The cavernous tender garage can accommodate a Williams 460 Sportjet and GTX255 jet ski, with plentiful stowage for Seabobs, diving equipment and paddleboards. The hydraulic ladder passarelle allows guests to effortlessly access the watersports on offer and fully enjoy their time on the water. Meanwhile, owners can make use of an oversized rain shower and large built-in barbeque, as well as an impressive transformational sunbed.

The aft cockpit offers an array of free-standing or fixed seating variations to suit owner preference, an integrated wet bar with a fridge, ice maker, stainless steel sink and ample storage lockers.
100 Yacht flybridge
The vast flybridge flows seamlessly into the foredeck with uninterrupted walk-around access on both sides. With L-shaped seating, fully-equipped wet bar and space for a spa bath and accompanying sunpads or free-standing loungers, the flybridge is a great space for entertaining. Another social space can be found at the foredeck with two separate seating arrangements plus an oversized sunpad, complete with ample storage and refrigeration options.The foredeck can transform into an open-air cinema with laser projector and 140-inch screen.
The main salon
The essential raised pilot house, central to this yacht’s innovative design, incorporates a glazed sliding door aft, allowing uninterrupted views forward from the flybridge. Inside, observation seating, an oversized portside chart table and four glass bridge displays accompany the single helm station with commanding views forward. A second helm station can be specified on the flybridge whilst wing stations are fitted as standard.
The master suite
The main deck layout includes a master stateroom forward for even greater flexibility and freedom on board. This full-beam stateroom is simply spectacular, offering a large lobby entrance, walk-in wardrobe with feature shelving, an office and a generous en suite with twin washbasins and rain shower. Bathed in natural light courtesy of expansive panoramic glazing, owners can also access a first-in-class bow terrace for ultimate privacy through a cleverly sculptured, fully-glazed sliding door forward.
A tastefully furnished salon has an elegant L-shaped sofa, 55 inch TV and sideboard for ample storage leads into a delightful dining area for eight guests, imbued with an apartment-style ambience. The stunning feature wall forward of the dining room showcases exposed and seemingly floating stair treads leading to the wheelhouse above on the port side and lower deck access to starboard. The large, fully equipped galley forward is concealed behind a feature bulkhead, and offers plentiful space and direct side deck access for crew.

The 50-meter Heesen motor yacht Bijin has completed a comprehensive refit at Monaco Marine's La Seyne-sur-Mer facility. Formerly named Sibelle, the vessel was sold in October 2024 with Burgess representing the buyer and Ocean Independence the seller.The nine-month project involved exterior repainting from oyster white and grey to Matterhorn white with jet black accents and a red boot stripe. Interior updates focused on Japandi-inspired design elements blending Japanese minimalism with Scandinavian influences. Milan-based studio Hot Lab led the design in collaboration with Austrian contractors List GC.Hot Lab design director Enrico Lumini stated: "Their hands-on involvement and constructive approach were instrumental in helping us navigate challenges and complete the project within the established timeframe." The owners maintained an active role throughout the process, having previously worked with the design studio.Refit work concentrated on soft furnishings including beds, headboards, curtains, carpets, and loose furniture rather than structural modifications. The color palette shifted toward lighter tones and softer brown shades to create what the owner described as "an organic, naturally blending and appealing design" for guest relaxation.Originally delivered in 2015 with a Fast Displacement Hull Form design, Bijin received recognition at the 2016 World Superyacht Awards. The yacht accommodates 10 guests with an owner's suite featuring dual bathrooms serving as buffer zones before the main cabin.Monaco Marine project manager Augustin Fabre noted the refit met "the most demanding standards" for visual identity and functionality. The yacht will operate for both private use and charter in the Western Mediterranean, with initial seasons fully booked.The refit demonstrates continued market activity in large yacht refurbishment projects, particularly for well-maintained vessels requiring aesthetic updates rather than technical overhauls. The collaboration between ownership, design teams, and shipyard resulted in a nine-month completion timeline.Heesen Yachts is a Dutch ship building company that specializes in custom-built superyachts in aluminum and steel from 30m to 70m in size. Founded in 1978, it has launched more than 170 yachts since its inception.Credits: Viken Group

Azimut has developed Neuron, a fully digital yacht management system designed to streamline vessel operation and maintenance. The system was created by Azimut Technical Development in partnership with MDP Tech following a six-month trial installation aboard an Azimut Fly 53 model.Neuron enables remote monitoring and control of onboard systems including lighting, climate control, and entertainment through a customizable interface. The system reduces routine and extraordinary maintenance requirements by approximately 70% through continuous diagnostics and remote troubleshooting capabilities. According to the company, the technology allows after-sales technicians to perform system diagnostics while maintaining customer privacy protections.Technical specifications include a 50% reduction in wiring weight compared to conventional systems, freeing space for other functions. The plug-and-play architecture permits rapid component replacement, starting with control units. Power management features adjust electricity consumption based on real-time requirements.Azimut Technical Director Ruggero Gandolfi stated: "Neuron truly improves the owner's life, not only allowing them to monitor their vessel from home and directly manage certain systems with great ease, but also performing diagnostic tests and reducing unscheduled maintenance."The system is scheduled to become standard equipment on Azimut models up to 24 meters (80 feet) following final verification testing. The development represents Azimut's continued investment in digitalization projects aimed at enhancing owner experience and operational efficiency.Neuron's architecture incorporates risk analysis protocols to minimize system disruptions both at sea and in port. The technology will be rolled out across Azimut's production lines as part of the company's ongoing digital transformation initiatives in yacht manufacturing and support services.Azimut, founded in 1969 by Paolo Vitelli and part of the Azimut|Benetti Group, builds motor yachts from 42 to 144 feet across seven series.
