The Onika yacht, designed by Delta Marine, was constructed to cross the seas powerfully, in luxury and grace. The in-house team that works for Delta spent countless hours planning and outlining designs for the best layouts and exterior points. It is a truly unique vessel that shows skillful craftsmanship and a savvy technical advantage. It seems like a true gentleman’s yacht, with warmth and a home-like feel alongside humble sophistication. The hull and superstructure boast flowing lineage and soft shapes throughout, complemented by definitive white neutral livery. There are three decks, as there typically are within modern designs, with extensive gangways and good sized covered areas. Outside there are plenty of choices for owners and guests alike, depending on the mood and weather. Toward the back of the main deck there are dining and lounge areas. The sun deck is a full scale modern outdoor living space that is partially enclosed by the hard top, completed with forward facing couches and a pleasant observation area. The sun bathing area even has lounge chairs, sun beds, and an outdoor shower space. The interior reminds the guests of a cozy home environment reminiscent of refined vintage designs and furnishings, diversified with a few modern luxuries. There is a bit of a mix between the British West Indies and an Edwardian style that creates a relaxing, stress-free environment for those on board. Different woods are used throughout, creating more aesthetic appeal from room to room; chestnut burl, mahogany, spessart oak, and anigre and teak are just a few. Stone and glasswork are encased with the fittings and shows a type of ageless elegance.The Onika: An Elegant Design
The walls of the owner’s suite (low and amidships) and the private guest area have panels of clear German spessart oak and the furnishings are a mixture of other fine woods. All ceilings have beams painted white and feature light fabric panels. Rich reds, blues, and greens fill the rest of the area. The shower areas have heated marble floors and the stone reaches up to the wooden paneling. In the sky lounge on the upper deck there is a casual guest space for all to enjoy. The natural lighting allows the yacht to show off her beauty in a flattering way. There is a bar and cabinet that were intricately creates for the space, along with soft, casual furniture to get cozy on. The mix of traditional and natural materials makes for an inviting space and all feel comfortable enjoying it, along with the atmosphere. The large windows let light flow through, making the colors used in the area stand out among the wood grain.
The Onika: Perfection at Sea
The designers were given severe stipulations for the creation of this magnificent vessel, and they really fit everything in perfectly, despite the difficulty of the challenge at hand. The size, the interior, the exterior, and the yacht as a whole are really spectacular. The Onika has many characteristics that larger yachts boast about, but it is all rolled into a smaller, more convenient package.
