Designed to fulfill her owner’s dreams of world exploration, Akula is equipped with an ultra-efficient diesel-electric propulsion system that burns through less fuel to reduce the impact on the environment, according to Rossinavi.

“The key concept of this project is that it is a boat for cruising,” the yard’s chief operating officer, Federico Rossi said in a statement. “With the owner’s input, we were able to best express the know-how and skills we have gained through decades of experience.”

With a beam of 37 feet, Akula offers an interior volume of 1,215 GT. The living quarters were designed by FM Architettura and have been described by Rossinavi as “cozy yet elegant.”

“I was very lucky to meet this owner, who guided and empowered the entire team involved in the creation of this yacht,” FM Architettura founder Francesca Muzio said in a statement. “A real ship, a combination of elements that led to an original result: a strong but elegant vessel that fits perfectly with our view of modern yachting.”

The layout has been outfitted to support “marine research activities and philanthropic projects.” In the bow, for instance, there is a sprawling observation lounge where seafarers can take in views of the local surroundings. The sundeck has also been turned into a technical area with all the requisite gear for expeditions. To top it off, the garage can house a pair of custom 30-foot tenders, an array of diving gear, and two 20-foot containers that can double as transportable science labs.

Rossinavi Launches First Expedition Yacht M/Y AKULA

By George Bains

As the demand for exploration and adventure on the water remains steadfast among modern owners, Italian shipyard Rossinavi has launched its first Expedition yacht.

59-metre M/Y Akula was launched from the Rossinavi facilities in Pisa, marking the renowned Italian builder’s first Expedition yacht project. Akula features an exterior profile penned by gian Paolo Nari, with interior design by Ancona-based studio FM Architettura.

Akula is an Ice Class yacht, powered by diesel-electric propulsion and fitted with dynamic positioning, providing a perfect platform to fulfil her Owner’s dream of world exploration. ACP Surveyors represent the Owner while also acting as the Owner’s Project Managers.

“The key concept of this project is that it is a boat for cruising,” explains Rossinavi COO, Federico Rossi. “With the Owner’s input, we were able to best express the know-how and skills we have gained through decades of experience.”

The Owner has been thoroughly involved in the entire concept and development process, working alongside Rossinavi and the design teams to bring Akula to life.

Akula is destined to navigate over long distances while providing her Owner and guests with a luxury base for adventures. Her sturdy hull facilitates such remote cruising in absolute safety, while the yacht meets modern standards of eco-sustainability while still having the capability to comfortably travel across long distances in safety.

“In order to fulfil the Owners’ brief, great importance has been given to efficiency and ocean-going capabilities,” explains Andrea Carlevaris, Founder and CEO of ACP Surveyors. “This sturdy fully custom vessel is able to venture in hot and cold climates in remote areas of the world for a long period of time with optimised fuel consumption and low impact on the environment.”

The Owner has also requested that the vessel be built to support marine research activities and philanthropic projects. To cater to this vision, a large open area has been crafted to stow a variety of accessories, including two custom 9-metre tenders and various diving equipment. Akula can also bel loaded with two 20-foot containers to function as scientific laboratories.

The forward manoeuvring station has been relocated below deck to leave the entire overdeck free as an open observation deck. The sundeck has been configured as a technical area, storing the emergency generator, while the interior design provides a cozy yet elegant atmosphere for guests to feel at home.

“I was very lucky to meet this Owner, who guided and empowered the entire team involved in the creation of this yacht,” says Francesca Muzio, Founder of FM Architettura. “A real ship, a combination of elements that led to an original result: a strong but elegant vessel that fits perfectly with our view of modern yachting.”

We look forward to seeing Rossinavi ’s first Expedition yacht on the waters, and hearing more about her adventures and research work in the future.

"With the Owner’s input, we were able to best express the know-how and skills we have gained through decades of experience." Federico Rossi - COO, Rossinavi

59m Amels explorer yacht Akula sold

The 59 metre motor yacht Akula , listed for sale by Alex Busher at Edmiston & Company , has been sold with the buyer introduced by Serafeim Papadopoulos of SSH Maritime .

