This must be the ultimate watersports yacht, equipped with a huge range of toys and diving gear for a family who revel in riding the waves from a boat with a timeless look and exceptional finish words: David Pelly photography::Bugsy Gedlek

This is a big yacht capable of crossing the wide oceans of the world... with large tanks and plenty of storage capacity, she has everything needed for lengthy expeditions Every custom-built yacht should reflect the taste and interests of the owner, and this is certainly the case with the 75.5 metre Oceanco motor yacht Anastasia – a short time aboard reveals the owner and his family to be avid watersports enthusiasts. Jet ski competition is a major interest of the owner’s daughter, while other members of the family are passionately involved with diving, windsurfing, waterskiing and...

The provision of a well-equipped gymnasium with a pool was an important part of the design brief – together with a liberal supply of loungers for both individuals and groups enthusiasm and passion. This was one of its most challenging builds to date, both in complexity and design detail, and the excellent team spirit forged between the owner’s team and the yard helped both to overcome the many hurdles. With her elegant, sweeping curves and pair of ‘rocket’ wings on top of her superstructure, Anastasia’s exterior is a complete change from Oceanco’s previous launch, the immensely...

tenders are fitted with Steyr diesel engines to make maintenance easier, and as well as having their own navigation and communication equipment to enable them to make ambitious expeditions in safety, they are fitted with beacons so that the yacht’s main chart plotter can pinpoint their position. Since all these personal water craft burn petrol, a considerable amount has to be stored on board. To do this safely, a 400 litre tank is fitted within a coffer-dam below the floor of the lazarette and connected to a ‘filling station’ with extending hoses. When the tank needs replenishing it can be...

A singular theme runs throughout, with subtle variations in various parts of the yacht. ‘The owner asked for a comfortable and relaxing beach-house atmosphere that would be light and welcoming with no fiddly decoration and a minimum of gloss and shine,’ explains Sorgiovanni. ‘I tried to create a timeless look with bold shapes and a nice mix of textures that has a fairly solid feel. The furniture is in mostly contemporary shapes but some of the details, such as the big lamps, have an art deco style.’ As befits an Australian designer, Sorgiovanni has made good use of antipodean materials,...

An extraordinary, three-deck-high glass sculpture – created in the Cczech Republic – suggests a forest of kelp inhabited by mysterious sea creatures In dramatic contrast to the relaxing atmosphere of the upper saloon and sheltered aft deck, a glass sculpture of kelp and sea creatures twists its way down the main staircase of the yacht’s decks INTERNATIONAL which repeated designs are impressed, while another is formed from tiles of oxydised copper that has an interesting greenish-silvery colour. The carpets, where used, have a sand ripple effect to continue the beach feel, and many of the...

dramatic effect. It is set in a drum-shaped lobby, beyond which a corridor stretches forward to the main stairs, in the centre of which is an extraordinary, three-deck-high glass sculpture – created in Czchecoslovakia – that suggests a forest of kelp inhabited by mysterious sea creatures. It seems that the owning family are fit people who engage in sport all day and dance most of the night, so it is no surprise that they tone up in the fully equipped gymnasium on the top deck. Not only does this have a full range of exercise machines, but through doors you can see the inviting blue water of...
