Italian studio Hydro Tec has unveiled a new, 80-metre concept yacht named Valiant. This vessel pays homage to the British battleship that served valiantly in both World War I and World War II. The exterior design of Valiant features militaristic elements harmonized with sleek, automotive-inspired lines. A standout feature is the all-seasons beach club, seamlessly connected to guest areas and equipped with an infinity pool and spa including a sauna.
Accommodation on board includes a forward-facing owner's cabin, complete with a fireplace, lounge seating, and a private outdoor area. This luxurious space is accessible via sliding glass doors on both port and starboard sides, and includes sun loungers, sofa seating, and a waterfall Jacuzzi. The interiors of Valiant blend Japanese and Scandinavian design aesthetics, with renderings showcasing the use of light woods, marble accents, and staircases adorned with crystal and gold detailing.
The dining area is another noteworthy feature, positioned laterally across the main saloon. It includes an open kitchen, curved windows, and a balcony designed for impromptu outdoor dining. Hydro Tec is also responsible for the exterior design of Cantiere delle Marche's new flagship series, the Flexplorer 165, with the first two hulls already sold to buyers in Europe and the US.
Additionally, the studio recently shared a 48-metre concept with BOAT International called Sagasu, which is described as embodying all the characteristics of an explorer yacht within a 500GT package.
