Iconic yachts: On board Oceanco's striking 81m superyacht Alfa Nero
Big, black and beautiful, the 81.27 metre Oceanco motor yacht Alfa Nero makes an incredibly powerful impression.
Although she is so large, the secret feature of Alfa Nero is that she is definitely not ‘high volume’ in the sense of trying to cram in every possible cubic metre of accommodation like a modern cruise ship.
On the contrary, the first impression you receive on stepping aboard is of wide-open decks leading into big uncrowded rooms. The exterior and layout designers Nuvolari Lenard clearly agree with the notion that the ultimate luxury afloat is open space. In fact, with four decks to play with and only twelve guests to accommodate, they could afford to be exceptionally generous in their use of space.
The most spectacular visual trick is the first one you see: a sizeable swimming pool with a built-in current and an ‘infinity’ aft side where the water overflows across a large sloping sheet of glass to create a waterfall effect.
This is particularly effective at night when both the pool and the waterfall are under-lit and the movement of the water creates an ever-changing light show. The pool is set in a wide expanse of open deck which extends well aft from the superstructure, creating a lido which can equally well serve as a party deck.
Having been one of the first designers to explore the possibilities of art deco afloat, Alberto Pinto has moved forward to the even more surprising era of pop art with the work of Roy Lichtenstein providing the inspiration.
In addition to a number of Lichtenstein prints in his famous comic-strip style, Alberto Pinto has managed to create an entire decor based on them with zigs-zags of woodwork or kid leather, bold stripes of flooring, swirling patterns on upholstery, bright primary colours for lacquered woodwork, or high-gloss zebrano with its vibrant stripey grain.
Here you will find no gracious oak-panelled rooms, nor any varnished teak capping rails – all is new and modern.
This is a big vessel with a big crew, capable of giving unrivalled standards of comfort and service to a fortunate few. The overall impression is of an incredibly spacious yacht with large, uncrowded guest areas and generous cabins, while exceptional use has been made of the exterior decks. Looking up at Alfa Nero ’s impressive outline, you might wonder what has become of pretty white yachts.

Motor Yacht
Motor yacht Alfa Nero was launched in 2007 by renowned Dutch shipyard OceAnco, bursting onto the yachting scene with uncommon fervour by breaking the contemporary mould of large superyacht design. At 82 metres her build triggered a paradigm shift in luxury yacht design with exteriors by the celebrated team at Nuvolari & Lenard and interiors from the talented Alberto Pinto.
Constructed with a steel hull and aluminium superstructure, Alfa Nero can accommodate 12 guests in six lavish cabins. With 1,250-square metres of living space across her 82 metre hull, she provides plenty of space for a bridge deck gym, three separate dining areas, a dance room, pantries on the three guest decks, a separate crew lounge, and a lift servicing and connecting all decks.
The build of motor yacht Alfa Nero was driven by a desire to offer her owners the ultimate luxury cruising experience in their home sailing grounds of the Mediterranean, maximising the lifestyle elements of this part of the world.
This easily recognisable luxury vessel is anything but short of innovative facilities. Amongst her stand-out features is the Nuvolari-designed aft deck ‘beach club’ which features an immense glass-ended pool whose floor can be partially or fully raised, transforming it into a dance floor or helipad on demand.
Her exterior is highlighted by a long, low stern which dominates a large proportion of the super yacht’s length and leads her sleek profile. To outside on-lookers, her most eye-catching feature is the open aft deck and minimal overhangs that offer a departure from conventional design. Each overhang is defined by a stainless steel, oval rail that serves a purpose as illuminative, decorative or environmental.
Outdoor living is undoubtedly a significant feature of her design as she features an impressive amount of space for leisure and entertainment including the 7 x 3.5m swimming pool which stands as one of the largest ever incorporated on a yacht.
The pop-art inspired Pinto interior hints at a nautical theme, particularly evident in details such as side tables resembling staghorn coral and seashell images lining the guest hallway. The intricate staircase wrapping around the glass elevator shaft, two al fresco spa-pools, massage room and gym only add to the subtle elegance of the luxurious vessel.
