The Bilgin 263 series represents a pinnacle in luxury yacht design, with each of its three 80-meter vessels—Tatiana, Leona, and Al Reem—exemplifying a harmonious blend of innovative engineering and opulent aesthetics. Developed in collaboration with Unique Yacht Design for naval architecture and exterior styling, and H2 Yacht Design for interiors, this series showcases Bilgin Yachts’ commitment to excellence.
Tatiana, the inaugural yacht of the series, was delivered in 2021. She features a sleek and contemporary profile, with sharp exterior lines and stylish interior areas offering a modern feeling. The extensive use of a contrasting combination of rich Macassar ebony, eucalyptus, and marble creates a strong identity and luxurious ambiance throughout the yacht. Tatiana’s layout includes generous living areas, a spacious spa, and a beach club on the aft deck, providing ample space for relaxation and entertainment.
Leona, the second yacht in the series, was launched in October 2022. While maintaining the series’ signature sleek lines, Leona introduces design modifications that enhance her spaciousness and luxury. The main deck’s original four-guest-cabin layout has been reconfigured into two generous VIP cabins, each equipped with his and her dressing rooms and bathrooms. The lower deck now features two cabins instead of three, allowing for additional amenities such as a movie theater, gym, and sauna. The owner’s deck has been extended aft, providing a palatial suite with a private lounge area and direct access to an exterior pool.
Al Reem is the final yacht of the trilogy. This vessel boasts a 20% larger volume than her predecessors, offering enhanced comfort and autonomy at sea. Notable features include an optimized hull and decks, a new ventilation system, and increased generator capacity. The owner’s deck is situated above the main deck for added privacy, and a glass elevator connects all decks, ensuring seamless accessibility. The elongated upper deck provides extra covered area at the stern, while the swimming pool has been refined for a more intimate setting.
Each yacht in the Bilgin 263 series is powered by twin 2,560 kW engines, achieving a top speed of 19 knots. At a cruising speed of 12 knots, they maintain a fuel consumption of approximately 280 liters per hour, reflecting a balance between performance and efficiency. The series’ design philosophy emphasizes a sleek and sexy profile while avoiding high-dosage design clichés, resulting in a trendsetting aesthetic among steel-aluminum superyachts.
The Bilgin 263 series stands as a testament to Bilgin Yachts’ dedication to crafting vessels that offer unparalleled luxury, innovative design, and exceptional performance on the open seas.
