Founded in 2018 as an extension of Xtenders’ work in the superyacht sector, Xquip initially focused on lightweight boarding and deck equipment designed to match the quality and finish of the tenders being delivered. The business grew out of repeated demand from shipyards and designers for products such as swimming ladders and awning systems that reflected the same emphasis on design, weight efficiency and usability. Since then, Xquip has expanded its range and developed its production capabilities, increasing its presence within the superyacht deck equipment market. Its relationship with Xtenders continues to shape how the business operates today. The two companies share engineering expertise and production knowledge and may collaborate on the same yacht, with tender solutions and deck equipment developed in parallel to create greater consistency in design, materials and user experience. This also allows Xquip to offer shipyards, designers and owner’s representatives a more coordinated approach across different parts of a project.Expanding the

How to Build It
Draak, launched by Oceanco as Equanimity and later renamed Tranquility, was acquired in mid-2023 by owner Gabe Newell, who initiated a sweeping technical and operational rethink of the 91.5-metre superyacht at the shipyard’s refit facility in Zwijndrecht. That successful collaboration later informed his decision to invest in Oceanco as its principal shareholder.Unlike a conventional cosmetic refresh or technical upgrade, Draak’s refit is better understood as a comprehensive rebuild. As the first known conversion of a standalone superyacht into a hybrid expedition yacht and support vessel, the project required an unusually close level of coordination between shipyard, crew, Class, naval architects, and the owner’s advisory team. “The result achieved was brought to the next level only by bringing together the technical and operational experience,“ says Bas Swanink, Sales Director at Oceanco, who also worked as a project manager on Equanimity. “Working closely with a team of professional crew and technical representatives is what made the difference.”Drawing on experience from other yachts in the owner’s

Today's superyacht owners and captains expect more from a marina than a safe berth. As homeports become an increasingly important part of the ownership experience, the most successful destinations combine operational excellence with a lifestyle offering that enhances every day spent ashore. Marina Port Vell has become one of the clearest examples of that evolution. Few marinas can claim such a close relationship to the city that surrounds them. Just beyond the pontoons lies one of Europe's most vibrant cities, where Michelin-starred restaurants, luxury shopping, world-renowned architecture and excellent international transport links are all within easy reach. Situated within walking distance of Barcelona's historic centre, Marina Port Vell has become a unique waterfront setting, established as one of the city's most exclusive venues for luxury events, private celebrations and corporate hospitality. The port’s reputation has always been strong, but has gained international recognition since becoming the preferred superyacht marina during the 37th America’s Cup. While

As contemporary superyacht design continues to prioritise light, openness and seamless connections to the sea, glass has evolved from a purely functional element into a defining aesthetic feature and, with the use of significantly larger glass panels, has become an essential structural component. Expansive glazing now shapes not only the visual identity of a yacht but also its engineering framework, requiring a far more integrated and technically rigorous approach. For German specialist TILSE, this shift represents both an opportunity and a responsibility – to ensure that increasingly ambitious designs are matched by uncompromising structural integrity, durability and precision.Integrating glass from the concept stage Larger glass surfaces have fundamentally changed how glazing is approached in yacht construction. No longer a late-stage addition, glass must be embedded into the superstructure concept from the earliest design phases, with engineers analysing how forces move through the pane, adhesive bond and surrounding structure.

Delivered in May this year, the yacht is currently en route to Colón, Argentina, from Salt Island, according to AIS data.Spanning six decks, Nausicaä takes her name from Greek mythology, translating to "burner of ships" or "she who shines among the ships".
