YPI Closes The Monaco Yacht Show With The Sale Of The Megayacht Red Square

    MONTE CARLO, MONACO, October 03, 2013 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Yachting Partners International (YPI) is definitively the superyacht brokerage company to follow this year. After the recent announcement of signing the 73.6m megayacht for charter PEGASO, YPI opened the Monaco Yacht Show with the sale of IFA CANNES, and now together with DUNYA YACHTS,the company has confirmed, on the last day of the Show, the sale of the 73m megayacht, eagerly-anticipated, RED SQUARE.

RED SQUARE

- Biggest motor yacht ever built in Turkey
- Built to one of the highest ever specifications in Turkey
- Third biggest yacht in Monaco Yacht Show 2013

RED SQUARE: six decks across 73 metres create enormous volume (over 30,000 m2 of space), this volume allows for the luxury of magnificently large guest areas. Six decks that allow for an under-lower deck, so that the crew can operate the yacht without needing to compromise guest areas.

You will find also a bridge deck that has a heli-pad and a third saloon with a glazed roof creating a conservatory, an upper deck with the forward section dedicated entirely to the owner whilst aft, is a cinema/lounge that leads out to a dining terrace.

Outside, on the main deck, is the beach club with an infinity swimming pool and four sets of double-size sofas. The upper and main decks have one of RED SQUARE's most spectacular features: an open gallery mezzanine. Forward on the main deck is a full-beam VIP, two equal doubles and two twin cabins.

RED SQUARE sleeps twelve guests including the owner.

RED SQUARE AT THE MONACO YACHT SHOW 2013

"We have always said: 'expect the unexpected'. Now, after all the visits we have conducted over the last few days in what was an exceptionally busy Monaco Yacht Show, the feedback is telling us overwhelmingly that we have not disappointed in delivering just that...the unexpected. RED SQUARE is our first baby - she is precious to us, and it has been a great pleasure to show her at this year's Monaco Yacht Show. Of course it is amazing to be able to announce her sale in the Show, and she is going to a good owner who I know will enjoy her every bit as much as we have enjoyed making her a reality. A lot of interest has been shown in Dunya over the last few months, and we have a number of projects bubbling away, but for those interested in building their own dream yacht now I would say this: you have seen what we achieved with RED SQUARE, our first ever superyacht...imagine what we can now do with our second."

Sedat Ergun, Owner & CEO of Dunya Yachts

"We are very proud to have been able to work with Dunya and RED SQUARE. Sedat and his team have created an amazing, potentially award-winning yacht for which we are very pleased to have found a new owner. RED SQUARE matches and, in many cases, surpasses the highest quality and finish of any yacht in the world today. She is almost certainly the highest quality yacht of her size ever to come out of Turkey and a credit to the yard and the skilled onsite team from all over the world. Dunya has proved in RED SQUARE that it is a yard to be reckoned with - we wish them every success with their new projects and look forward to selling some more."

Philippe Hetland Brault, CEO of Yachting Partners International (YPI)
