Oceanco has provided a closer look at one of the first yachts in its new 80-metre Simply Custom collection.

Tankoa Yachts has officially confirmed the concession of the Ex Privilege area within the port of Civitavecchia. Guido Orsi, Tankoa’s Marketing Manager, explains, “Our vision for Civitavecchia is to manufacture hulls and internalise part of the welding activities. Tasks that have been outsourced until now can be brought in house, allowing us to have direct control over the quality of the work. In Civitavecchia, we will begin operations almost immediately on one third of the available space in the former Privilege area.”

Turkish builder Mazu Yachts is best known for custom chase boats for superyachts, including a 38-footer, 52-footer, and even an 82-footer with a bulletproof pilothouse. But the shipyard recently launched a vessel that’s very different from its bread-and-butter designs—a series of superyachts. The Mazu 92 DS, which Robb Report toured at last year’s Cannes Yachting Festival, is the first in a line of full-displacement vessels that will eventually include 112- and 132-footers.
