Jubilee, built by Oceanco to
the Passenger Yacht Code, is
not only the yard’s larg-
est yacht at 361 feet (110
meters) but to date is also
the largest yacht built in the
Netherlands. She’s the most
beautiful yacht we have seen
in a long time. The yacht’s
superstructure dominates her
profile, a combination that
made her a standout during
her debut at the Monaco
Yacht Show. Ostensibly, we
should see six decks within
the blue horizontal lines when
gazing at her superstructure
side-on, yet designer Igor
Lobanov designed a couple
of illusory decks to make the
yacht appear less bulky. Built
for a Middle Eastern client,
her opulent interior by Sam
Sorgiovanni is truly fit for a
king. builtbyoceanco.comRUNNERS-UP:

The definition of a family boat might begin with
something as simple as a 20-foot bowrider. The
definition of an extended-family boat might include
a bit more space and a few more creature comforts.
In your wildest imagination, the definition of a two-
owner, extended-family boat might look like the
Amels Limited Editions 272 Here Comes the Sun.
Her owners are friends and longtime yacht part-
ners who hail from separate continents. Both now
have grandchildren and wanted a bigger, lifestyle-
focused boat. This yacht, which could have ended
up as a mishmash of disparate tastes, instead is a
sublimely elegant example of design and outfitting
from Tim Heywood (exterior) and Winch Design
(interior). amels-holland.com
