Dynamiq Reveals Stunning New GTT 160 Superyacht

By Alex Martin

Dynamiq Yachts is aiming to redefine the 160ft superyacht category with the unveiling of its all-new Dynamiq GTT 160.

The Monaco-based shipyard is offering the full-aluminum, 54.5-meter (162ft) superyacht for approximately $21.5m with a build time of 24 months, granting a new level of accessibility to ownership.

The Dynamiq GTT 160 has been designed with a focus on creating the perfect superyacht for the modern-day owner, one hungry for adventure. The yacht offers the performance and accessibility of one far larger but in a more manageable and economical package.

“The idea was to create the most attractive proposal for a superyacht of just under 50 meters,” says Sergei Dobroserdov, Dynamiq founder and CEO. “There are so many 50-meter yachts below 500GT available, but they all look very similar with pretty much the same functionality.

A huge beach club has a hot tub with room for 12 guests

“We asked ourselves ‘What can we bring to the market that makes more sense for our clients?’ The answer was to focus on modern owners’ priorities and leave the less important things aside. So we decided to design the GTT 160 with the accent on the key factors: well-being, efficiency and price.

“In terms of naval architecture, we selected a slender hull with a long waterline that is much more efficient and comfortable than a short, wide one. So rather than maximizing the interior volume we analyzed everything an owner wants or needs in terms of general arrangement and features. We then arrived at a concept that provides the motion comfort of a 55-meter yacht with a conventional flared bow.”

A First Look at SkyStyle’s 233-foot Superyacht Concept

It offers luxurious accommodation for 12 guests in six cabins and crew quarters for up to eight staff. The master stateroom enjoys pride of place on the main deck forward and features two large fixed side balconies.

There is also a big focus on entertainment. The vast galley has a breakfast bar that can be used by both a professional chef or for cooking in the company of friends. There is also a cinema lounge, a bar area on the upper deck and a sundeck offering ample room for sunbathing.

The Dynamiq GTT 160 can reach speeds of 23 knots if fitted with the S version

Most impressively, the main deck aft is dedicated to a massive   beach club with a hot tub for 12 people and enclosed Spa area with sauna, hammam and a convertible gymnasium with space for a massage table. These features are more typical of vessels twice her size. There is a helipad with a maximum take-off weight of 3.3 tons.

As well as looking the part, the Dynamiq GTT 160 also benefits from state-of-the-art onboard technology. Hydrodynamic specialist Van Oossanen Naval Architects designed the fast displacement hull that decreases drag and improves fuel efficiency.

The yacht can achieve a top speed of 17 knots with a cruising speed of 14 knots and a range of 4,000 nm. An S version can reach 23 knots. Dynamiq are also offering an optional hybrid system with zero-emission electric mode, which can provide silent cruising at up to eight knots.

The Dynamiq GTT 160 can be configured at  bedynamiq.com with an almost endless amount of options.

Take a look inside this $3 million superyacht that sails in Croatian waters and features a hot tub and Jet Ski

• Insider was invited to stay on the Ohana, which sails around the islands of Croatia.
• The 160-foot yacht features a Jet Ski and hot tub and can accommodate up to 36 guests. 
• Take a look inside the superyacht and see how it will look after its forthcoming revamp.

This 160-foot yacht, worth $3 million, cruises Croatian waters and costs between $60,000 and $90,000 a week to charter, depending on the season.

The charter company Goolets invited Insider to experience the Ohana, which boasts a Jet Ski and a hot tub.

The Ohana's captain, Josip Šerka, also owns the vessel. His two brothers have their own yachts as well.

The yacht has four levels, with the bottom deck mainly used for guest and crew cabins.

The restaurant is on the main deck, which also has some guest cabins. It also features an outdoor-seating area with access to the swimming platform.

The bridge, along with the saloon and additional seating areas at the front and rear, is on the second deck.

The yacht anchored in the Adriatic sea near Omiš, south of Split. Guests are able to enjoy some water activities — or simply swim.

The paddleboards and kayaks were a plus.

The top deck has a hot tub and is also home to a Jet Ski and dinghy.

The hot tub, which is on the upper deck, can accommodate about six people.

