Sirena Yachts has unveiled exciting new details about its latest project, the Sirena 118, at the Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show 2024. This striking 36-meter GRP superyacht introduces a contemporary design and represents the launch of a new, larger composite line, boasting a waterline length exceeding 24 meters while remaining under 300 gross tons.

The design is currently in the works, featuring a flexible tri-deck layout that includes three decks of accommodation topped by an expansive sun deck. Future amenities could include an optional circular pool and lounging area at the bow, as well as a spacious beach club at the rear.



The Sirena 118’s bold plumb bow not only makes a strong aesthetic statement but also enhances the internal volume, providing ample room for a VIP cabin and up to four guest cabins on the lower deck. The owner’s stateroom occupies the forward section of the main deck and offers a unique option to span two decks, complete with a spiral staircase leading to a generous relaxation area and a fold-down swim platform for easy access to the water.

Social spaces are equally impressive, featuring an informal dining and lounging area on the main deck aft with floor-to-ceiling windows facilitating a seamless connection to the outdoor deck. The upper deck provides additional dining options alongside a wet bar, complemented by a more secluded exterior space. The yacht is designed for a crew of five, with the possibility of expanding to seven with the inclusion of a captain's cabin on the upper deck.



The sleek underwater profile is crafted by the renowned German Frers, while the yacht's exterior design comes from Sirena's in-house team, encapsulating the brand’s essence. Cor D Rover is in charge of the interior, which will possess a timeless and relaxed ambiance, although owners will have the option to customize their yacht to their preferences.

Constructed from GRP, the Sirena 118 promises operational efficiency. It features a fast displacement hull powered by two MAN V12 engines generating a total of 3,100hp, allowing for a top speed of 16 knots and an economical cruising speed of 11 knots. An upgraded engine package producing 3,800hp is also available, which offers a top speed of 21 knots.



“The 36-meter Sirena 118 will be the largest GRP yacht we have built to date,” stated Constantinos K. Constantinou, Head of Sirena Yachts USA. “This superyacht is being meticulously crafted to embody the pinnacle of the values that have driven the global success of Sirena Yachts and Sirena Superyachts. Intelligent design, flawless engineering, and sleek, modern aesthetics are seamlessly integrated with our profound passion for the yachting lifestyle. We’re excited to keep yachting enthusiasts informed as this exceptional project progresses toward its 2026 completion.”

Refurbished Zeelander Z44 Once Owned by Adriana Lima Returns to Market
A 2012 Zeelander Z44 previously owned by Victoria's Secret model Adriana Lima has undergone an extensive refit at the Dutch shipyard. The 13.52-meter yacht now features a full repaint in its original Rolls-Royce titanium color, rebuilt Volvo Penta IPS 600 engines, and refreshed upholstery. The vessel is currently available for immediate delivery through Zeelander Yachts.The refit process included stripping the hull to bare laminate before applying a new Awlgrip paint system with three base layers and clear coat. While the cherry wood interior and original cockpit table required only cleaning, exterior upholstery was replaced with diamond-stitched Silvertex fabric in ice white. The Volvo Penta IPS pods were fully overhauled despite having only 500 operating hours, restoring them to factory-new condition with a renewed warranty."Although we often talk about the extraordinary detailing on new Zeelander yachts, it’s less commonly known that we pour the same degree of attention and craftsmanship into our existing fleet as well," said Floris Koopmans, Zeelander's business development manager. "The refit of our Z44 from 2012 is a testament to both the longevity of our timeless designs and the skill of our team when it comes to revitalising a much-loved yacht."The Z44 model has been discontinued, with Zeelander's current lineup consisting of four models ranging from 15 to 24 meters. The refurbished yacht represents one of the last opportunities to acquire this out-of-production design in like-new condition.Zeelander Yachts was founded in 2002 in the Netherlands by Sietse Koopmans. The first model was unveiled to the public in 2008. The launch model Z44 received positive reviews at the Monaco Yacht Show and drew enormous crowds, despite being at an event dominated by much larger yachts. Within three years, the Z44 had been successfully introduced to the US as well as Europe, and it was an obvious direction to add a larger model to the fleet. The first Z55 was delivered in November 2015, and the flagship Z72 was launched in March 2019.Credit: Zeelander Yachts
