KENSHO yacht
Kensho is a superyacht
built by Admiral Yachts. She measures 246ft and took six
years to create, from 2016 when the initial foundations
were laid through to her delivery and debut at the
Monaco Yacht Show in 2022. Her flowing lines and
green-blue metallic paint inspired by a Ford Mustang
color from the 1960s are eye-catching, but it was her
owner-driven attributes that tipped the scales for the
judges who named Motor Yacht of the Year at the World
Superyacht Awards. A secret ballot by the independent
panel of judges revealed she was the winner by a healthy
margin, chosen from among the eight individual winners
of the Semi-Displacement and Displacement Motor Yacht
classes.
Kenshō’s diesel-electric
propulsion system with twin azimuth drives draws their
exact power needs from five variable-speed generators to
help minimize her footprint. M/Y Kenshō's innovative
propulsion system gave her the “ECO” notation of the
Classification Body.
Kensho means “seeing one’s true nature” in Japanese. The
owner visited around 100 of the world's landmark yachts
to draw up a list of what he wanted in the vessel: high
deckheads and minimal side decks; efficient interaction
between crew and guests; large, calming volumes; and no
main saloon. Designers at Azure Yacht Design and Naval
Architecture and Archineers Berlin developed the naval
architecture and exterior design.
Nature is a theme that is
seen continuously throughout Kensho. Her exterior is
said to represent the curves of a pebble shaped by the
forces of nature over time, while the stairs of the pool
deck have been designed to look like they were carved
out by the sea. The same feeling is captured inside too
thanks to Parisian design studio Jouin Manku, who
created a palette of soft natural tones in leather,
teak, metal and glass – it was the studio's first
yachting project.
Kensho has state-of-the-art features such as a single
crew corridor and gangways only on upper deck –
optimizing the volume for luxury guest areas. Full
height glass where possible and lowered bulwarks are the
ingredients for mesmerizing outboard views. The elegant
and soft exterior lines embrace all the purest forms of
functionality. No exterior item has been compromised to
make room for the technical outfitting of the yacht. Her
unparalleled organic shapes seem to come from an
unexplored underwater world.
Patrick Jouin and Sanjit Manku designed Kensho’s
interiors by posing some fundamental questions that
challenge naval tradition. Generous high ceilings,
panoramic views, intelligent and modular configurations
that adapt to enhance space, intimacy and comfort.
Spread across four decks, the stylish interior is
characterized by “smooth and organic shapes” and natural
materials. Most notably, studio cofounder Sanjit Manku
eschewed a conventional yachting layout in favor of
high-volume spaces and vast sea views. The team also
moved the engines to a special “tank” deck to create
more space for guest cabins and amenities. Noble
materials are artfully transformed into rounded
and organic forms. Teak, marble, onyx, silk, wool,
bronze and glass - a diverse material palette deployed
in a deeply personal and poetic expression of design.
Admiral Kenshō also was awarded for “Best Interior
Design, Motor Yachts” in the “500GT and above” category
at the Boat International 2023 Design & Innovation
Awards.
Kensho redefines
the boundaries of space, distribution and luxury
on superyachts. She is the emblem of something
new, personal, and revolutionary. Kensho
integrates the best ideas of residential design
and marine design to create a new quality of
life at sea.
