W
ith its headquarters in landlocked Liechtenstein,
the Soraya brand of yachts is rapidly becoming
a major force in the world of luxury yachting,
with two stunning designs, the Soraya 46 and the new
Soraya 70 to its name, the former of which is well on its
way to completion.
The Soraya yachts are being built by Gentech Yachts
Ltd., a subsidiary of Gentech Ltd., a highly successful
international corporation with businesses in a number of
fields, including business aviation, real estate development,
engineering and fashion retail. With expertise in cuttingedge innovation and technology and with more than 15
years of personal experience in yachting, Gentech is
dedicated to setting new standards for its range of 21st
century mega yachts. Built to Gentech’s stringent quality
standards at the firm’s modern shipyard conveniently
located in the duty-free zone near Antalya in Turkey, the
Soraya range of yachts is the impressive result of years
of planning and a worldwide collaboration of leading
designers, suppliers and contractors.
Carefully selected teams of skilled and experienced
staff are working in close collaboration with expert
supervisors and project managers from Europe and the
USA. All the suppliers and sub-contractors were chosen
from renowned and experienced companies, many of
which have been involved in building some of the world’s
most famous mega yachts.

SORAYA 70
Like the Soraya 46 that is currently under construction,
the Soraya 70 superyacht is another collaboration between
Soraya Yachts and the Uniellé design studio led by Jure
Bukavec. A 70m full displacement mega yacht with a 13m
beam, the Soraya 70 has similar, yet highly distinctive
styling when compared with her little sister the Soraya 46.
Aggressive, dynamic and modern, her elegant lines are
contrasted by a vertical glass section amidships.
With three decks, two spacious public salons each
with over 3m in headroom, her full height windows allow
an abundance of natural light to enter inside. At the stern
there is a large 6m infinity pool overlooking the sea. A
folding stern door lowers to provide the yacht with a huge
swimming platform or beach deck.
Like the Soraya 46, the Soraya 70 also has a
helipad positioned on the bow, which at over 10m wide,
allows for the safe and comfortable landing of many
types of helicopter. With wonderfully spacious interior
accommodation, one major feature of the yacht is the
private owner’s deck complete with its own outdoor
terrace.
Without doubt a graceful and stylish motor yacht,
the Soraya 70 will offer her owner an ideal combination
of state-of-the-art design, high quality construction and
elegant style.

SORAYA 46
The first Soraya yacht to be designed by the Uniellé
design studio led by Jure Bukavec, the Soraya 46’s
exterior is without doubt a real eye-catcher. Ultra-modern
yet elegant, she exudes an eclectic mixture of timeless
elegance and an impressive high-tech naval appearance.
The Soraya 46’s spacious layout is comfortable and
well-designed for both private family holidays and charter
commitments and is well laid out for special corporate
or entertaining events, with crew operational paths and
accommodation located completely separately from the
guest facilities.
With her multi-functional and generous layout, the
Soraya 46 offers both privacy and expansive social areas
for owner and guests alike. Throughout her spacious and
elegantly furbished decks, guests will be able to enjoy a
wide variety of activities as well as enjoying a peaceful
and relaxing time onboard.
The main deck features the yacht’s main salon and
dining areas, which are furnished according to the owner’s
exact requirements. Built with full height windows for
panoramic views, the main salon will be bathed in a
profusion of natural light and furnished luxuriously.
The upper deck of the yacht offers additional areas
for socialising and entertaining, capable of hosting twelve
guests for al-fresco dining with sweeping panoramic
views.
A large, wonderfully furnished upper deck salon
is perfectly suited for both corporate events and private
parties. There is a second cocktail bar located here, with
separate seating areas and a superb audio/video system,
suitable for everything from sales presentations to simply
providing background music.
Above the upper deck, the sun deck is the sun-lover’s
paradise. A 2.3m Jacuzzi is surrounded with large sun
loungers and will certainly be a popular area of the yacht
all day, and well into the night. Guests will also find a well
equipped wet-bar on this deck - a must in such a popular
socialising location. Above the sun deck, the large radar
arch supports a vast sun awning, which in turn provides
the shade for the sun deck dining and socialising area.
A truly modern yacht, the launch of the first Soraya
46 is certain to be eagerly awaited by yacht owners
worldwide.
