We're delighted to bring you the latest chapter in YYachts, filled with innovation, luxury, and a touch of architectural brilliance.

David Thulstrup Elevates Y8's Interior Design

An experienced YYachts owner has commissioned the renowned architect and designer, David Thulstrup, to transform the interior of the new Y8. Thulstrup's award-winning approach seamlessly blends Scandinavian heritage with a modern design language, promising a unique and refined yacht experience. Warm beige, brown, and wood tones create a cozy yet elegant atmosphere, reflecting Thulstrup's commitment to spaces that prioritize comfort and embrace their surroundings.

Flexible Layout for A Customized Experience

Thulstrup's version of the Y8 boasts a layout with fewer bulkheads, allowing for more personalized configurations. The stern is dedicated to the crew, while four guests can enjoy two cabins with en suite bathrooms.

The heart of the yacht is the salon, featuring a lounge with generous sofas on both sides and a dining area with a table for six to eight guests. Sliding doors provide the flexibility to transform the dining area into a private space or even an office, showcasing the adaptability that sets YYachts apart.

Javier Jaudenes and Surge Projects: Crafting the Perfect Exterior

The Y8's exterior and technical design are masterfully crafted by Javier Jaudenes and the experienced Surge Projects team. Jaudenes, the creative force behind numerous fast cruisers, dubs the Y8 a "fun boat." The widened stern, paired with a mast set further back, promises exhilarating speed. Thanks to YYachts' commitment to carbon construction, the Y8 embodies speed and safety, making it an essence of experience.

The YYachts success story commenced in 2015 with the "Cool Breeze" and evolved into the Y8 model, offering ten different layouts for the almost 24-meter-long yacht. YYachts' commitment to continuous development and innovation ensures that each Y8 model exceeds expectations.

As we eagerly await the spring 2024 launch, join us in celebrating the synthesis of David Thulstrup's vision and Javier Jaudenes' design in the upcoming Y8. We can't wait to share this extraordinary journey with you.
