In the spirit of earth day IYC pledges to have more eco-friendly yachts
The IYC Fleet is making significant changes to reduce its impact on the environment. Yacht builders are making commitments to neutralize the industry's ecological footprint. The new technologies that are being adopted in the build process create a significant step in the preservation of the ocean. The new-build additions to the IYC Sales Fleet are environmentally focused, with many having hybrid diesel electric propulsion systems and sustainably sourced materials.
DESERT PEARL is the newest member of the IYC sales fleet that is equipped with the latest technology that combines battery and alternative-fuel propulsion to lower environmental impact. As one of only two 393’ 7” (120m) new build motor yachts available on the global sales market, DESERT PEARL presents a rare and highly sought-after opportunity to acquire a pedigree superyacht in the upper size bracket with full-customisation available. Scheduled to deliver in 2026, DESERT PEARL is an exceptional addition to IYC’s global sales fleet.
SCINTILLA is an exciting part of the IYC sales fleet. With an expected delivery date of 2024, she will be equipped with the latest sustainable technologies and materials, a huge selection of toys, an elegant minimalist interior design, and accommodation for 36 guests. Sustainability and SCINTILLA’s ecological footprint have been at the forefront of the design brief. She will be equipped with the latest technology that combines battery and alternative-fuel propulsion to lower her environmental impact. Her toys were specifically picked to minimize emissions. With a max speed of 20 knots and a cruising speed of 14, she will offer her owner a significant nautical mile range that makes her an ideal choice for worldwide cruising.
MIMER, a serious transatlantic expedition new build, was built with sustainability in mind. At 197’ (60m) in length, the versatile explorer yacht is an Ice Class (ICE-1C) home from home with large panoramic windows, hybrid diesel electric propulsion and silent cruising. During construction, the team has pledged to use only locally sourced suppliers. MIMER accommodates 12 guests in six cabins, including a full-beam owner’s suite with office, private lounge, en suite bathroom with full-sized bath tub and private exterior terrace with Jacuzzi on the forward deck.
