NUVOLARI LENARD 52 PLUS

Mengi Yay NL 52 Plus: The 2027 Nuvolari Lenard Masterpiece

The Mengi Yay NL 52 Plus (Project NB114) is a 52.6-meter flagship of the "NL Plus" capsule collection. It represents a high-profile collaboration between the Turkish shipyard Mengi Yay, the legendary Italian design duo Nuvolari Lenard, and Van Oossanen Naval Architects.

Designed to maximize luxury within a 499 GT volume, it offers the amenities and "big boat" feel of a much larger vessel while avoiding the regulatory complexities of the 500+ GT category.

1. Exterior & Deck Innovations

The exterior is characterized by a sleek, modern profile that emphasizes "essential luxury" and a seamless connection to the waterline.

• The Beach Club: A massive aft area featuring hydraulic fold-down platforms that expand the deck space directly over the water. It includes an integrated custom pool at the stern.

• Foredeck Cinema: The forward lounge is multifunctional; by day it is a private sunbathing area, and by night it transforms into an open-air cinema with a pop-up screen.

• Massive Sundeck: One of the largest in its class, featuring a heated spa pool (Jacuzzi), a fire pit, a full bar, and versatile areas for dining and lounging.

• Tender Storage: Unusually for this size, it features a full-beam tender garage forward, capable of housing a 7-meter main tender, a crew tender, and various water toys, keeping the aft decks clear for guest use.

2. Interior & Accommodations

The interiors, also by Nuvolari Lenard, focus on a "Mediterranean lifestyle" with high-end sustainable materials and expansive glass for natural light.

• Owner’s Suite: Located on the main deck, this full-beam sanctuary includes a private study, a dressing room, and a unique slide-out balcony that the owner can operate without crew assistance.

• Guest Suites: Four additional cabins on the lower deck—two VIPs and two doubles/twins—accommodating a total of 10 guests.

• Wellness Center: Below the main beach club sits a dedicated wellness zone equipped with a sauna, gym/fitness area, and a relaxation lounge.

• Crew: Accommodations for 9 crew members across 5 cabins ensure a high service-to-guest ratio.
