Wherever Silver Fast cruises, be it in Europe, the Middle East, the Americas or Asia, all those who experience this extraordinary vessel will be impressed by her performance and by the understated but luxurious contemporary interior styling of her impeccably curated living spaces. Vain Interiors selected a bespoke range of refined elements, such as staircases clad in silk and grey stitched leather, anigre panelling and metallic-painted walls, creating an overall sense of harmonious calm. There is accommodation for 18 guests and 18 crew on Silver Fast, arranged over three decks. The main deck boasts three double VIP guest cabins, along with a salon, media lounge, galley and a winter garden aft, with wraparound retractable glass panels providing the option for open air dining or air- conditioned comfort. The lucky owners of Silver Fast will enjoy a private apartment on the upper deck with a lavish stateroom offering 180-degree views, his and hers bathrooms, a study, lounge, dining area and a secluded outdoor deck area aft. Up on the sun deck guests can relax at the bar or cool off in the glass- fronted eight person Jacuzzi while enjoying panoramic views or lounge around watching movies on funky Paola Lenti seating. The lower deck houses crew quarters and four large en suite guest cabins, plus two cabins for staff. The aft area is dedicated to the aforementioned expansive sea level beach club and spa area with the massage room, gym, sauna, steam room and beauty salon. When guests can tear themselves away from this incredible seafaring haven, the yacht’s two 7.4 metre custom tenders, stowed in a forward section of the hull with lifting gullwings, can whisk you to land. Or if speed is of the essence, then the best option is by helicopter. Silver Fast’s touch-and-go helipad can accommodate an AgustaWestland AW109 or a Eurocopter EC135. Silver Fast is powered by twin MTU 16V Series 4000 engines, and her draught of just 2.5 metres allows her to cruise easily in shallow areas that many yachts of this size can’t access, making her ideal for the Gulf, Maldives, South Pacific and Bahamas. This spectacular yacht can go anywhere in eye- catching style and redefines superyachting for the modern era while satisfying that ancient yearning for the sea.
