A standout feature is the distinctive sugar-scoop stern, positioned just 50 cm above the waterline. This design choice emphasises a close connection to the sea, reinforcing the yacht's focus on the essence of maritime travel.

5. CROCUS (45m)
Rounding out the top five is CROCUS, a 45-metre yacht from Altinova Shipyard in Turkey at their Valencia shipyard. This Turkish-built vessel is a testament to the shipyard's capability in constructing large, luxurious yachts. The naval architecture was developed by Vulkan, and the interior of the yacht was designed by Hot Lab. She was last refitted in 2024.

Her top speed is 21.0 kn, and her cruising speed is 17.0 kn, surpassing the average performance of other yachts in her class. Her low draft makes her primed for accessing shallow areas and cruising close to the shorelines.
