Guido de Groot Design is presently working on a complete makeover for the classic charter yacht SYLVIANA (ex Ragazza, Hiba, Aruba II).  Originally constructed by CRN Ancona in Italy in 1979, superyacht SYLVIANA will undergo a major refit that will comprise a 4-metre aft extension. This will bring the vessel to a length of nearly 40 meters.

In addition to gaining length, luxury yacht SYLVIANA will receive a new modified superstructure forward on the main deck, an extended bridge deck lounge, and a completely new upper sun deck.

A main focus of the SYLVIANA yacht project was to increase ceiling heights onboard the vessel and the capacity to store larger tenders.  Subsequently, the yacht will benefit from plenty of newly created recreational and sunbathing space.

From a design aesthetic, the lines of luxury charter yacht SYLVIANA have been brought up-to-date without neglecting her classic heritage and associative style that is appreciated by so many people.
