“Dangerously Beautiful” Superyacht Vision Unveiled in Project Echo for Discerning Owners

ER Yacht Design, a Canadian design firm, has unveiled the renderings of its 61-meter superyacht concept, Project Echo. The studio describes the motor yacht concept as “dangerous beauty” and designed it for Turquoise Yachts in Turkey.

The yacht Project Echo is distinguished by her elongated lines that flow from bow to stern and incorporate flawlessly with her sporty, powerful design. The semi-displacement yacht has distinctively sculpted surfaces around her hull and superstructure, as well as large windows that give her profile a distinct appearance.

The design inspiration behind the long wrapping side windows is the eye of a Tyrannosaurus Rex, with a focus on practicality. She keeps her large and high windows throughout her length to provide unrivalled views for guests.

The expansive and opulent exterior decks of the 899 GT superyacht were designed with entertainment in mind. Her upper deck can accommodate up to 35 guests, and her foldable aft sides can be extended to create a beach club with a 6-meter-long pool.

The stairs leading from the main deck to the upper deck of the Project Echo are constructed around the pool and are not integrated into the superstructure. This means that the steps are thin and visitors can see through them, making them a design element rather than an obstruction.

The interior design of Project Echo’s four platforms is as impressive as her exterior. On the main deck, her expansive saloon and dining area are surrounded by full-height windows that deluge the room with natural light and almost unobstructed views of 300 degrees.

The superyacht Project Echo provides her proprietor with the upper deck for complete privacy and supreme comfort in terms of accommodation. The remaining six staterooms are located on the main deck and feature luxurious full-height windows to provide guests with a genuinely unique experience.

The efficient performance of the Project Echo is a result of her semi-displacement hull, which can be used as a displacement hull with lesser engines and a maximum speed of 17 knots. With a larger engine, the fast displacement hull can attain a top speed of 27 knots.

This is the first collaboration between Turquoise Yachts and ER Yacht Design; the shipyard has described it as “restrained flair, unrestrained performance.” Seven custom-built yachts are presently under construction at Turquoise Yachts, with six of them already sold.
