yacht jewels owner

Construction is well underway for the new 53-meter motoryacht Jewels. With hull and superstructure completed and interior work in process, she is taking form. Jewels’ exterior design belongs to Miami based DeBasto Design whilst her interior is created by London based H2 Yacht Design.

She offers 8 + 1 guest staterooms, while the exterior deck areas are spacious and designed for entertainment of both big groups and for intimate gatherings of 12 to 14 people. “No one will feel lost” says Luiz DeBasto. The Sun Deck offers around-the-clock entertainment with a hot tub, sun-pads, TV, day head, bar and acres of open space.

“With Jewels’ enormous volume, my objective was to make the exterior less bulky and give a feeling of a forward dynamic movement, rather than a static feel” says Luiz DeBasto. “I wanted the design to show movement and purpose from any angle. I achieved this with the long ascending line from the swim platform all the way up to the mast and down to the pilothouse windshield”.

Some of Jewels’ highlights include a substantial swim platform that make it easy for ingress and egress from tenders. The Owner's stateroom and VIP suite are forward on Main Deck. Traffic circulation between guests and crew are completely separated on all decks, including discreet access on Lower Deck between the Laundry and the Guest's area. Crew accommodations for 10 are on the lower deck and there is a Captain's cabin on the Upper Deck next to the pilothouse.

“The yacht’ general arrangement is unique and highly personalized, using all available space to maximize guest accommodation. 5 guest cabins occupy the lower deck with the typical beach club area being surrendered for an extra guest cabin. The main deck retains the typical layout with main saloon, spacious full beam owner’s suite and neighboring VIP cabin. On bridge deck an extra 2 cabins have been added between the bridge and upper saloon providing accommodation for 18 guests in total.” Says James Bermudez, H2 Yacht Design.

“The interior design brief was established early in the design process with the client favoring a traditional yacht aesthetic combining classic teak joinery with gold inlays, bevel edged mirrors, colorful textiles and highly decorative stones.

Turquoise Yachts launches 53m Jewels

The vessel was launched at the pendik shipyard….

Turquoise Yachts has announced the launch of 53m Jewels , another unique vessel to add to the Turquoise fleet. The celebrations gave Jewels a warm welcome to the seas as the newest member of the Turquoise fleet. The ceremony took place at the Pendik shipyard on the 19th of August together with the owners, guests and the Turquoise team.

Jewels' exterior design belongs to Miami based DeBasto Design , whilst her interior is created by London based H2 Yacht Design . At 720 GT, Jewels offers interior and exterior space commensurate with yachts that are usually much larger. 

The vessel offers nine guest staterooms, while the exterior deck areas are spacious and designed for entertaining big groups and also for intimate gatherings. "No one will feel lost" says Luiz DeBasto. The Sun Deck offers around-the-clock entertainment with a hot tub, sun-pads, TV, day head and open space.

 “With Jewels’ enormous volume, my objective was to make the exterior less bulky and give a feeling of a forward dynamic movement, rather than a static feel” says Luiz DeBasto. “I wanted the design to show movement and purpose from any angle. I achieved this with the long ascending line from the swim platform all the way up to the mast and down to the pilothouse windshield”. 

Some of Jewels’ highlights include a swim platform that make it easy for ingress and egress from tenders. The owner's stateroom and VIP suite are forward on main deck. Traffic circulation between guests and crew are completely separated on all decks, including discreet access on the lower deck between the laundry and the guest's area. Crew accommodations for 10 are on the lower deck and there is a Captain's cabin on the upper deck next to the pilothouse.

“The yacht’s general arrangement is unique and highly personalised, using all available space to maximise guest accommodation. 5 guest cabins occupy the lower deck with the typical beach club area being surrendered for an extra guest cabin. The main deck retains the typical layout with main saloon, spacious full beam owner’s suite and neighbouring VIP cabin. On the bridge deck an extra 2 cabins have been added between the bridge and upper saloon providing accommodation for 18 guests in total.” Says James Bermudez, H2 Yacht Design. “The interior design brief was established early in the design process with the client favouring a traditional yacht aesthetic combining classic teak joinery with gold inlays, bevel edged mirrors, colourful textiles and highly decorative stones."

