Delivered in 2001, Arriva is a 47.55m classic yacht built by Turkish shipyard Turquoise Yachts. Her naval architecture and exterior design comes from the drawing boards of Taka Yacht Design, while LM Pagano Design is responsible for her interior design.

  • Foredeck holds tenders, jet-skis, crane
  • Elegant Edwardian-style interior
  • Master suite with natural light
  • Upper deck dining and sunbathing areas

Design & Construction

Designed around a full displacement steel hull and an aluminium superstructure she features a 7.15m beam and a 2.4m draft. The yacht is built over 3 decks with an internal volume of 229 GT (Gross Tonnes).

Exterior Design

The exterior design of Arriva is defined by a clipper bow that gives it a distinct and purposeful appearance. The hull is painted a classic white, providing a clean and timeless look. The superstructure, finished in varnished wood, adds a touch of natural elegance and contrasts subtly with the hull. A red boot top line separates the hull from the water, adding a sharp and striking visual element. Below the waterline, the yacht is painted in black, lending it a sleek and polished finish. 

The foredeck is practical, housing two jet-skis, a Nautica 4.3-meter RIB, and a custom-designed wooden tender. These are launched using a 1,500kg-lift crane. The tenders' placement on the foredeck avoids clutter on the aft decks, ensuring a clear and functional outdoor space for guests. Details such as the side-boarding ladder integrated into the starboard bulwarks and the custom stainless steel cradles for lifebelts exhibit careful consideration for both aesthetics and utility.

The main deck aft features an oval dining table that seats ten, with additional seating areas that are shaded by the upper deck overhang. This setup ensures guests enjoy outdoor dining and lounging without interference from crew activities. The fantail, equipped with mooring winches and other essential equipment, is designated as a working area for the crew.

Above, the upper deck offers extensive open space, preferred by the owner for outdoor living rather than a sun lounge. The pilothouse is complemented by practical amenities like a day head and pantry, while the deck area around the funnel includes a shaded dining space and areas for sunbathing.

Superyacht ARRIVA offers an experience from the Golden Age of yachting with all the latest amenities of the present day.

Interior Design

The primary materials employed throughout the yacht's interior include Brazilian mahogany for paneling and crema marfil marble for various surfaces. The woodwork is finished in a plain style that reflects the period, while the marble adds a touch of understated elegance. The craftsmanship is evident in the detailing, which includes custom-made furniture and fixtures that fit seamlessly with the yacht's overall design scheme.

The galley is located to port between the master suite and the main saloon. It is well-equipped to handle all culinary needs, featuring modern appliances discreetly integrated into the classic setting. The layout is functional, ensuring that the crew can work efficiently. Adjacent to the galley are two pantries, designed to facilitate smooth service to the dining areas.

The helm, finished in mahogany and buttoned leather, maintains a traditional look with a spoked wheel and an uncluttered fascia. Modern instruments are carefully positioned to be less overt, preserving the classic appearance. Essential systems like the Ultra-Fog firefighting panel and GMDSS communications equipment are discreetly installed, ensuring they do not detract from the overall aesthetic.

The main saloon is accessible through double doors from the aft deck. It features a selection of loose furniture set against a backdrop of traditional oval-headed windows and mahogany paneling. The space is divided into a lounge and a dining area by two cabinets that incorporate functional elements like air ducting, a bar, a wine cooler, and glassware storage. A sideboard topped with portoro marble complements the decor. This area is designed to offer comfort and style, with custom-made furniture from specialists like Arthur Brett and Sons.

The dining saloon includes a marine oil painting by Turkish artist Diyarbakirli Tahsin, contributing to the yacht's impressive collection of Turkish art. This space is designed to provide a formal dining experience while maintaining the classic Edwardian theme.

Accommodation

Arriva is capable of hosting up to ten guests across five meticulously appointed cabins. The master suite is situated on the main deck and features a king-sized bed, period side tables, a writing desk with a concealed plasma television, and seating areas that offer wide external views. The suite is complemented by an adjoining shower room that includes a washbasin, dressing table, large shower with a seat, and a separate compartment containing the head and bidet.

On the lower deck, there are four further guest cabins. These include two double cabins, one twin-berthed cabin, and one twin-bunked cabin designed for children.

She is also capable of carrying up to nine crew onboard. Located in the bow, the crew area includes a crew mess, four sizable cabins, and well-equipped galley and pantries.