Staff serve a breakfast buffet daily between 8 a.m. and 9:30 a.m., but guests can ask for snacks at any time.

Eight crew members and the captain staff the yacht.

The chef is responsible for lunch and dinner for more than 30 people every day — and every dish I tried was great.

The yacht is going to be refitted after the charter company suggested some modifications, which will cost between $500,000 and $800,000.

After the refit, the sun deck will feature a hot tub, a fireplace, barbecue, and an outdoor gym.

The outdoor-dining area will also get an update.

There will be a media room where guests can watch movies or play video games.

The yacht will also gain a children's playroom in the refit.

Correction: November 2, 2022  — This article has been updated to more accurately reflect the cost of chartering the yacht, which is $60,000 to $90,000 a week. The company says a previously cited range of $80,000 to $100,000 will be the weekly cost after a coming refurbishment.

Boat of the Week: This 160-Foot All-Carbon Superyacht Is Like a Bond Villain Lair That Floats

Click here to read the full article.

If Bond villain Francisco Scaramanga could buy any yacht, the man with the golden gun would choose 160-foot Khalilah . Bow to stern in custom color Cordova Gold, with a matching 23-foot gold tender, this yacht was built to turn heads.

Khalilah is also historic: She is the first all-carbon superyacht ever built and the first hull in Palmer Johnson ’s Supersport series. The owners have a penchant for gold since Khalilah is their second gold yacht, and third Palmer Johnson.

Heesen's Hulking New 180-Footer Has More Interior Space Than Almost Any Yacht Her Size

“These owners wanted something that really stands out, that was very important to them,” SuperYachtsMonaco managing director Jim Evans told Robb Report during an exclusive virtual tour . “It’s not just the color of the boat, but the design that is radical compared to other yachts. If you don’t want to be seen and recognized on the water, then this is not the yacht for you.”

With a top speed of 26 knots, however, the “sportiness” refers more to the “radical” exterior than performance. Scalloped edges along the sides meet at a “wave-penetrating” bow, while both stern quarters feature sponsons that resemble those on a trimaran hull. The yacht is currently in Genoa undergoing a two-million Euro refit to have stabilizers fitted as well as the stern area lengthened to create a larger beach club.

Like the gold exterior, the interior is also eclectic. Clashing color palettes are paired with an diverse assortment of materials and cultural influences. When in port during the making of the virtual tour, two of the owner’s Japanese BE@RBRICK figurines were placed on the aft deck. Coveted by pop art collectors, they’re a good litmus test for whether the rest of the interior will be to a potential owners’ liking. There are also sculptures of Buddha, a squid-like chandelier in the main salon, and Arabic influences in the joinery.

A cactus-wood dining table and sunpads on the aft deck lead into the full beam main salon, featuring 20-foot floor-to-ceiling windows on both sides. Light and airy it is the hub of the yacht. Karelian Birch is used on the walls and bar–it was the only wood used by Peter Carl Fabergé to make the only organic-material Fabergé egg for the Russian royal family in 1917). Islamic-inspired lattice work begins in the main salon and continues into the cabins and hallways; Khalilah meaning “friend” in Arabic.

In an unusual twist to the layout, the master suite forward shares its location with the main deck VIP. What this layout loses in space makes up by providing an extra, fifth cabin. A second full-beam VIP is located on the lower deck.

Other quirky design features include the open-plan galley with a breakfast-bar setup, the bridge deck with its upper helm and jacuzzi arrangement, and the “under the sea” mosaic tiling in the children’s twin cabin, with a polished gold mosaic shower floor and bench seat.

Khalilah has kept to Mediterranean waters since delivery. A hatch on the port side of the aft deck leads to a large bathing platform where toys and tenders can be easily accessed and launched. Not quite a beach club, it offers a space away from the aft deck for watersports enthusiasts.

“The owner had a large amount of input in the design, working with the build captain on the general arrangement as well as the finishes,” says Evans. “The interior design is either love it or loathe, but the build itself is absolutely amazing, and few yachts will ever make a statement like Khalilah .”

Khalilah is listed for sale with SuperYachtsMonaco for $31.4 million.

