Palmer Johnson has introduced a stunning new concept that pushes the boundaries of performance, elegance, and innovation. The 72-metre SuperSport Mega-Yacht, constructed from carbon fibre and designed as part of the SuperSport series, marks a radical departure from traditional yacht architecture.
A Bold Vision in Carbon Fibre
The SuperSport concept boasts a crisp, muscular silhouette featuring haunches, a reverse bow, and a seamless carbon fibre body seemingly sculpted without a single flat surface. These striking design elements ensure not just dynamic aesthetics, but also enhanced stability and efficiency. The result is a yacht positioned as “faster, more efficient, more stable and more spacious” — a bold claim that Palmer Johnson delivers through painstaking design and engineering.

Interior Highlights That Redefine Luxury

A Fusion of Design and Technology
Crafting this concept required an inventive blend of form and function. The lightweight carbon fibre construction provides performance advantages without compromising guest comfort. The yacht’s imaginative layouts—like a spacious winter garden and oversized entertainment decks—highlight the increasing demand for privacy, versatility, and technological sophistication in superyacht design.
