Introducing the Juno: A 106m Crossover Yacht Concept

Dixon Yacht Design, a leading UK-based company, recently unveiled an impressive 106.4m crossover concept yacht named "Juno." This exceptional superyacht's design aims to "harmonize the best of motor yachts and sailing vessels," offering both the classic features of a sailing ship and the functionality and facilities found in similarly-sized motor yachts.

Juno's Propulsion System: A Blend of Innovation and Eco-friendliness

The Juno is equipped with a DynaRig sail system that can be operated single-handedly. The primary means of propulsion will be wind power, and two electric energy recovery turbines will further enhance the yacht's eco-friendly design.

Luxurious Accommodation: Comfort Meets Style

The four-deck Juno can accommodate up to 20 guests, with one deck entirely dedicated to the owner. It features eight guest cabins and a 17.5m owner's cabin. Although the interior design is owner's choice, initial renderings showcase a modern main salon adorned with understated velvet furniture, marble feature walls, and a built-in niche bar. The salon leads to a beach bar at the stern and a 8m-long swimming pool.

Leisure Facilities: Adding to the Experience

The tri-deck Juno promises a range of leisure facilities, including a cinema, sauna, gym, and beach club. The open design of the stern, extendable swim platform, and side-opening shell doors contribute to a spacious feel in the beach club.

The superyacht also envisages a tender platform, directly accessible from the main deck, and capable of storing a 10m luxury sports tender and a 10m sports boat.

Performance: Speed and Efficiency

The Juno is expected to reach a speed of up to 23 knots. It serves as the "root" of the crossover series by Dixon Yacht Design, which includes the 33m "Mini Juno," the "Juno GT" under 500GT, and the 72m "Juno JR."
