Designed by the prestigious UK design firm Dubois Naval Architects, the beautiful 47-metre motor yacht Loretta Anne was named ‘Motoryacht of the Year’ at the recent World Superyacht Awards, presented by Boat International Media. In addition, luxury yacht Loretta Anne won in the category of ‘Raised Pilothouse Semi-displacement Motor Yacht’.

Built by Alloy Yachts, New Zealand, the Dubois-designed Loretta Anne yacht is the 22nd large Dubois-designed/Alloy-built yacht to launch and she takes full advantage of the combined experience and the first-rate build quality of the shipyard.
As the designers, Dubois has succeeded in combining excellent seakeeping with an efficient hull and attractive, timeless looks.

As is usual with all Dubois designs, Dubois was responsible for the naval architecture and outboard styling of superyacht Loretta Anne. Donald Starkey Designs finished the interior in the ‘Bahamas beach house’ style requested by the owner.
Loretta Anne is the 11th motoryacht of over 30 metres that Dubois has designed. Probably known primarily as sailboat designers, to win this ‘Best Motor Yacht’ award is particularly gratifying. Dubois delights in the challenge of marrying seaworthiness with practicality and good looks in its motoryacht designs; the same priorities that the studio applies to their wind driven sisters.

Interesting features include the vertical bridge screen of superyacht Loretta Anne, which is both practical and contemporary and, unusually for a two and a half deck yacht, the galley is on the main deck.
The owner and friends, who were in attendance at the Awards Ceremony, were overjoyed with the recognition the Loretta Anne yacht received. An experienced owner, she was heavily involved in the design and features for the latest superyacht Loretta Anne.