Check out the rest of the yacht below and then look at the highly detailed virtual tour .

Blue Coast 160’ - A green trimaran… that’s retractable!

Article published on 17/07/2023

By Kim Wellington

published in n°SP20 aug. / sept.

Naval architect Jean-Jacques Coste has come up with an astonishing 160-foot (48 m) trimaran intended to be built in carbon. 

Create a notification for "Trimaran"

We will keep you posted on new articles on this subject.

In addition to energy management and production systems that make it possible to do away with using fossil fuels for most situations, by drawing on the powerful BMS lithium-ion battery pack, the BLUE COAST 160 features folding linkage arms to reduce its beam from 75 feet (23 m) when under way to 36 feet (11 m) in harbor or at anchor. This “reasonable” width, combined with a draft of less than 6 feet (2 m), will allow this ambitious trimaran to stop in areas that would obviously normally be off-limits to a yacht of such beam... Seen from above, the arrowhead-shaped deck of the central hull is surprisingly reminiscent (albeit much more slender, due to its length) of the Allegro, a little 26-foot trimaran launched back in 1976...

Like most Catamaris® constructions, the BLUE COAST 160 is built as a prestigious triple-decked, one-off, adaptable to suit your preferences in terms of number and layout of cabins, interior fittings and furnishings. For example, there's a garage and platform designed to house, and transfer ashore, a car! An electric one, of course!

The BLUE COAST 160 is fully automated for optimum ease of use and the ultimate level of comfort. Builder: Catamaris Naval architect and design: Coste Design Length: 157’5” (48 m) Beam: 36’1”/75’9” (11/23.1 m) Draft: 5’10” (1.8 m) Sail area: 3,875 sq ft (360 m²) Max. speed under power: 15 knots Number of cabins: 9 including 3 crew cabins www.catamaris.com

While the racing heritage of the J/Boats-TPI partnership is legendary and their genuine contribution to the Joy Of Sailing enormous, nothing yet produced by that design-and-build team punctuates those achievements as impressively as the new J/160. In today’s world of better equipment, more exotic materials and truly sophisticated design, stretching the parameters of the old “performance cruiser” is long overdue. This boat gives modern sailors racing and cruising performance without requiring the burden of a large crew. On a more subjective level, all in a glance she is clean, simple, elegant, comfortable, fast and capable.

With modern composite construction, a typically easily-driven J/Boat hull form and a very low center of gravity, the 160 needs less sail area for comparable performance than do other sailboats in the 50-foot-plus size range. This translates into lower winch loads, easier sail management, more relaxed cruising and racing.

The standard Hall triple-spreader aluminum rig (a Hall carbon fiber rig is a tempting, albeit expensive, option) carries a large, low-aspect-ratio mainsail and a comparatively small, high-aspect-ratio foretriangle. This big-main/small-headsail combination is efficient for any kind of sailing and easily managed by a diminutive crew. For relaxed cruising or offshore work, a furling #3 jib is recommended in conjunction with the main. The jib is a cinch to tack, and trimming the main with the 6:1 Lewmar Ocean Racing mainsheet traveler system is equally unconstrained.

On deck and in the cockpit the hardware and winches are arranged so that almost all sail handling, hoisting and trimming can be done easily from a safe position aft. Sitting outboard of the large (66″) wheel gives the helmsperson an excellent view forward, and this driver’s seat actually becomes more comfortable as the boat heels. Leaving the helm station to go forward in the cockpit is a step-up-and-go-around-the-wheel affair, potentially awkward in dicey sailing conditions. All the way aft, the scoop transom makes for convenient boarding from the water, dinghy or dock. Up on the bow, a large storage locker with an overhead deck hatch provides room to stow sails, ground tackle, lines, fenders and errant gear.

Setting a spinnaker on a 53-foot sailboat without a full crew was never at the top of most people’s Must Do list. Enter the modern-day asymmetrical kite, a retractable pole disguised as a bowsprit, and a cockpit-operated snuffer system. On the 160, relaxed shorthanded spinnaker work becomes routine. And that’s without even going forward.

