Tankoa just added another jewel to its dazzling fleet.
The boutique Italian shipyard yard, which specializes in building semi- and full-custom superyachts, just launched a new, entirely bespoke Tankoa T580. Christened Diamond Binta, the newcomer is the first 190-footer in the Tankoa fleet and showcases a sporty exterior by acclaimed designer Francesco Paszkowski. “This new yacht, our first 58 meters, is the result of years of collaboration between the Paszkowski studio and Tankoa,” Tankoa president Eva Orsi said in a statement.
The vessel was sold in 2021 to an experienced owner already with one Tankoa to their name. The seafarer was seeking “extended ocean voyages and unrivaled luxury,” according to the yard. “I am proud of this project, which represents an evolution from the owner’s previous 50-meter yacht Binta D’Or,” adds Orsi. “Its timeless design combined with cutting-edge solutions is the result of teamwork between client, designers, and shipyard, blending elegance and functionality.”
Diamond Binta features a sleek aluminum superstructure and a robust steel hull that will slice through waves. A true go-anywhere explorer, the yacht has an impressive range of 5,000 nautical miles and could comfortably cruise from Italy to the U.S. in one go.
The interior, penned by designer Margherita Casprini, combines neutral hues with high-end materials and contemporary furnishings. The elegant owner’s suite and five generous guest cabins are positioned on the lower deck, with a unique “panoramic corridor” providing seafarers with direct access to the beach area. The corridor also allows guests to appreciate all the high-tech machinery in the viewable engine room.
Geared toward relaxation and recreation, the exterior decks offer plenty of amenities. The flybridge is outfitted with a gym and a swimming pool, while the aft deck sports a beach club with fold-down terraces and a spa. As for toys, the foredeck can store your chopper, while the generous garage can hold a 30-foot limo and one other tender.
