8 Of The Best Explorer Yacht Concepts


Sea Palace
A new take on the explorer yachts by Motion Code Blue for Icon Yachts, the Sea Palace is 95 metres long. The Austrian design firm has managed to make the typical forward superstructure common on commercial vessels an elegant feature on this explorer packed with ideas — who doesn’t want a waterfall?

This concept is based on an existing and fully engineered platform with a beam of 22 metres, enormous by most private yacht standards but the design seems to keep those dimensions in proportion.


Sorgiovanni 98m concept
Not quite 100 metres, but close, this 99.06 metre explorer yacht concept by Sam Sorgiovanni Designs is perfect for people with big dreams.

Traditional enough to fit neatly into the category of an explorer yacht, this concept also challenges the status quo. A reverse bow, not typical on this type of vessel, gives it an edge.

A certified and retractable superyacht helipad conceals a two-story tender garage for a smaller displacement vessel and a fleet of speedboats. There is also plenty of room for relaxing on board – the owners’ deck has room for a nine metre swimming pool.