Belowdeck, the 160 is nothing short of elegant. The interior is offered in all-teak or all-cherry wood, with enough off-white laminate and trim to promote that open, spacious sensation. The layout emphasizes liveaboard and long-term cruising comfort, with pumps and machinery grouped in convenient, accessible locations for easy inspection and service.

Aft of the companionway to port and starboard are two staterooms, one accessible to the after head, sink and shower. The cabins are snug yet comfortable, with 48-inch wide berths and good available storage. Just forward of the companionway to port is a roomy J-shaped galley, with a double sink close to centerline and a gimbaled three-burner Force 10 stove outboard. Icebox/refrigerator capacity is vast (12.5 cubic feet), general storage is ample, the wraparound design of the galley, secure and safe.

The forward-facing nav station opposite the galley offers visible and protected space for mounting the latest yacht electronics. Extra-tall fiddles keep charts, books and pencils from ending up on the floor; a curved, contoured seat keeps the navigator from doing the same. The main saloon features a settee berth to starboard and a full-size pilot berth outboard of the oval dining settee to port. All the way forward is the owner’s cabin — truly a “stateroom” — with a 56″ x 78″ double berth, shelves, storage and hanging lockers, a vanity, a private head with shower…the works.

Engine and mechanical installations are excellent. Seacocks are tagged, all plumbing hoses below the waterline are double clamped, access to machinery — engine, shaft, optional generator, watermaker and so on — is handy, and ventilation to those areas is good. A turbo-charged 88-horsepower Yanmar connected to a 22-inch Martec folding prop delivers a comfortable and quiet cruising speed of 8 knots plus. Tankage is formidable at 95 gallons for fuel and 162 for fresh water.

Construction emphasizes light weight by way of TPI’s signature SCRIMP resin-infusion molding technique. Hull and deck are cored with Baltek end-grain balsa, with solid glass at critical structural junctures such as where the chainplates attach. All bulkheads are tabbed on both sides. Hull-to-deck features an in-turned flange sealed with structural sealant and fastened mechanically every four inches.

The hull is designed with a fine entry and short overhangs, moderate topside flare, and a low-wetted-surface underbody. The rudder is a balanced high-aspect spade. Two antimony-hardened cast lead keels are offered, the deeper of which is 11,000 pounds and draws 8’10″, the other 12,000 pounds and 7’0″. They are externally mounted. The non-dimensional ratios point to a lot of sailpower and relatively light displacement, and the limit of positive stability according to the designer is a whopping 140 degrees (a respectable 125 degrees by IMS calculations).

Sailing the 160 is every bit as fun as advertised. Hoisting the main takes a tolerable amount of effort (unless you spring for the electric winch option), and from there you simply pick a direction and go fast. Extending the bowsprit, setting the kite, jibing it and dousing it are simple. Behavior on all points of sail is truly refined; the platform feels as stable as something much larger, but the response to helm, trim and tweaking is very apparent.

The base price of the J/160 is advertised at $497,550, with an estimated sailaway figure, depending upon your choice of equipment, sails and rig, in the $550,000 to $700,000 range. If you require quality, performance, elegance, safety, a yacht built to exceed the Offshore Yacht Service standards of ABS, and a 10-year hull warranty against blistering, then this boat has to be at the top of the list. Rod Johnstone has expanded the parameters of the “performance cruiser” genre, and TPI has built the vessel strong enough to prove that lighter can be better.

Crew is one of the largest expenses on a superyacht and critical to the owner’s enjoyment of their vessel. As the largest crew agency in the world, we know crew. Our cost calculator contains customized crew lists for yachts ranging from 80ft to 600ft with salary information based on our reference verified salary data.

Our users also have the ability to completely tailor the crew list to the specific needs, schedule and requirements of their vessel. Each yacht is unique and may have specific owner requests in addition to the yacht’s safe manning requirements.

Management of the supplemental crew costs and strategic budgeting can help avoid significant overspend on categories such as food and uniform. This tool contains default values based on our industry expertise and recommended budget for an efficiently and safely run superyacht.

To learn more about each crew position in detail, including salary ranges, please visit our yacht department directory .

