Each year, the MYBA Charter Show marks the start of the Mediterranean yachting season, showcasing some of the most coveted yachts on the charter market to leading charter professionals. The 2026 edition returns to its birthplace at Portosole Marina in Sanremo, Italy, where the show launched 36 years ago.

Nicknamed the City of Flowers, Sanremo offers a picturesque setting for industry professionals to network and prepare for the busy charter season, and the event is embracing a floral theme in tribute to its host city.

The 37.1-metre Numarine explorer yacht Evelyn P has been sold with Scott LaCroix and Bruce Schattenburg of Denison Yachting representing the seller, and Eric Pearson of IYC introducing the buyer. Evelyn P was delivered in 2022 as the third unit from the Turkish yard's 37 XP series, constructed in steel and fibreglass to a design by Can Yalman, with naval architecture by Umberto Tagliavini. Inside, the full displacement motor yacht is host to a Todd Anthony Design interior, said by her broker to offer that of a "spa-like ambience". According to BOATPro, Evelyn P's construction began under speculation in 2021, yet she was soon sold to an American owner before hitting the water. She has been meticulously maintained since her launch, undergoing recent works including the completion of her RINA annual class survey and interior modifications.
Forget basic spa menus, today's superyachts are trading out the traditional for immersive, future-forward wellness obsessions. Wellness onboard superyachts once meant a massage table tucked away on the lower deck, a few yoga mats for use or a treadmill out of sight, but today, it has evolved into much more – it is now a holistic and highly personalized experience that takes up dedicated space. As the broader global wellness tourism sector surges and luxury travel takes on a rising health-conscious spin, the yachting world is quickly responding with new levels of innovation while redefining what wellness means on board.
Behind every custom superyacht lies a feat of engineering. Take the 164-foot Alamshar, owned by the late Aga Khan, which smashed speed records with its triple gas turbines; or the slinky, silver Savannah, a Feadship build that holds the title of the world’s first hybrid superyacht. These record-breaking builds are, by their nature, widely reported. But at the highest end of the custom market, you’ll find some truly inspired tech tucked away in the most unexpected places. Here’s a selection of my favorites, from a nightclub fitted with a virtual aquarium to an experience “like no other”, hidden deep in a superyacht’s engine room…
The 49.1m CARTE BLANCHE is a standout example of Christensen craftsmanship, combining the shipyard’s proven construction capabilities with elegant styling and exceptional onboard comfort. Built in 2009 and refitted in 2023, the 499GT motor yacht is now for sale with IYC, with one particularly notable upgrade: a comprehensive engine rebuild that effectively delivers zero-hour power plants for her next owner.