The above graph highlights Turquoise Yachts' deliveries since 2017 and their average LOA(m). In the five years between 2017 and 2021 Turquoise Yachts have on average made one delivery every year, however, 2022 has already seen one delivery this year, as well as the launch of Jewels and another vessel still in build.

Turquoise Yachts launches 53m superyacht 'Jewels'

Turquoise Yachts is delighted to present the launch of 53m Jewels. With her chic, sharp lines and sleek geometry, Jewels is another one-of-a-kind yacht to join the Turquoise fleet. The ceremonies conducted under the theme of gold and glamour gave Jewels a warm welcome to the seas as the newest member of the Turquoise fleet.

I achieved this with the long ascending line from the swim platform all the way up to the mast and down to the pilothouse windshield”.

Notable features of Jewels include a spacious swim platform for easy access to and from tenders. The Owner's stateroom and VIP suite are located on Main Deck, Forward. Traffic circulation between guests and crew is completely separated on all decks, including discreet access on Lower Deck between the Laundry and the Guest's area.

The aim of designer Luiz de Basto of Miami-based DeBasto Designs was to make the exterior feel sporty and dynamic, despite being wrapped around a cavernous 720 GT volume and 31-foot beam.

Perhaps the biggest commitment to the owner’s mandate for comfort was the decision to surrender a beach club at the stern—something that is standard on every other superyacht—and instead add an extra guest cabin on the lower deck. The unusual design required significant layout changes to access the cabin from the main salon. The engine room had to be reduced to make space for the guest en suite. Noise and vibration levels also needed to be suppressed so sleeping was a pleasant experience.

Jewels sleeps 18 guests in total. There are two more guest cabins on the bridge deck between the bridge and upper salon (replacing the original design of a captain’s cabin and staff cabin), and a full-beam main deck owner’s suite and VIP.

Inspiration for the interior came from the owner’s private residence, which Bermudez described as having a style akin to Annabel’s, the private members’ club in London. Lavish materials and exotic textiles drip from every wall, ceiling, and surface. The yacht also features patinated mirrored ceilings, bright velvet sofas, heated marble floors and no shortage of gold leaf. Carpets are thick and soft. Much of the marble comes from Turkey, selected by the owner. He visited the shipyard every month to stay immersed in the intricate detailing.

Jewels is the second yacht from the Istanbul-based shipyard to have a turquoise steel hull matching the color of the sea, following the 2018 launch of 253-foot G O. The shipyard developed a special automated spray-paint technique for Jewels to get the turquoise exterior finish as smooth as possible. It’s mated to a white aluminum superstructure and sets the tone for the highly ornate interior.

“The interior design was established early in the design process with the client favoring a traditional yacht aesthetic,” says Bermudez.

“Traditional” in this sense seems relative to the owner, translating to heavy woods, gilded edges, bold colors, and crystal chandeliers. The lower-deck guest cabins are color themed for the owner’s daughters, including pistachio green, royal purple, and ruby red. Gold textiles are mixed with teak and walnut burl veneers. The bathrooms include bold-veined marbles and gold details. 

Giallo siena marble flooring anchors the communal areas of the main deck, while the color turquoise is used here as well to accent the furniture and curtains. The formal dining area is forward of the main salon, flanked by built-in storage cupboards and large windows.

On the bridge deck, the upper salon offers a more open and (relatively) informal lounge experience. This area features a color step change in the form of French blue. The full-beam architecture and large windows provide guests with a connection to the outdoors, with direct access to the aft deck.

Few yachts live up to their name as well as Jewels . In this case, it nods to both the onboard detailing and the precious family time spent at sea.

Turquoise Yachts’ 53m JEWELS Set to Dazzle the Monaco Yacht Show

By Frances Flannagan

JEWELS, a rare gem in the Turquoise fleet, will make her world debut at the Monaco Yacht Show this year. She is a testimony to a wonderful collaboration among the yard, the designers, and the owner, who has graciously allowed Turquoise Yachts to showcase her in Monaco.

