Built by one of today’s most revered shipyards, Tankoa, the 236-foot (72m) motor yacht was launched in Genoa on August 1, 2018. More than 60 select guests from the shipyard, as well as brokers and clients, looked on as this masterpiece made her way into the water on a hot, sunny Italian summer day.
After a Rabbi blessed the yacht, a compulsory bottle of prosecco was smashed on the bulb of the yacht to officially signify her joining the global yachting fleet. Less than an hour later she was sitting — or floating — pretty, ready for her next great adventure.
Launch attendees were then ushered to a nearby restaurant for a seafood feast to celebrate the event in true Italian style, enjoying tapas and sharing cheers with prosecco and white wine on a job well done. After enjoying libations, guests headed back to the yard to take photos of the yacht, now proudly moored in the water.
SOLO is the latest masterwork of the revered Italian shipyard Tankoa. Launched hot on the heels of her predecessor sisterships, SUERTE and VERTIGE — both of which regard much acclamation — SOLO is anticipated to be the summer blockbuster on the charter market.