Drag the sliders to modify your results. These are not linear scales and we expect most yachts to operate within the 20-80% window. Above 80% and below 20% costs increase or decrease at exaggerated levels and we only see numbers in these levels in very rare circumstances.

This sunburst diagram is interactive. You can click into each block to see the expense break down and mouse over each block for more details.

Our chart of accounts displays seven major categories, 20 sub-categories plus a further 80 detail categories for a total of 107.

Our yacht operating cost calculator is now on it’s third major revision. We start with actual yacht expense data from our yacht management accountants and then generate formulas to extrapolate out the budget for a wide range of yachts. We have been providing accounting services to large yachts for the past 18 years.

Our operating cost calculator is tuned for yachts from 80 to 600 feet. We find operating variables create the largest variances for yachts smaller than 100 feet and larger than 250 feet. We have tested the numbers the most in the range from 100 to 250 feet.

Our budget calculator factors in the fuel burn for a range of engine sizes typically seen installed on yachts by length. By dragging the green “fuel dockage” slider to the right you will increase the projected fuel burn rate and therefore the budget cost for fuel. Our default position would be for a typical displacement fuel burn. Position the slider in the 60-80% range for fuel projections for planning hulls.

Our default values produce a budget number that we believe is generous to run a yacht to a high standard. Perfect is a very expensive word to use in the yachting industry where standards are already high. Moving the crew and maintenance sliders to 80% will provide an “industry best” quality of crew and give them the maintenance budget to operate to a very high standard. If you need to go over the 80% area then you may have unusually labor intensive equipment on the yacht.

Yes, our yacht operating cost calculator can output a budget suitable for this situation. Adjust the owner use to 2 (minimum value), owner slider to 0, crew slider to 10%, Administration to 10%, Fuel and Dockage to 0, Maintenance to 10% and then Capital Repairs to 0. This will remove all of the large charges associated with owner use and vessel movement but leave the essential base maintenance and insurance in place.

Lift on and float in yacht transport is a popular way to transport yachts across large ocean passage. The yachts that this service certainly applies to are ones that may not have the motoring range or structural integrity for blue ocean cruising. The cost of transporting a yacht twice per year is put into our budget once the “Fuel Dockage” slider hits 75%. If your yacht has the range we recommend self-sufficient ocean passages whenever possible. Whilst the transport companies sell their services based upon reportedly well oiled operated schedules the reality is that your yacht may stay waiting for pickup for a week or more with no compensation due. When factoring in all secondary factors of self-sufficient passages (increased fuel, maintenance, potential storm damage, crew time off, extra delivery crew) compared with transporting your yacht (insurance, potential loading / unloading damage, loss of schedule control, no work whilst underway, crew flights, crew accommodation) we believe that there is a 100% premium associated with float in transport and a 75% premium with lift on transport compared with self-powered.

Abandoned yachts crash in value. We recommend that even if you are trying to sell your yacht that you use the yacht for a minimum of two weeks per year so that systems are tested and working every six months. There is nothing worse for a yacht than not being used. If you truly are not going to use the yacht then you should sell it immediately for the first genuine offer as every dollar you put into maintenance will not be recovered at the time of the sale.

We did not build this version with sailing yachts in mind. Early in our development of this version we decided to exclude sailing yachts as a few of the major cost drivers scale very differently for sailing yachts compared with motor yachts. For example: To calculate paint costs we reviewed the surface area of over 100 large yachts and created a formula for painted surface area to length. Sailing yachts just don’t scale in a consistent way. Similarly crew numbers don’t scale in the same manner that they do for motor yachts. If there is sufficient demand we may build a sailing selector switch into a future version of this tool.

We hate to hear when yacht owners were told by their broker to factor in 10% of the purchase price to operate the yacht. This over used saying is sadly right occasionally (particularly for newer yachts in the $20-30M range)… but just because a broken watch tells the right time twice a day you shouldn’t rely upon it to tell the time. As yachts get older their capital value decreases but their maintenance costs increase. There is no way that a fixed 10% of purchase cost rule can be true… if your broker told you this rule then you need a new yacht broker… we know some good ones. 😊

Breaking news, inside the jaw-dropping $1b superyacht equipped with its own detachable blimp.

