New Products for YachtLite


FloorLite – WALK ON LIGHT

YACHTLITE’s brand new product – an inspiration to designers and architects in particular

FloorLites are homogeneous light inlays for teak decks or steps.

The elements are - as with all YACHTLITE products - made of solid, and here very special, acrylic in which the LEDs are safely sealed. These treadable elements, made with a special front surface, are levelly embedded into the flooring and can even be sanded for later refits in one process together with the teak. The element shown here is approximately 30 cm diametere with a height of about 3 cm. FloorLites are available in any form and colour, also with RGB colour change. The cable outlet can be freely selected.

FloorLites are perfect for teak decks, steps and flooring ... ideas are formed as soon as a designer sees and experiences the product!

Impressive Lighting Concepts
YACHTLITE deliveries reach New Zealand


2010 is again a very dynamic year for YACHTLITE. Many well-known shipyards and customers continue to rely on YACHTLITE’s expertise. The proof lies in the ever-increasing number of projects and customers.

The result is a very considerable number of spectacular deliveries in 2010.  YACHTLITE is understandably proud of its major projects for Lürssen (Radiant, Solemates, „Josie“), Kröger Werft (Phoenix², „Hermitage“), Abeking&Rasmussen with „Titan“, Amels (BelAbri, Addiction), Al Seer Marine (Rabdan, Sarha) and, not the least, for Nobiskrug with „Sycara V“ and „Sapphire“.

Inquiries about new, increasingly extravagant, light solutions confirm that quality supplier YACHTLITE’s expert workmanship has become a constant by all international leading productions. Illuminating, treadable surfaces in flooring and on stairs is the current number one topic.  The response to the new product “FloorLite” has been remarkable.

The most innovative technologies ensure increasingly perfect light representations, top-level manufacturing equipment promises perfect customization. Recently YACHTLITE delivered absolutely spectacular illumination presentations to Overmarine for “RUSH” and, above all, as far away as New Zealand for the much talked about “Big Fish” from Aquos Yachts. YACHTLITE is truly globally present!

“Big Fish” will be making a grand appearance at the FLIBS.

All of Aquiva

The Dubai-based Aquiva Group plans to moor a 170 metre superyacht at Thames Quay on the River Thames to act as a 158-room floating hotel during the London Olympic games.

Its owners hope it will then become one of London’s premier luxury hotels for the 50 years that follow the games.

When completed, the superyacht will have seven decks, sleep more than 300 people and will contain a private members’ club, luxury spa and several restaurants.
The vessel will dwarf the 147m £200m super-yacht Eclipse owned by Chelsea Footbal Club owner Roman Abramovich. It will be 15 metre longer than the Barclays HQ Tower in Canary Wharf is tall and that is the equivalent of one and a half football pitches.

In place of the bridge the engineless Aquiva will feature a presidential suite, although the customary will be present in all their luxurious glory.

Exterior styling will showcase sun decks and spa pools spread across teak decks with stainless steel railings and caprails, while the interior will feature finishes using exotic hardwoods, leather, marble, polished metals and original artwork all in classic superyacht style.

Guests will arrive at the hotel using tenders operating from the West India dockside and will be transported to and from selected Olympic locations in a fleet of Venetian-style water taxis.

Steve Tight of the Aquiva Group said: “We hope to bring a unique experience so visitors to London can enjoy the superyacht lifestyle.  Obviously in the current economic climate there are technical and financial issues to iron out but the plan is to get the Aquiva in place for 2012.”

Nevis Island to the Stars


Culture comes to the island of Nevis in many styles and one place to find it celebrity style is at Sunshines Beach Bar on Pinneys Beach.  Now Sunshine has lots of fine attributes, he cooks up and serves a terrific lunch of local fish including a superb amber jack and succulent conch known locally as Lambi.  He is also famous for the walls of his shanty style beach shack, which are festooned with pictures of him embracing guests as diverse as John Travolta, The Duchess of York and George Bush.

There is a healthy sprinkling of pops stars including; John Lennon, Roger Daltry, Beyonce and the rap singer JC.  From the world of film, we spotted Mel Gibson, Michelle Phifer, Jessica Sarah Parker along with Michael Douglas and Catherine Zeta Jones.

None of these of course, are the real reason to visit Sunshine because most people arrive at Sunshine’s looking to get stung by a Killer Bee.  This seemingly innocuous fruit drink is a dangerously addictive rum punch, made up using his own secret ingredients which include passion fruit orange juice, a handsome slug of local rum and the contents of a strange looking plastic water bottle that appears to contain roots and local leaves and grasses steeped in….you’ve guessed it, more rum.
