VAN DER VALK_PROJECT EVO
Van der Valk has started construction on Project EVO, a completely custom 40-metre superyacht that will be the largest built by the yard to date in terms of length and volume. Its sleek exterior was originally penned by SFG Yacht Design and Fancy by Dada, with Cristiano Gatto Design adding new length and angles to the profile while also creating an exceptionally detailed interior. Ordered by experienced clients, who have previously owned a number of high-performance yachts, project Evo will have an impressive volume for her length and will include
first-class accommodations for ten, including a master stateroom on the main deck, plus two twin guest suites and two VIPs on the lower deck. While details of the entirely bespoke interior style are being kept under wraps for now, Gatto says, “The process from first renders to interior concept took around ten months, an exceptional timeframe for a 40-metre project that will truly deserve to be called a mini-megayacht. This all-aluminium bluewater cruiser will have a round bilged fast displacement hull and a target top speed of 24 knots. vandervalkshipyard.com
