The new Mazu 62 completes the line-up of six luxury hard-top and open models offered by the Turkish brand. The first, the Mazu 38, was launched in 2017 and was followed up by the 42, 52, 82 and now the 62. The flagship model, the Mazu 92DS, is currently in build.
With her sporty lines and military-style paintwork, the Mazu 62 is ideal for overnight or weekend trips, or as a chase boat for superyachts. She also features the large hull windows, expansive deck space and a very spacious interior layout.
The main deck layout features four distinct but connected and convivial open-air areas: a foredeck lounge with forward-facing bench seat and two hi-lo tables that can be lowered and fitted with in-fill cushions to increase the size of the sun-pads; a central helm station with dinette and three wrap-around seating and bar unit under the shade of the hardtop; an aft cockpit furnished with comfy sofas and low tables (alternatively the aft deck can carry a tender and toys); an ample swim platform for easy access to the sea.
“In case of the first unit the lower deck accommodates three cabins with ensuite bathrooms,” says Halit Yukay, yacht designer and CEO of Mazu Yachts. “All three cabins are of equal size, but clients can also choose to have a two-cabin layout with a full-beam owner’s suite amidships.”
Other interior amenities include a roomy dinette and galley, an extra day-head for guests and even a two-man crew cabin behind the engine compartment.
In fact, powered by Volvo Penta IPS 1350 drives, the most powerful in the IPS line-up offering excellent performance and efficiency as well as easy handling and maneuverability, the Mazu 62 has a top speed of 43 knots and a cruising speed of 33 knots.
Turkish Mazu Yachts has been designing and producing Open and Hard-Top Motor Yachts and Superyacht Tenders since 2011. The state of the art facility of 3000-square-metre indoor and 1000-square-metre outdoor space also accommodates carpentry shops and paint booths for creating an anti-dust environment.

Sanlorenzo reaches an important new milestone: the сompany has signed the contract for the manufacturing of the largest superyacht ever to be built by the shipyard. The sale was finalised through the international broker house Edmiston and the new project will be delivered to its European owner in spring 2025. The sale of this new superyacht, which coincides with the sale of further two units of the 62Steel line, completes a record-breaking year for Sanlorenzo's Superyacht Division which is proud to have already closed 15 contracts to date in 2021. This year also saw a significant increase in production activity, with six superyachts delivered and six units launched.“The pride of having signed the contract for our first 72Steel, the largest Sanlorenzo ever to be built and which will be in the water in 2025, is the crowning achievement of an unparalleled year,” says Ferruccio Rossi, President of Sanlorenzo's Superyacht Division.With its 72 meters in length, five decks and a volume of 1850 GT, the 72Steel will be a completely new project with respect to its predecessors. Like every new creation of the Superyacht Division, the 72Steel will be characterised by unexpected solutions, the result of a project studied at 360 degrees around the concept of liveability on board: from the conception of the steel hull, with an aluminium superstructure, conceived and forged like a work of art, to the design of the interiors, customised in every smallest detail to adhere perfectly to the client's every desire.The external lines of the 72Steel will be made by Studio Zuccon International Project, while the interiors will be furnished to meet the owner's specific requirements. The owner's cabin will have a dedicated deck – above the bridge deck and will occupy an entire deck of the yacht. The main deck will be the area reserved for guests with lounge areas and five spacious cabins. One of the model's special features will be an extensive wellness area to ensure relaxation for all guests on board."The 72Steel is aiming to become one of the new protagonists of the Sanlorenzo range, thanks also to the hybrid diesel-electric engine system, which confirms again the Company's increasing attention to the future, constantly studying concrete solutions to reduce the impact of its yachts on the marine ecosystem. The hybrid diesel-electric engine system represents a combination of innovative solutions which make it possible to significantly reduce emissions into the atmosphere and the sea, ensure high levels of comfort and rationalise the spaces dedicated to the engine area in favour of the internal volume available for owners and guests, thus presenting itself as a new paradigm for superyachts of this size," stated Antonio Santella, New Product Development Director of Sanlorenzo’s Superyacht Division.On the same occasion, Sanlorenzo also confirmed the Group's guidance for 2021, which foresees a double-digit growth of the main metrics (Net Revenues New Yachts, EBITDA, Net Profit, Investments and Net Financial Position), supported by an order intake of €381.1 million in the third quarter, which led the backlog to a record level of €1.2 billion.Sanlorenzo was founded in 1985 in Viareggio by yacht builder Gionvanni Jannetti. In 2005, Massimo Perrotti became the majority shareholder in the shipyard. Sanlorenzo builds yachts ranging from 28.6 to 62 meters in length. Credits: Sanlorenzo

Beach club In addition, WHY200 boasts two garages with a storage capacity never seen before on yachts of this size, capable of accommodating a 4.05m jet tender, wave runner, seabob, paddleboard and all manner of water toys.