Akula was built in steel by Dutch yard Amels and delivered in 1974 as a pilot vessel for the Dutch Navy. She was converted into a superyacht by Vosper Thornycroft in England in 1999 under the supervision of BMT Nigel Gee , at which time a helicopter deck and hangar were also added. A further exterior and interior refit took place at La Ciotat during 2008, with a complete engine overhaul in 2010.

Three Deutz 600hp diesel electric engines connected to a single screw propeller give Akula a cruising speed of 10 knots and her rugged build quality makes her capable of worldwide cruising. In addition, she is equipped with Vosper stabilizers that assist rough weather helicopter operations allowing comfortable landings in up to Force 6 weather conditions.

She accommodates 10 guests in five staterooms plus 17 crew. Guest accommodation layout consists of a master suite, two large double staterooms and two twins, all with en suite bathroom facilities.

Akula was asking $10,950,000.

Akula at a Glance

Small Ship. Great Adventure.

There’s a saying about small packages. And for all her 24 metres, Akula promises great adventure. A globetrotting range of 6000nm, a suite of stabilisers and extensive storage give her the autonomy and seaworthiness to cruise anywhere in the world, while her tardis-like onboard spaces accommodate 8 guests, 4 crew and a host of water toys with ease. All this puts Akula in adventure yacht territory normally reserved for much larger vessels.

Strange Glow Over Moscow Skies Triggers Panic as Explosions Reported

B right flashes lit up the night sky in southern Moscow in the early hours of Thursday morning, new footage appears to show, following reports of an explosion at an electrical substation on the outskirts of the city.

Video snippets circulating on Russian-language Telegram channels show a series of flashes on the horizon of a cloudy night sky, momentarily turning the sky a number of different colors. In a clip shared by Russian outlet MSK1.ru, smoke can be seen rising from a building during the flashes lighting up the scene.

Newsweek was unable to independently verify the details of the video clips, including when and where it was filmed. The Russian Ministry of Emergency situations has been contacted via email.

Several Russian Telegram accounts said early on Thursday that residents of southern Moscow reported an explosion and a fire breaking out at an electrical substation in the Leninsky district, southeast of central Moscow.

Local authorities in the Leninsky district told Russian outlet RBC that the explosion had happened in the village of Molokovo. "All vital facilities are operating as normal," Leninsky district officials told the outlet.

The incident at the substation in Molokovo took place just before 2 a.m. local time, MSK1.ru reported.

Messages published by the ASTRA Telegram account, run by independent Russian journalists, appear to show residents close to the substation panicking as they question the bright flashes in the sky. One local resident describes seeing the bright light before losing access to electricity, with another calling the incident a "nightmare."

More than 10 villages and towns in the southeast of Moscow lost access to electricity, the ASTRA Telegram account also reported. The town of Lytkarino to the southeast of Moscow, lost electricity, wrote the eastern European-based independent outlet, Meduza.

Outages were reported in the southern Domodedovo area of the city, according to another Russian outlet, as well as power failures in western Moscow. Electricity was then restored to the areas, the Strana.ua outlet reported.

The cause of the reported explosion is not known. A Telegram account aggregating news for the Lytkarino area described the incident as "an ordinary accident at a substation."

The MSK1.ru outlet quoted a local resident who speculated that a drone may have been responsible for the explosion, but no other Russian source reported this as a possible cause.

Ukraine has repeatedly targeted Moscow with long-range aerial drones in recent months, including a dramatic wave of strikes in late May.

On Sunday, Moscow Mayor Sergei Sobyanin said the region's air defense systems had intercepted an aerial drone over the city of Elektrostal, to the east of Moscow. No damage or casualties were reported, he said.

The previous day, Russian air defenses detected and shot down another drone flying over the Bogorodsky district, northeast of central Moscow, Sobyanin said.

There is currently no evidence that an aerial drone was responsible for the reported overnight explosion at the electrical substation in southern Moscow.
