Here are the best reveals from Monaco Yacht Show 2018 so far

Monaco Yacht Show 2018 is well underway – and although there’s still lots to come from this year’s event, there have already been a number of unveilings, world premieres and debuts to shout about. Here are some of the best so far.

Among the announcements so far is a 102-metre (335-foot) superyacht concept by Lateral Naval Architects. Named Project Balance and developed in collaboration with Oceanco and Sinot, the vessel will feature a number of technical innovations to increase efficiency and performance while maintaining a level of total luxury.

“From the beach club up to the observatory, the five decks provide vast space for outdoor activities, lounging and dining - with the main deck featuring a 10-metre pool and an outside cinema found on the bridge deck,” said Sinot of Balance’s design. “On the lower deck, the efficient single-level engine room creates a very spacious area for the stunning open beach club, the Laguna lounge, a large gym and a fully equipped spa with sauna. In short, Project Balance is the perfect family yacht; her innovative layout and design will set the new standard for future generations.”

Design studio Bannenberg & Rowell has also united with German yard Kusch Yachts for Project Blazon, a stunning superyacht stretching to 118 metres (387 feet). The yacht, which features naval architecture from Kusch and a steel and aluminium hull and superstructure, boasts an 18.6-metre beam and 5.5-metre draught. The two firms have previously worked on 113-metre (371-foot) Le Grand Bleu.

In addition to a raft of traditional superyacht luxuries, the build will be able to accommodate a total of 76 (32 guests and 44 crew) and include a sunken observation saloon and winter garden lounge.

Fincantieri Yachts has also unveiled a mesmerising 106-metre (348-foot) superyacht concept. Find out all about the vessel, dubbed Voyage, here.

Sunseeker has also confirmed some exciting news – the company will be joining forces with Icon Yachts on a new all-metal line of superyachts. Find out more.

Heesen, Rosetti, Nobiskrug, CCN, Mulder Design and many more yards, studios and brands have also provided news of in-build and/or upcoming projects.
