ARCANE ERA and NOVA - RMK MARINE FOR SALE

Arcane Era and Arcane Nova are two new 55-metre luxury superyacht concepts from RMK Yachts, crafted with Espen Oeino International and Giorgio Cassetta.

Built on a shared technical platform yet presenting two distinct stylistic identities, the Arcane duo reimagines life at sea for owners today. Generous exterior volumes and fluid indoor-outdoor flow characterise both motor yachts, from the 180-square-metre aft-deck Piazza® and the forward-facing Piazzetta® to the wraparound Love Nest® lookout and the expansive RMK Jumbo Deck®. Under 500 GT, every area is shaped to heighten comfort, practicality and constant dialogue with the water.

Arcane Era delivers a more enduring, classic take on the vision, while Arcane Nova unveils RMK Yachts’ new design vocabulary and a more progressive layout, highlighted by an expansive sundeck. Driven by the Volvo Penta IPS Professional Platform, with ICE propulsion and hybrid alternatives respectively, the pair marries cutting-edge engineering, outstanding volume and singular style to present buyers two persuasive readings of the next generation of 55-metre motor superyachts.

Key features

At 55 metres and below 500 GT, this yacht delivers exceptional volume and an intelligent use of space within a sub-500 GT platform. A 20‑metre‑long aft deck flows into a beach club to create one continuous indoor–outdoor living environment. Propulsion is by the Volvo Penta IPS Professional Platform, a compact and efficient architecture, with Arcane Era configured for ICE power and Arcane Nova conceived around a hybrid solution. Her head‑turning, powerful profile is by Espen Øino. The interior offers a six‑cabin layout, including four cabins on the Main Deck and a full‑beam VIP cabin, while net deck heights reach 2.20 metres on the Main Deck and Upper Deck.
