New 80m project at Turquoise Yachts
Vitruvius Yachts has announced an 80m project to be built by Turquoise Yachts; the largest Vitruvius built so far.
This is one of the first new build projects announced by Turquoise since Dr Mohammed Al Barwani acquired a majority stake in the shipyard. It is also the largest of Philippe Briand’s designs to be realised under the Vitruvius Yachts name.
“This is an exciting project which fully encapsulates our focus on the yachting lifestyle,” said Mehmet Karabeyoglu, CEO of Turquoise. “It captures a vision that Mohammed and I share.”
“We are thrilled about this project” said Veerle Battiau, Managing Director of Vitruvius Yachts. “Advanced design from Vitruvius and the well established quality of Turquoise combine in VY80 to realise an exciting new vision of yachting at its best: bold new design focused strongly on individual lifestyle choice”.