Thanks for contacting us. We've received your submission.

An unbelievable $1 billion superyacht that comes with its own detachable airship is gearing up to dominate the seas.

Plans for the jaw-dropping Colossea — a 699-foot-long cruiser — were debuted this week by Italian designer Pierpaolo Lazzarini , famous for his futuristic designs.

The sleek and futuristic vessel looks much like any other superyacht coasting across the ocean, except for the incredible blimp stationed on its upper deck, equipped with technology that would allow it to take off for its own voyage from the middle of the ocean.

“The Colossea mega-yacht is an itinerant floating docking station for the detachable airship,” Lazzarini’s namesake design studio said in a statement.

The concept was born from the same design group that introduced the Plectrum: a futuristic, 242-foot superyacht capable of traveling at speeds of 86 miles per hour above the water line — similar to a hoverboard.  

The conceptual design for the Colossea was crafted as a tribute to the N1 airship Norge, which made the first trip of any kind to the North Pole nearly a century ago.

The Colossea’s blimp replicates the same iconic design and measurements as its predecessor but with modern materials and propulsion.

It would also include its own major upgrade — a super-yacht with a take-off and landing strip perfectly formed to the blimp’s curvature.

When the captain decides it’s time for flight, the yacht follows the procedures to unlock the electromagnetic blocks that keep the airship mounted and unhook the winches to release the airship’s lift.

Up to 24 lucky passengers, plus 10 crewmembers, can fit inside the blimp.

The yacht is an impressive feat of design in its own right — it offers 22 guest suites and multiple decks with indoor and outdoor pools on the rear.

It also had space on its deck for a helicopter pad, a typically grand feature that pales in comparison to the blimp.

Up to 44 guests and 20 crew members can enjoy the yacht.

While only still a conceptual design, the Colossea would cost an estimated $1 billion to construct.

Russian oligarch's yacht is costing U.S. taxpayers close to $1 million a month

A mega-yacht seized by U.S. authorities from a Russian oligarch is costing the government nearly $1 million a month to maintain, according to new court filings.

• The Justice Department is seeking permission to sell Amadea, which it seized in 2022, alleging that it was owned by sanctioned Russian billionaire Suleiman Kerimov.
• Attorneys for Eduard Khudainatov, an ex-Rosneft CEO who has not been sanctioned, say he owns the yacht, and have sought to take back possession of the vessel.

The U.S. Department of Justice is seeking permission to sell a 348-foot yacht called Amadea, which it seized in 2022, alleging that it was owned by sanctioned Russian billionaire Suleiman Kerimov. The government said it wants to sell the $230 million yacht due to the "excessive costs" of maintenance and crew, which it said could total $922,000 a month.

"It is excessive for taxpayers to pay nearly a million dollars per month to maintain the Amadea when these expenses could be reduced to zero through [a] sale," according to a court filing by U.S. prosecutors on Friday.

The monthly charges for Amadea, which is now docked in San Diego, California, include $600,000 per month in running costs: $360,000 for the crew; $75,000 for fuel; and $165,000 for maintenance, waste removal, food and other expenses. They also include $144,000 in monthly pro-rata insurance costs and special charges including dry-docking fees, at $178,000, bringing the total to $922,000, according to the filings.

The battle over Amadea and the costs to the government highlight the financial and legal challenges of seizing and selling assets owned by Russian oligarchs after the country's invasion of Ukraine. European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen said last week that the European Union should use profits from more than $200 billion of frozen Russian assets to fund Ukraine's war effort.

Her comments echoed government calls in the spring of 2022 to freeze the yachts, private jets and mansions of Russian billionaires in hopes of putting pressure on Russian President Vladimir Putin and raising money for the war effort.

Yet, nearly two years later, the legal process for proving ownership of the Russian assets and selling them has proven to be far more time-consuming and costly. In London, Russian billionaire Eugene Shvidler has waged a court battle over his private jets that were impounded, and Sergei Naumenko has been appealing the detention of his superyacht Phi.

The battle over Amadea began in April 2022, when it was seized in Fiji at the request of the U.S. government, according to the court filings.

