Pride Mega Yachts from China delivered the 88.5 metre long eye-catcher "Illusion Plus" with a passe-partout style hull.

The unusual white edge around the blue-grey hull is a design trick by Rainsford Saunders, responsible for the entire exterior. They designed the hull lines with the support of Azure Naval Architects. Sinot Exclusive Yacht Design styled the interior, which was realised by Greenline Yacht Interiors from Dubai. "Illusion Plus" has a diesel-electric propulsion package based on two Rolls-Royce gensets with 2225 kilowatts each, which accelerate the displacer to a maximum of 17 knots. At a cruising speed of 15 knots, the six-decker has a range of 5,000 nautical miles. A dynamic positioning system enables the owner to remain in sensitive ecosystems without having to drop anchor. Three tenders, numerous toys and the helicopter land on the bow are parked in the lazarette. Five guest flats, two VIP suites and one master suite accommodate 16 guests, who are looked after by 25 crew members. The yacht has a four-by-five metre pool aft and a pool on the sundeck. Brokerage house Y.CO lists "Illusion Plus" for 125 million euros and is also showing her at the Monaco Yacht Show.
