Boasting all the ICON yacht brand features, such as the deep luxury beach club with full transom swim platform and 295 sqm of fully customizable luxury spaces as well as the smart integration of service and technical spaces, motor yacht Icon 53m is already attracting wide interest.  Having received such positive feedback about the tender garage / anchor handling space, ICON decided to include a similar setup in the 50+ meter platform.