Though the U.S. alleges that the yacht is owned by Kerimov, who made his fortune in mining, attorneys for Eduard Khudainatov, an ex-Rosneft CEO who has not been sanctioned, say he owns the yacht, and have sought to take back possession of the vessel.

In court filings, Khudainatov's attorneys have objected to the U.S. government's efforts to sell the yacht, saying a rushed sale could lead to a distressed sale price and that the maintenance costs are minor relative to the potential sale value.

Khudainatov's attorneys refuse to pay the ongoing maintenance costs as long as the government pursues a sale and forfeiture. However, they say their client will reimburse the U.S. government for the more than $20 million already spent to maintain the yacht if it's returned to its proper owner.

In court papers, the government says Kerimov disguised his ownership of Amadea through a series of shell companies and other owners. They say emails between crew members show Kerimov "was the beneficial owner of the yacht, irrespective of the titleholder of the vessel."

The emails show that Kerimov and his family ordered several interior improvements of the yacht, including a new pizza oven and spa, and that between 2021 and 2022, when the boat was seized, "there were no guest trips on the Amadea that did not include either Kerimov or his family members," according to the court filings.

The government also says Kerimov has been trying to sell Amadea for years, so a sale would be in keeping with his intent.

"This is not a situation in which a court would be ordering sale of a precious heirloom that a claimant desperately wishes to keep for sentimental reasons," the government said in filings.

Even if Amadea were sold quickly, the proceeds wouldn't automatically go to the government. Under law, the money would be held while Khudainatov and the government continue their battle in court over the ownership and forfeiture. Don't miss these stories from CNBC PRO:

• Tiara’s New 54-Foot Yacht Has a Deck That Transforms Right in Front of You

The EX54 has a modular design that allows owners to reconfigure the yacht's back end for different purposes. We step on board.

Tiara Yachts is a U.S. builder that values adventure as a key piece of its DNA. I’ve done trips on board a number of their boats that were focused on fishing and diving. Those models were built for fun—small and sporty with a wind-in-your-hair vibe.

The next model down is the new EX54, which debuted at last month’s Miami show. With a length that is six feet smaller, this boat is just as creative with yacht-y accoutrements, along with attention to detail that cements Tiara’s next-generation ambitions. I had a chance to step aboard to see the similarities with the EX60.

The EX54’s’s cockpit will most likely lure many owners away from similar-sized competitors, thanks to its customizability. It comes in three setups that include a social version with two settees facing one another, an adventure configuration that loses the rear settee to make room for dive tanks and scuba gear, or a “glass-patio” design with modular ottomans.

The boat in Miami had the double settee which, coupled with mezzanine seating a few steps up and forward, gave this boat the feel of a larger motoryacht, in line with the trend of maximizing the exterior space that is currently in vogue in the superyacht world. The mezzanine seating featured a flip-down teak bar to port with a flip-up window with Australian undertones. I found it a bit odd that the bar was not adjacent to the amidships galley for easier service.

The EX54’s cabin featured two Tiara hallmarks: high-level woodwork and a focus on ergonomics. The teak across the main deck was richly grained, with snug joinery. Handholds were common as well, but discreetly embedded in structures like a dining table and a countertop so as not to dim the yacht’s aesthetic appeal.

Other nods to onboard comfort can be found down in the full-beam master amidships that is remarkably roomy for a boat this size, a trait that extended to the head where the shower had 6-feet, 8-inches of headroom and enough shoulder space for just about anyone, short of NBA stature, to fit comfortably.

The boat is powered by twin Volvo Penta IPS2 950s that is paired with a glass cockpit by Garmin. The joystick control gives the driver excellent slow-speed maneuverability and high-speed handling as well as low noise. In speed tests, the boat reached a top end of 38.7 mph, with a friendly cruise of 30.6 mph that delivered a 334-mile range.

In the end, what you’re getting is a yacht with Tiara’s trademark DNA for adventure and seaworthiness in a package that is decidedly more luxe. It’s a combination that that should be appealing, both to Tiara owners looking to move up, and to owners of foreign-built vessels that may soon come around to the rising tide of American build quality.
