" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Isola Corvus Ltd. (Company)">Isola Corvus</a>, Sami Lehtonen and Sanna-Kaisa Koivisto, know this all too well – offshore racing partners, innovators and entrepreneurs, the duo had something more than just a love for the sea; a desire to make a mark in the sailing industry.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/216497/image/large-3d9dd95f0c4dd4f965ac0f5c0ea44a80.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/216497">The unlikely partnership started as the two sailors had spent time together at sea in all types of conditions, as part of the same offshore racing team in Finland. A few months later, Sami phoned Sanna-Kaisa with an idea to design their own yacht through their shared passion of changing the market and making a difference.Through intense market research they found that 90 percent of the market is for motor yachts, but there was room for a specific kind of sailing yacht that would target both the sailing and motor sector. “We wanted to bring a better, more environmentally friendly alternative to the yacht market, in order for us to make sure the next generations get to experience and enjoy the wonders of the seas as well,” said Sami Lehtonen.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/242234/image/large-51b335bc454fd0d4239d88589eae3888.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/242234">The result was the 41-metre sailing yacht Velarca 135 that combines luxury with style and most importantly, takes into account the growing demand on sustainability. “We contacted the German superyacht designers <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/164" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Beiderbeck Designs (Company)">Beiderbeck Designs</a> and pitched the idea of creating something radically new for the market, and they were keen to get involved,” said Sami.&nbsp;When the idea was first introduced, Immo Lüdeling and Tim Ulrich of <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/164" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Beiderbeck Designs (Company)">Beiderbeck Designs</a> started sketching almost immediately with a design that would focus on the reduction of emissions, while increasing sustainability. “We saw that no one had achieved this before, and we knew that we had to be the ones to make that change,” comments Sanna-Kaisa Koivisto. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/216496/image/large-bb4330af290da5a641aa42e67a6508a8.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/216496">It was crucial that <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/6600" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Isola Corvus Ltd. (Company)">Isola Corvus</a> created something new, “being different is the key, you don't need to fight against the giants to be successful,” remarks Sami. “We wanted to be the forerunners for the industry and create a yacht that people can enjoy on the waters in a more eco-friendly way” added Sanna-Kaisa.Unlike conventional sailing yachts, Velarca 135 offers two decks and is aimed at owners who are traditionally interested in motor yachts. Even though the nature of Velarca is clearly a cruising yacht, the hull shape, keel and the rudder are the latest available technology from offshore racing circuits.&nbsp;<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/216498/image/large-29b199b0e1cba3a4051ab412d7aadfa4.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/216498">The sailing yacht concept Velarca 135 also draws upon some key features that are usually only seen on motor yachts. Velarca 135 has a streamlined, motor yacht like profile featuring a very large beach club at the stern, something that is rarely seen on sailing yachts. “We wanted her to have this feature as it targets the motor yacht clientele and offers something different to the sailing sector of the market,” Sami points out.&nbsp;The expansive beach club provides a stylish lounge area as well as a very large swim platform with additional space for living and entertaining. The area also includes a central Jacuzzi to expand her outdoor facilities. &nbsp;<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/216493/image/large-b5f0be620cd828b3d8d58c4e1938e36a.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/216493">When underway the yacht's tender can be stored on the swim platform, while additional tenders and toys can be stored on the foredeck. Designed for families, the team has added a lift to the front bulkhead of the beach club, making it easy and safe to access all decks, even for those with disabilities.Velarca 135 also has a completely new kind of rig with three self-tacking and hydraulically furling jibs. The result is a rope free rig that doesn’t require a large crew to operate and reduces the risks associated with high loads on the sheets. “Her decks are safer, simpler and allow for someone with little or no experience to easily manage her,” adds Sami.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/216499/image/large-e6b6b2919ec59af2b44f6642ef4ec58f.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/216499">The team has also made sure that Velarca 135 has a low centre of gravity “when we spoke to motor yacht owners, one of the main goals was to make sure that she doesn’t heel too much,” notes Sanna-Kaisa. The result is a yacht that is easy to live onboard and offers a solid sailing experience. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/242232/image/large-8fd4ddc1c0153b0949334960523201b4.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/242232">Internally she is able to accommodate as many as 12 guests in one configuration, while another deluxe option allows for a large owner’s suite and four additional staterooms, accommodating as many as 10 guests in total. Velarca 135 is also able to host a crew of nine in cabins situated on the lower decks, where there is a large utility room, including a washer, dryer and dumbwaiter.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/216494/image/large-d23ae9f9a161e73b660e7a5c5bafcac6.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/216494"><a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/6600" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Isola Corvus Ltd.

We want to inspire others and let them know that, when you have a good idea and great partners, you can achieve anything.”

The yacht features three self-tacking and hydraulically furling jib sails that can be released or furled with the press of a button in upper deck cockpit. To further increase safety, all lines have been placed on the mast to free the deck of ropes and winches, this also allows for more open space for sofas and sunbathing areas.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/216498/image/large-29b199b0e1cba3a4051ab412d7aadfa4.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/216498">Internally she is able to accommodate as many as 12 guests in one configuration, while another option is to have a large owner's suite with an additional four cabins, accommodating as many as 10 guests in total.

The designers at beiderbeck have come up with a new 24-metre motor yacht concept based on the hull shape of a classic trawler vessel that is fitted out with a high specification of luxury amenities. The design is presented as an all-in-one day-cruiser or overnight retreat which the owner can use to entertain his guests in style.

<img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/166279/image/large-13b767236efbd52f431b22accefa93ff.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/166279">

“The idea behind the "Private Beach" with its long, open stern and low freeboard is based on the hull shape of trawlers used for prawn fishing,” explains the studio. “We have taken up those principles and paired them with the latest in yacht design ideas. The mobile island makes it possible to take day or evening trips with catering, bar keepers and/or DJs, as well as live music and entertainment of all kinds.”

Private Beach comes complete with a 5-metre tender and two double-seater jet skis to make exploring remote coves and beaches surrounding the yacht possible. The stern area equates to over 50 square metres of sunbathing and outdoor lounging space with a fixed bimini providing much-needed relief from the tropical sun. A bathing platform folds out from where guests can board the tender or take the plunge into the refreshing crystal waters.

In terms of performance, Private Beach is fitted with twin 850 kW hybrid marine engines that will allow her to reach up to 27 knots and can manoeuvre under electric power alone at low speeds in zero-emissions mode.

Beiderbeck design’s new Private Beach project

The Swan 105 Ti-Coyo has recently been sold after having been listed at €9,600,000. The sale was handled in-house through Nautor’s Swan Brokerage. Ti-Coyo is lying in Palma de Mallorca.

<img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/166268/image/large-3e8eb445f9306c9b50bcad6ef95fc58d.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/166268">

Ti-Coyo was built for an experiences yachtsman to a design by Frers and Beiderbeck design studios. The high level of technology was a request from the first owner who wanted to cruise with minimal crew on board. Further peace and quiet on board comes from a special night mode setting to which the generator can be set to reduce noise.

New owner for 32m sailing yacht Ti-Coyo

Built for a five-time Horizon owner, the Taiwanese shipyard launched the 33.5-metre CC110 superyacht last month. Designed by the German studio beiderbeck design, the yacht is on schedule for a Mediterranean delivery this Spring.

Beiderbeck designs met regularly with the owner during the three-year process to incorporate his custom vision, during which the length of the project grew from 108 feet to 110 feet. The build of the project was overseen by owner’s representatives Zucker &amp; Partner. "Cooperation and communication with the boatyard was exemplary at all times," reports Stefan Zucker.
