Dutch builder, Wim van der Valk, has recently completed construction of the 27,2m (89’24’’) motor yacht ‘The Next Episode’. Luxury superyacht ‘The Next Episode’ belongs to the Continental III series, that the shipyard has developed in collaboration with Guido de Groot Design, who have been the designers of both her interior as well as exterior.

The design of luxury yacht ‘The Next Episode’ is contemporary and spacious. Her main deck features an al fresco dining area next to the main salon. She also has a professional galley which can be opened up or closed off from view depending on the social setting. The master cabin is sited on the main deck ahead of the raised pilothouse. The lower deck accommodates the owner’s party of up to 8 guests in 4 comfortable staterooms including 2 VIP cabins and 2 guest cabins. She also has accommodation for up to 3 crew members.

Powered by 3 Volvo Penta (IPS-1200) 900hp diesel engines, super yacht ‘The Next Episode’ is capable of a 25 knots top speed. A fuel tank capacity of 11,500 liters (diesel), and fresh water tank capacity of 2000 liters, ensures that this yacht has a good cruising range.
One of the salient features of the 27m ‘The Next Episode’ yacht is her extraordinary sound system. Integrated into the design, the main salon is equipped with six surround speakers and two sub-woofers with colossal output capacities. The Fohhn surround speakers have a maximum power rating of 600 watts each. These in combination with the two 800 watt sub-woofers allow the system to produce an incredibly rich sound. Guido de Groot Design have integrated the specific acoustic requirements into the interior design at an early phase. The stainless steel CNC-cut grille and the custom finish for the two Fohhn subwoofers fit the interior design perfectly.
