S7

S7 Part of Tansu's Mothership Series and a triple award-winner, S7 has the kind of pedigree that shows up in the details rather than the brochure. Delivered in 2016 by the Turkish yard, she pairs Dutch engineering at her core with a light, contemporary beach-house feel — a yacht built around the idea that time on board should feel unhurried. The technical brief was quiet comfort. Electric stabilisers and thrusters, together with a purpose-engineered hydraulic system, keep noise and vibration noticeably low, whether at anchor for the afternoon or under way between islands. It is the sort of refinement you notice mostly by its absence: no hum through the deck, no need to raise your voice at dinner. Her exterior is where S7 makes her case most convincingly. The long, open aft deck — explorer DNA, plainly stated — is genuinely usable space rather than styling: room to lay out towels, launch toys, train, or simply leave it empty. The sundeck is arranged around a central bar with panoramic views, a retractable roof for shade on demand, and generous sun pads. On the main deck, large mirrored tables and shaded seating make al fresco dining the default rather than the occasion. A netted sea pool takes care of the slower hours. Inside, the register stays deliberately simple. The main saloon is bright and open, framed by expansive windows that keep the horizon in view from anywhere in the room, with a full dining table and a wine fridge forward — a space that works equally well for a long lunch or a quiet evening. The crew are as much a part of the offering as the hardware. The kitesurfing programme in particular is run by hands who know what they are doing, and they will take a complete beginner through their first session or push an experienced rider further, depending on what the week calls for. The toy locker is stocked in pairs: two Sea-Doo Spark Trixx jet skis, two Fliteboards, two Seabob F5 S, alongside a full complement of quality kitesurfing kit.
