Party in front of the Genoa shipyard: at Tankoa, build number two of the S501 EVO series glides into the sea. With an interior by star designer Francesco Paszkowski.

"Rilassata" is following in big footsteps and is set to become the new star of the series. The 50-metre superyacht is set to continue the success of the S501 line, which was relaunched last year and finally made its debut with "Grey" at the 2023 Monaco Yacht Show. "Rilassata" is thus also the second unit in the revised S501 EVO range, which scores with improved technical details and offers guests significantly more amenities, including an open-plan saloon and dining area with XL windows, an extended flydeck and larger outdoor areas for the feeling of being close to the sea wherever you are.

Superyacht with gym and playroom

No matter where it appears, "Rilassata" will stand out. The hull and superstructure - both made of aluminium - gleam in a striking "beach beige" paint finish, while the interior was designed by Francesco Paszkowski, who also works for other major names such as Heesen and Benetti. Here he worked together with Margherita Casprini. Compared to its predecessor "Grey", the interiors of the new addition are divided differently: On "Rilassata", the owner's cabin is located on the upper deck, while the captain retreats to his realm on the main deck. On this level, there is also a fully equipped gym and a games room with an opening balcony. Guests sleep on the lower deck in a total of four cabins, each with its own bathroom.

"The S501 series has proven to be extremely popular with our international customers," says Giuseppe Mazza, Sales Manager at Tankoa. "This success is largely due to our flexibility in fulfilling customer wishes. Even for a standard model, which is reflected in the unusual interior design." In July, the French owners will proudly take delivery of their "Rilassata" and immediately set off on their summer cruise through the Mediterranean.

Uske was born just outside Volkswagen in 1970 and tested various small boats with sails through her boyfriend (now husband 😊) on a quarry pond. Her studies in Kiel took her to the Baltic Sea with boats of all kinds and eventually to a regatta from Hong Kong to Mauritius via the Academic Sailing Club. Her teacher training ended at the Burda School of Journalism in Munich instead of in the classroom and finally at Boote Exclusiv. After a long break and various stories about house building, she returned to Delius Klasing and has been filling the magazine with long stories about large ships ever since. A family-owned H-boat was quickly sold again as the mother realized that sailing with two small children was neither relaxing nor fun.