Amongst her six cabins are an indulgent master stateroom; two double VIP suites; one double guest cabin; and two twin guest cabins. Luxury yacht Alfa Nero is powered by two MTU 4,680hp diesel engines that allow her to reach a maximum speed of 20 knots and cruise comfortably at 18.

History of Tver
Tver in the 12th-16th centuries.
Tver has a rich history dating back to the first half of the 12th century. Officially, the year of foundation of the city is 1135. According to archaeological data, a settlement on the cape at the confluence of the T’maka River with the Volga existed already in the 9th-10th centuries. In the 12th century, it was a small trading settlement. The first birch bark letter, found in Tver on the territory of the old Tver Kremlin, dates back to 1200-1220.
In the first third of the 13th century, Tver was part of the Principality of Pereyaslavl. In 1238, the town was ravaged by the Mongols, but quickly recovered from the defeat. In 1247, Tver became the capital of the Principality of Tver.
The geographical position of Tver on an important trade route connecting Novgorod with northeastern Russia, and the relative remoteness from the Golden Horde contributed to the influx of population from other Russian lands into the region. The growth of Tver was also caused by the change in its political role. In 1264, Prince Yaroslav of Tver became the Grand Duke of Vladimir, but stayed to live in Tver.
Chronicles and stone construction were resumed in Tver for the first time in Rus after a 50-year hiatus. Tver developed its own original art school: architecture, icon painting, jewelry, decorative and applied arts. Its own coin was also minted here.
More Historical Facts…
In the summer of 1327, after the arrival of the khan’s ambassador Shevkal in Tver, rumors spread about the imminent conversion of the residents of Tver to Islam. A powerful uprising broke out in the town. With the help of Ivan Kalita, Grand Duke of Moscow, it was brutally suppressed; Tver was ruined. The suppression of the uprising marked the beginning of the decline of Tver.
Until the second half of the 15th century, Tver was subjected to repeated attacks by the Mongols and Moscow. In this struggle, Tver gradually lost its leading position among the old principalities of North-Eastern Russia. Moscow became the unifier of the Russian lands. This struggle undermined the strength of Tver. However, in the 14th-15th centuries, it remained a large trade, craft, and cultural center, one of the most developed Russian towns. In 1485, Moscow troops occupied Tver, the Tver Principality ceased to exist and became part of the emerging Russian centralized state.
In the 16th century, the oldest surviving church in Tver, the Trinity Church, known as the White Trinity, was built. In December 1569, Tver was plundered by the oprichnina army of Ivan IV the Terrible during his campaign against Novgorod.
Tver in the 17th-19th centuries
At the beginning of the 17th century, about 10,000 people lived in Tver. In 1612, during the Time of Troubles, it was completely devastated by the Polish-Lithuanian troops. In 1629, the town had 11 abandoned churches and monasteries, 1,450 empty houses. In 1685, its population was about 4,600 residents.
In the 18th century, after the founding of St. Petersburg, Tver became an important communication point between the new capital of Russia and Moscow. In 1701, by order of Peter I, a floating bridge on rafts was built in Tver, which existed until 1900. By 1709, the construction of the Vyshnevolotsk water system was completed, which connected the Volga with the Baltic Sea.
A lot of civil buildings were constructed in Tver. Many of them have survived to this day. The oldest of them is considered to be the house of the merchant Arefiev, which houses the museum of Tver everyday life now.
In 1763, a fire destroyed the central part of Tver. The main features of the new regular planning of the town were the long axial Millionnaya (Sovetskaya) Street, named so because a million rubles were allocated for the construction of stone houses in the town center; as well as the “Versailles trident” - a three-rayed composition of streets converging at one point, modeled on a similar urban planning technique used in St. Petersburg.
In 1764-1766, the main attraction of Tver was constructed - the Travel Palace of Empress Catherine in the style of classicism with baroque elements, designed by M.F. Kazakov. The palace was intended for the rest of the members of the imperial family on the way from St. Petersburg to Moscow. In 1787, the population of Tver was about 15,100 people.
In 1851, Tver was connected with St. Petersburg and Moscow by the Nikolaev railway. In the second half of the 19th century, a steamship society, a weaving manufactory, a mechanical plant for the production of parts for textile machines, sawmills, and other enterprises were opened in Tver. In 1850-1860, three textile factories were founded in Tver.
