Design & Construction

Designed around a displacement ice-class steel hull and an aluminum superstructure she features a 14.5m (47.5ft) beam and a 4.09m (13.4ft) draft. The yacht has an internal volume of 2,998 GT (Gross Tonnes).  Tranquility features a fully certified helipad, complying with the regulations adapted for the PYC standard.

Construction started in early 2010 with the keel laid under the project name 'PA164'. Launched in October 2013 the yacht undertook sea trials over the following months, before delivery to her owners in June 2014.

Exterior Design

 Extending across five decks, Tranquility provides numerous amenities including two touch-and-go helipads, a spa and wellness area, and a 20-square-meter swimming pool.

The exterior styling of the yacht Tranquility embodies a stylish and clean design, a result of the collaborative expertise of Oceanco and Winch Design. The dark blue hull features a deeply raked bow, supported by clean, robust lines extending seamlessly from stern to bow. A subtle arch connects the aft of the lower deck to the white superstructure, supporting the main deck and introducing a sleek flow of energy upward, adding to the yacht's overall sense of elegance and dynamism.

The expansive teak decks of Tranquility showcase comfortable deck furniture, marrying style with functionality. Nautical stripes against teak provide a timeless touch, enhancing the overall maritime aesthetic. Guests can relax amidst subtle Eastern influences from lanterns, creating a tranquil atmosphere. Outdoor sofas, styled in cream with a striking dark blue textured trim, are supported by bamboo, harmonizing with the perforated table tops of the occasional tables. The helipad can easily be converted into a further lounging area.

Tranquility's main deck aft features a spacious jacuzzi pool, offering guests a relaxing environment with steamer-style lounging chairs and a convenient bar. Striking black supporting towers at each corner of the deck canopies create a stylish contrast against the white superstructure, further accentuated by the teak treads of the floating staircases.

Designed for versatility, the beach club area can be expanded with foldout platforms at the water's edge. Here, guests can unwind with onboard massage therapy or maintain their fitness using the gym equipment. The custom tenders are easily launched through side access.

The exterior styling of the quarter-deck introduces three parallel lines of curved steel, providing a distinct contrast against the superstructure and connecting to the curved steel supports. A double staircase from the lower deck ensures guests a comfortable descent to the transom area and beach club.

The communication and navigation tower on the upper deck stands out as a powerful and prominent feature.

Interior Design

Crafted by Winch Design, Tranquility's interior is a testament to detail and inspiration drawn from Asia. The use of wenge, gold leaf, bamboo, and marble evokes a sophisticated aesthetic. Textured walls create a neutral backdrop, complemented by cream and other neutral tones introduced through plush furnishings, strategically offset with ebony and dark wood to achieve a harmonious contrast. The lighting, subtle yet purposeful, features occasional ornamentation, showcasing the Winch team's commitment to intricate detailing. Handmade carpets with intricate inlays add an extra dimension to the overall style of the interior.

In the cabins, the design blends highly polished dark wood, adding highlights to the pale neutral tones on walls and ceilings. Wooden floors serve as a sophisticated canvas, allowing the introduction of vibrant color through handcrafted rugs. The master suite spans more than half of the upper deck and includes a private study, a walk-in dressing area, and a stateroom bathroom complete with a crafted walnut bathtub, and delicate flower styling of Eastern influence. 

Within one of the salon areas, a distinctive oceanic blue becomes the signature palette, complemented by rustic-style wooden floors and the juxtaposition of stone against cleverly incorporated parquet wall panels. A transparent baby grand piano sets the stage for convivial evenings, where guests can unwind in art deco-style Harper chairs. These chairs feature circular intricate hues of blue against a backdrop of pale cream, adding a touch of elegance to the relaxing ambiance.

In the upper deck salon, a large semi-circular off-white sofa adorned with coral-motif cushions creates an inviting atmosphere. A deep red is used as a feature color here, appearing in soft cushions on the chairs and a stylish lamp. The coral motif extends into the dining area aft, gracing chairs around a table nestled within a circular, glass-enclosed space that provides extraordinary panoramic views. Accommodating ten guests, the dining table sets the stage for elegant gatherings. Above, a remarkable chandelier, reminiscent of Murano glass, bathes the area in a soft turquoise tone, perfectly complementing the natural light filtering in from the seascape.  A charming fish design is prominent on the walls and the glass dividing wall between the salon and dining area, whilst within the circular dining area, murals featuring flamingoes and palms are delicately carved into panels. 

Smaller, intimate dining areas showcase a blend of Japanese aesthetics, combining bamboo and dark wood, accentuated by the introduction of textured elements like stone and wood. In a more formal dining space, 12 guests gather around a striking dark wooden table beneath an understated black lighting feature, providing support for candlelight, complemented by a ceiling adorned with cream and dark wood panels. The double doors add a touch of Eastern elegance, featuring a circular embellishment with black marble used in panels for the floor that enhances the overall sophisticated ambiance. Muslin window drapes feature a delicate bamboo outline. 

Guest areas are accessible through striking gloss white corridors; here, an open staircase with floating glass treads is supported by an elegantly curved steel structure. The strategic use of wood in handrails and occasional artwork introduces warmth and color, effectively offsetting the stark white surroundings.

Guests navigate the yacht via a circular glass elevator connecting all decks. A central staircase, enveloping the elevator, features dominant white columns against a dark backdrop, creating a visually appealing and striking contrast. Warmth is introduced through a wooden handrail supported by steel, while the dark heavily veined marble floor enhances the overall sophisticated aesthetic.

Accommodation

As a yacht meeting the Passenger Yacht Code, the yacht can legally accommodate up to 26 guests with 28 crew members. However, Tranquility is commercially approved to sleep up to 22 guests on charter. 

The expansive owner's suite dominates over half of the upper deck's interior space. This luxurious suite includes a private study, a walk-in dressing room, and an exceptional bathroom featuring twin Italian showers and an impressive free-standing walnut bathtub. The suite's forward and elevated position provides breathtaking views and includes a private jacuzzi terrace with sun loungers and direct access to the bow.

The VIP stateroom is situated on the bridge deck, and occupies the entire level. This exclusive cabin features stunning 180-degree panoramic views through floor-to-ceiling windows and direct access to the aft deck and other exterior spaces. Two additional VIP suites are located on the main deck, each with private balconies.

The standard interior configuration allows for the accommodation of 18 guests, which can be expanded to 22 with the use of convertible cabins. Adhering to the PYC, Tranquility is licensed to cruise with 26 guests sleeping on board. The yacht operates with a crew of 31, ensuring an excellent crew-to-guest ratio for the highest levels of service and hospitality.
