Turquoise Yachts is proud to be exhibiting its latest launch, the 77-metre motor yacht  Go at the 2018 Monaco Yacht Show. The yacht, which was delivered to her owner in early June, represents a landmark achievement for Turquoise Yachts. She is not only the builder’s flagship but she also represents the yard’s dramatic evolution in technological achievement and workmanship. A modern classic, Go sports a fluidly sinuous exterior profile that is complemented by a rich contemporary interior, both courtesy of London- based H2 Yacht Design. Her turquoise painted hull enhances the connection to the sea and is unified by a “water in motion” narrative that influenced the interior colors, metallic finishes, fabrics, textiles, and stonework.

Aboard Go, guests have multiple options for enjoying life aboard to its fullest. The layout includes five spacious decks serviced by a central elevator that operates from the beach club to the open sundeck. The 162-sqm beach club flanked with 2 shell doors and a hidden transom door includes a lounge, bar, massage room and dive store.  Amidships on this level is a spacious 12m garage that harbors a 9.6m Pascoe Limousine tender and an 8.6m-day tender. All tenders and toys, including the 5.5m rescue tender, are painted the yacht’s signature turquoise hull colour.

The main deck hosts the salon, living and dining area and also offers extensive group seating on the aft deck. Forward of the lobby there are 2 VIP staterooms, 3 large doubles and 2 twin cabins. Each guestroom has a generous marble-clad bathroom with signature Alex Turco art panel in each shower room.  Design details throughout the main deck area include edge-lit floating panels that permit concealed mood lighting and shallow recesses for the integration of flush artworks. Go is loaded with detailed craftsmanship; fine joinery, custom loose & built- in furniture and a comprehensive LED lighting system. The collection of abstract art aboard follows the interior narrative using splashes of the turquoise and gold. In the central stair lobby an extraordinary ‘Sea Spray’ Chandelier by Dale Chihuly accentuates the ‘water in motion’ theme that runs through the yacht. Measuring 5.5m in length the piece drops through the open stair from bridge deck to main deck.  The chandelier is composed of 468 separate blown glass icicle forms in colours of the sea ranging from clear to turquoise to blue. Multiple angles of the externally-lit Sea Spray Chandelier are reflected in the bevel-edged mirror panels used to decorate the interior.

Up top on sundeck, a 5-meter swimming pool is nestled in the deck in front of the mast, which gracefully joins the raised deck to the whale tail fins that support the main satellite domes. The pool has massaging water jets and a cleverly disguised waterfall feature that cascades from the forward part of the mast. 

Go is a wow yacht from afar, but even more breathtaking from up close. The attention to detail and level of luxury and quality is unsurpassed.