Tver in the 20th century and beyond
In 1900, a permanent bridge across the Volga River was built in Tver, designed by the Czech engineer L. Mashek. In 1914, the population of Tver was 63,900 people. With the outbreak of the First World War, the Russian Empire experienced problems in exchanging information with its allies - France and the British Empire, since most of the European land lines passed through the German Empire. The key role in the exchange of information between the allies was played by the Tver special purpose radio station of the Russian military department. During the war, the Russian-Baltic Carriage Works were evacuated to Tver from Riga.
In the 1920s-1930s, dozens of churches, architectural monuments of the 17th-19th centuries, were closed and destroyed in the city. On November 20, 1931, Tver was renamed Kalinin, in honor of M.I. Kalinin, the Soviet party and statesman, a native of the Tver Governorate. In 1935, Kalinin became the administrative center of Kalinin Oblast. The population of the city was 216,131 people in 1939.
On October 17, 1941, during the Second World War, the city was captured by the Germans, however, their further advance was delayed, and in the northwest direction it was completely stopped. It was under German occupation for about two months. During the occupation and heavy fighting, the city was badly damaged, more than half of the residential buildings and about 70 enterprises were destroyed. Until the liberation of Rzhev (March 3, 1943), Kalinin was subjected to systematic raids by German aircraft.
On November 1, 1945, a decree was adopted on the priority restoration of 15 most important cities of Russia destroyed during the war, including the city of Kalinin. In the 1950s-1960s, magnificent buildings in the style of Stalinist classicism were erected: the drama theater (1951), the library named after M. Gorky, the technical school on Lenin Avenue (1957), the ensembles of Novopromyshlennaya Square, Peace Square, Gagarin Square.
In the second half of the 20th century, an electrical equipment plant, a chemical fiber plant, a silicate brick plant, a silk-weaving factory, a meat processing plant, a pharmaceutical factory, a fiberglass plant, etc. were opened in Kalinin. It became not only a large industrial city, but also an important transport hub. In 1961, a river port and a circular highway were opened here, connecting highways to Moscow, Leningrad, Rzhev, and Volokolamsk.
In 1989, the population of Tver was 450,941 people. By the early 1990s, there were about 80 industrial enterprises of 28 industries, 5 universities, 3 theaters, 12 movie theaters, 8 palaces of culture in Kalinin. On July 17, 1990, the historical name and coat of arms were returned to the city.
Due to the negative economic consequences caused by the collapse of the Soviet Union, active development in the city temporarily ceased. The only new microdistrict built in the 1990s-2000s was the microdistrict Mamulino, built for the withdrawal of a contingent of Soviet troops from East Germany in 1993.
The new economic reality turned out to be disastrous for the local industry, especially the light one, traditional for the city, as a result of which the largest enterprises of Tver stopped their work, which caused an increase in the level of unemployment and social tension.
In the mid-2000s, large-scale housing construction resumed in Tver, active construction of public buildings, shopping and entertainment centers began. At the same time, new industrial enterprises were commissioned.

Tver - Features
There are several versions about the etymology of the name of Tver. According to one of them, it was named after the Tvertsa River, and Tvertsa, in turn, is derived from the Finnish word “tiort” (“fast”). According to another version, the name of the city comes from the Slavic “tverd” (“fortress”). In addition, this name is associated with the Polish word “twierdza” (“fortress”) and the Lithuanian words “tvora” (“fence”) and “tverti” (“to enclose”).
Tver is located at the intersection of the railway and highway connecting Moscow and St. Petersburg with the Volga in its upper reaches; about 180 km north-west of Moscow and 520 km south-east of St. Petersburg. The City Day of Tver is celebrated on the last Saturday of June.
The climate in Tver is moderately continental, with cold and rather long winters and warm, humid summers. The average temperature in February is minus 8.3 degrees Celsius, in July - plus 19.8 degrees Celsius.

Tver is one of the largest industrial centers in Russia. The main industrial sectors of the city are mechanical engineering, printing, and food processing.
