Additional amenities include entertainment areas such as a media room with a cinema and game table, as well as a private terrace with a whirlpool.

Project Silence, an 80-meter (262-ft) superyacht constructed by Bilgin Yachts, is set to make a grand entrance this year. It features a spacious main deck with a large swimming pool, while the owner's deck above will provide complete privacy. The top deck will host the wheelhouse, offering enhanced visibility. Passengers can conveniently access all areas through a central staircase in the hull or a stunning spherical lift. With two MTU 16V 4000M73 engines, Project Silence will achieve a top speed of 19 knots (22 mph/35 kph), showcasing impressive performance capabilities. 

Baglietto T52 Hybrid
Baglietto's T52, also known as hull number 10238, is an exceptional hybrid superyacht and the inaugural vessel in the TLine range designed by Francesco Paszkowski Design.
