75m Vallicelli-Designed NB69 INFINITE JEST Delivered by Turquoise
Turquoise Yachts has announced the successful delivery of its 75m NB69, now named INFINITE JEST. Delivered to her owner at the end of July, the magnificent Turkish build will now undertake her maiden voyage in the Mediterranean before traversing the Atlantic after the summer season.
Turquoise’s recently delivered INFINITE JEST stands as a testament to modern yacht architecture and design. Simple sleek lines and powerful dynamic structures present a harmonious blend of soft grace with rigid charisma for a captivating visual contrast: perfectly exampled in the styling seen between her aluminium superstructure and steel hull, and the clever geometry of the front canopies and side deck bulwarks.
INFINITE JEST’s profile exudes that of a sporty sailing yacht, mainly thanks to the transom's low angle and the extended forward overhang, all contributing to her elongated, slender appearance, which in turn enhances her interior volume to be utterly spacious.
So who is to thank for her eye-catching stature? Turquoise once again collaborated with Vallicelli Yacht Design, the design studio that previously penned the 74m NB66, for the exceptional exteriors of INFINITE JEST. Her interiors have been penned by renowned design studio SINOT in a Turquoise first, who is said to have created a dynamic living experience from the very moment guests step onboard. Her interiors are yet to be revealed, but they are expected to follow the usual luxury DNA of SINOT with clever open social spaces and complimentary colour palettes. Accommodation onboard is comprised of an Owner’s suite complete with a private deck and office, as well as one VIP cabin and five guest cabins to sleep a total of 14.
Aside from her tactile exterior profile, a unique and unusually large full-beam beach club also sets INFINITE JEST apart from her predecessors. Not only opening aft to a swimming platform, the beach club also features shell doors on either side that can be converted into extended sea platforms. Additionally, a tender garage is situated at midship which boasts an expansive shell door, providing access to a 10.2m limousine tender.
INFINITE JEST has a beam of 14.20m and an approximate gross tonnage of 1680. She has a maximum speed of 18 knots.
Turquoise Yachts has six yachts currently in various stages of construction, including the 87m Vento, 79m Toro, which is due for delivery soon, and an unrevealed 42m sailing yacht.
