Emrecan Özgün of Unique Yacht Design highlighted the enhanced exterior spaces, giving the Bilgin 163 a more sportive appearance. The yacht includes a 21-meter sundeck with a large hot tub, a 12-meter bridge deck aft, and a spacious main deck aft, providing a seamless connection to the beach club and the sea without adding bulk to the design.

The interiors, crafted by Milan-based Hot Lab, showcase over 60 natural finishes, including 14 different marbles. The six-cabin layout accommodates 12 guests, with each stateroom offering unique color combinations. Enrico Lumini, partner and head of design at Hot Lab, aimed for a fresh and colorful aesthetic, avoiding overwhelming use of color to create a light, sunny ambiance reminiscent of a villa on the Côte d'Azur.

Notable design features include a full-height round glass wall dividing the main saloon and lobby, a giant chandelier, a floating staircase, and a skylight on the sundeck floor. The sunken-level beach club boasts a sauna, ice fountain, day head, and a lounge with a wet bar. The yacht also features both outdoor and indoor cinemas.
Constructed with steel and aluminum, Eternal Spark is powered by twin CAT C32 engines, achieving a top speed of 16.5 knots and a range of 5,000 nautical miles at a cruising speed of 12 knots.
