Turkish yacht yard Mengi-Yay has officially unveiled its 47.8m flagship motor yacht La Vie, the first vessel in the new Virtus 47 line, which was launched in the spring of 2022.
The exterior of La Vie was designed by VYD, the interiors were designed by Italian yacht designer Leonardo Santi, and the naval architecture by Ginton Naval Architects.
Constructed of aluminum and steel, this superyacht has a huge beach club with swivel tables and hydraulic steps, as well as a swim platform with easy access to the water. The dining area is located on the main deck aft. The forward deck has another area for lounging during the day. A separate private space is also designed in the enclosed lounge area, with additional lounge chairs and cozy armchairs.
The main salon and the owner's cabin are equipped with transforming multifunctional balconies. La Vie also has a transverse or longitudinal tender garage, several pools and jacuzzis and other options that can be changed at the request of the owner at the stage of ordering a yacht.
The vessel can accommodate up to ten guests in five cabins, as well as seven crew members in four cabins. The maximum speed of the yacht is up to 14.5 knots, or can be reduced to 12 knots when two CAT engines are connected.
Several other yachts are currently under construction at the Mengi-Yay shipyard, including two more Virtus 47Ms. In addition, the Atlante Mistral 41 is under development, with the first one to be launched in 2023 and the second to go on sale.