JEWELS’ distinctive profile will set her apart from all the other superyachts in Monaco, truly making her a rare gem not just in the Turquoise  fleet, but in the world. She has elegant sharp lines and clear geometry, the design work of DeBasto Designs, and boasts a sumptuous interior design penned by H2 Yacht Design in collaboration with the owner. 

The ample space that JEWELS offers parallels that of yachts much larger, with a fantastic amount of both interior and exterior areas. The exterior decks are incredibly spacious, with the ability to entertain large groups as well as intimate gatherings. Luiz DeBasto, principal of DeBasto Designs, has stated that,  ‘no one will feel lost’. This is clearly a nod to the fantastic offerings of the yacht, specifically the sun deck, which is home to a plethora of entertainment opportunities, including a hot tub, sun-pads, TV, bar, and vast amounts of open space. 

JEWELS’ interiors are lavish with intricate detailing; unique and highly personalised to the client. The space has been used to maximise guest accommodations, with five guest cabins occupying the lower deck, a main deck with a main salon, full-beam owner’s suite and VIP stateroom, and the bridge deck with two cabins, meaning that JEWELS can accommodate 18 guests. 

‘The interior design brief was established early in the design process with the client favouring a traditional yacht aesthetic combining classic teak joinery with gold inlays, bevel-edged mirrors, colourful textiles and highly decorative stones,’ says James Bermudez from H2 Yacht Design.

The interior design represents the pinnacle of luxury, with built-in furniture embellished with gold rope detailing, marble panels in the bathroom, richly decorated furnishings and gold giallo siena marble flooring, amongst many more lavish details. A sensation of opulence pervades throughout the entirety of the yacht, showcasing the harmonious collaboration between the designer, and the owner’s desires. 

The owner frequently visited the shipyard and was extremely hands-on in the design process, even visiting Turquoise Yachts’ suppliers to pick out the material selections first-hand. This showcases the outstanding work of Turquoise Yachts’ and their ability to collaborate on such intricate and unique designs, making JEWELS' debut at Monaco even more special as she is such a personal creation. 

We at Superyachts.com cannot wait to see JEWELS at the Monaco Yacht Show, standing out as a rare gem of splendid collaboration.

JEWELS - A Rare Gem, is Added to the Turquoise Fleet of Yachts

Turquoise Yachts is proud to share an expanded portfolio of images of the recently delivered 53m JEWELS . 

JEWELS ’ exterior, with her elegant sharp lines and clear geometry, is the design work of Miami-based DeBasto Designs, and her sumptuous interior design is the creation of London- based H2 Yacht Design in collaboration with the yacht’s owner. 

At 720 GT, JEWELS  offers a fantastic amount of interior and exterior space commensurate with yachts that are usually much larger.  She offers 8 + 1 guest staterooms, while the exterior deck areas are spacious and designed for entertaining  both large groups as well as intimate gatherings. “No one will feel lost,” says Luiz DeBasto, principal of DeBasto Designs. The Sun Deck offers around-the-clock entertainment with a hot tub, sun-pads, TV, day head, bar and acres of open space. 

“The interior design brief was established early in the design process with the client favouring a traditional yacht aesthetic combining classic teak joinery with gold inlays, bevel -edged mirrors, colourful textiles and highly decorative stones,” says James Bermudez from H2 Yacht Design.

JEWELS  features a lavish interior with intricate detailing and a high level of craftsmanship. The yacht’s general arrangement is unique and highly personalised, using all available space to maximise guest accommodations. Five guest cabins occupy the lower deck as the typical beach club area was eliminated in order to achieve an extra guest cabin. The main deck has a traditional layout with main salon, spacious full beam owner’s suite and  a neighbouring VIP stateroom. On the bridge deck an extra 2 cabins have been added between the bridge and the upper saloon providing accommodation for 18 guests in total.

In the owners’ suite, stained teak window framing and door architraves are combined with bulkhead panels of flame mahogany and burl sycamore, all finished in high gloss lacquer and accented with gold inlays. Built- in furniture is embellished with gold rope detailing and warm honey onyx. In the bathroom amazonite marble panels sit on a backdrop of giallo siena stone together with teak joinery and more gold detailing. 

