ETERNAL SPARK Wins Best Yacht Over 40 Meters at the Design et al Elite Awards
ETERNAL SPARK has once again proven her status as one of the finest charter vessels on the seas. At the prestigious Design et al Elite Awards, she was named Best Yacht Over 40 Meters, securing her fourth consecutive award this year. This triumph follows two major wins at the Yacht & Aviation Awards 2025 and the highly respected Robb Report Best of the Best recognition — a streak few yachts in her class can match.
For guests considering a yacht charter, this award is a powerful endorsement of ETERNAL SPARK’s ability to deliver not just on design and engineering, but on the ultimate guest experience.
A Legacy of Wins
Since her launch in 2024, ETERNAL SPARK has been turning heads across the globe. Her journey through the awards circuit began with a double victory at the Yacht & Aviation Awards 2025, followed by the Robb Report Award that celebrated her standout design details.
Now, with the Design et al Elite Award for Best Yacht Over 40 Meters, she has added another jewel to her crown, triumphing even against formidable competition from Benetti.
A Story from the Ceremony
The Design et al Elite Awards ceremony was a night filled with anticipation and celebration. When ETERNAL SPARK’s name was announced as the winner, the room erupted in applause.

The moment became even more memorable when designers from Hot Lab entered the stage, a genuine reflection of the passion and collaboration behind the yacht.
Enrico Lumini, Head of Design at Hot Lab, was present to personally acknowledge the award. Speaking to the audience, he said:
“ETERNAL SPARK represents a perfect harmony between design vision and guest experience. Every detail was conceived to elevate life at sea — and it is deeply rewarding to see that effort recognised by the industry.”
What Sets ETERNAL SPARK Apart
At nearly 50 meters in length and just under 500 GT, ETERNAL SPARK is part of the Bilgin 163 series, designed and built by Turkish shipyard Bilgin Yachts. Unique Yacht Design sculpted her elegant exterior lines, while Hot Lab created interiors that blend sophistication with comfort.

Inside, she accommodates up to 12 guests in 6 cabins, highlighted by a full-beam master suite with its own study and dual en suite bathrooms.
A glass-walled sundeck jacuzzi, a beach club with sauna, and a sky lounge convertible into a cinema make her a standout choice for those seeking the ultimate yacht charter. Expansive decks, outdoor lounges, and bars add to her social appeal, while her refined finishes and smart use of space elevate her to a class of her own.
Stiff Competition
Defeating a Benetti in the same category underscores the magnitude of this win. Benetti, with its rich legacy, is a benchmark in superyacht building. That ETERNAL SPARK triumphed reflects her holistic excellence — not just innovative design, but also flawless execution, creative use of volume, and the ability to deliver an experience far beyond expectations.

Though she remains under 500 GT, she offers the proportions, comfort, and feel of a much larger yacht, a fact that impressed both judges and industry peers.
Looking Ahead
With four consecutive awards, ETERNAL SPARK is a trailblazer for modern superyacht design. Her success is also a testament to the collaboration between Bilgin Yachts, Unique Yacht Design, and Hot Lab, whose combined vision has produced a vessel that continues to inspire admiration across the industry.

ETERNAL SPARK’s streak of awards has raised the bar not only for her builders and designers but also for the entire yachting world. Admired in the press, at ceremonies, and through unforgettable yacht charter vacations, she has already set a new benchmark in her category.
ETERNAL SPARK has once again proven that when design ingenuity, engineering excellence, and luxury appointments come together, the results are truly extraordinary.
