Tankoa's third S501 hull nears completion following lockdown

Following their announcement of recommencing production in Italy, Tankoa have announced that their third unit of the S501 is nearing completion.

As new Italian legislation came in to place, allowing manufacturing and production companies to resume work following the coronavirus lockdown, Tankoa have wasted no time in picking up where they left off.

Constructed under speculation, the third hull of the Tankoa S501 was sold in March 2020, amid the COVID-19 pandemic.

Following the successful deliveries of hulls one and two, motor yacht BINTADOR and motor yacht VERTIGE, the third unit is reported to feature a similar layout to the sister ships.

Featuring design collaborations from Francesco Paszkowski and Casadio Miami for the interiors, the first indications see an eyecatching black hull and metallic grey superstructure.

Aside from the general concept being the same as the previous Tankoa S501 yachts for sale, the Italian shipyard state there are two main differences onboard the in-build model. 

The first difference being that the entire main deck is to be exclusively a large lounging area for the new owners and their guests. The other difference concerning the forward main deck master which boasts its own private lounge that can be converted in to an additional ensuite cabin. 

With construction at more than 75% complete, we’re making up for lost time and looking at delivery by the end of the year to allow the owner to use it in the Caribbean.