On the lower deck, guest cabins are colour themed; green, purple, and red with gold textiles mixed in with the teak and walnut burl veneers. In the bathrooms the decorative themes continue with the use of bold- coloured marbles along with gold details and appointments.  

Aft of the main salon is the formal lounge area with richly decorated furnishings.  Gold giallo siena marble flooring links the communal areas of the main deck The formal dining area is forward of the salon and  is flanked by beautiful built-in storage cupboards and large windows. The colour turquoise is used to accent the furniture and curtains. All in all there is a sensation of opulence throughout.

On the bridge deck, the upper salon offers a more open informal lounge experience, helped in part by the full beam architecture and windows and its connection to the aft exterior deck space. The colour theme here is French blue combined with deep gold textiles  and complimented by further use of the rich frame mahogany panelling and gold trim.

The interior decorative stairwell, with its burl timbers, giallo siena marble, custom carpets designs, decorative mirror treatments and gold balustrades is in the centre of the yacht linking all three decks.

The owner of JEWELS  was a frequent visitor to Turquoise Yachts and extremely hands-on in the interior design process. The owner discovered, with the help of our interior and projects teams, that Istanbul and its environs is a wonderful place to find exotic textiles, marble and much of his desired interior appointments. In fact, he himself visited our suppliers and picked out all of the new material selections. JEWELS is clearly a testimony to a wonderful collaboration among the yard, the designers and the owner.

US alleges sanctioned Russian oligarch’s niece made payments for his $300M yacht

The yacht, known as the Amadea, was seized by officials in 2022, with the U.S. alleging billionaire Putin ally Suleiman Kerimov is the ultimate beneficial owner.

U.S. authorities claim to be one step closer to proving a seized $300 million mega yacht is owned by sanctioned Russian Suleiman Kerimov, according to new court filings that detail alleged payments for the boat from the oligarch’s niece.

The yacht, a 348-foot luxury vessel known as Amadea, was seized in Fiji in 2022 by local officials at the request of the United States, as part of the Justice Department’s ongoing efforts to identify and seize assets of sanctioned Russian oligarchs in the wake of Russia’s 2022 invasion of Ukraine.

Kerimov, known for throwing lavish parties and for his reportedly close relationship with Vladimir Putin, was sanctioned by the U.S. in 2018. Britain and the European Union later followed suit.

However, since the Amadea’s seizure, another Russian oligarch, Eduard Khudainatov, who is not currently under U.S. sanctions, has claimed to be the yacht’s rightful owner — an assertion U.S. authorities deny.

Prosecutors allege that new documents show Kerimov’s niece, Alisa Gadzhieva, entered into a loan agreement with the company that owns the yacht, Errigal Marine Limited, and then made two payments to Khudainatov’s holding company, Invest International Finance Ltd, Intelligence Online reported .

“The United States takes sanction evasion seriously and will use all tools at its disposal to ensure that sanctioned individuals are held accountable for their crimes,” U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York Damian Williams said in an earlier statement . 

The ship belongs to an array of high-value luxury items linked to Kerimov, including private jets and sportscars, like a $650,000 Ferrari that Kerimov totaled in a fiery crash on the French Riviera in 2006.

The yacht’s seizure followed ICIJ’s Pandora Papers, which included revelations on the offshore financial empire of Kerimov and his closest associates. The investigation showed billions of dollars flowing through opaque offshore shell companies associated with Kerimov, and covert money flows tied to oligarchs and others close to the Kremlin. It also highlighted offshore professionals who have helped oligarchs secretly buy luxury assets like yachts and jets.

Gadzhieva’s brother, Kerimov’s nephew Nariman Gadzhiev, is also under U.S. sanctions for allegedly serving as an assistant and financial facilitator for Kerimov. ICIJ’s reporting showed that, in 2012, a firm registered in Gadzhiev’s name worked with Credit Suisse to secure a $67 million loan for the acquisition of a custom-built Boeing 737 Business Jet as well as a Bombardier Global Express jet. A few years later, an article in Forbes Russia described Kerimov as owning the same kind of Boeing jet.

The Amadea, which is currently in U.S. custody, has already cost over $7 million in taxpayer funds to maintain while the legal battle plays out, The Guardian reported.
