According to the yard, Akula's official launch ceremony and delivery to the owner will take place early this summer 

The dark grey “shark” shade of the hull looks more aggressive and makes the yacht stand out among other T52 models. Like other T52s, Akula’s exterior was created by Francesco Paszkowski Design, and the interior is owed to Enrico Gobbi and his Team for Design.

Similarly to her recently launched sister, the new yacht boasts a number of innovative features, but at the same time preserves the key characteristics of the range: a three-level beach club and a skylounge on the upper deck, which can be open on three sides thanks to the floor-to-ceiling windows that ensure constant contact with the sea.

At the owner’s request, the aft tender garage has been replaced with a gym area, while the jet skis and the 5.5-metre tender are now located forward. 

“We are now stepping into the bustling season of deliveries,” comments Baglietto's CCO Fabio Ermetto. “This year, as many as 4 T52 vessels and 2 yachts in the DOM133 series will be hitting the water. And, although each yacht is part of a specific line, she is in fact truly one in her kind and the outcome of a long journey made side by side with the Owner. The launch is the culmination of this process”.

We have previously reported on the launch of the second, and the sale of the ninth Baglietto T52 hull – one of the most successful and popular models from the Italian shipyard.
