Luca Dini Design & Architecture proudly celebrates the technical launch of M/Y Rose, the first model in Tankoa Yachts' new Sportiva Line, introduced in June 2021.

Stretching 55 meters, M/Y Rose is the embodiment of forward-thinking design, combining aerodynamically sleek lines with a dynamic, sophisticated aesthetic. Its exterior, shaped by Luca Dini Design & Architecture, is defined by flowing, sculptural surfaces that enhance both performance and visual harmony.

Signature features that define character and comfort

55 meters of pure experience — under 500 GT
M/Y Rose strikes a perfect balance between volume and versatility. At 55 meters in length and under 500 gross tones, it offers an expansive onboard experience while ensuring smooth handling and navigational flexibility.

A bow that makes a statement
A hallmark of innovation, the bow features a distinctive design that marries traditional vertical elegance with modern lines. The tender's unconventional placement on the bow integrates function and form in a bold stylistic choice.

Wellness with a view
Relaxation takes center stage with two panoramic Jacuzzis. One crowns the owner's private terrace for ultimate seclusion, while the second — a full-beam Jacuzzi — invites guests to unwind in the open air, framed by breathtaking sea views.

The Nemo Room: a window to another world
Positioned just above the waterline, the window of the Nemo Room are semi-submerged, designed for a truly immersive marine experience. This exclusive interior space connects guests directly to the sea, where light, movement, and horizon blend into a single sensory landscape.

Luca Dini, founder and CEO of Luca Dini Design & Architecture, commented: "The Tankoa T55 Sportiva is a perfect balance between elegance and performance, where every line and surface is crafted to enhance both form and function. She's a yacht that feels effortlessly dynamic — sleek, light, and in constant dialogue with the sea".

The launch of M/Y Rose marks a new chapter in the evolution of Tankoa Yachts — one defined by innovation, sophistication, and a deep reverence for the art of yacht design. Luca Dini Design & Architecture is honored to contribute to this vision, helping redefine the boundaries of contemporary luxury.

Gianluca Poerio, CEO of Tankoa Yachts, added: "With the Sportiva Line, Tankoa introduces a new interpretation of modern luxury — more aerodynamic and sportier, with clean, elegant lines that celebrate both speed and style".

Now entering the final outfitting phase at Tankoa Yachts, M/Y Rose is set to begin sea trials ahead of her world premiere at the Monaco Yacht Show 2025 — where she will debut as a bold new icon in the world of high-end yachting.
